It was our first stay at this hotel, we were coming to visit Milan, me my wife and my son (18). The hotel is near the Duomo and the city center, if you take the subway. At the reception they are very nice. Because we had to wait for our triple room they gave us a suite!!! At the end of our stay they offered us the car parking!!!

Il solo punto debole resta la colazione. C'è un po' di tutto ma sembra piuttosto scadente come qualità e questo stona con il livello dell'albergo che invece sembra ed è una struttura più che confortevole. Il personale, sia alla reception che in sala colazione, è molto migliorato nel tempo e ultimamente è più accogliente e cordiale. Lo consiglierei senza dubbio, nonostante la distanza dal centro, anche considerando che la fermata della metro si trova praticamente all'uscita dell'albergo.

Rooms are Ok. Upgrading into a Suite. Quality of the breakfast buffet was very bad and the personnel in the breakfast room breakfast very stressed. The Hotel is not so easy to find even the highway is not far from the Hotel. Very good is the connection to the center with the u-tube just 100 meters from the Hotel. Also very good was the quality of the bed.

Good hotel. Good value. Except.... the rather miserable and cheap Mistral hotel, just round the corner, gives you internet access for just 5 euros for 24 hrs. The Santa Barbara, at San Donato, gives you 24 hours for 12 euros. Here, it is a RIDICULOUS 20 euros! With the same Swisscom company that the Santa Barbara use. This is way over the top, and a real consideration if you have to use the internet and are after a reasonably priced hotel.

Hotel very good situated, only half a street away from the underground and 5mins travelling by underground to the centre of the city (same line to Duomo). Breakfast included with a great variety, it´s all you can eat. The only thing is that the restaurants inside the hotel are a little bit expensive, but you can find restaurants near the hotel at good prices. The staff is very polite and they help you with anything you need. My family and I enjoy so much our stay and I will definitely come back to the same hotel

Great location, very close to Linate airport, and 10 min by subway from center of town. Huge, spacious room, modern shape, well furnished. Easy to get to hotel, for a good price. Only negative is that there is parking in the basement, but there is no discount for hotel customers, so it comes out pretty expensive. However, there is on-street parking which isn't too hard to find a block or two walking distance.

Apart from the fact that the cleaning staff left my door wide open for several hours with all my belongings in the room, having totally disregarded the 'do no disturb' sign and then did not do my laundry, instead prefering to leave it behingd the front desk, then leaving the cleaning materials and dirty towels still in the bathroom was MOST DISAPPOINTING. Apart from that the usual national offering for breakfast was inedible and the overall experience left me wishing I was elsewhere

everything was really nice and pleasent, the only thing that is bad is if you are in a tourist plan it is a little far, even though it has a metro outside in the corner. But there was a metro strike and we have to take a taxi that is very expensive.

Generally good,rooms clean, staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast good too. It was the end of April and quite warm but the air conditioning was not allowed to be switched on (govt regulations) which made for an uncomfortable stay. We opened the windows but were right above the front entrance and so it became noisy. Range of TV channels limited. Driveway to carpark is very narrow and curvy.

What a great experience! This is the best deal in Milan, it is a bit outside of the city but very easy to get to via the metro (3 euro for a whole day of rides). It was the best bed I have slept in in 4 months of traveling Europe. Everything was better than expected, would highly recommend!

My husband and I were so disappointed with this hotel that we cut short our stay. The room smelled like old smoke and urine. We were concerened about the security because when you leave the hotel for the day, you give your key to the person at the front desk to place in this slot with your room number. We watched as people came in and simply asked for the key to a room and were never asked to show some form of identification. We had a difficult time finding this hotel. The location is in a rather distressed neighborhood. We tried to eat in the restaurant but we could not eat the food because the place was dirty. I would never recommend this hotel to anyone. The write up, pictures, comments etc. on this hotel and the reality are like night and day.

Viaggiando sola per lavoro lo Starhotels business palace è perfetto poichè trovi tutto all'interno della struttura senza dover uscire. L'unico "neo" è il servizio serale al ristorante che, per lo standard qualitativo trovato, risulta veramente scadente poichè lento e poco professionale. Comunque è un albergo dove tornare!

It is a good hotel and just a few steps from the underground station. The breakfast is great and the rooms are spacious and quiet. But the reception staff were rude, somewhat. When I get to the hotel to check in it was 13:00 and one of the employees told me that they may not have a room ready even after 2 PM despite the fact that I reserved this hotel a month before my arrival date. I argued with them and hopefuly they accomodated us by 14:00.

I travelled to Milan for family reasons. We stayed two nights, had dinner the first evening and both breakfasts at the hotel. We were a party of three adults and two children (one 4 years, the other 10 months) and the hotel staff were pleasant and most helpful with luggage, high chairs, food requests, etc. We had a large car and the hotel underground parking was a little tight, especially the access and exit ramps. Beware of the door stop in the bathroom, it is at the foot of the toilet. Still overall the hotel was ideally located for our purpose, the services we used were totally satisfactory.

For one night stay in Milan before flying home, this hotel was perfect. We came in from the train station on the Metro and the hotel in literally at the top of the stairs after you come off the Metro. We had just enough time to take the Metro into the city and see some of the sights. The shuttle was not available for us on the weekend, but the hotel provided a great taxi service to the airport for a good price. The staff was very friendly and helpful. For the price this Hotel is great. I would stay again.

It was a fine hotel. The rooms were a bit dated, but we found it very convenient to get into the city and they had on-site parking. It is not near the Milpensa Airport, so be sure you know which airport you are flying out of. Also, our toilet was broken, which they were not able to fix during our stay. The conceirge was very nice and helpful. She made wonderful suggestions for dinner.

As we were attending a wedding there were 12 in our party using twin & double rooms. We found the hotel to be excellent. Breakfast could be improved, but apart from that everything else was excellent. Staff were most helpful in all respects. Hotel is a little out of the city but that was no problem as the metro was literally around the corner and fares are very reasonable. Air conditioning was great, no noise, great rooms what more can one ask for. I will certainly book in here again.

Peter Boorman

Very slow check-in; the allocation of the room had to be changed twice, after intervention by the agent's colleagues. ("problems with the water"). Friendly, helpful attitude of all the staff with whom I inter-reacted. Excellent air-conditioning in the room, by European hotel standards. But I was bitten to pieces by mosquitoes during the course of the night - so, suggest you either advise your clientele accordingly or provide killer-sprays in the rooms.
