Concerning hyperbolic diffeomorphisms, one expects a better smoothness of linearization, but it may be confined by resonance among eigenvalues. Hartman gave a three-dimensional analytic mapping with resonance which cannot be linearized by a Lipschitz conjugacy. Since then, efforts have been made to give the ${\it\alpha}$-Hölder continuity of the conjugacy and hope the exponent ${\it\alpha}<1$ can be as large as possible. Recently, it was proved for some weakly resonant hyperbolic diffeomorphisms that ${\it\alpha}$ can be as large as we expect. In this paper we prove that this result holds for all $C^{\infty }$ weakly resonant hyperbolic diffeomorphisms.
