Hotel Berna Milan

I stayed 6 nights at Hotel Berna, April 20-26. I read recommendations here on the forum and I know I booked months in advance and it was cancellable if needed. My room was very comfortable, very clean, windows could open, had a tea kettle and great water pressure and plenty of hot water. Everyone was very friendly and helpful, automatically speaking English as I really don’t look Italian. I don’t remember exactly but I think my room rate averaged out to about $140 a night.

It was close to the main train station but the area was very safe for walking I felt. As a solo woman traveler I never felt any concerns about the area. Also, lots of restaurants around. I definitely can recommend it.

Agreed- and great happy hour and free mini bar with water and soft drinks. We also love the breakfast!

Awesome. I agree!
This was a great hotel for me as well, a female solo traveler staying overnight. They were kind to help me find the vegan items at the lovely breakfast buffet. Even fresh carrot juice. Wish I knew about the happy hour. Next time!

The staff were attentive and my room was just big enough, on a quiet side toward the back. Easy walk to train station and metro.

Yes, Shawn and Pat. I forgot to mention the mini bar with 2 water bottles, one still, one fizzy and 2 soft drinks gratis. I never stay in hotels classy enough for that! Plus in the lobby there were nice little cookie packages and in their bar they gave you a generous pour of your choice of several white wines for a very good price with some very nice nibbles to go along.

I stayed there in 2006 - glad to hear it's still as delightful as it was back then. That was my first solo overseas trip and the free mini-bar was like a beacon in the dark after a very long travel day!

We have stayed at Hotel Berna twice and highly recommend it. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet is one of the best we have ever had. Loved our room both times and all the little extras that have been mentioned. Walking distance to the train station was very convenient.
