Hotels near Monumento a Gaetano Negri in Milan

We visited the hotel for a weekend in September. The purpose of our visit was to explore Milan and to attend the Monza Grand Prix. The hotel is in a great location, a short taxi ride from the airport and within walking distance to two train stations and the centre of town. Check in and out was really quick and the staff were so frjendly and helpful. Our room was spacious and clean and really nicely decorated. The breakfast buffet was brilliant, lots of variety and high quality food. We also had a drink in the bar one evening and it was a good atmosphere, service and the drinks we ordered were made well. Overall we felt the hotel was excellent for 4 stars and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for luxury without breaking the bank.

If your looking for good value than seriously look elsewhere. We've been on a month trip to Italy and a week here has cost us more than a week in Naples, Rome, Lipari and all of those were 5 star hotels and MUCH nicer. Main issues: 1: They nickel and dime you for literally everything. Not only is the hotel extremely overpriced. Extremely small. Tiny bathroom. Extremely old, outdated rooms. Seriously I've stayed at 3 star hotels nicer and cheaper with more facilities than Hotel Cavour Milano. They wanted to charge us $120 Euros to book a taxi to the airport when a taxi from the airport to here last week cost us $27 Euros! Yes it's a hotel they need to make their margin. Yes there's booking fees. But 100 Euro?! Not to mention they charge $30 Euro to use the spa area even though they do not have a normal pool area and spa like every other hotel I've been to, and their spa area only has 1 steam room, 1 cold shower area and that's about it! Biggest waste of 30 Euros ever! 2: Staff friendliness. As soon as we arrived, we were not greeted. Every question you ask is met with the shortest abruptest minimal answer possible. Just yes, no. No explanation or details whatsoever. They really do not want to talk to you. You leave/enter the hotel, and they just look at you, no good day/evening or anything. I've never been to a motel where the staff do not greet you let alone a ”4 star” hotel. Not to mention the air conditioner is preset to turn off and lock itself to 23 whenever you leave the room so when you come back all sweaty and hot you have a nice hot room to greet you and have to manually adjust it and you cannot go below 21. Nickle and diming left, right, and center. Park Hyatt New York was less of a rip off and that was $1200 a night! Positives: 1: Room is well maintained and clean which is nice, but is that really a positive? Shouldn't that be expected? Towels and bathroom towels and toiletries were daily restocked which is more than I can say about the other hotels we stayed at in Rome and Naples, but again as above is that a positive or is that supposed to just be normal?

In Milan, I have also stayed at B&B Hotel Milano Cenisio Garibaldi, Hotel degli Arcimboldi, Lloyd Hotel, Hotel Pierre Milano, Hilton Milan & Mokinba Hotel King. My reviews, to compare, can be found on TripAdvisor. Pros: - Location: (Walking) Porta Nuova (6mins), Corso Como (8mins), Brera Art Gallery (15mins), Monumental Cemetery (17mins), The Fashion District (20mins). - Bathroom amenities: Soap bar, combined shampoo/body wash, shower cap, hairdryer. - Free in-room WiFi (average speed approx. 29Mbps). - Quiet at night. Cons: - Room design is rather impracticle: no chair with back if you need to work (only a pouf stool), small desk not deeper than a laptop, almost no storage spaces, very dimly lit, bright neon light for the keycard slot that you cannot disable during sleep, in-room safe not large enough for a tablet or laptop, no door on bathroom area (so if you travel with someone else, make sure you are comfortable seeing each other intimately). - Breakfast is quite odd and overpriced. Located in the reception area, you can see and overhear all the discussions with guests (or gossip among staff about guests, which we found rather unprofessional!). A set menu plate with no choice (so we had a lot of food wastage). No standard items, ie. no fruit yoghurt, no cereal, no pastries (only a mini donut and mini muffin), no fresh fruit, no hot food, savory items only a couple of slices of ham and cheese from a plastic supermarket packet. Same items every day, mainly bread-based. - Staff need more training for a 4-star hotel. Check-in was slow, used toiletries not replenished when cleaning rooms, unprofessional staff behaviour as mentioned above. - Quality of towels and toiletries very low (more suited to a 3-star hotel). - Many fire escape maps in the hallways are completely incorrect, wrong room numbers and wrong hallway designs. Unsure how these passed safety inspections.

I´m not sure how it is like to stay at Ostelzzz for several nights, but I find it a very convenient solution for me who arrived around midnight in Milan, and already had leave from Milano Centrale by noon on the next day. I had a proper sleep for one night in a capsule. It really was a hostel, but with so much better privacy. Staffs were extremely kind and helpful. They gave me a welcome drink. Online check-in in advance made my actual check-in so much easier. Had everything I needed, incl breakfast, towel too. Clean and well-organized. Breakfast was simple, but more than good enough for me. I wouln´t hesitate to choose Ostelzzz next time.

The location of the hotel is quite good, as the friends in front said, passing through a small garden to the most famous street, then the hotel's second promenade and cathedral. In addition, the S5 next to the hotel goes directly to the central station, and the airport bus is on the left side of the main entrance of the train station. There are still a lot of cars passing by at 9 or 10 in the evening, 8 euros a person. Let's talk about the hotel's facilities, clean, tidy, slippers, shampoo, shower gel, and even the toothbrush can be with the front desk. Every day, a bottle of water and a hot water bottle are available. Best of all, the hotel has a lot of restaurants on the way to the first intersection and then left to the three intersections. There are many local restaurants, and there is a 40 pizza e Cucina restaurant Pizza and Pasta. Almost all locals. There is a dessert shop next door, and its opposite side has an inconspicuous small food store (three local old mothers) to produce food is very recommended! The city tax of the hotel is 10 euros per room per night. There is no nonsense at the front desk. When we check in, it is a girl. When we check out, it is an uncle. It is very polite and quick to handle. We have questions to ask them, they They all answered in detail and decently, and did not encounter the situation of those friends who had said ”too talkable”. By the way, their beds and pillows are very comfortable, perfect for a comfortable night after a night of shopping. Of course, because there is a convenient tram in front of the hotel, there is a tram sound through the road, but there will be no car at night. There is also a bathtub when taking a bath. The glass door is relatively small and easy to splash out, but it can be avoided with caution, but the water is very large and the water temperature is very good. In short, it is the most comfortable of the four hotels we stayed in. In the area of RMB five or six hundred, this house facilities and the surrounding environment (oh, there is a big supermarket next to it, there is also a Carrefour express on the road), you can definitely give 5 points!

Service: Glam Hotel did not honour the booking but instead they put me up at Smart Hotel next door. Hence the review is on Smart Hotel. No explanation was given by Glam except that they had issues with their reservation system. My friends checked in 1 day earlier with no issues. Smart only provided body shower gel. No soap toothbrush etc.i also could not adjust the room temperature. It was hot. Room was clean though.

Go to the hotel to register at 19:00 and close the door. I came across the number that a kind-hearted handsome black guy had left me at the door of the hotel and said that he had arranged other hotels for me. I left the day before, and no one called me. The hotel also said it had notified me, nonsense. My mobile number is not an Italian number, so I contacted Ctrip immediately on the Internet. Ctrip responded quickly and immediately contacted the hotel, only to know that I would change to the Samsung Hotel, which is a three-minute walk from the Central Railway Station, and the room type would be upgraded for free. It was a chain of their group. But I booked this closed four-star hotel, which is located right between Central Station and Chinatown. Now I have to pay for the ticket again when I change it. At 20 o'clock in the evening, the current four-star hotel is too expensive, and Ctrip has a good attitude, so I went to arrange for Samsung. Fortunately, the room is large, there is a balcony, a safe, refrigerator, and a big TV. The bad thing is that the pillows are too high, the balcony opens to the windows of other rooms, and the TV does not have an English station, only an Italian station. The air conditioner is a bit cold and only covers a large sheet as a quilt.

From the point of view of the value of the value, this hotel is very qualified, very design sense, pat on the ins wind screen red photos, but for me who do not have strong photo needs, in many places it is not satisfactory In particular, in terms of hardware facilities: the kettle is broken (new after communication); the bathroom sink design has problems, it is easy to splash; the shower sewer is blocked (communication after communication) Health is decent, but not very clean; air conditioning is controlled by the hotel, perhaps adapted to European habits, the temperature is very low, and the noise is very high; the main control switch also has problems. The service aspect is still satisfactory, and it is very positive to solve the problem. However, during the travel, facing these episodes, it is necessary to constantly communicate, which is a waste of time and affects some moods~

We requested for high floor but was given ground floor which is just next to the street and it was really noisy. We couldn’t open the curtains or window as well. We did not complain as it was just a night stay and we were leaving early in the morning anyways. Mattress was quite hard and the pillow was quite soft for my liking. Room was quite small for 2 pax and 2 large luggage and it the design didn’t look like what we have booked but the room we have gotten still looks acceptable. The only thing I didn’t quite like was the bathroom floor. It was the same level as the bedroom. So as we showed, some of the water will flow into the bedroom. Other than that, it was a comfortable stay.

The hotel is very close to the train station, but the entrance is quite small, causing some difficulty in finding it. The breakfast on the top floor is excellent, and the rooms provide a view of the train station.
