I just spent 3 nights at Il Girasole, and can't think of anything negative to say about it. The hosts went out of their way to help me with any and all questions. The room was clean and quiet and unique, and had a small kitchenette. The neighborhood was off the beaten path; and an easy, direct subway ride to... More

I really can't say enough about Il Girasole and Nicola and Matteo. I had just arrived after a 20+ hour trip and they made me feel welcome and comfortable. The room was spotless and was much bigger and nicer than I expected for a single/standard. I could not believe there was a little kitchenette! It was such a good experience... More

We came for less than 24 hours to see the James Taylor concert at the nearby Teatro Archimboldi. Thanks to Trip Advisor, I found this lovely hotel. I emailed ahead to ensure it was as close to the venue as I thought, ask for dinner recommendations, etc. I am not sure which brother replied or which one met us at... More

We stayed in this hotel in March 2012. It is a reconstructed bicycle manufacturing facility that has been totally reconstructed by two brothers as a bed and breakfast. Although it is basic, it was absolutely immaculate in all respects. It is an area off the beaten track in Milan but a short 14 minute underground ride to the Duomo/shopping section... More

Brothers Nicola and Matteo were the most welcoming hosts and insured our time in Milan was most enjoyable. Would highly recommend this gem of a b and b/hotel. In a city were accommodations are extremely expensive this place was very affordable. Would definitely stay here again. More

We stayed 3 nights while visiting EICMA. If you have no car while in Milano proximity to a Metro stop is crucial. Girasole has that. From Malpensa you just take the train to Cadorna, and then the M1 Red line to the San Giovanni stop. Easy, cheap and quick. The hotel is about 100m from the Metro stop (a bit... More
