Hotel Oro Blu - Milan

9.3

very close to metro , hotel facilities are excellent. it is the best one i have ever stayed in during my eruope trip.

9.7

This is just the best accomodation you can have in Milan for such price, the best price/quality ratio! Very clean and nice rooms, kind staff, just one disadvantage: the internet on the PC in our room didn't work, but of course you can access the Internet in the lounge next to reception for free, so no problem. The breakfast was also OK, but watch the expiry date on youghurts, I had an old one:) However, I didn't notice that the breakfast staff was naughty or what like some poeple write here, or I was maybe still asleep :D Very close to metro which takes you to city center in 15 mins. There's noise when you open the window because of cars, but otherwise not, I slept well. I would definitely stay here again. You won't find anything better for that price. Ciao!

8.6

The breakfast is really poor. But everything is very okey.

7.6

Gute Erreichbarkeit. Metro direkt vor Ort(100m) um bequem in die Innenstadt zu kommen. Parkplätze ebenfalls in direkter Umgebung.

7.8

Quiet hotel near subway station and San Siro stadium. A lot of students. Good price I paid.

7.4

non vi era l'aria condizionata

9.2

Oro Blu is a really good address if you want to stay in Milano for a good price. Rooms are clean and spacy with tv and not too noisy. Breakfeast is simple but ok. Prices with venere are cheaper than direct booking!

8.7

perfetto, rapporto qualità prezzo imbattibile per milano.

9.2

Very good relationship between price/quality (for 50 euros/a night - 2 persons).

9.8

The rooms were spacious & clean. The employees were nice & helpfull. We stayed 2 days in Milano & the hotel is 2 minutes walking distance from the subway. It takes 10 mn by subway to reach downtown & the Duomo. Our stay was excellent!

6.7

Nice welcoming and quite friendly staff. Spacious room, very clean. Great price. Very close to the center. The BIGGEST ISSUE: OUTSIDE NOISE!!! The room windows were facing towards the nearby junction with ongoing traffic. They had only a single sheet of glass offering virtually no sound isolation so you hear the traffic all night long, struggling to sleep. Also, in summer it gets very hot in room because of the windows. So if you are easily disturbed by the noise, watch out! Otherwise great value!

5.8

l'hotel nel complesso non è male soprattutto per la vicinanza con la metropolitana fermata LOTTO e con lo stedio di s.siro. i bagni non sono adeguati ad un tre stelle, la porta della mia camera aveva la maniglia rotta e la colazione era davvero modesta. per la cifra spesa una notte ci può stare.

9.3

Einziger Nachteil: Es gab nur teure Parkplätze. Prima: die Internetverfügbarkeit sogar auf dem Zimmer.

6.5

Buona stanza, unica pecca troppo caldo all'interno. Ottima la vicinanza con la metropolitana. Negativo l'atteggiamento della cameriera della colazione che in pratica alle 10 (orario di fine colazione) ti caccia dalla sala colazione.

9.4

Stay exceeded expectations: some negative comments read on web page did not correspond to our experience. Service was friendly and helpful. Non smoking room requested on reservation form was met. We found everything, worthy of at least half a star higher which makes it certainly a great deal for the price. Will definitely return

7.6

rooms and bed ok but the waterroom needs a serious restoration now for milan, i have seen worse

7.6

Veramente un bel albergo. Ottimo il prezzo, spero sia lo stesso durante tutto l'anno.

8.3

Front office stsff is very nice and helpful. The hotel is close to the metro and close to the city attractions

5.6

The breakfast was really poor and the staff at the breakfast restaurant even more. After 3 days nearly everything ran out and they didn't buy new stuff, so on the 4th day there was only butter, bread, a few packs of jam - no cheese, no ham, no fruits, no nothing! The receptionists were very friendly and helpful! The room on the other hand was very spacious and clean! Though it's only 6 stops to get to the city centre (Duomo), the hotel is situated on the outskirts in a kind of unlovely area. Nevertheless the price was okay.

4.8

The desk employee was lazy and his advice regarding parking was wrong and could have cost us a parking ticket. The room had NO internet connection despite the advertisement, and the lock had been broken recently, which obviously showed that the room had been recently broken into. The desk employee was unwilling to cancel the second night of our stay.

8.6

Room was clean, practical, big and quiet. However, breakfast was poor. Hotel is located only a few meters from the metro station. It allows to arrive very quickly any place of Milan. The Hotel is closed to the Fair (only 5 min walking) and there is also a station of the shuttle bus to the airport. I would return to this hotel. However it is not located on Milan's center.

3.9

Terrible service, internet was not available and they didn´t do anything to fix it, noisy rooms, front desk staff at night only speaks italian and couldn´t help. They turned off the heather at midnight and turned on untill 6 am, although it was snowing in Milan and temperature outside was -6oC. Staff in breakfast was angry, as she didn´t like her job, hurrying us. Location so far away from city center. We asked for non-smoking rooms and all our rooms stink to cigarette.

7.4

I have spent only one night. Very good quality/price ratio. Breakfast should be improved...coffe was horrible!

5.4

The double room that we had booked turned out to be a twin. After 20 minutes of complaining, a double room was eventually found for us, but did not appear to be totally finished (bare wires sticking out of a light switch, lack of room info - eg minibar details, broken room safe, etc.). We were rudely awoken at 4.45am with an early alarm call meant for an adjoining room. For a one night stay it was OK, but any longer and I don't think we would have been as tolerant.

7.1

The air in the room was very dry, it was not possible to change room temperature. For soft bed lovers its not the place, the bed was hard.

10

Very nice, clean and large room. Employees are kind and qualified

9.6

it is a nice choice if you want to be close to the station! the rooms are really good and the breakfast is excellent!

8.0

nice hotel well located close to a tube station and near to the san siro

7.6

Good hotel. Friendly staff.

4.1

We had to change the room three times, and also the last one was not allright. All the rooms were very dirty and in a very bad condition.

6.4

I went to Milan for a conference in "Fiera Milano City", very close to the hotel (about 10 minutes walking). I slept in Wien for only 25 euros/night. Here in Milan 85-90 euros/night.. I think it's too much! The rates on Venere is 84, but if you call them directly they ask 90. why? However, the hotel is excellent and has a very plentiful breakfast.

6.9

I had a doule room for 69€, that's quite a good price for a 3* hotel in milan. Location is not in the centre of milan, but close to the ex trade fair, but you can reach the centre of milan with the underground, which is walking distance from the hotel entrance.

1.7

We were very disappointed in this hotel. With all the other great hotels in Milano, would never stay here again. Unfortunately, it was the only one with vacancies at the time. We have stayed at other really nice places. It was very, very "tired" and desperately in need of remodeling. Noise level was unbearable at night.

8.8

The Hotel stays in a good position. I can recommend this hotel.

5.0

A lot of problems to park the car.

5.3

The rooms smelled like cigarettes and pickles. There was no internet, as was advertised on the webpage. The front desk was annoyed with our questions and they kept our passports for 8 hours to "enter" them into the system. Don't stay here.

6.1

We asked for 2 rooms for 3 (total of 6) Got 1 room for 3, and 1 for 2. Complained. got the option to fit 3 in a bed for 2 and half price for the room, or leave. Could not leave 11pm and look for other place with 4 kids.... :-(

7.8

Under 'services and facilities' I gave it a 5 out of 10. That is because of the breakfast. My travelcompanion and me really loved the Hotel Oro Blu, but the breakfast is something that could improve. This was too standard and they shouldn't make instant coffee, but real coffee instead! Furthermore! We loved the hotel. It's got a reasonable price, lovely service, friendly staff and within ten minutes you reach the centre of Milan by subway. If I ever go to Milan again, I will certainly try to get a bed in Oro Blu! Regards, Wilfried Herijgens

8.2

Hotel consigliato, a pochi metri dalla stazione della metropolitana Piazzale Lotto, hotel tranquillo e soprattutto comodo, ampia camera con tutti i confort. Ottimo il servizio, la pulizia della camera, aria condizionata funzionante, da consigliare la prima colazione.

8.0

I stayed in a single room. The room was fairly clean and the bath also. The room could be more colorful and cheerful. The quietness may be poor if you are unlucky enough to have as neighbors noisy people. I had one night this kind of neighbors and the noise was pretty loud. The bath was clean. The shower cab was small and the shower device itself was fixed in the wall. The room service was good. They were cleaning the room every day and changed the towels.

9.8

We think Hotel Oro Blu is also the best dring our 4 week vacation. Our triple room is very clean with air-conditioning,small frige,and TV/computer. The gentleman at the reception gave professional service - very polite and helpful. The breakfast is satisfactory with fresh fruits. The metro station is nearby. For a big city like Milan and a price of 69 Euro per night for a triple room , what else do you expect? We definetely will recommend this hotel to our friends.

9.9

One word is enough for this hote. EXCELLENT.

8.1

Great! The best relationship between price/quality

9.4

Large, spaceous rooms. Great hotel to a low price! 3 min walk to the metro and 10 min to downtown with the metro.

7.7

Conveniently located, very near the Metro station (Lotto). 10 minutes to Duomo. Breakfast was reasonable with a few choices. Room was air-conditioned, required for the summer heat. Staff was helpful giving advises about Milan. Parking was not included. Garage next door charges 24 Euro per 24 hours. Safe and convenient. Convenient for AC Milan fans. 20 mins walk to San Siro.

5.9

We stayed in a double room and the room was nice. The staff was not very helpful, they said they had internet, but it never worked, and then the TV started acting up, and when we called for service the front desk said he couldnt do anything because it was only him. It was just disappointing because we booked this particular hotel because it said it had internet!

6.9

As this is my first trip to hotel, and I have stayed in only this hotel. I cannot compare this hotel to others, but I will descript this is a good hotel. I would like to recommend this one other tourists.

7.1

It worth :)

8.2

Immer wieder gerne! <-- german

7.7

La zona di Milano non è il massimo, ma l'albergo è ottimo!!

7.1

room did not have aircondion. hotel personel claimed did not know this fact. Opening the window raised noise level in room.

4.9

Be warned- walls are very thin so take sleeping pills or earplugs. Room was OK although the curtains were half hanging off. If you eat the biscuit snacks in your room they will charge you!!!! and the same for the soft drinks in the mini fridge. Not the worse hotel but it wont be on my hot list.

7.1

I was in Milan for a master course at Sole 24 Ore. The hotel is close to the school so I found it very useful for my goals. On the other hand, the hotel is quite noisy because it is located on a street really busy, also during the night.

7.9

We spent one night at the hotel, the surroundings are nothing special but the metro stop is just 1 minute walking. I'll stay there again.

7.8

Nice hotel, with a good price/quality ratio. Very close to a Metro Station.

7.2

It was ok but the window was old, so we had to heat very much for having warm and then to swith out the heating and vice versa, because the window did'nt shut very well (to old). We asked a double bed and got 2 single beds. The food was ok and people were kind.

9.1

There is a suppermarket nearby. The price was really good but the stuff said it was due to mistaken pricing on the website and it should be much more expensive. Also, the hotel didn't provide boiled water to the guests, it was a little pity.

9.1

This hotel could do with a lick of paint and a little modernisation, but you get what you pay for and the room was spacious, it was clean and contained everything we needed for a one night stay. Location is very close to a metro station (travel cards 3 euros/day) and didn't take long to get into the heart of Milan. It was especially good as we were driving and you can park in this area for free at weekends (on the blue lines). Also it is outside of the new eco-pass congestion zone in Milan's town centre. All in all it was excellent value for money.

8.8

Oro Blu is a very nice hotel. By subway it is just a few stops from the city centre and is located at Station Lotto (The Red Line). There are also some supermarkets in de neighbourhoud which are also open at Sunday's. The San Siro Stadium is nearby. The members of staff are very friendly and they all speak English. Breakfast is very nice. A well-priced hotel for people who wanted to visit Milan.

9.2

We booked this hotel because of the favorable ratings on venere and other traveling websites. We were not disappointed. The directions were clear from train station to the subway stop only. There were no further directions provided when you reach the piazza. It is near the piazza on right side from where you get out from the subway. Not exactly the direction to the petrol station (as what the other reviewer said). Anyway look out for the blue roof that is Oro Blu. A basic map of the city was provided when checking in. The room and bathroom was spacious. The biggest room we had as we stayed in 4 other accommodations. Clean bathroom where amenities were in working order. We had to open the window when we went out as the room had a stale odor. Once we return, room had fresh air and it was ok. What was nice was the LCD TV! That was cool gadget where you can surf and watch the TV. Don't find this in many hotels. Food was very nice. Food had many varieties, warm and ample. Very generous with fruits and they were fresh. Only improvement for the hotel to look at is the staff. Can be more helpful with directions to places to go instead of handing the map and checking you in.

7.4

Room had been sold to someone else on our arrival, however, the duty manager sorted everything out quickly so no real problems. Hotel pictures a bit deceiving. There is no bar. Toilet seat filthy on arrival but again sorted out very quickly. Enjoyable stay in a nice hotel. Location brilliant for San Siro and Metro.

7.0

changing management will be better soon

9.8

Perfetto come rapporto qualità/prezzo, il massimo per le mie esperienze. Posizione ideale per chi vuol unire una serata allo stadio a un week end a Milano

7.4

Ottimo compromesso, buon prezzo per un ottimo alloggio. Comodo alla Metrò, pulito, stanze spaziose. Consigliato

8.6

We stayed 3 nights in October at Hotel Oro Blu, which is in a good place and very close to metro station (Lotto). Breakfast was good (bread, mini-rolls, croissant, butter, jam, cheese, 2 type of salami, milk, 4 type of juices, tea, fruits - orange/ananas/melon). There was coffee too but not really tasty. There was minibar at the room but prices were not listed, and the safe in the room was closed so we could not use it. The room was clean, towels were changed every day. The Picanha restaurant in the hotel was expensive in my opinion, 38 eur per person for a meal, so we did not try it. There was telephone, tv, hairdryer in the room. Our room was vey spacious, and a little bit cold. To San Siro you can walk in few minutes or you can take the Tram 16. Next to the hotel there was a petrol station, under contruction, but it was not noisy. There was a restaurant at the end of the street (1 pizza 7eur + 2 eur service), where the receptionist booked a table for us. The employees were helpful but they did not speak English well. We were satisfied with everything, and would stay here again (and we have already recommend this hotel to our friends), good value for this price (151 eur for 3 nights for 2 person is a double-bed room with brekfasr, reservation made 1,5 week before travel).

8.9

el hotel esta muy bien,habitaciones amplias, buen trato y muy buen precio.un poco alejado,pero hay una parada de metro y bus justo delante del hotel. si volviera a milan repetiria seguro.

9.3

It's a great solution to spend some days in Milano. The hotel is well linked with Duomo and Stazione Centrale (the Metro is really near to it!): you can reach the centre in few minutes. The quality of services is very good and the prices are really competitive. Highly recommended.

7.8

Employees were very nice and good smiling. the position is great. I was there with children and they were happy about it. It is close to Gare du Nord end to the tube.

6.5

Il letto matrimoniale in realtà è composto da due leti singoli con rotelle... scomodissimo

7.9

once we walked out from the Metro station, we can't find the street name indicated on web. actually, the hotel just sits around the pizza. it is easy to find.

7.3

Generally, we were very pleased with our 1 night stay in Sept-07. The young receptionist was very helpful in recommending places to see, restaurants etc. Best of all, the advertised rate for the 1 night stay we stayed was 50Euro/night, significantly reduced from the regular 190Euro/night rate.

9.3

c'était génial!! nous avions une magnifique chambre spacieuse et confortable avec un super petit dej'! Excellent rapport qualité-prix puisque nous sommes tombé sur une super offre: 50 euros pour une chambre qui en vaut 200 la nuit d'après ce que nous a renseigné la réception!! A recommandé vivement!

9.3

Great value for money. Very clean, recently went through renovations so it looks new from inside. Staff, include Michel (the general manager) and Flauvia were very nice and extremely helpfull - More then you can expect. Breakfast was basic but fresh and tasty. Location is a bit far from center, but hotel located one minute from a metro station. Next time in Milan I won't think twice, I will come back to Oro Blu.

9.9

I loved that place and will be back!:)

10

good hotel, and cheap price,I will stay at the same hotel when I visit the Milano.

9.1

The hotel is very good value for money. We stayed 3 nights in August(when many shops and restaurants are closed- as the locals head for the mountains and beaches). The 3 bedded room was larger than many we have stayed in, though the bathroom was small (and its layout could have been better ). The continental plug adaptor we brought with us was too large for the sockets- but reception was able to loan us an additional adaptor. The hotel is on the opposite side of the piazza when you come out of the metro (head towards the petrol station). A large supermarket was just around the corner. The reception help and advice was excellent-we were given internet printouts of train times to Como, and he checked which museums were open on a public holiday- and also a supply of metro tickets was available to purchase on the bank holiday. Although the hotel is about 7-8 minutes from the centre by metro, the quiet location and high standards and great value for money more than outweigh the fact you are not in the centre of Milan.

6.9

On the website, there was a mention of free parking which is not true. The hotel does not have its own parking and if you have your own vehicle parking can be a hassle but otherwise overall it is a good hotel and the staff are very nice.

8.9

The hotel was great for only 45 euro. Only one minutes walk to the metro & great size rooms. The staff were very friendly & parking was right out the front for no extra charge. No trouble recommending this hotel for the price

8.3

Hotel Oro Blu is a very good place to stay, there is a Brasilian restaurant (where you take your 'big' breakfast)- a real one with delicious meat at a really low price (all in the menu is at pleasure !) entries, pasta, meat, dessert, drink AND coffee for only 15 euros ! we loved this place that people says in winter is much more expansive...

7.8

Only problem was condition of one of the beds. The moment I sat on it it collapsed. Apparently someone tried to be funny and sabotaged it or somebody before me has had a problem with it and failed to asswemble it properly. Fortunately I could repair it myself. Staff was perfect, spoke english and was very helpfull.

6.9

This is a simple hotel, that suits someone looking for a short stay. The room was small but clean. The bathroom was also small but quite adequate for an overnight stay.

6.7

Nice hotel very conveniently located for the metro. Immediate surroundings are rather disappointing and there is a lack of bars and restaurants nearby. Car parking as slightly misleading as we faced an unexpected payment of 15-20 euros a day.

6.1

It's quite near subway and supermarket area. But the price is not standard. I extended 2 more nights by asking the price with night shift employee first which was Euro170 per night. Then the price on the bill was more expensive which was Euro220 per night. The reason which they told me is new employee didn't know the rate. So senior employee offered me Euro190 per night for discount after my stay. So how can I do, I had no choice.

4.6

room very small.

8.5

We stayed only one night but it was very enjoyable. Dispite it is not situated in the historic center, the hotel is quite easy to find and about 5mn driving from downtown. The staff is very welcoming. Rooms are clean, spacious and quiet. You may enjoy a "brasilian style" dinner at the restaurant (huge menu all included for 35€). The underground parking is not free but it is very easy to park besides the hotel. Note that Venere.com offers great rates on this 3 stars hotel, considering how expensive Milano can be!

8.8

Oro Blu is very close to the underground trains which take you to the center in 7 minutes. A large chaep supermarket is only 100 metres away. Breakfast was excellent, we could order as many espressos as we liked for free.

8.4

Oro Blu is really a very nice hotel, the hotel itself is great, but the main problem is it is a bit too far from the center.

9.7

Hotel is located directly to a Metrostation (Lotto Station). With a 10 minute ride you are directly in the city centre. All in all the Oro Blu Hotel is very recommendable.

8.1

In posizione strategica vicino alla vecchia Fiera di Milano ed a soli 15 minuti di metropolitana dalla nuova. Molto gentili e disponibili gli impiegati, e camere molto spaziose.

10

Very very very good!!!

9.4

It was perfect and ner that forum i was at and also ner the city (Doumo), and the brekfast also was perfect and werry werry tastly.

9.1

I chose this hotel because of its great location of being close to the San Siro stadium and also just a ten minute journey on the underground to the Duomo. It is a good 3 star hotel and the reception staff are very friendly and helpful. Venere.coms info on this hotel was accurate and they got me the best price for this hotel by a long shot and I will use them for my next Milan trip.

7.8

Good location. The only problem was the fact that everything in my room (carpets, curtains, bed)smelt strongly of cigarette smoke. If it wasn't for this, it would have been perfect as it is very good value for money considering the location.

8.9

A perfect hotel for a visit to the fair of Milano, the Fiera Milano. The welcoming and instructions for the fair were excellent. Also the price is reasonable for Milano, the center and airports are easily reached by Metro.

7.9

Very close to San Siro Stadim where I actually wanted to be. Breakfast at 10.00 (closing time was 10.30) was very poor. The room was a little dusty but the bathroom was well equipped and clean. I would recomend this Hotel.

9.6

The Employees were fantastic nothing was a problem to them. The rooms were very clean. Thank you Sorry we could not stay longer.
