Our experience with the Antica Locanda began by entering what appeared to be a clubhouse door, just large enough for children or perhaps Romans from the days of the Decemviirs to pass through without striking their heads. On the other side of the door is a large, stark lobby, with a small door to a private gym and a stairway... More

While a little difficult to find, this hotel couldn't be in a more perfect location. BUT, once you’ve figured out where it is, you have to figure out how to get there. The actual hotel appears to be a portion of a larger building and the reception area is located on a level above the entry floor. First you must... More

Upon arrival there is no desk, indication, or even clues there is a hotel in this building. As soon as you find reception on the first floor and get to know your room, coming in and out of this place is just like coming in and out of home. The staff is kind, the breakfest was served in our private... More

Wow, what a find.... Though hard(ish) to find, and not a grand entrance, this place is a real gem. The location is incredible, right in the heart of the main attractions. Clean, crisp bed linen, very comfortable bed. Ask for garden terrace, and have breakfast on the terrace. Staff so friendly and helpful, you'll be glad you searched for the... More

find the hotel in the LonlyPlanet guide. We choose it for the good location in the city center, close to the shopping area. is also neat the theatre La Scala in case like Opera. Rooms are very bright, expecially the one with the terrace. A/C is ok, but Milan was extremely hot in september. We asked the reception to show... More

An anniversary trip planned in total secrecy which the hotel helped with. The whole place was clean and comfortable. A city centre location this hotel was in a typical period building with character and the furniture and decor inside was modern with quirky, artistic touches. The private terrace was ideal for sitting out and entertaining our friends. They were very... More

Special trip with my mom. The position, the rooms and the kindness of the persons working there did make it a special trip. If you are not looking for the usual hotel but for a particular one, this could be it. We had a room with a wonderful patio where we were served breakfast for both of the mornings. Delicious... More

The hotel is well located close to the Duomo and with good bars and restaurants in proximity. The main selling point is the lovely private terraces attached to individual rooms that would be a big plus if you are spending any time in Milan. In addition, there is good free wifi throughout (including on the aforementioned terraces) and a pc... More

Good: fantastic central location, secure, friendly staff, nice furnishings in room, lovely terrace, free wireless internet. Less than ideal: No breakfast provided (in direct contrast to all those prior reviews...), no dresser, no bedside table. Noisy (corridor and other rooms could be heard). At E.150-200/nt I would consider this a reasonable value in a city like Milan, but we paid... More
