We stayed there two nights. The first night we were given a room on the street and it was unpossible to sleep, very noisy untill two in the morning. The window was in a very bad condition (so you could hear really everything from the street) and the room extremely small and gave us a sense of dirt. The second night we were given a room not facing the street, the room was new and clean but again very very small. The area does not look very safe. We travel to Milan twice per year but I will never stay here again.

Main points:

it has a lift which, having travelled around Italian 3-star hotels for a month, is not a given.

The desk staff speak generally good English.

There is internet access on a sliding cost scale (up to 6 hours for 8 euros) with cabled ASDL access in the rooms or wireless in the foyer - but only if you have a laptop.

There's a decent verandah for sunny days.

Certain rooms have a lot of street noise, others at the back less so.

The bedrooms are very clean and some have baths with a shower attachment rather than just a stand-up shower (room 108, for example).

TV offers the range of Sky Italia fare for free (including movies in Engish).


Breakfast was a buffet, decent enough range but have had better at this level.

Overall, a good bet for the city and opposite a train station serving the centre directly.

Some limited car parking inside and on the street.

Hotel was in an ideal location to get into centre of Milan and surrounding area's, was right on top of Buses and Train Station, which the service's were excellent. The Hotel Staff where friendly and very helpful with all our questions, where able to book different excursions, and did detailed map of finding our way around.

Overall very happy with our stay at Valganna, would definately recommend this to our friends and family as it was very reasonable and the Breakfast was good.
