Hotel Ritter - Milan

7.0

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

8.2

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.

7.5

It was pretty nice hotel with good surrounding..

8.7

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.

7.7

cheep one, convinient one

6.6

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.

7.4

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.

6.9

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.

8.6

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.

4.7

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...

8.5

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.

8.8

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.

8.4

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

6.8

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.

9.2

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

6.9

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

8.0

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

8.9

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...

8.7

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

8.1

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!

9.9

A very nice hotel, the service was excellent.

8.7

Tutto bene!!!

8.9

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.

6.1

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!

6.2

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

8.5

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.

7.1

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.

4.6

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

7.6

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.

6.8

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.

7.6

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.

9.6

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

1.4

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.

6.8

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!

8.7

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.

7.6

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

5.5

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

0.7

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.

7.4

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.

7.0

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.

6.2

people are not so kind, but the room are big

5.5

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.

9.2

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

8.3

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.

6.1

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.

7.2

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.

9.0

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.

8.5

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

9.3

Breakfast-buffett was excellent.

8.1

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

4.0

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.

3.8

arrogant service

8.6

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

0.4

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.

8.6

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.

10

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

9.7

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.

7.6

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.

9.5

4 nights, excellent location.

3.9

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.

7.5

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

8.8

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!

4.2

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

7.9

Very decent hotel. The room was very big, we got a family room with two bedrooms even though there were only two of us. The hotel itself is a bit dated. It is not really a romantic getaway, but if your visiting the city and you want a decent hotel for a good price at a great location this is a good option for you.

3.9

it's not a nice hotel... you can hear your neighbours, rooms aren't realy clean, the pictures don't show the real standard... I wouldn't stay there once again. the Duomo isn't so near as they say... it's good for one night, not longer. it's a little bit depressing

2.8

I have hated because the was pulces at our beds and I got really an alergy. I have e-mailed the hotel about that and also I would like a refund and never had any answer. I hope you could help me with that. It is just disgusting to have pulces at your room. It was the first time that it happens with me.

8.0

the room was Spacious...and the location is good. no lamps at the seeling...

8.4

Good accesibility: walking distance beteen Brera Gallery, Catholic parish where I went every morning, and Teatro alla scala. Water spills came out of the batroom and a wood cabinet in the room was a littel bit damaged.

9.0

Very old, but perfectly clean and safe. It was very easy to walk to shopping and the Duomo from the hotel. For this cheap, you really can't beat it.

9.4

The Ritter Hotel has got absolutely excellent service; as for the reception - competent and helpful staff with surprisingly good English speaking skills. Great thanks to www.venere.com for having such a nice hotel and thanks to the Ritter hotel for a marvelous stay in Milan.

5.4

Convenient location and overall good value. Major problem was that the plumbing has problems and we were hardly able to sleep due to the continuous sound of running water through the night. When we informed the hotel desk they said they would take care of it but to no avail.

4.6

it was very noisy. i stayed 2 nights in this hotel and will not stay there again. the breakfast was ok - the location also.

7.8

No elevator, a long haul up to the hotel above a theatre.

7.9

The hotel was good value for money.The rooms were clean, the breakfast was delicious and the personal very kind.

8.6

Trouble with television and internet

8.8

Hotel staff at reception is not very helpful and polite (esp old man). Breakfast is perfect, location as well. When at arrival I spoke an idea to cancel the 4th night of my stay at a hotel(which corresponds to hotel's policy to cancel the reservation not later than 3 days before) I was told that the hotel is already paying a very high comission to Venere and that our price is almost free-of-charge, so we had to pay the 4th night though we left the hotel a day earlier.

7.3

The actual property from outside looks better than photo on web. The location is excellent with Moscova metro station so close. Most of the staffs very attentive and professional. The bakery just above the metro station is also a fantastic spot (try pizza or one of small tarts and you'll know what I mean) -walking over there for breakfast seemed better an option than eating at the hotel where the coffee was below average. We did experience a somewhat mysterious treatment at the hotel but I guess that's part of being in Italy and were not that upset. We stayed for two nights but had to book each night separately on Venere because, according to the system, none of the room was available for two consecutive nights. This meant we had to do the check-out and check-in again on the second day. We asked anyway whether the room we stayed for the first night was available but was told it was already booked. Fair enough. However, we found out during our second check-in that the first room was not occupied. Could we not stay, especially with our luggage still left in the room waiting for some staff to move to our new room (hotel offered the service but no one had done it)? But the hotel decided we cannot take the room because 'there is a problem with shower.' As far as we know the shower was working absolutely fine up until the morning. Strange. Anyway, they located us into a triple-bedroom for the second night. It was obviously more spacious than a double room but less clean and tired, made us wish all the more to stay in the same room as the first night.

8.7

very good location. good for shopping for daily life and gift goods. I stayed in room 214, which is by the street, noisy at night; and moved to room 103, by the community side, very quite. Only one old computer in lobby can connect internet, but only few languages are available, and low speed. Staff are nice.

7.7

It's not a fancy hotel but the room was clean and properly serviced. You can tell that it's an old hotel, but for the price (69 Euros), I thought it was a pretty good value. It's also located in a pretty cool area with lots of bars and restaurants. Breakfast was pretty good - cereal, bread, cold cuts, egg, pastries, cookies, yoghurt, etc. We had a room facing the street and on one of the nights it was very noisy with garbage and reclycle trucks. I'd recommend asking for a room in the quiet side. The other nights were OK - not super quiet but not too bad either.

8.0

i think it is better to work a little to the welcoming. the location is excellent!

7.8

Very comfortable and clean room; the hotel is very close to Moscova metro station and to Arena Civica,for those who need to go there for shows.Excellent breakfast.

6.7

Very good location. Breakfast was good. Need more hooks in bathroom.

8.3

Room was VERY clean, shower, bathroom, bed, all very pleasant. Definitely a budget structure/building, but everything you could want/expect for the price.

3.7

I was quite appalled with this hotel and the grouchy old bastard manning the front desk. The rooms were tidy but not clean, mould throughout the bathroom. Internet cost 1 euro per hour, so you pay 1 euro if you use it for 5 minutes and they do not give you credit, so you keep having to pay each time, that is when the internet worked anyway. I politely told the man at the front at the front desk that the internet was not working and his response was 'yes, I don't know why' and that was it. The vending machine on our floor also did not work. The next day I had to see a doctor as I had contracted an ear infection (probably from the pillows) and I asked the rude man again where a doctor was thinking he would assist me. His reply was a curt 'No doctors here, you have to go to first aid' he then actually turned his back to me and busied himself without offering any further assistance, not even directions to a doctor, hospital or the supposed first aid. The location was about a 10 minute walk to the Duomo which was great but I would not stay at this hotel again if you paid me! Look elsewhere, there are much better hotels available in Milan.

8.8

The only thing Ive missed in Ritter was a permanent open bar for take lunch or snacks.

9.6

The location of this hotel was excellent, very close to the Brera. The staff at the hotel couldn't have been nicer or more helpful! The room was very large, especially by European standards. I do have to say that the pillows were more like rocks than pillows and could use a little upgrading...Overall, I would give the hotel a B++, and I would definitely stay there again.

8.3

For the rate I got, I was expecting something pretty basic. When we got there I was very pleased. It made a good base for a couple of nights seeing Milan before the rest of our trip. We didn't have many needs to ask them about, but the staff was very friendly. The breakfast was very nice with meat and cheese as well as sweets. The immediate location was fine, but not compelling. Very easy walking to the Brera district or to the Duomo. Close to the metro stop on the line between the Cadorna and Central stations, so connections to Malpensa and trains south were both easy.

7.7

The hotel had a Subway station very nearly (3 min aprox.). The breakfast is correctly

7.2

Everything was fine, but parking is too expensive (35 EUR per day)

9.2

This hotel is a great value. We stayed for 7 nights in the first week of May and found the location to be one of the best. Within walking distance to almost everything you would want for vacation experience. The breakfast was adequate (although the breakfast room was uncomfortably hot). The superior room was spacious for a European 3 star hotel and the staff were superior in their efforts to help us. Internet was slow but it was convenient to have it on site.

6.8

hotel is in excellent position near metro station moscova and only 15 min from city center by feet. rates are very good for milano. quality is not the best of course. so value for money is ok!

9.1

the hotel was fub. excellent price for its location.loved the breakfast and the cleaners were very kind and funny.the receptions that welcomed us was so nice.we loved staying at the hotel.the room were spacious and the location couldn't be more perfect:near the central and duomo and surrounded by restaurants, pubs and supermarket..it was great.when i'llcame back to miln i will certanly stay at Ritter Hotel.

8.1

Hotel has very good location near to shopping areas and center of the city. Breakfast in hotel was very good. Third bed in the room was poor and we did not have a carpet in the room. When I visit Milan again, I will return to the same hotel.

8.7

The staff were so helpful. It's a nice hotel i would definately recommend.

4.6

We were able to find the ritter hotel fairly easily. On arrival the reception staff were friendly and helpful however some of their local knowledge turned out to be poor. We were looking for a bar in the local area showing football. We were sent on a wild goosechase - we eventually found one oursleves which was only about 5 minutes from the hotel. The room was spacious on 4th floor and had a balcony. The bathroom was smaller. The general condition of the room was poor with broken plaster, thick dust in some places a fridge which did not appear to work and the furniture was quite shabby. However the bed was comfortable with clean white sheets so no problems there. Unable to take a bath as no plug. The breakfast at the ritter hotel was good, good choice and plenty to eat, food was fresh and set us up well for the day. We were not sure if we were in a superior or standard room - we had booked and paid for a superior room so maybe we had been down graded for some reason. The hotel's location was generally good though it was quite noisy early in the morning with local traffic.

9.7

Great location, about 2 minutes walk to subway. Room was clean, front desk was helpful, bathroom good, breakfast was good. For the price, I don't think you can beat it. There were 2 elevators so you never had to wait. You could buy cold beer/water/sodas on each floor in a vending machine.

4.3

-) Rooms are pretty loud. -) Photos are not reality, rooms are very unpretty.

8.3

There was a certain amount of noise occasionally at night. Overall though, we enjoyed our stay.

7.9

room is not the same as on web pages! But in general price (60 eur)/quality is ok.

8.9

We were impressed with the breakfast. The room was big, it was clean, it also had a fridge in the room. Great location.
