The room was spacious with twin beds and a single bed. It was clean and very comfortable with towels changed daily. Lift was always in working order. The reception staff were polite and friendly. The mini-bar in the room provided the cheapest drinks we had found in Milan however there were no tea and coffee facilities in the bedroom. Breakfast was adequate. The biggest disappointment was the lack of bars/cafe's or the opening/closing times of the cafe bars that existed in the surrounding area. However, it was very close to the metro station which was very convenient to travel into the city centre. Overall good and we would recommend it.

Dismal and Dangerous surroundings, nasty customer service, prostitutes out front and unsafe part of town!! Upon entering the hotel, the feel is more of a dismal and dated apartment building. The foul smell of cigarette smoke comes to mind as the elderly gentleman proceeded to help me. Since I am bilingual I usually speak to staff in English, which gives me the opportunity to understand what they are saying amongst themselves. Since my flight arrived in Milan at 7:30am, I found myself at the Hotel Dore' around 10am. I was told by a young lady at the front desk that check in was at 3pm and that I should return then, and that I was too early, understandable I thought. She gave me a check-in form with lots of fine print, and as any intelligent traveler would do, I proceeded to read it before signing it. Well, she went into a frenzy, telling me no one ever reads the form and that it was common practice to sign it without reading it and that she could not believe I would even think of reading the fine print. Mind you her tone was outright nasty. I explained that if possible I would like to leave my luggage in a secure area, and that I would return later. She showed me to a waiting room where I parked my suitcase and decided to rest for a half hour or so since I had been dragging my luggage off the plane onto a bus, a metro, then a cab without saying 3 connecting flights from Taipei. What I heard later from the young lady was outright disgusting, she continued to harp and criticize how Americans are all so typical and non-trusting. she exclaimed of all travelers Americans are her least favorite. It went on for 20 minutes. I remained silent. I left the hotel to get a sandwich and returned around noon time. I was then given a key to a room on an upper floor. Upon entering the room, I was amazed to find the entire room was slightly wider than its 40" inch doorway. The single bed was perhaps 36" inches wide. By american standards this would be considered a narrow CLOSET. It did have a stand-up shower, which seemed re-tiled in the last 5 years. Breakfast consist of mediocre warm coffee, and self serve juice, the worst chemical tasting juice you ever had, the frozen concentrated type pink in color that swirls in a big warm vat. I could not even remotely decifer what flavor it was. The Breakfast consisted of pre-packaged stale pastries that were expired, along with the smallest 2 ounce yogurt containers you have ever seen. This place charged me 80 Euros a night, equivalent to 120 U.S. dollars not bad right for Milan? Once you are in this type of hotel you realize it is the lowest of the scale and not even worth half the price. I could not unpack my bag that is how small the room was. The bed was super hard, plywood type with a 3 inch pad on it. The blanket was insufficient since the room was also cold for this time of year. On 2 separate occasions I asked the front desk for information and was treated rudely. If you happen to return to the hotel after 10 or 11pm from dinner, the hotel front door is locked and the attendant is usually asleep in the waiting room on the sofa. When he buzzes you in, he will display that he is upset to have been awoken. You will need to patiently wait amongst the soliciting prostitutes hoping the pickpocketers lurking on the corner do not decide to rob you. STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOTEL AT ALL COST! It is not worth risking your LIFE! or wasting your money. Needless to say I will never return or forget how DREADFUL this place really is. Who gives out the stars for hotels??? I think they are self-appointed in Italy by the hotel.

Me and 3 of my girl-friends stayed at the hotel dore i Milan last April. We chose it primarily because it was one of the few hotels that offered quad rooms. We were expecting the room to be tiny but were so pleasantly surprised.The room was bright and very spacious with a lovely balcony. My only issue was with shower which sometimes leaked all over the batroom floor but generally spaeking, the room was perfect, no need to feel depressed in it like in some city hotels.The hotel itself was fine. The staff were okay, not overly helpful bt not rude or anything, the breakfast room was tiny and you sid feel you were being watched alittle in terms of how much food you were eating!In terms of location, fantastic, right off corso buenos aires and literally a30 sec walk from the metro stop. At night there were prostituteson the street a little further down from the hotel but this really didnt bother us, we got taxis from the duomo area and back every nght, ony ever about 8 euros,.I would 100% recommend this hotel and go back again. It was much bigger and nicer than anywhere ive sayed for similar price in London or Paris

What a great little hotel, within walking distance to the metro and all the sights Milan has to offer. We stumbled on this place online, hurriedly trying to find a place for the night and we were very pleasantly surprised with the cleanliness of the rooms. Very comfortable and with breakfast included how could we refuse!

nous avons dormi 3 nuits a milan a l'hotel dore (3*).celui ci est tres recent et extremement propre (la femme de menage brossait un tapis a 4 pattes lors de notre arrivee!!! ).nous avions une quad avec un lit queen size et 2 lits 1 pers ;les literies sont de tres bonne facture ;une table ronde une coiffeuse et 2 chaises agrementent la chambre dans les tons verts;la salle de bains comprend une douche un lavabo et moins bien les wc; le linge de toilette est change tous les jours une petite cour interieure qui doit etre agreable l'ete agremente le RDC.le petit dejeuner que l'on prend dans une petite salle au RDC est indigne de l'etablissement qui sans cela serait proche du sans faute en effet vous etes limite a une boisson chaude par personne(les cafes italiens sont tres petits)et por manger il y a juste des biscottes et 1 croissant par personne; nous avons du acheter du pain a la boulangerie et ca ne les a pas derange.quand on a goute un petit dej dansun holiday inn express on est deçu!!! sinon l'hotel est tres bien plaçe a 50 metres dela station loreto qui dessert tres bien le centre et la gare.le quartier est sympa et il y a deja des boutiques et des cafes pres de l'hotel. je recommanderai cet hotel sans probleme mais un detour par la pasticceria s'impose si vous voulez petitdejeuner a la française
