The hotel is located in a vibrant area of Milan with shops and restaurants, in abundance. The M1 metro line station is conveniently situated a few steps away. The staff are friendly and helpful and speak very good English! Like many older Italian hotels, the rooms have character and are adorned with marble bathrooms. The room was spacious with a large bed, fridge and safe. In contrast, the dining room on the top floor was modern with floor to ceiling glass doors. The breakfast catered for all tastes, with a selection of hot dishes, cold meats, fruits and pastries. A nice little touch, was the marshmallow treats in reception!
