Comfortable and central

The room was very clean and comfortable, staff were friendly and helpful. The only drawback was that the shower was loose on the wall so it was tricky to get it to stay up and not soak the whole bathroom! The location was brilliant, so quick and easy to walk to everything!

Excellent care from the front desk. Amazing location just 5-10 minute walk to the castle and The Las Supper and 10 minute walk to the stunning Milano Cathedral. Try the Risotto restaurant nearby - it’s retro style with authentic dishes.

They let us check in early morning as soon as we arrived which was extremely nice and helpful. Could not have asked for anything more being we were tired and sleepy after a long flight. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Thank you so much Genius Hotel. Highly recommended and would stay again.

We had a few issues with the room. Air con didnt work so we got a fan sent up. Shower head didnt stay upright. But staff were lovely, breakfst had lots of choice. Beds were comfortable. Very convenient location. A few minutes from Duomo and Cardona station. Quiet with windows closed, but noisy at night with them open. We were next to the lift so other guests woke us up! But a great value 3 star hotel.
