If you're considering this hotel - it must be because you need to travel by train from the central station. And for that, this hotel is excellent. Everything else is ok, and not any more than that. Rooms are small, and the street noise will wake you up early in the morning (good if you need to take an early... more

We had only one night in Milan. Coming into town by train and leaving from Malpensa so we wanted to minimize hassle. The best thing about the hotel was the location, about 1.5 block from the train station, otherwise i would avoid it. The rooms feature this odd wide striped wall paper and have tiny bathrooms. The tv was about... more

I was very surprised to read the positive reviews I just read on this site because they totally contradict with the awful experience we had at Hotel Garda in Milan. Even the pictures I took of the room are different than the charming romantic room posted on the hotel's main website. Following are the details of our experience: 1. The... more

The price and location were both good for me as I ended a 10 day trip of Italy. Close to the train station (especially fortuitious as there was a transportation strike the day I left so I could walk to station), 2 McDonalds, an internet cafe, restaurants. If you're up for a walk, it's a healthy 1/2 hour to Duomo... more

The excellent location (next to the Stazione Centrale) and its proximity to the metro line made Hotel Garda a good choice. Further along, the nice and helpful staff made it even a better choice. But what made it a great choice was the room itself: large, clean and with a very big bathroom (also very clean). The breakfast was also... more

We spent a few nights in this hotel in March 2008 with 4 of us. It is very-very close to the train station, but we could not see the usual bad faces around ... ok, some of them, but we did not feel scary at all, the area is much more safer then what you would expect from the neighborhood... more

Nice place to stay if you are needing to be close to the train station. My boyfriend and I only stayed for one night and arrived by train. We needed each to be at two different airports early the next morning so opted to stay close to the station so we could take the buses to the airports from the... more

What do you want from your vacations? Relax, not many concerns and most of the issues running smoothly. Here is the place for all the above. The hotel gives all that is supposed to. You ask for 3 stars, you get 3 stars (in our case I believe 3,5 stars). The front desk is very nice, very helpful, informing and... more

I arrived earlier than I was supposed, but the hotel was very accomodating in getting my room organised much earlier than it was supposed to be. The staff speak English really well, which is a relief in a non-English speaking country. Generally the staff were very friendly and helpful and went out of their way to help. I did feel... more
