Ibis Milano Centro

Friendly staff, nice location (not far from the metro and close to a lot of stores), half an hour walk away from the center.

Breakfast: staff was always available to accommodate people, fast at cleaning the tables. The food was good, it should satisfy most needs. Restaurant (dinner): must say the quality and presentation of the dinner plates exceeded my expectations. Some may think it's "just an IBIS" but the food was excellent, and tasty. We did not regret having dinner there for the time we stayed. Room: the room was as expected for an IBIS just sufficiently big enough to have a comfortable stay nonetheless. Could be bigger, but not necessary. The rooms were quiet, or so were the customers as well. The surrounding area must be overall a quiet area as well, I did not hear any noticeable noises. Location: the hotel is in my view well positioned between central train station and the city center. You can either walk in between those places or take other means. Tram, metro stations are nearby. Also the hotel is located in an area full of bars and restaurants, in the evenings one can go and have a drink before closing out the day.

* Location: ibis Milano Centro is in-between the city center and Milano Centrale train station, about 400m to Metro M3-line Repubblica station and about 650m to Metro M1-line Porta Venezia station. Quite convenient for both getting into the city and also for day trips via trains. There is a small supermarket in the same block. Pavé café, famous for its Panettone, is very close by. * Overall: A solid ibis experience. The price-performance ratio is good; any closer to the city center, and hotel prices start to skyrocket.

Breakfast was great, Very good variety and all seemed to be very fresh. LOTS of sweets, I really liked that. We had some coffees at the bar in the evening, barman was nice and friendly. They have great staff there, all from reception people to security guy were nice and friendly.

The hotel has a wonderful location 5-7 minutes walk from Republica metro station and around 15 minutes walk from Central train station (which has buses from the airport, a wide metro line, a shopping center and a list of cafes on it). The room was clean and basic but it was enough for me. The room was quiet and the bed was comfortable, the shower worked well so it was a great option for several nights in Milano. The breakfasts were quite OK, so there is nothing to complain about. Not a great choice but enough for the breakfast (eggs, tomatoes, sausages, break, lots of bakery, deserts, coffee). The supermarket was right in the building of a hotel so it was very comfortable. Also the hotel serves some food near the bar from around 5 to 7 PM. I enjoyed the stay.
