Don't be discouraged by the unflattering photos of this perfectly located hotel in a corner of the…read moreGalleria Vittorio Emanuele II. The quirky and original design, with high-quality cabinetry framed in aluminum studs, features good lighting and a very comfortable, radiant-heated bathroom with orange grout between light blue tiles. Enthusiastic, very courteous staff members could at times follow through more. (Cream for the in-room Nespressso coffee had to be requested three times, and the call from the desk for an early-morning taxi to Cadorna station for the Malpensa Express failed). The internal, courtyard-facing room was quiet, a blessing considering the construction noise on the external side. For the price, however, the room is too small, accommodating not even a reading chair. (A slightly smaller bathroom would have yielded a far more comfortable room.) Also not expected was the malodorous sewer gas from the bathroom sink (also encountered at the Hotel Ripa Roma). Is that a flaw in the Italian sanitation system? And as Rebecca H. of Westchester County observed on Oct. 24, 2022, the digital thermostat seems to have a mind of its own and doesn't retain the requested temperature, so that the room was often too warm.

The good: -The room…read morewe got was huge - The room was mostly clean minus the moldy caulk in the shower - Located right across from the central train station The Bad: - A king bed to them is 2 small beds shoved together (that's not how that works) that was incredibly uncomfortable. -They had all AC turned off (saving money?) so my room was between 75-77F each night and made sleeping very difficult - The breakfast buffet they have is one of the worst. Their coffee is offensive to all of Italy. Completely unremarkable food that isn't worth the price. -For how big the room was, the shower was SO small. The handle was insanely temperamental and it's a few centimeters between getting burned to death or frozen. Overall I would not stay here again or recommend it.

The worst experience we had for our hotel in Italy! Reasons:…read more1. Cold room in the winter The max temp the room can go is 24C when we called them to increase the temp they just said No! rudely. The room is cold even during the day and not needed to say coldest at night. I come from the US, and among all the hotels I went, this is the coldest among all!!! 2. Unfunctional radiator The radiator which warms the room is behind the curtains to when you close thecurtains at night, the warm weather would go outide. So cold nights!! Useless!!! 3. 2 twin beds sold as king bed They charged us for king bed when they put 2 twin beds next to each other. You cant even sleep in the middle as it is so uncomfortable. 4. Small sized trash cans We could not even find the rooms's trash can at first so small can under the table and dont let me start on the can they put at the bathroom sooo tiny.

Very convenient if you want to take the train directly to and from the Malpensa airport. As for the room, it was very clean, sufficient space, and had a nice view of the train station and city buildings. The hotel bar is also a cozy spot to sit and enjoy a beverage and snacks. The breakfast is superb. Lots if options with delicious items. Overall, it was a great stay. There are accessible restaurants and bars only a few minutes walking distance and if you need to burn off a large meal, the Duomo area is a 40 min walk. The staff are very pleasant and friendly and also the hotel gym is great amenity as well. Definitely will consider staying here again!

Walk out the door, go down the stairs, and you're at the other end of the platforms at the station. Which means that you can get up in the morning, and catch the Malpensa express to MXP without having to plan anything other than the train time - it's literally just a couple of minutes to the train!

You cannot beat the central location right outside the Galleria and Duomo. The hotel itself is…read morebeautifully renovated with classic yet modern furnishings and very spacious bathrooms. If you are traveling with an infant, they provide a crib, changing pad, blankets, bathing kit, and a diaper pail, which is beyond what other hotels of the similar tier provide. Usually they bring a crib and maybe a stuffed animal so a huge kudos to the Park Hyatt for that. Most of the staff are very helpful and friendly although every so often you will get a receptionist who is a standoffish with an air of ennui. There is also a spa with saunas as well as a fitness room with the standard equipment including 2 treadmills, a rower, an elliptical, and 2 bikes along with complimentary still and sparkling waters (canned). If you are visiting Milan and want to be in the center of it all, this is a great option.

Any time I tried to order an Uber, the pickup point was a 5-10 min walk away - (this will probably resolve itself within a few months?) when we stayed there, there was active construction (i.e. jack hammers throughout the day, literally outside the hotel) Overall, would I stay here again? sure. But I also might try a smaller hotel in the Brera zone which would be less congested and more quiet.

Yes they will park your car for you or you can park it in the public parking garage across the street in the same block. It's a short walking distance.

I'm debating between a 2 and 3 star review, but there were a few issues that made me less than…read morethrilled, but since due to price, free parking and location, I will round up. First of all - location is totally fine. It doesn't seem that wonderful, but the hotel is about a block from the train station and we didn't feel weird at all walking around at night or on the train. The hotel has free parking, but it is a very very tiny parking lot with not a lot of room, so if you have a larger car - beware (or ask them to help you park). Check in was rather easy, and the person at the desk was quite friendly. I was there with my college and he did end up confusing our rooms which caused some confusion later with the keys, but it wasn't a big deal (though it might have been in a different situation if we had booked different sized rooms). There is a person to help with the bags and he was also quite friendly, but I did get the impression that they preferred to bring our bags up for us vs us carrying them. However, since the elevators are super tiny, I'm not sure we all would have fit with our bags. There are also some steps to the elevators, so the luggage wasn't really easy to handle anyway. The decor in the lobby is a bit RED, but it looks comfortable enough and I think there is also a small bar in the back. When we came back after dinner, there was also a fire which made it cozy. On to the rooms...they are pretty small. We had actually booked larger rooms and then when we checked in, we seem to have been given the smaller room (either size was small, but this was like 12 sq m I think?). They did not charge us for larger rooms, but I would have liked to know this when we checked in to double confirm what room we were supposed to have. We had specifically booked specific room sizes. Actually, nothing was confirmed with us when we checked in - they just took our passports and then gave us keys. It was fine for one night, but if you are staying longer, I would suggest a larger room (I would assume the bathrooms are a bit larger as well). The amenities are not what I would consider 4 star - but in Europe, the star ratings are not the same as in the US. It was clean (though, the corners of the shower had a little mold in mine - otherwise, the room was totally spotless). Checkout was quick, but we had some issues as we needed specific information on our invoices and they refused to reprint them for us. They said they didn't know how and had messed up a bunch of information. It was kind of annoying that they didn't seem to want to help us, but when you're traveling for work - we need things a certain way and I found them to be less than helpful. Overall, it was a fine stay and for one night on the way to the airport, it was ok. However, if I were returning on vacation, I would stay in a hotel with larger rooms and more amenities.

When traveling through Italy, we were stopping in Milan and stayed at the Melia Milano which is on…read morethe outskirts of the city near the football stadium and near the Lotto metro stop. From this stop, it would take about 15 mins to get to the city center and about 20mins to get to the main train station. From the outside the hotel looks big, and I found out later that the hotel is in a converted bakery factory hence the large size. As you enter the hotel, you enter into this massive lobby with high ceilings and a grand staircase in the middle. To the left is the check-in desk and a waiting area and to the right is the bar and restaurant. Up the stairs is the first floor which contains the meeting rooms, the Melia lounge, as well as guest rooms. The first thing I noticed when I entered the room is that despite the large size of the hotel and the massive lobby, the hotel rooms were somewhat smaller and more compact than I expected. As you entered the room, on the left was the entrance to the bathroom while on the right was a little wall that ended as you entered into the main part of the room. The bathroom was decent but also compact and contained a toilet, bidet, sink with minimal counter space, and a walk-in shower. The toiletries were refillable and had handwash and lotion next to the sink with body wash, shampoo and conditioner in the shower; the basic amenities were there but the space was more compact and restricted. In the room, on the right was a stand with shelves for storage and then continuing on the right was a nook with an open closet and open luggage rack. The luggage rack and open closet was a nice touch but there was minimal storage space as the open rack and the shelves were the only storage. In the main part of the room, the king-size bed was along with right side of the wall and on each side of the bed was a table with a lamp on it and plugs behind it along with USB ports. The bed was decent enough for the first night but was a bit uncomfortable towards the third night but overall provided a decent sleep. The tables next to the bed were somewhat small so again it did the job but space was limited. Across from the bed, along the left side of the wall, was the TV mounted on the wall and in the corner a table with chairs. The table and chairs was a nice touch to have but again it was a small table so could barely have two people eating or drinking at the same time. Overall it was a decent room with the necessary amenities but the space was more compact than I expected for a suburb hotel. The hotel is a full-service hotel so has lots of amenities including a hotel bar, restaurant, meeting rooms, hotel lounge, a gym, and wifi. The wifi was decent and you could connect as many devices as you want but it did slow down sometimes and was not always the most reliable. I did not try the bar nor restaurant but did see lots of people going there so it seemed popular. Overall, it was not an impressive stay at Melia Milano. This hotel was outside the city and is in a former factory so one would expect bigger rooms but the size of this room is what you would expect at a hotel closer to the city. The customer service was also lacking as we connected with the front desk staff many times and throughout my interactions only staff person was actually nice and helpful while the others barely did their job and barely provided any support.

This was much more than that. The bathroom had radiant heat floors and a towel warmer. The breakfast, which was included, was outstanding! The two girls who were hosting were very friendly and the food much more elaborate than the continental advertised. We received fresh made cappuccino, there was freshly sliced ham and cheese, croissants, musili, and so much more! A great start to our first day here.
