Brunelleschi Hotel Milan, Milan

The hotel was a bit of a mixed bag for me. The rooms felt a bit outdated and had a lingering smoky smell, which made them less cozy. I even tried to change rooms due to this issue but was informed no other rooms were available on different floors. However, the service was friendly and very helpful, trying to compensate for the room situation. The location, though, was fantastic, offering easy access to the city center and attractions, which made up for some of the hotel's drawbacks.

I found the hotel to be a mixed bag. The location was superb, right in the heart of Milan, close to all the action, but there were some disappointments like the delayed room access and the discrepancy between the room appearance and website photos. However, the staff were generally friendly and helpful.

Despite the staff's efforts to maintain the hotel in top shape, my stay was fairly comfortable but the rooms were in need of redecorating and felt a little small. The hotel could use a refreshing touch, but overall it was a decent experience.

Being so central and close to the Duomo, I didn't expect the rooms to be spacious, but they were a bit small, which is understandable considering the prime location. However, the dining experience one evening in the dining room with the balcony to smoke was a highlight.

The hotel is in a great location, just next to the metro station, and a short walk to Duomo Square. The rooms are spacious enough for a single guest but show signs of age, particularly worn furniture corners. The service is friendly and efficient, although there were times when staff appeared too busy talking amongst themselves. The dining experience offers a wide variety of European items and fresh juices, with great service. The location is perfect for sightseeing and accessing numerous restaurants. However, the room's poor sound insulation, being sensitive to noise like passing trams, can disrupt your sleep.
