Hotel Ritter - Milan

We were satisfied with this hotel. Nice breakfast, competence and welcoming staff, good location. I would like to recommend this hotel to the people who go to Milan.

I was really surprised by how nice the room was. It was a big room for two people, so we had enough space and we were both comfortable. The front desk was helpful, and the breakfast was good, even though it was included. The only thing was that it closed at 10 am, and if you got there after 9 am, they would stop refilling the food. Other than that, the location of the hotel was near by a metro stop and it was easy to walk from there too.

I was lucky and had a very nice and clean bathroom. The room itself was a bit small, but I was there only to sleep and have spent most of the day in the city, so overall I really enjoyed staying in the hotel. It's a good value-for-money hotel.

Hotel Ritter had a beautiful lobby and friendly, helpful staff. Our two rooms were clean and spacious. I loved the location. We were easily able to walk to every site that we wanted to see in town. It was our first time in Milan, but I would stay there again if we were ever in Milan again.

Great location

the use of internet is too expensibe: it should be free as in other hotels

I think that the hotel was well worth the money. There were two things that I did not like and that was the unstable temperature on the water in the shower and the other were the thin walls between the rooms. You could hear every word in the conversation next door.

Not a good hotel to stay for pleasure. It's situated over a pub, which makes impossible to rest during the night. The hotel is totally outdated and gives you a poor feeling. The breakfast is basic. The only positive point is the favorable situation: 15 min walking from Duomo and 2 min walking to the nearest metro. The staff is friendly and helpful as well.

The perfect place for a city trip in Milan. Nice neighbourhood and good breakfast

We had a great stay at the Ritter - molto buono!

hotel is localised at near of Milano centrum (Dam). The around of the hotel is excellent especially in the night.

A great location: close to the Brera, a half hour walk to the Duomo,a metro stop meters away and plenty of great places to eat in the neighbourhood. It feels safe here.

I hardly recommend this hotel to everyone.

It was a pleasant stay. the room were very clean even though the furniture is quite old and they should invest something in it. we just arrived from milan and we were pleased about Ritter. Great location, great breakfast and the personnel very pleasant as well.

very nice, I suggest

We found the Hotel Ritter to be quite presentable, with clean rooms, attention to clean linens daily, a very nice night clerk, and helpful day clerks and the breakfast was very well done. We especially liked the fact the hotel is very close to the Metro, which we used often. I would recommend others to consider going to Hotel Ritter.

Nice hotel on walkin distance of the highlights of Milano. Good breakfast. Value for money.

We arrived late and left early the next morning. The room was really nothing to complain about. We slept well! Nice location. The breakfast was a little simple.

Hotel is very central and 1 mile from Duomo. The rooms are tidy and clean but old. we had a dripping tap and loose electrics in the bathroom which was reported twice but ignored. Price is very competetive, breakfast ok and easy reach of linate airport for 20 euros in a taxi 10k away

I stayed four nights. The hotel is well placed in central Milan (M Moscova) and by metro you can reach all interesting parts of the town ànd the central station. there was traffic, but not really noisy. Only noise in the night were people hanging around in the bars. But well, that is night life in Milan. Service and facilities were great. Bath rooms (mine an dmy friend's) need repair, though, but no real problem. Services were swift and very friendly, both by reception and other personnel. General experience: excellent - good quality for good price.

I got it 45 euro for each night for a single room. I recommend it to everybody who is looking for a 3star(but really clean & nice atmosphere) in a PERFECT LOCATION in Milan(one of the best areas). VerY verY easy to access. Just steps from underground Moscova. It reallY worth moneY.

After reading some negative reviews, I was totally prepared to dislike this place. However, my room was nice and spacious though the shower was a bit funky. With that being said, we were given the WORST location in the hotel, directly underneath the construction upstairs with drills, lots of hammering and noise between 10 and 4. Make sure that you are not on the 4th floor, or ask about the ongoing construction and where it is. The hotel area is very nice, with lots of good restaurants. The hotel did have laundry service, which was nice. Once construction is finished this hotel will be much better as the changes are a real improvement.

When we checked in, the man at the reception was helping someone and seemed to be stressed. We checked in and he was quick to get us processed so he could have a somke. The room smelled of smoke, but an acceptable size. The window was at and looked over a roof access. We were not sure to leave the window open as someone could just step in. The boy(a VERY young looking person) at the reception in the morning seemed to not have much information as to what was around and did not have much information on tourist attractions. The area was a night spot for the younger crowd (good and not so good).

Location and price would be the main reason to stay here. Walking distance to the Duomo and major sites in the area (20 minute walk) and close to the metro. Breakfast was OK but the espresso machine broke down. Stayed for one night before leaving Milan and it was OK for one night.

Near metro (Muscova). Nice part of the town. Excellent breakfast. No noise from the street. Nice little balcony and fridge. And the room was not small.Good value for money. Unfortunately the staff forgot to wake us the morning we were to leave the hotel.

Near metro station, room clean. It's good for a night in Milan for joung people going to concerts and events.

Beautiful area (near Brera and Corso Como) and good price. The furnishings are very old (in particular the bathroom) and the rooms are not well soundproofed. For few days you can have a mediocre quality hotel, but in a very nice area of Milan.

This was a great deal for the price. The rooms were spacious, clean, quiet etc. The breakfast was good; the expresso/coffee was also very good, upon request from the bar. Free internet was available BUT only from the public lounge (next to the reception area). Walking distance from the Milan Cathedral (15min). There is no hotel parking so we parked the car on the nearby street, find a blue line (yellow is for residents only) about 300 m away from the hotel. Approx. 1.2 Euro/h (free at night). The area looked safe to leave the car. Great hotel for the price, we would stay here again.

Good location, walkable distance to train station, metro station is right near by, good breakfast. Aware of a marble floor, bring slippers!

I would definitely recommend this hotel for its LOCATION (right next to Moscova metro station). Reasonable price/quality ratio, premises are not necessarily "modern" but for a short stay they are just fine. Front desk staff is very friendly and willing to help, speak good English. When booking, try asking for apartments facing the street (ending in 12, for example) - they have nice balconies which are nice in sunny days or warm nights. Apartments are sufficiently furnished; however, the one I stayed had two single beds put next to each other instead of an actual queen size bed. Bathroom may look quite old (again, this building is not one of the most recently built in the city).

The Hotel is ok for the citytrip, but only when Your have the windows not to the street. We had the windows to the streetsite, and it was terrible loud. We can't sleep. The breakfast was very good for the 3* Hotel.

A very good position.

I have stayed at the Ritter many times before and this last time I was very disappointed with the room that I was given. The water in the shower was hot and then cold and then hot again as well as the shower would not stay on the wall and was leaking all over the floor. The room was noisy due to the maids above moving furniture across the marble floor. The lights in the hall and bedroom were not working and reception promised to have them seen to but never did. No courtesy from manager for a long term guest.

I and my wife stayed a night at Ritter, in 10/01/2009, and we didn't like. It looked like old and the air conditioning wasn't work.

If you need a hotel for one night in Milan, and don't look for anything special, then Ritter is quite good. Without individual stile and little bit shabby, but my room was large and warm (it is important in winter), breakfast was acceptable, and personal spoke English. The hotel is located near an underground station, what is convenient as well.

This was the third time I stayed in Ritter. It's like a secret deal; you lower your expectations and they lower their prices. And I should also mention the politeness and hard work of the reception staff. Good deal, I hope they stick to it!!

Very nice location (close to everything!!) but we got a very old room at 5th floor..need to be renovated, specially the bathroom. In any case, wonderful location and a good place to stay for a few days

Hotel Ritter was a great place to stay. Located on nice avenue in Milan, with lot of nice restaurants around and 1 min. of the subway which takes you anywhere you want. Very quiet and dark room, loved it.

It was pretty nice hotel with good surrounding..

Definitely high value for money, though I was upgraded which affects my judgement of course. Quiet (pedestrian) street with nice bars and restaurants close by. Walkning distance to the Duome.

cheep one, convinient one

Location is perfect! very easy to come from Malpensa airport and Milan central railway st. Rooms are bit old but well maintenanced. Breakfast was much better than expected.

I think When I'll come in milan next time I'll make the reservation in this Hotel if they 'll have the some rate and type of room.

Beacause of a fair the prices of hotel in Milan were quite high, so we've chosen for Ritter hotel which was less expensive. The location is excellent (Corso Garibaldi, full of bars and restaurant) for people loking for night live, restaurant, bars. This part of the Brera area really "lives". But the hotel in itself is not so nice. Rooms are quite old, breakfast is very bad (especially the orange juice, disgusting) but ok.

Excellent choice if you are not looking for a new or luxury hotel. Located in one of most beatiful areas of Milano, Castle and its park just 5 minutes away on foot. Ideal for runners. Excellent buffet-breakfast for this price, which is not always easy to find, even in Italy. Recommended.

The Ritter Hotel is an old hotel in the center of Milano. I was in this hotel a lot of time in the last 18 months because is located in the downtown and the price was very interesting.... But the last time was the last... the leanliness of rooms is each time worse...

Gute zentrale, eher ruhige Lage am Anfang einer Fußgängerzone. Große und helle Zimmer, das Bad etwas klein, aber sauber und die Klimaanlage war individuell einzustellen und leise. Die Einrichtung war schon etwas älter, dem Schrank hätte ein Regalboden mehr sicher gut getan, aber alles im allen ok. Handtücher und Bettwäsche wurden täglich gewechselt. Für Italien große Frühstücksauswahl, die Brötchen/Cornettos etc. waren frisch und z.T. noch warm; Müsli/Cornflakes, Käse, Wurst und Eier gab es extra zu der sonst nur üblichen Marmelade. Das einzig negative waren die hellhörigen Zimmer, wer aber ohne Ohropax nach Italien reist ist schon fast selbst schuld. Ich hatte ein Doppelzimmer zur Einzelnutzung, hoffe aber ganz stark, das es nur ein Einzelbett war, ansonsten sollte man sehr schlank sein. Vorm Buchen besser nachfragen. Zum Schluß: die Tickets zu Leonardos Abendmahl unbedingt mindestens zwei Wochen im Vorraus telefonisch vorbestellen, bzw. Monate (!) vorher im Internet buchen. Vor Ort werden keine Tickets verkauft, die drücken einem nur die Telefonnummer in die Hand. Ich habe mit Müh und Not eine einzelne Karte für drei Tage später reservieren können. Montags hat übrigens fast alles geschlossen.

I have stayed here twice now and would probably come back again. It's a decent comfortable hotel in a fantastic area, lots of nice little bars and restaurants, a relaxed atmosphere and is easy walking distance from the centre - Duomo etc.

It has an excellent location (near the city center and metro) thus it is a great value for money.

Hotel pulito e confortevole, colazione abbondante e varia, vicino al centro (15 minuti a piedi per arrivare al Duomo). Un ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. Unico neo: le stanze rumorose, non per la vicinanza alla strada, ma per il fatto che si sentono molto i passi degli inquilini al piano di sopra. Io ho alloggiato in una stanz al primo piano, molto spaziosa e ordinata, con il bagno ristrutturato di recente e ben pulito, Purtroppo sono stata svegliata in piena notte dagli ospiti del piano superiore...e devo dire che non stavano saltando ma solo camminando pe rla stanza. Questo è l'unico motivo per cui non mi sento di dare 8, anche se nel complesso l'hotel è in ottima posizione e confortevole.

We stay in may 2009 only 1 night, a god place to rest, a few blocks from there you have small restorant, ok

There's a noisy renovation in the next door, from 7am!!!!

Very good location, easily walk to the city center, and very near to the subway station. hotel was clean and spacious.

Good prices, good location near center, no bad surprise, I will stay there again and recommend it to my friends. Another asset, one of the best Japanese restaurant in Milan is just downstairs (Osaka restaurant), for those who want something different...

I think that rooms will be better. It was quite old, but all good in general.

Would recommend for anybody looking to stay in Milano on a budget...easy links to Duomo via the Metro and close by to Corso Como and Brera for some excellent nightlife. Forza Milan!

A very nice hotel, the service was excellent.

Tutto bene!!!

This is the best hotel we have during my trip in europe so far. The location is perfect 100 meters from tube and only 5 minutes walk to very old castel. 10 minutes by metro to duomo. Free luggage and breakfast included in the price. Excellent hotel. Absolutly i will use this hotel if i have to travel to italy.

The location is perfect. The breakfast was basic, but ok. Very, very much noise in the night, because the walls are so incredible thin. The room was clean, but they must renovate it. They must repair sanitary installation, because the water was driping all the time, in the bathroom. Last evening we ask the employee to give a phone call in the next early morning. They forgot!

Clean rooms, but nothing more. Dont expect anything beyond 4 walls and a roof.

Oll OK, the room was not so big, but at the price that we payd, it was fantastic. The breakfast opens at 7.00 AM this is OK for persons that need to go around early.

I spent only one night at Ritter Hotel and I chose it because of the very good price. I'd return if needed despite the badly room's isolation. I could hear the person of the floor above walking and the neighbours watching tv. As it was Saturday I could hear people in the street taliking loudly as they were coming out of the restaurants. Good choice of restaurants and very next to the tube.In the morning big variety of food for breakfast.

Room cleaning poor. Old dirt in wals, floor... Breakfast good. Price - cleanines do not match. - Location for our (business)purpose very good.

pulito, super economico, centralissimo. Stanze ampie, personale gentile. Colazione più che decente. E' bruttissimo, ma per 49€ per una singola colazione inclusa, non ci si può aspettare il grand hotel.

it was a nice accomodation to get through the city centre. the staff wasn't friendly at all!!! hotel position is great, very near to the metro station, located in a pedestrian zone, near to piccolo teatro and castello sforzesco.

The only good thing about this hotel is it's location. Otherwise it is one of the worst Hotels we have ever stayed in. It was badly furnished and antiquated and desperately in need of a major refurbishment. However, this seems to be normal for hotels in Milan when there is a Trade Show. They are massively over priced and very poor value for money. We spent the previous two nights in the Hotel Balmes in Barcelona for one third of the price in a varstly superior hotel. It seem that if you want a reasonable hotel in Milan during a Trade Show you have to pay around €400 a night, so we are seriously considering whether will will ever go to Milan again.

It was super, and confortable, it's a cool hotel.

The photo shown on Venere webpage was taken when the room was new. However, it must have been many years (10?) since the photo was taken. The room is old, and the door did not close tightly. You can even see the lights coming out of the rooms from underneath the door. The hotel is at a good location, very close to the subway station, several restaurants nearby, and good neighbourhood. Hotel service at the frontdesk is nice, and very helpful. I would recommand this hotel only to tourists, but not business travellers because there is no internet access at all (free or paid). For tourists, this is a good choice if you don't want to pay a lot to get a good/convinient location near the center of Milan.

Hotel Ritter is conveniently located between Garibaldi and Cardona train stations in a pedestrian friendly area. We found the area clean, the hotel staff friendly. The breakfast was basic but sufficient. The room was clean, though not exactly as suggested in the property photos. Quite sufficient for an overnight stay while traveling. We would choose this hotel again while en route, but would not choose it for an extended stay.

choose a room to the back side. the street in front is sometimes to loud. rooms are clean and have enough space. in comparison to the room charges excellent. 15-20 min. only to center by walk. a lot of pubs and eating facilities around the hotel. breakfast clearly arranged but okay. ask for a coffee from the counter...taste better ;-)consistently again!

Near Subway Lots of restaurant around Surrounding very alive so be prepeared to some happy noise from street in the late evening Spacious room Spartan furniture but clean

the hotel could have a better internet connection , even though the staff knows , it still is slower than the turtle the hotel is 23 minutes walk to underground station " cardusio" where you have to turn to left to go to Duomo in 4 minutes the hotel area is nice but it is very noisy till 02.00am , the windows are not sound-proof the brealfast is reasonbale

Absolute incompetent, hostile employee. Noise on the street throughout the night. Simple breakfast, coffee made from instant powder. Worn interior, especially the bath room. I'll never come again.

I stayed in hotel Ritter for two days with my wife in the middle of January. The hotel is very well situated, near the city center. The second impression was not so great. It was requested that we pay in advance for our stay, very unusual for 3 stars hotel. So we did. The middle aged guy that was working at the reception desk was... well, each time I asked him something I received no answer and I had to wait at least minute or two for him to react, and again no answer or some friendly face to my please and thank you. Other people were ok, especially kind restaurant stuff (and the breakfast was good too) We got a very spacious room with good bathroom, clean and quiet, and the rest of our short stay was OK.

Night manager on arrival was extremely rude, unhelpful and patronising to all guests. In stark contrast the staff on the departure and at breakfast were excellent. The hotel was well postioned and priced and if the Friday night employee was removed this would be excellent value.

people are not so kind, but the room are big

I came with my daughter (22) for Xmas. The location was as described but the rooms were ugly, poorly lit and depressing. Moreover, the heating system is malfunctioning (we had to change rooms and still it was very cold. The windows and doors do not close properly and make horrible noise on windy nights. I had to stuff tissue paper between the window panes to prevent the loud banging and used a blanket against the door to keep the wind out) Other than that, the breakfast was good, the personnel was almost friendly, and the hotel facilities and the lobby were good. I would definitely stay somewhere else in winter.

I discover the Ritter Hotel in the seventies. Never desappointed. Hope it stays like that. I love the Brera zone. Thanks.

Our stay at Ritter was one of the better hotels on our trip - we stayed at 9 different hotels throughout europe. Our room and bathroom was large and spacious and the bonus was it included a pretty great breakfast. Our only complaint was the noise issue from rowdy people outside on the street due to the thin panes on the window. I mention this only because we didnt have this issue anywhere else during our trip. All in all its a great place stay.

The room I had was not soundproof at all, I could hear everything my neighbours did and said. And I guess they could hear me too. Other than that ok.

The reason why we stayed here is because of close location of Japanese restaurant called Osaka. We enjoyed lunch twice and dinner. Funtastic! Good location, but no Wifi.

The location and price are great for Milan. The Staff was excellent. The only issue was load street noise on a Friday night. All other nights were fine.

Elderly room and bathroom, but clean. Needed som paint on the walls. Looking at the price, the hotel was ok.

Breakfast-buffett was excellent.

Good location in a living part of town, day and night, many good restaurants / pizzeria aroun, Walk to Duomo is about 15 minutes

Hotel Ritter was in a good location. However, the rooms were grotty and filthy. Sheets were lovely and clean, the rest of the room had a lot to be desired. The bathroom was a disgrace. The tiles, the shower and toilet were filthy dirty. The ceiling tiles were rotten. Breakfast was not great either. Staff were lovely though.

arrogant service

It's very good for a short stay in Milan: in the centre of the city and easy to reach by the tube; clean and cheap. But it's quite old..so not so confortable, expecially the bathroom

The bathroom is the worse problem, its mouldy and unhygienic. In my opinion, although the hotel has just 3stars is that not acceptable. For me is this accomondaiation not recommend.

I booked a 2-bedded room. It was quite large and clean. There was noise coming from other rooms tubing. Breakfast was satisfactory and, generally speaking, the employees were very helpful. A big problem was the check-in at 14, which is not that comfortable.

very good choice to stay in this hotel, realy very good conditions, good location, easy to find.

I was suspicious for this hotel at first as it had a couple of questionable reviews, my concerns compounded when I saw all the scaffolding outside the hotel. My worries were ungrounded and the service and inside the hotel were welcoming and homely. I opted for the superior room and wasn't disappointed. It was only a little more expensive than the regular room but well worth it. I even compared rooms as my friend had a regular room... that too was nice but the upgrade was worth it. This was my first real taste of Milan and found things easy to find, it's bvest to use the Metro to get around, it's cheap and much better than the London Underground. I would recommend going to Switzerland for the day by train and get the boat down from Locano.... great fun and great views! I will be sure to return to this hotel and Milan in the near future.

This hotel was fine for the final part of our journey in Italy. It was a good value and was within walking distance to the Doumo and other sights.

4 nights, excellent location.

We were 2 non-cosecutive nigths. First one we were in the first floor in a new room. It was comfortable, but the bathroom small. The second night we were in 4th floor in an old room. The bathroom looked like 30 years old, and the tiles were falling down. Breakfast poor. The front of the building was covered by scaffoldings.

Location of this hotel is great. Some rooms must be moderned. Breakfast is OK.

Hotel wasn´t so close to Dome,as they made it look on their web-site,but we don´t care a little walk,so it was o.k.Everything else was positive,but it was quite a surprize to see,that hotel balconys were under renovation,and our balcony couldn´t be used,and also our windows were covered with white plastic.If we would have stayed longer,it would have troubled us much more,but we stayed only two nights and room was really nice.maybe the room was cheaper because of renovation,but it would have been nice to know before!

i stayed in the smalles room i have ever seen. the bed was specially manufactured to fit in the room...smaller than a normal twin. and it was hot and muggy and there was no a/c, nor were there screens on the window so mosquitoes would come in and bite if you kept them open. i would never stay here again
