This was my second stay here, the first was many years ago and was much better. Hotel desk clerk at check-in bordered on rude, certainly not interested in welcoming new guests. Service was poor but not becasue a lack of effort by the one staffer who drove the airport shuttle, provided room delieries of extra pillows, served as bartender and... More

This hotel is less than a kilometre from Malpensa Airport, Milan but a world away in ambience. Formerly a beautiful home, it has gracious charm, lovely big rooms and an excellent dining room to soothe the weary traveller. The wine list is enormous and varied. On our stay in April, 2012 there was no sign of the shabbiness and poor... More

Once this was the main hotel near to malpensa airport until the airport expanded and the franchise hotels came. Unfortunately the staff have failed to keep pace with the level of service of a modern hotel. The location is perfect, so close to malpensa you could walk there, but no noise of planes. Beautiful building and surroundings even if room... More

Same room as last time: again the bath door doesn't close, the fabrics in this room show aging, like I sad of other details. Kind personell and clean room. In winter they shut heating in unused floors, what makes hard changing room if you're unsatisfied. The restaurant -not cheap- remains the good highlight of this place. The room for business... More

Among Malpensa Airport hotels, this one offers you an old style, rather elegant setting. The villa is magnificent, but architects who renovated it had no respect for it. THe same can be said by the management: details like lifts' buttons, room door's handles, shower fences are horribly aging. My room was clean. I saw nice fabrics, in good state. The... More

I have chosen this hotel because It was said that there is a swimming pool in it. But when arrived, I was said that "its out of order". So you can imagine hoe disappointed I was, minding the temperature was +28C and I came earlier from Milan to take a swim)) The hotel itself is cute from outside, but has... More

We have overnighted at this hotel several times since 2000, when I discovered it in Karen Brown's Guides (be very wary of her picks, always). I wrote a review of our last visit a couple of years ago, and it was our worst visit to the hotel. We have just returned from a return visit (only because it is so... More

Excellent front desk service upon arrival. The room was large, basic & clean. The hotel is within a mile of MXP yet quiet. It is a beautiful building & has lovely pool & grounds. More

First Impression like a Grand Hotel, nice park, nice Old Villa, good location. I just been there for one night, person in reception very lazy, seems that I disturb him. Just went to room, OMG, TV not working, very small bed, no blanket and no extra pillow, was very cold and I cannot on the heater. Lift carpet very dirty,... More
