Please keep in mind that Milan is
an expensive place to stay. If you can afford more, we also list more
expensive and
de luxe hotels.
Ariosto ***
Situated halfway between FieraMilanoCity and the city center, it is housed in an old mansion converted into a hotel in 1969 and has undergone a makeover in the last few years. Don't expect loads of space, but it has all the features to make your stay comfortable. The 48 rooms and 3 suites, some of them overlooking a tiny garden with birch trees, are modernly furnished. There is a lovely Art Nouveau staircase. Bikes to rent, Internet point.
Corso Genova ***
An oasis of calm on a green side-street off the Navigli canals and just a stone's throw from the Roman San Lorenzo columns, where many bars and venues are located. Modern building and décor (just the lift happens to be out of service quite often), friendly staff. Ask for a room with a view (the Duomo). Restaurants, pizzerias and shopping within walking distance.
London **
Small, old-established hotel, very central but in a quiet street, halfway between the Duomo and the Castle and a stone's throw to the Piccolo Teatro. Good value for money rooms.
Mennini ***
Close to the central railway station, the décor is modern and rooms have air conditioning. Colorful breakfast room and friendly reception.
Montebianco ***
A pleasant villa, located in a quiet area within walking distance of FieraMilanoCity and handy for San Siro Stadium. Its bedrooms and most of the premises were recently renovated. Conference rooms available.
Trentina **
Just a handful of rooms for this quiet, family-run hotel overlooking a green square. Within walking distance to the underground (line 1 and 2) and handy to the Central Station.
Zurigo ***
Small - starting from the entrance which may make you doubt it's a hotel at all - it is specially recommended for cycling enthusiasts and other environment-friendly individuals: the hotel offers its guests free use of a bike to get about town (Corso Italia is in the restricted traffic area, very close to the Duomo).
