High levels of street noise, nesting birds & no AirCon (in June!). This hotel looks great in the photographs, and first impressions are not bad. The hotel is smaller than it appears in the photos and whoever took the photo of the lobby picked the most flattering angle. The rooms are clean and well decorated, but they are compact. However,...

There are two things that make this otherwise average hotel getting a poor rating from me. The double room is extremely small leaving no space to move around. The double bed however, is large for even 3 non-caucasian adults. The toilet is weird in its design. The shower area is very cramped with hardly any space to give yourself a... More

Well, yes: the Idea Hotel Milano centrale is well located, close to the Central Station; and the room is very clean, the staff at the front desk is willing to help, and the breakfast is quite a good one. But this is the very first time I step into an Italian hotel which has no bidet in the bathroom, and... More

I stopped over in this hotel, on my way to a further destination, while traveling by train. Perfect location, a few strides away from the Milan Central Station. If you are looking for a boutique hotel, you would be badly disappointed by the size of the rooms. Just think of it as a super-luxurious train sleeper: twice as large, twice... More

A mid- level hotel located in a "hotel street" very close to the main railway station where also the airport shuttle buses end/start from. Convenient for rail travellers. Customers in cars seemed to have some hassles finding street parking since this is inner city Milano. Modern style hotel, clean room, a little on the smallish side. Bed deserves better madrass....

The hotel lies in a very good location because it is reachable by foot in 2 mins. from Milan Central Station and offers an affordable price, however apart from that there are no other points of merit. The rooms are unbelievably small, so small that you cannot even walk around the bed and it's a challenge to enter with your... More

The hotel is just five minutes walk from the Milan main train station, one minutes walk to MacDonald and small room but for me is fine, I just for sleep. Clean and have basic equipment in the room. Basic Breakfast but is fine. If you just for transist or shopping trip, this hotel is best choice.
