Location is perfect as Metro station just infront of the hotel for easy going around the city, the tain station is a walking distance. The hotel is located on the main shopping street. The natural musem is withing walking distance. The quality of the food in the restaurant is not good, we had our dinner of the first night at the resturant on the 6th floor and it was not worth the money we paid.

The included buffet breakfast was really good. As well, the location of the hotel, right next to shops & the metro was excellent.

It is atleast 1 km from the the Milan Train Station. It was not about me liking the hotel. I had mentioned in my reqeust that travelling with 12 yr old child. They should have already blocked the room accordingly for 2 adults n 1 extra bed for the child. The receptionist was adament for charging the extra bed at an exorbent amount & I agreed. We got the key of the room but the room was an occupied room and the other guest was not happy. When informed about this, they took it very lightly & made me and my family wait for 1 hour another room (made me see 3 different rooms). My question is when they do not have a room with 1 King Bed & an extra bed can be fitted in that room - they should not sell it. Very uncorfortable stay. Want to have a refund for my first night as they did not even provide us the extra bed which the receptionist was arguing about at the first place to charge. Told them next morning that they did not place the extra bed in the room. Very poor service and follow up.

Excellent Location, cleanliness, Hotel staff 1) Even on the 5th floor in the room we heard metro vibration... Not too loud, but... 2) too hard to get fresh fruit on breakfast. too little for residents. 3) on receptin , first time in my life (I often stay in different hotels, 4-5 * in different countries) they asked me to leave deposit for room - 100 euro. deposit was for possible harm for room :) we entered the room. it was good, but for what was deposit, we did not understand... even now... 4) swimming-pool is free, but water is awfully cold.

I came to the hotel by night and from the first impression, I liked the design & the location which is near to everywhere, located at the heart of the medium & high end of fashion brands, Resturants, Cafes and the valued point is the hotel is surrouneded by all transportations like the 3 lines of the underground a few meters from the hotel enterance covering most of the Milan areas, also about 1 km from the train central station. Only I need to mention 2 points. First the house keeping need to follow a check list to cover all the missing items at the room like foam bath, shampoo,tea bags other than they very good in cleaning. The 2nd point is the staff at the resturant need to give more attention to welcome & smile other than they perfect at everything. They are complaints but remarks.

Good location, walking distance from central Station with metro station outside hotel to go into city. Excellent breakfast as reviewed previously even had gluten free items. Staff led by David were helpful. Local restaurants . We recommend The Kitchen on via Scarlatti best value in the area. Hotel staff were helpful particularly in providing train times for our trips to the Lakes. We travelled to Como from station Nord as recommended by Matteo reception staff, had a boat trip to Bellagio and then across to Varenna and a good value meal at cafe Il Molo before catching the train back to Milan. An excellent day out. We also caught the express to Lugano for a day by the lake in Switzerland. One member of staff on the desk was very rude on our last day when we were leaving. I asked for times of the coach back to Linate Airport and he insisted he lived in Milan and that there was no such service. (Even though I told him we had arrived by this.) When I mentioned the company he then provided the information without any apology whilst other staff were friendly. A bad end to an enjoyable stay in Milan.

The Hotel was very clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. Good selection of food at breakfast. The gym and swimming pool facilities were very very poor. The pool was more of a dipping pool than a swimming pool. And the information on the site claimed that the hotel was near the Duomo; it tales 30 minutes on foot to get to the Duomo and thats walking fast!!! This really disappointed us because we booked the hotel on this basis; huge disappointment!!

Lovely hotel,good big room, safe, mini bar + kettle in room tho' disappeared one day! Friendly staff, great choice for breakfast plus pool a bonus on wet day! Location, within walking distance from Centrale Station, 10-15min. Train or bus from Malpensa Airport to Centrale Station. Metro Station, Lima (Red Line) just outside hotel so easy access to city centre. E4-50 for day ticket(24hours). Trip to Como, train from Cadorna Station( red line) every hour via Monza too, worthwhile for day, + funicular railway or boat trip on lake.

The breakfast buffet is great, the spa and facilities are small but good enough. The location is a 15+ minute from the main Cathedral and downtown sites, but the walk is down Buenos Aires street which is one of the main cheaper shopping streets, so the walk to town works out well if you are into shopping whilst in Milan. Beware, they take a 100 cash deposit from you when you arrive, this is in spite of the fact that I had 100% paid for two rooms more than 2 weeks in advance. They said it was "in case you break anything" which for a supposed 4 star hotel is pretty cheap behaviour.

The hotel was very central. Good buffet breakfast. Found a gem of a restaurant just off the main drag - Columbie - great food and very reasonably priced which is unusual for Italy. Max, the barman, was excellent. Reception staff not over friendly. Restaurant a let down - more like a canteen and whilst the food was of a good standard in the evening, there was no atmosphere.

My handbag was stolen at the Terrazzo restaurant at breakfast on my first day... I was devastated... The hotel staff were very helpful in accompanying me to the police station as I do not speak Italian... My i phone was in the handbag so I was unable to make phone calls, and I had no access from the phone in the hotel room to make international calls to my husband in Sydney, I was told at reception to make calls from the public phone box outside the hotel...This is not acceptable from a 4 star hotel
