We flew to Bergamo and got airport transfer to Milan. It drops you at the train station which involves a short metro ride and walk to get to the hotel. Its approx 15 min direct walk to the main piazza/ shopping area so the location suited us fine. Its a modern building with a well maintained reception area, lovely breakfast... more

My Mom and I stayed at the Ariston on June 14-15, 2009. The location is awesome. Right down the road from the Duomo and located on one of the shopping streets. It's a small, modern boutique hotel with a great staff. The man at the reception desk was really friendly and there was a porter right there ready to take... more

Generally no big problems with this hotel. The location was convenient, and everything was very clean. My room (single) was fine in size, although I was the exception - all of my colleagues were in incredibly small rooms. I had been attracted by the 'eco hotel' status, but sadly saw little evidence of this. Air conditioning was on as standard,... more

OK, before leaving the UK I forgot to unblock the bar on my mobile phone, meaning I couldn`t make or receive any calls (not good for my business appointments), so I had no choice but to use the bedside phone. A 5min call to the UK cost £35, which I discovered upon my return home(ouch). You have been warned. The... more

Booked the hotel after learning its "eco-friendly" ideology and reading about it on TripAdvisor. It was an adequate stay -- pretty close to the attractions and definitely still safe walking back late at night and has tram stops just outside of the hotel (a post office too). Breakfast was good, with ham/salami, cheeses, spreads, variety of breads, fruits, coffee &... more

With only 10 minutes walk down a key shopping street to Milan central, the Ariston was a compact but excellent choice for our short stay. We were travelling with a young child and the triple room was small but very nice. Breakfast was very good and staff willing to assist with local recommendations. more

We decided to stay in Milan one extra day and our hotel had no room so they recommended the Ariston Hotel. It was great, staff was very friendly and helpful. 140 euros a night . it is a new clean, fun, great breatfast. Best location possible for everything. Went to soccer game AC Milano vs Inter Milano. Fantastic!!! got tickets... more

The Hotel Ariston seemed like the best bet for the sights we wanted to see, and it turned out to be a short walk indeed from there to the Sforza castle, the cathedral, La Scala, Santa Maria della Grazie, the Ambrosiana library, and so on; also, hard by is a great neighborhood full of restaurants and pubs, and we even... more
