Hotels near Milano Domodossola, Milan

The hotel is somewhat off-centre (away from the business districts of Milano), but within broader city centre with reasonable public transport (~20 mins tramway including wait at the stop) and ~10 mins by taxi. Lively city area for non-business travellers (tourists) with choice of restaurants and more public transport links to areas of interest. The cleanliness is rather good, I only scored it less (2/5) because of the interior in bad need of renovation. The design is 1970-s/1980-s and the age since last decoration is probably not much fresher. This gives it the appearance of a run-down place, although they make good effort to keep it clean. The choice of darker brow-nish colours, combined with the installation of (very) very economic light bulbs, makes the room feel too dark and thus - less pleasant to stay in. For a business traveller it is impossible to read anything outside the spot of the reading lamp. It is also impossible to shave in the dark-ish bathroom, except for people who know their face well enough to shave with their eyes closed. The extra lamp above the mirror did not work, it was a bare little bulb (apparently in need of replacement) and the lampshade gone. Further need for maintenance in the bathroom was the sink - with the waste plug not opening to empty the sink, and the latter filling to the safety hole near the top, even form just a brief handwash.. The breakfast area has capacity for a busy crowd in the rush hour of all tourists taking a late breakfast, but the staff struggle to serve everyone fast enough. Some supplies were not replenished (e.g. bread, the fruit juices, milk for coffees) and later nobody ever came to the table to ask if we need something (perhaps they are not meant to serve tables, just clean them and replenish supplies?) The reception area was much brighter lit than the rooms, had modern automatic glass doors, and overall felt newer and better. Reception staff were friendly and helpful. Based on the overall experience, approx. 4/5 is a reasonable score, but by the hotel categorisation criteria I think 4 stars is too much and 3-star would describe it more accurately. They should remember that satisfaction is always biased by expectations - from the higher expectations of '4 stars' there would be more dissatisfied guests (like yours truly) than if you honestly promise a decent 3-star experience (then I'd have scored everything 5/5). This wouldn't impact revenues as, from what I know form MIlano hotels, the price was very competitive and would fit a 3-star property. Would I recommend it? To tourists - yes; to business travellers - only as a backup in case of fully-booked Milano like duringthe trade fair or Fashion Week ;)

Just a word: I'm a shit! I have sleeped a night in this hostel for need (with two friends fortunately!!), an experience I don't advise anyone. At first the girl who checked in told us “it's a 50s hostel, so wait for this,” we thought at the beginning it was ironical but it was really like that. It was still in the 50s for the CLEASE speech. The structure is decadent, dirty. A room on the ground floor, half-stop door, “balcony” connecting to all the other rooms with door that is directly on the traffic without even a tent (so they could see inside)!!! The beds were linen, no couchs (and I have to say less bad, because I used the towels they provide you...). To do not mention the bathrooms with unexisting cleaning: washing boxes, bathrooms with no key to close, and on 5, 4 was without toilet paper. I did not do the shower for fear of the conditions in which it was. Well, I and my friends have laughed not to cry, but it would be a place to look again or close, given the price you ask for a night!!

The Hotel Regency Milan is a beautiful property located in the heart of the city. Upon arriving at the hotel, I was immediately impressed by its grand exterior and the attentive staff who warmly welcomed me. The lobby area is spacious and tastefully decorated, creating a luxurious ambiance that is both inviting and comfortable. The guest rooms are equally impressive, with modern furnishings and a cozy atmosphere that is perfect for both relaxation and work. The rooms are equipped with all the necessary amenities, including high-speed internet, a flat-screen TV, and a mini-bar. The bed was comfortable, and the room was impeccably clean, making for a comfortable stay.

The hostel was clean, tidy and the staff were friendly and helped us with any questions and gave us recommendations of where to visit. Having a 24 hr reception was extremely useful as there was always someone to chat too if we needed help. Not being able to take our keys out of the hostel gave us peace of mind that we wouldn’t lose them, so it was nice to simply hand them in to reception and get them back when we returned from our outings. While at the hostel we decided to go to Lugano, Switzerland on the train and we didn’t return to our hostel for over 24 hours, when we arrived back we asked for our keys and all was well with our room etc… If I return to Milan and want an affordable accomodation I would definitely rebook this as it is walking distance in to the centre of Milan also.

The breakfast was good. The room and the bathroom were clean. The place where it was located was near the stations. Restaurants were also near. It was very central. The service was also very gentle.

This place definitely has its pro’s and con’s and it depends what sacrifices you are willing to make for price. Looking at other reviews I thought I wouldn’t mind it as I’m not too fussy usually but overall I felt uncomfortable and didn’t really want to stay any longer than I had to: Pro’s -Good cheap price -Whilst further out, it’s super convenient for public transport right outside the hotel only 2 euro to get into Milan only takes 30 mins tops -The man on reception was lovely and very helpful -Rooms are big and whilst very dated and nothing to shout home about if you’re used to budget travelling they aren’t filthy or falling apart -Nice big shower room -Fast, free Wi-Fi and slippers and towels Cons -We felt the area at times was slightly scary (although we did first arrive at night) some concerning characters/gangs in surrounding areas and appeared to be in the hotel as well. It’s a pretty rundown area and we didn’t feel very comfortable there -The walls - I’ve never known anything quite like it to be honest it was so so loud I could hear absolutely everything the entire time. Babies crying, doors shutting, people talking/shouting, playing music, stomps up the hallway - constantly and late into the night waking us up. This all added to the sense of un-ease as it didn’t seem like you were on your own and I couldn’t relax in the room and just wanted to leave. -We were also in an outhouse which wouldn’t usually be a problem but felt so exposed as it was that it just added to the feeling Despite all the positives we couldn’t look past these negatives and I really wouldn’t recommend regardless of price.

What a great hostel, I’ve stopped at many hostels in my time but this was very much one of the better ones. I can only comment on our private room however. Friendly welcome, easy enough check in even though we arrived at 2am due to cancelled trains, not a problem! Great bar and area, things always happening. We saw a live jazz band in there for the one night we were there. Pub crawls, city tours for free, speed dating have it all. Our room was great, clean and comfortable. It was quite loud during the night, noisy neighbours (not the hostels fault) and a weird kind of opening of vents or something from the aircon possibly. Couldn’t put my finger on it but maybe worth looking at. Thankyou to the team!

Room was comfortable, location was convenient as well. The entrance staff service was good, he would help to carry your luggage up the stairs. Also, he gave advice to remind guests to watch out for pickpockets. There is ALDI supermarket around the corner as well. Food has no standard, would suggest to eat out instead. Housekeeping staff did not replenish complimentary water one of the days and went to reception to request. However, receptionist called housekeeping and was told water was replenished even though it is not true.

Everything was not bad apart from fridge in out room...didn't work ! It's a bit hard when it's 30 degrees outside. Staff was friendly and helpful. Localisation wasn't bad at all. Great bar near Cenisio metro station. When u coming to Milan all things are ten times better anyway!
