Hotel Madison - Milan

9.5

Our room at the Madison was MAGNIFICENT. Because we booked early through Venere we were given a Suite room. Our friends who booked through another company paid more and got a normal room which was not very nice. Everything about our room was excellent. The location is very close to the central train station and to restaurants. Just a hint, if you want your towels changed, you need to leave them on the floor. If you hang them back up they will not change them. Also, if you do not hang your "Maid Service" sign on the door, they will not clean your room. Great if you want to sleep in.

I was put in a new room that smelled of paint,. The cold water was not turned on after they had completed the work so that i was burned when i took my shower. They tried to fix it as fast as they could but it was a very late night with an air flight early the next day. The price of the room was outrageous (300E) because of a conference. All in all it was not a great experience.

8.8

Very nice hotel with very nice staff overall. I had a small but very efficent room and nice big bathroom. Furthermore the breakfast was very good and of course excellent italian coffee.

7.9

The location of the hotel is excellent - a 2 minutes walk from the Stazione Centrale. The hotel itself was clean, the staff polite (given that they're Italians), but the room was extremely small (possibly because I took the cheapest single room in the hotel). They served a simple, but very good breakfast which included croissants, ham, cheese, fruits, juice, and cereals. Their coffee was excellent - you have to ask them to make one of their delicious cappuccinos - you will love it.

Most Italian hotels are not up to American standards but Hotel Madison was. Nice, clean, comfortable room. Robes and slippers. Big breakfast buffet. Close to Milan Central train station. Will definitely stay here again.

4.9

Nice hotel- not the nicest area of Milan but close enough to amenities. Very near to the Station which is not the safest place at night. Overall I would use again

7.2

My colleague and I had two different single rooms. One rather oldfashioned and nothing special, one stylishly modernized and with a beautiful bathroom. Though not very large, the modern room is certainly value for money with nice marble, lamps, flatscreen, coffee and tea facilities. However, the walls are thin and if you do not wake up yourself early the neighbours will certainly wake you up when they start using the bathroom where you can even hear them using their electric razors.

9.2

very fine: I recommend it!

7.9

the only problem was: the hotel parking was not available and we had to pay an extra charge

7.6

The Hotel is close to the train station, which is a plus if come by train and wish to avoid expensive taxi fares, a minus since - as in most Italian cities - train station surroundings are often degraded and scary.The presence of police patrols in Milano station is nevertheless remarkable and reassuring.

9.4

Convenient location for travelling in and out of Milan by train and for use of the Metro.

8.9

Bell'hotel, tranquillo, vicinissimo alla stazione centrale. Consigliatissimo!

7.3

Situated very near to Central Station, which was great for getting around. Some very good restaurants walking distance from hotel. Breakfast in hotel was disappointing - no fresh fruit. Staff helpful. Would recommend hotel for a very short stay only as lacks public areas. No tea/coffee facilities in rooms.

7.4

Very near Central station, convenient. A bit far from centre of city, so good for besiness stay.

8.2

The breakfast room has a great view of the church!!!

9.1

This is a lovely clean hotel within walking distance to the train sttion. Also it is delightfully quiet, and the breakfast was very good. However the map showing where the hotel is - is so general we could not figure out how to get there. Map needs to include the actual streets that surround the Milano train station. Also a couple of side streets had migrants drinking beer on the side walks in the evenings. One had to walk in the street to get around them.

9.0

We chose this hotel, because it was close to the Train station. It was very convenient and we would stay at the Madison next time in Milano. Staff spoke good English, so there were no breakdowns in communication; very friendly and helpful. Breakfast included meats, fruit & yogurt...more than just bread and coffee, which was very nice to have.

6.7

Hotel was great, a little noisy but acceptable. location worked for my needs. This was my first tome in Milan.

9.7

Overall this hotel exceeded our expectations in regards to price/quality. The only down side, was the slightly seedy end of street away from hotel.

7.2

Quite good hotel. Awful windows. By a metal frame of a window I have scratched to myself a side. The very expensive Internet in room. The bar works only from 3:00 PM. If you were late for breakfast of coffee there is no place to have a drink.

8.1

This is a good but old Hotel

5.9

The hotel is well placed in the very center of Milan. I suspect the room assigned to me was a room not yet revamped in comparison with other rooms located at higher floors.

9.3

Clean hotel with great service and breakfast. Convenient location.

9.1

Hotel Manager would not open the bar at night and gave a very vague excuse that he had had trouble with the Police the week before. That apart it is a very nice hotel for a short break

7.9

This is a very good value and is quite easy to find, something that is not always easy in Milan. In fact, all I had was the little schematic map that Venere gives you and that was enough to get there. The room was clean and pretty well-appointed, the staff very friendly and helpful, the breakfast a full continental fairly liberally supplied. It is a five-minute walk from the train station. The one drawback for some would be that the short street it is on is a little sleazy, with people hanging around on the sidewalk in the evening (though not dangerous), and during my stay there on Saturday night there was a club/restaurant across the street where people were talking and hanging out until well past 3 AM. That didn't bother me, and this was a Saturday night so probably that's the worst case, but if you need quiet at night this may not be the place for you. Otherwise I'd definitely recommend it for the price (for me that was 75 Euro) and convenient/easy to find location.

9.1

This was the nicest hotel on our stay.. The rooms were large and the bathroom nice. We found it with ease from the Milan Central Train station. That was about the only thing we found with ease in all of Europe.

7.8

The room was excellent except for the noisy street. The price was good for the quality of the room. The location did not make us feel safe coming back at night - we were actually scared due to the men hanging in the middle of the street. The TV movie didn't work. The people were great & very helpful. Very clean. Close to train station was great...but sacrificed on safety of the street. Might look for a safer location next time.

9.2

The hotel upgraded our room for no extra charge and were very helpful at the front desk

8.3

We liked the hotel. Mauro at the reception desk was very helpful. He helped us order a great meal and had it delivered to the room. We would stay there again!

9.9

I really enjoyed staying in Madison hotel. It's much lovely vs the photographs & look like brand new hotel. We've been given a superior room even though we're booking the standard one, they said that during low season they try to upgrade the rooms therefore giving better satisfaction to customers. What a nice treatment !. The service also excellent, really reflecting the 4stars hotel, and the location is great, near the central station. We surely will get back to Madison whenever we plan to stay in Milan

9.7

the map was hard to read and I needed directions from train station. It was a great hotel with wonderful service for the price.

7.9

The Madison is a nice hotel located dead close to the train station. The guy on reception was great and very helpful. A bit on noise in the room Dad stayed in due to the world cup celebrations but you can't hold that against them. A good base for our first trip to Milan and a good hotel for the price.

9.9

This hotel is most accommodating for traveling through northern Italy. It is located about one block from the Central Railway Station. One can take the shuttle bus from the airport to Central Station and easily walk to the hotel. Then, one can enter the subway system and go anywhere in Milan in a short amount of time. All of the hotel clerks were both friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet is appropriate and clean. Internet is available on a couple of computers in the lobby. All in all, an excellent choice for the reasonable traveler or business client. If possible, try to reserve or ask for a room on the top or 4th floor. These rooms are about 20 euros extra, but are very nice compared to the standard rooms on the lower floors. In particular, the air conditioners are much much better, and the bathrooms are HUGE.

This hotel was a great affordable choice for visiting Milan. First, it is basically one block from the Central Railway Station and subway entry. The breakfast buffet was good, and our room on the 4th floor was excellent. The bathroom was very nice, and the air conditioner worked very well. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay there again on future trips to Milan.

9.2

Breakfast was awesome. Price was very reasonable...least expensive place we stayed while in Europe. Comfortable beds, high ceilings, spacious rooms (enough for two people). Only disappointment was Milan itself. Use this hotel as a focal point for day train trips since it's so close to the central station, and venture outside of the city for real Italian flair. The Lakes region is much nicer than Milan, and only 40 minutes away by train. I would definitely stay at this hotel again if I were ever to return to Milan. Check-in is at noon, so it's a plus when arriving on overnight flights from the States. Also, they let us check in earlier than 12, and allowed us wait in the lobby with our luggage until the rooms were available. Pleasantly surprised by the hotel, food, and staff since the price was so cheap.

9.2

Vi fikk en suite da vi bestilte dobbeltrom, det var vi svært fornøyde med. Hotellet var lett å finne, rett ved en liten kirke og ikke langt fra jernbanestasjonen. Det var en grei pizzaresturant rett ved.Frokosten var god, og servisen likeså. Ikke av de billigeste hotellene, men et godt alternativ om en vil koste på seg mer enn 3 stjerner. Lokaliseringen i en sidegate ved jernbanestasjonen var grei for oss, men det er alltid litt ekkelt i slike strøk om kvelden. Selve gata var rolig.

8.6

some problems with the tv, first the pay tv didn't work then the tv totaly gone mad and switched on and off as it likes and the staff couldn't help and was not able to exchange it. bad luck because we had to stay one whole day in the room because my wife got sick.everything else was very good or even excellent

8.4

VEry good hotel and excellent staff!

9.7

We were in Milan for only a day and had to catch a plane the next day. We were looking for a hotel close to Stazione Centrale to make our departure quick and easy. The Madison fit htebill. Very friendly staff. Made dinner reservations for us at Limone, which was a very nice restaurant, althouhg it was about twice as far from the hotel as the "300 meters" the desk clerk described.

9.2

A very nice hotel which took us only 2mins to find from the Train Station. Quite a quiet area, although it had very thin windows and one night we got woken up by the binmen at 5:30 in the morning!

9.9

Excellent hotel. Convenient to the railway station. The only drawback is the area between the station and the hotel looks a little rundown

6.5

The Madison is a very functional business hotel located right by the station. The price is very reasonable and the staff are friaendly and helpful. Being near the station is convenient, but as in many European cities, that area is not the safest or most desirable. With all this frimly in mind, I would not hesitate to recomment this hotel.

7.9

In der Woche etwas laut, aber zentral und sauber. Die Angestellten waren sehr bemüht und haben uns gute Restaurantempfehlungen gegeben und sehr gute Fußballkarten besorgt.

6.1

The room we had does get CNN & BBC

6.7

This is a very nice hotel and convenient to the railway station. The breakfast they offered was great. However, the people at the desk need some lessons in customer service. We had a problem with our TV--couldn't get CNN or BBC even though they were offered--and the people at the desk acted like it was our fault. They said someone had been messing with the set (we hadn't). We were there three days and it never got fixed. Also, we wanted to use the internet and they charged us 10 Euro for two hours. We thought that was a little steep but it would have been ok except that they failed to tell us that was for two consecutive hours. So we used it for about 15 minutes and when we came back later we couldn't use it. I don't think I'd stay there again. Not user friendly.

7.0

We spent only the night before our return trip at Hotel Madison and its location served us well. The room was fully adequate--clean and quiet, and the bathroom was well fitted out. The breakfast buffet was fine except that the coffee was served barely warm.

8.1

Nice hotel but first floor in the front is noisy. Conveniently located near central train station

8.0

Stayed briefly enroute from Venice to Amsterdam. Was perfect for next day train travel.

9.2

It is a nice, quiet and comfortable hotel in an excellent location.

9.8

Sehr angenehmes Hotel, Nähe Milano Centrale, ruhig, günstig
