“Short stay in Milan”

Spent a night here in late May as part of a four-day trip to Italy. We had flown into Malpensa Airport and had taken the train, planning to then walk from Milano Centrale to the hotel. The train was unfortunately running late and finished earlier at Porto Garibaldi station- this was a 20 minute walk to the hotel, and as it was a pleasant evening we decided to walk the final distance. Once we arrived we were checked in quickly and given the card key to our room. We were located on the third floor with a view out on to an internal courtyard in the hotel. We were told at reception that we were being an upgraded room, and it certainly felt like it had recently been refurbished. It was a small room, but had a good size bed and sufficient storage space. There was a fridge provided but no tea or coffee making facilities, and a safe which we did not make use of. There was also a large wide screen TV with a wide range of local and international channels, including BBC One from the UK which surprised us. The bathroom was also compact but had a good quality shower and ample storage space for toiletries. Wi-Fi was provided, but for some reason it would not recognise the surname and room number combination needed to log in- we went to reception to resolve this, and they straight away gave us a code for 24-hour access. The hotel has a restaurant, but we instead ate out for dinner. There are a lot of restaurants and bars within walking distance, and this is quite a buzzy part of Milan. Upon returning to our room from dinner there was some noise from the internal courtyard as other guests were having drinks, but by midnight this had quietened down and we both slept well. The next morning we chose not to have breakfast in the hotel (available for 14 Euros per person) and instead decided to find somewhere near the Duomo. It was very easy to get there on the historic Tram Line 1, which has a stop very close to the hotel on Viale Tunisia. We returned a few hours later and checked out for the next part of our trip. We found the hotel a very convenient place for a night's stay in Milan, and though the room was on the small size it was fine for the short time we stayed there.

“Clean hotel”

The hotel was clean, staff was friendly and the location is walking distance to the train station and duomo. I wish the room was bigger, it was a bit small.

“Ğreat staff, restaurant and location”

Initially we were given a room on the noisiest side of the hotel, and were unable to sleep on the first night.

Initially we were given a room on the noisiest side of the hotel, and were unable to sleep on the first night. This was even though I had asked on my initial booking, and online checking in for a quiet room However, they completely redeemed themselves with the way the complaint was dealt with, moving us to a quiet room without any quibble. The staff at this hotel are all lovely and a credit to the hotel. the food we had in the restaurant was the nicest food on the whole trip and again the staff in the restaurant are great The rooms are basic but very clean which for me is the most important thing in a basic hotel This hotel cost was reasonable for a stay in Milan in a central location
