Centrale Station is huge, and there’s a lot to like about it. There’s plenty of shops here, places to eat and fairly easy to find your way around. Being the biggest station in town also means that it attracts all types of people, and I felt I needed to be vigilant at all times. Could do with a larger police/security presence.

We were at Florence station and when we reach Milan station, we can see a difference. Milan station seems to be harder to access if you happen to approach it from a wrong direction. However, there seems to be a few levels at Milan station which different shops and eateries so can get a bit confusing. Plus side is that Milan Metro is linked to this station.

Classic terminal train station with the ability to walk around the trains - and not have to lug luggage up stairs between platforms. The busiest northern Italian station with some wonderful architecture. Some confusion with 3 rail companies - Trenitalia, Trenord and Italo - sometimes difficult to plant trips. Also when cancellations occur, the information boards do not always provide clear information in either Italian or English!

I have been to Milan Central Train Station several times in the last few days. I found it to be more organized and cleaner than most stations. There seems to be plenty of staff to help with directions and provide helpful information. There are also two kiosks on the platforms to assist with ticket changes.

The hotel was above expectations and was very clean with a very good bed. It also had a great rooftop pool and bar. The staff were excellent from the manager to the cleaners. Nothing was too much trouble for them when a request was made. The Meja Restaurant was also very good with excellent staff. Will definitely miss the lychee martinis.

Clean, orderly, reasonably well maintained, easy to negotiate once you’ve I’ve been there just a few minutes. This was a station with 19th century architecture and appropriately chosen shops. Why can’t stations in the States be more like this?

Came here on a train from Rome. Smooth exit from the ticket barriers. There are a number of food options and shops. It is a large station so it was very confusing as to which way to best exit. Good transport links to the rest of Milan but not Linate airport.

We went through the station twice. Both times we found it very difficult to navigate, especially dragging luggage and occassionally having to backtrack because the signage was so poor. We really had to ask people often about where we were trying to go. But if you have the time, it's a nice place to get lost in maybe to stay out of the rain.

The station is a couple of things. It was easy to navigate after arriving which was a benefit. It is also the most immense and gorgeously styled buiding. As a total vanity project by Mussolini it has left a stunning looking building.

After arriving in Milan-Malpensa and clearing the maze of shops, hallways, ID checks, and personal and baggage inspections we tried to find the train to Milan Centrale and finally decided to take the bus (10 euro each). 30 minutes later we arrived at the railroad station and the large plaza in front of it. We used the high speed trains to go to Firenze Santo Maria Novella, and to the Venezia Santa Lucia stations. The Milan Centrale station is large, has a ton of shopping area, and connects to the city's Metro (subway) services. It is central to the Last Supper and many other attractions, and there are several hotels (we stayed at the Glam) and restaurants within easy walking distance. But, like the other stations we were at, there is a lack of public seating and this can become a problem for someone that is classified as handicapped or a Senior, or has pets or children with him or her. There is a large plaza in front of the station, and to the Northeastern side there is a boarding / drop off area for dozens of Tour Buses. The buses though may not like the location as to get to the main highways is a chore as each has to go through narrow and congested streets for several minutes.
