Luca and the staff were fantastic. It was right next to the metro and bus station. There were good restaurants in the area. The happy hour complimentary food was fantastic.

Good location if you want to be close to Milano Centrale station. 5 min walking distance to the station and about 30min to the Duomo. Front desk customer service is just ok if you are Asian. I don’t recommend this hotel to Asian tourists even you speak English Only one gentleman was friendly. I didn’t get the name though. He worked on Sunday morning around 11am. He was younger gentleman there with dark hair. They are not that friendly to Asian tourists. They are only there to just check you in and out. Room is very clean and daily free water bottle is plus. Comfort level of mattress and pillows are ok. Didn’t have any problem. Noise at night time is very bad (Room 412). You can hear people talking from street and loud music from street. My husband and I stayed sunday and Monday nights. Both nights were loud. Do not stay room facing main Street. Now I’ll be writing the reason why I wouldn’t come back to this hotel and why I do not recommend this place to east Asian or anyone who’s against racism and ethical customer service. I was ok until I started to noticed something weird and started feel very uncomfortable and bothered by staffs there especially one gentleman. Staffs were very friendly to all guests except Asian guests. I didn’t want that to bother my trip so I ignored it first day. But second day I’ve noticed same thing from that same staff and decided to write this review. Because of how he made me feel during my breakfast I’m giving one star!

Response from Sharon Mariani - Guest Relations Manager on Mar 8, 2024
Dear Heather,We really care about the opinions of all our guests, positive or negative, and will always try to improve from all feedbacks but although always open to every criticism and suggestions that our guests can freely express, the accusations of racism made against us can not be absolutely accepted and tolerated.We are deeply honored and grateful to welcome guests from all over the world, our staff is made of different nationalities, and for the record including Asians, and we would never allow to judge or treat differently any guest or other person.Always respectful of different customs and cultures, our attention to the guest and our sense of hospitality do not change depending on the origin!The exchange and interaction with guests from all over the world continues to be a source of continuous enrichment for all of us.If we made a mistake towards you is to have failed to convey our passion to you in depth and on this, apologizing for the discomfort we have caused you, certainly we will work to improve even more.Incidentally, we could also request the removal of your review, being clearly in violation of the ethical codes provided by Expedia but we preferred to respond publicly to demonstrate our absolute moral correctness and professionalismBut please do not repeat the accusation of being racist, otherwise we will be forced to go to court.Kind regards

If you prefer your hotel to be more traditional than modern. The Hotel Berna is ideal. The staff are very welcoming and friendly, and the location can't be beaten.

There is an “after hours” club in a massage parlor adjacent and under the rooms. Loud music and shouting until past 3:00 AM was disruptive both nights we were there. Front desk knew that this would occur and still placed us directly above the party. Offered to let us move at 2:00 AM but my point is that they should never rent this room (112) unless full and to call the police as soon as possible. They did neither. Very poor hosts. Offered to comp my 17 E bar bill. I declined.

We've stayed here twice, and almost everything is perfect - walkable from the train station, central location to Milan's amazing attractions, gracious facility and staff, hors d'oeuvres abundant enough to be dinner with your wine in the lounge, and the best breakfast ever! One thing: Do not choose the (more expensive) room breakfast option if you have to leave before breakfast is officially served. (Malpensa airport is an hour away, so look carefully at your time.) The "boxed breakfast" we were given in its place (in November of 2023) was packaged convenience-store snacks, not a hot meal packed in a to-go box. Save your money (and disappointment), and pay for only the room, then go to a convenience store on your own. I will plan my time better in the future so I don't miss their marvelous morning meal.

This hotel is perfect if you want to stay close to the central station. My family stayed for 5 nights and we are very happy with the breakfast and room. The staff are very friendly. Front desk allowed us to check-in at 11am. Three of us stayed at the deluxe room on the 3rd floor. The room is very new (newly renovated) and spacious (including the bathroom). Mini bar are free and they also gave us bottles of water every day. Breakfast are great! The only problem is the bar across from the hotel. We can hear them until 2-3am in the morning with people talking and the noise from the super car engines. However, the hotel is very close to the Central station and we will go back to Hotel Berna again if we get a chance to go to Milan in the future.

Dear president of hotel Berna I stayed your beautiful hotel room 553 in Dec 11-23 ~outDec -14-24 three nights I made payment on Nov 9th-23 full amount USD 334.83 through my travel agent Expedi** When checked out your employee needed to pay only city tax 15 euros for three nights and made payment by my credit card . But Your hotel charged unauthorized USD260.27 without my consent… I sent email your hotel for requie refund .This is absolutely not fair and shame on your hotel good reputation. Please refund my USD 260.27 asap.

We got to the hotel late at night and the person at the front desk was not nice. They put us in different buildings, I was traveling with my sons, I requested to have everyone in the same building and they said no. When I said I was going to another hotel, they offered both rooms in the same building, the rooms were available the whole time. The rooms were old and smelly, request a renovated room. Because of my status with hotels.com, they were supposed to upgrade me but they didn’t want to. Bad experience!

They have old smelly rooms and they have renovated rooms. They put me in an old room because they said all renovated rooms were taken. When I said I was going to a different hotel and was decided to leave, they gave me the renovated room. They wasted my time going back and forth. Because of my status with hotels.com, I was supposed to be upgraded but they didn’t want to do that. The front desk service was bad, I will never stay in this hotel again.
