Hotel Brunelleschi - Milan

Good location (close to the Duomo) but there is no WIFI available at the hotel (only High Speed Internet)

Hotel Brunelleschi was an ideal base for a weekend visit to Milan. The price via Venere.com compared very favourably with the price given on the door. We were happy to use just the shower rather than the jacuzzi provided.

I was lucki, my room was very spacious,and had a large whirlpool, wich I enjoyed after a long day. But de best part of the hotel is its location, it is just steps from the Duomo and La Scala Theatre, in the tourist center of the city.

The staff were friendly and helpful and the location was great. It was however a bit expensive.

Extremely satisfied with our stay. Recommend this hotel. close to Duomo, shopping, restaurants. Yet not so close to hustle and bustle fo the Duomo plaza.

The location is good - very close to Duomo, but the street is quite noisy - I would recommend to ask for rooms on the other side. Rooms (and the whole hotel) is a bit old, but this normal for the central location. Breakfast was Ok.

BEDS NOT COMFORTABLE. Excellent convenient location and friendly staff. Room was good size with lots of amenities, however this hotel needs to do something about their mattresses, this was the worst bed i have slept in in a long time (we had 3 beds and they were all the same, furthermore, the floor seemed to be slightly softer). This should not happen at a 4 star hotel (wasn't cheap either), luckily just spent 2 nights in Milan. Nonetheless, Their inclusive breakfast was excellent and we also enjoyed having easy access to the sites.

I'll come back for sure , location it's grate and hotel very nice and clean

Nice room, very good breakfast, excelent location.

The hotel is extremely well located near the centre of Milan. It is reasonably modern, well designed and well maintained, but totally lacking in any charm or character. The first major problem for us was the attitude of the reception staff, who were also uniformly charmless to the point of outright rudeness. We stayed in seven different hotels in Italy during a 4-week trip, and were made to feel very welcome in the other six. The second major problem was lack of wi-fi internet access, either in rooms or public areas, which is below the standard required these days for hotels that present themselves as catering to the business market. The staff were unconcerned and did not seem to think it would be a problem.

Daytime maintenance of the floor was not comfortable, especially rainy season. Please consider the timing, thank you

Make sure to request an inside room on check-in. Streetcar noise cab be heard in rooms facing the street during the day. A very good buffet breakfast is included. Internet access is free (wired, not wi-fi) in all rooms. Staff is very helpful and pleasant. Hotel is only 3 minutes walk to Duomo.

Pricey, but elegant. Lots of tourists, so the breakfast area was jammed. Polite staff, great little bar (and bartender). Do NOT try to drive! But we would definitely stay again.

Very nice hotel and location

We loved our stay, with a top breakfast, TV, etc. Position of the hotel could not have been better, with Duomo, cafes etc within blocks. Highly recommend.

Excellet location for shopping and business. Rooms not too small. Clean. Excellent staff

Central located, about 200m near piazza duomo. You can reach the center by feet. Clean rooms, nice and clean reception, very friendly staff. Completely renovated rooms and floors, bedroom and bathroom very nice furniture. Very good breakfast. A great hotel. We'll surely return to this hotel.

Good location ,reasonable price,i will stay in this hotel again when i visit milan.

The location is excellent, 2 minutes from the Duomo. Breakfast was excellent too.We got an upgraded room that we enjoyed immensely. Service was good.they even send us an item we forgot at the hotel without charging us.

Small problems with the room were dealt with immediately and efficiently. We would not hesitate to recommend this hotel as a base for a visit to Milan - very near to the centre but still a quiet location. Breakfasts were an excellent start to a long day of sightseeing or shopping.

Very nice hotel, excellent location, comfortable room, very well equipped, good services and a very convenient price.

I went to Milan to see Leonardo's Last Supper (Cenacolo Vinciano) and watch an opera at Teatro alla Scala. The hotel location is excellent avery short walk to Il Duomo, Galeria Vittorio Emmanuelle and La Scala. Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent breakfast. Restaurant not expensive.

The hotel is conveniently situated in the area we wanted to be. Almost everything was in walking distance which makes things easier.

With a little help from your reviews that recomended to ask for newly decorated room I have got excelent room,but for higher price.I had a little problem with deposite safe,it was without batteries,but the desk solved it at once.The room and the bathroom were clean ,with a lot of soaps etc-there are so many places with lots of stars where you have to ask for it,but the cleaning lady left once the garbage in the sink!? Espresso was one of the best in Milan,and the location is everything,so close to Duomo,Galleria.Scala,shops.....

The breakfast choices were great; the entire staff especially the doormen/bellboys were very welcoming and helpful. Overall, it was a great hotel except for the fact that cigarette smoke odors permeated in the rooms we stayed in.

We had booked a normal 'double' room and when we arrived we had been upgraded to a suite and it was fab! Really liked this hotel. It was our final night in Italy and so we really enjoyed having the upgrade!

Upon arrival, we were pleased to find that we were upgraded to a suite. This hotel could not have been cleaner. the staff was great. Breakfast was generous and there were extensive choices. Perfect location - 2 blocks from the Duomo.

We were upgraded to a great room. However, the employee who attended us didn't seem to be happy about that. He almost regretted the upgrade.

Not only were we given a suite (to our surprise), but the hotel was more than happy for us to retain the room until 2pm as we had a late flight. We would recommend this hotel for the quality os its service and its proximity to cathedral, La Scala, shopping Galleria etc.

Good location, excellent breakfast,my favorite hotel in milano

This was my first trip to Milan and considering my short stay, I wanted a hotel that was close to major attractions. Overall, the location of this hotel is very convenient to all major attractions and as a single traveller, did not feel unsafe during my walks back after dark. (Walk to Duomo in 5min) However, the rooms and hotel facilities are old and dated. I was shocked at how 'old' looking my hotel room was, compared to the price I paid. In addition, the worst part was that I woke up early to catch a very early flight to absolutely NO electricity! When I called the front desk they casually told me they would look into it. I explained I had to leave in 30min for a very early flight, only to not have then call me back! Finally I called them 15min later, and said I had to wait for a technician! Finally, they offered another room where I could at least shower and change with lights - but it did not have hot water!!!!! The worst part was that when I finally sorted things out, got my bags and went down to checkout, I did not even get an appology!! In addition, because of this delay, I was now 40min late, I had to take the hotel limo, instead of the train, costing me more than $100more than I expected to pay! I will not return to this hotel as I do not feel they understand customer service, the price is too high considering the conditions of the room and there is nothing 'special' about this hotel that would make you willing to cut its tired appearance some slack.

Welcoming staff, prime location, excellent amenities, spacious room, competitive rate, wonderful breakfast, what't not to like about this hotel. We would definitely stay here in the future.

We were in Milan for the opera at La Scala and to see the Last Supper. Delighted to find there are other cultural sites, as well. We had a good time, and enjoyed a wonderful dinner at the hotel. The risotto is the best we have had. Great location made getting around easy.

Non seulement nous avons bénéficié d'un tarif promotionnel très intéressant compte tenu de la qualité de l'hotel mais en plus nous avons été surclassé. La décoration, l'agencement et la literie étaient de grande qualité. Le restaurant est remarquable tant pour la qualité des plats proposés que pour la qualité du service. La prochaine fois que nous retournons à Milan, ce sera dans cet hotel si nous bénéficions de nouveau du même tarif!

Trés bien situé. A 2 pas du Centre Historique de Milan. Manque de prestations. Un acceuil pas toujours trés chaleureux. Un prix excessif pour une chambre moyenne. Nous avons payé pour 1 couple et 1 enfant, 300 € / nuit !!! dans un hôtel loin d´être un palace.

This hotel was excellent once we had changed to a renovated room, the unrenovated rooms are really not at all good and do not reflect this feedback. There are not many renovated rooms and these are the ones on your photos so could be a bit misleading. Make sure you ask for one of these rooms

Excelent location,few steps from duomo and metro,all the important shops are nearby. Rooms are ok but could use some refresing. Excelent beakfeast. Friendly staff. Price in weekend very good.

Ideally located for sightseeing: a very short walk to the cathedral, then up the pedestrian zone to the fortezza. Also not far from the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, where the Last Supper could have been seen had we reserved tickets (must be done 2 to 3 weeks in advance!). Other than the bathroom being a bit cramped, the room was spacious enough for our stay; it was quite comfortable. The staff were competent and, aside from the eggs and bacon being only lukewarm, the breakfast buffet was very good. We particularly liked the fresh fruit, tomatoes and mozzarella.

We stayed in Milan for the first three days of our 14 day trip. We enjoyed the location of this Hotel because you could walk to the Duomo, the shops, the museums and restaurants. There is a great local restaurant directly across the street from the Hotel which we would highly recommend. We travel to Venice, Como,Verona and Portovenere. We actually came back to the Hotel the night before we left Italy for one last night in Milan. The breakfast buffet is excellent and a great way to start your day in Milan. I also highly recommend taking the reserved car to the airport for 90 Euros, it will be money well spent. Although we did take the Malpensa Express train from the airport to Milano, we opted for the private car and it was worth the money, especially if you have any luggage. We would definetly return to the Hotel Brunelleschi.

A fantastic hotel in a fantastic location with fantastic rooms and breakfasts.

Fairly standard hotel. Great location in center Bathrooms very small.Car park service good. Quiet and well darkened room.Breakfast good with lots of fresh fruit. check out time 1pm which is very good for morning sight seeing before departure. Overall well recommended.

I`m afraid that my comment could not be very objective becuase I was very lucky to receive a room upgrade upon arrival. So I stayed in a superior class room for the price of a standard one. I can only say it was great. A lot of space, many ammenities, etc. The hotel staff is very helpful and friendly.

Wonderful!

Third stay, very good location!

Hotel location is very good for visiting sights and the rooms are spacious. Breakfast is very good and the hotel staff are very friendly and helpful.

The location of the hotel is very, very good. This contributed a lot to our enjoyable stay in Milano. The hotel is good in general. The breakfast is very good and is included in the price.

It was a really nice stay at the Hotel Brunelleschi. You got what you paid for. The rooms were quite old-fashioned (80's). However, everything was great. The only negative thing was, that we were not able to switch off the heating as we had about 30° degrees in our room. We would recommend this hotel to everyone and we will definitively go again.

Hotel ubicato nel pieno centro di Milano, la lobby non è accogliente, ma le stanze sono pulite e ben attrezzate, anche se piccole. Colazione buona. Ho avuto un problema (la cameriera ha inavvertitamente gettato nella spazzatura un foglio, che poi era un contratto) e, dopo avermi giurato che non era assolutamente accaduto, il concierge mi ha consigliato di ritornare dal fornitore per farmi fare una copia (?!?). Ho ringraziato per il consiglio "intelligente", ma hanno dimostrato scarsa professionalità.

The room was super for the prize we paid. The hotel is very near to the Dome and the Scala.

I believe your website is fantastic ! I work in the hospitality business in Napa Valley, USA and feel that your site provided accurate information re: hotels/inns and reasonable prices. I did request through your site a stay Oct 1 at the Hotel Mastino in Verona. Unfortunately, upon arrival they had no reservations under my name, but accomodated me. Thank you again ! I will be visiting Italy April 2007 and will use your site again !

This was a delightful surprise. So close to the Duomo. Fabulous bath/shower and very comfortable bed. Very quiet. Great restaurant directly across the street: Il Salotto at 9 Via Baracchini.

Excellent breakfast (buffet)!!

With a discounted internet price we were rewarded with a top notch Hotel.Clean, and more space than many other hotels. Prime location for shopping and sight seeing the city center. Metro service within 4 min in either direction, you can't go wrong. Chris & Janie Peeters California, U.S.A.

Very well situated near the center.

The hotel is excellent, and we had a very nice stay at the hotel Brunelleschi.

Very good

Should include free breakfast

The location of the hotel is very good. Also the breakfast was excellent. A little bit a shame that during the fair at Rho you ask more than the double of the price 350 instead of 160 €.

Breakfast was excellent,location is siutable to reach different directions

The view from the room wasn`t to enjoying because you looked at walls and windows of the surrounding buildings.

It was a very pleasant stay in Milano.

The free newspapers and use of internet was appreciated.

The hotel was very good location, very close to the Duomo. The service was good, breakfas it is excellent.
