We will be in Milan for two nights in mid-September 2025 (hopefully before Fashion Week begins), then taking the train to Venice. We would like to find a hotel within a short walking distance to the train station. The Rick Steves Italy book recommends Hotel Garda, Hotel Berna, or Hotel Aosta, with Hotel Aosta being closest to the station.
Have you stayed at one of these hotels? If so, do you recommend it? How far was the walk from the hotel to the station? Or have you stayed at a different Milan hotel that is in close proximity to the train station that you would recommend?
I'd appreciate any advice you can provide. Thanks.
