Doria Grand Hotel is overall, a good place to stay. The property is near the Milano Central Station, approximately 10 minutes walk. It is also near the Metro station which we used to go back and forth around the Duomo and other attractions at the center of Milan.
The rooms are nice and clean. We got two connecting rooms. One room for my wife and I and the other room for our kids ages 13 and 11 which they loved.
The staff were really nice and hospitable. It is also nice that they have a restaurant which was helpful when we were too tired to go out and find a place where we can eat. There are good restaurants nearby but it was convenient for us to stay in. It was raining at that time. They also serve breakfast with decent selections. It was certainly nice to fill the tank before exploring the city.
The only negative is that there is still only one elevator that is available for guests. It was pretty busy when we were there particularly during breakfast hours, so it can be a long wait. I hesitated to book here after reading some reviews when I was looking for a hotel. I still booked it thinking it will be fixed by the time we stayed. It wasn’t. Luckily, a staff was kind to let use their service elevator which we did a couple of times when we have a booking at the Duomo and in a rush But we did not want to always use it since the staff use it.
Other than the elevator, it is really a nice and convenient place to stay and the price is reasonable.
