My extended family stayed in two classic rooms during our first visit to Milan early this year, and were very happy with all aspects of the hotel:
-Service- as expected at a 5star hotel; staff attitude was good despite having to work over the holiday period
-Location- close to all the shopping (mont nap, spiga), and the Last Supper, Duomo
-Rooms- very spacious rooms and bathrooms; even though the non-renovated rooms were a little worn around the edges, they were still pleasingly furnished
-Breakfast is in an elegant dining room, and delicious
Also, great price point for what it is- will definitely stay here again next time we're in town.

I have been staying at the principe many times during the last years as far as my business commtmens take me often in Milano.
I'm not a fan of old grandious hotel as far as i'm more in the modern design.
But i like this hotel very much and it is my favourite spot in Milano even compared to FS or Park hyatt or other hotels where i have been in Milano.

It is conveniently located very close to the Quadrilatero and the main station.
They are continously renovating the hotel; rooms are quite brand new (i have been staying recently in almost 5/10 different rooms) and they are large in size. My last staying i have been in a room that they call "mosaic" room which was so nice. It's a new design, diverse from the rest of the hotel, more contemporary... very nice. This room was my favourite in terms of style but even the smaller... still, was very confortable.
All the room have large flat screen.

There is a nice bar on the ground floor, just on the right after you enter the lobby area there is always whit a vibrant crowd... it has been always full of people and seems to continue on that way. They just renovate the entry and lobby area and the bar will be renovated in a short while.
The Accanto restaurant serve very good food.

This hotel is part of the Dorchester Collection. what i like particularly is that they are updating it costantly...while in my travelling experience i have seen lot of glorious hotels lost in their glory, this is not happening at the Principe that in my opinion get better and better and can compare with the 5 star de luxe hotel in town.
Another positive point is that they have very convenient rate compared to others.... you can find almost always a room for 250/300 euro vs 500/700 of FS, Bulgari or Park Hyatt.....

i reccomend this hotel both for business travellers or turist.

My husband and I do weekend shopping trips in Milan a few times a year and the Principe Di Savoia has become one of our favorite hotels. We arrived right as Men's Fashion Week was beginning, so were lucky that we found a room with a good rate.

Service: Friendly and unpretentious. We had booked through leading hotels and upon check-in, the hotel couldn't find our reservation. No problem--we had the confirmation on our phone and the manager was very quick to find us a room and ensured we got an upgrade. Fantastic--no hassles, no lecturing, no frantic phone calls--they fixed it quietly and quickly. The concierge desk as also helpful with restaurant recommendations. They managed to get us a last-minute reservation at a super-popular and totally booked Michelin restaurant a bit outside of Milan.

Room: We were upgraded to a suite, with small entrance area, sitting room, large bedroom and HUGE marble bathroom, with double-sinks. The view was lousy--looked like an abandoned business district, but we booked for the central location so it was no biggie. Wi-Fi was included in the room and it worked perfectly--no need to wander around trying to find a good connection. The room was decorated in baroque style, with wood and glass sliding doors to separate the sitting area from the bedroom. Very opulent, plush decorations. We overheard a woman in the lobby complaining that the rooms weren't "modern" enough, so if you're expecting modern architecture, clean lines, etc, the Savoia is not the place for you. Lovely room--turn-down service, slippers and we had champagne and snacks waiting for us when we returned later--a gift for booking through leading hotels. Sometimes the gifts are really lousy (hotel cufflinks), but champagne is perfect.

Dining:
We only ate breakfast here, but what a breakfast! Try to make sure it's included in the room rate--if not, it's over 50 Euros per person. There is a huge buffet with everything you can imagine--fresh fruits, champagne, eggs, bacon, waffles, desserts, etc. But in case it's not enough, you can order things like pancakes or eggs benedict from the menu (no additional charge). We ordered 2 eggs benedict--they were a little slow coming out, but the breakfast room is quite nice, so it was relaxing to have a long breakfast with the English newspapers.

Location: 10 minute walk from the main train station, so very easy if you don't have much luggage. And about 10 minutes walk to the main shopping areas. It's not right in the middle of the shopping district, but the metro is right out front.

Overall: A new favorite, with reasonable rates and lovely service. Great breakfast!

Hello from room 314 at the hotel right now where the wireless internet works marvelously (it should as it is not cheap) in what looks like an 18th century room with modern comforts and a super bed.

Gorgeous hotel, 10th floor spa and pool is a wonder in itself. Public spaces remain grand despite renovations. Service is top of the line with an attitude as they know they are better than anyone else. Stores and restaurants respect you more as you are staying here.
