My flight was delayed causing me to miss my connection to Milan. Urban Hive Milano changed the date of arrival with ease. I was beyond stressed and it was the first time something was going right all day/night. Once there the staff was consistently and genuinely kind and relaxed. Very professional, helpful and efficient. The room was perfect. The bed was really comfortable. Breakfast in the morning was fresh and delicious. Good location in Brera neighborhood. 15-20 min walk to Duomo. Perk: the filtered water fountain on my floor. Refilled my water bottle as I waited for the elevator. Thank you Urbam Hive Milano.

Amazing location, super friendly staff. The reception staff were incredible I asked for many things during my stay and they did not hesitate to help immediately from car service to restaurant booking to directions and train timings. I would highly recommend this hotel for location and staff service. Rooms were ok I would say average for Milan and breakfast was also average for Milan.

Although I would come back again I wish these things would change. The breakfast was basic, most of hotels in Milano has poor breakfast options as well. Dry cleaning service take 24 hrs or more to clean the clothes. I wish there were an express service. The house keeping needs training and experience. one day they forget a cleaning product in my room, one day they left a glass uncleaned and one day they left the room door open.

We have been traveling for a long time in Turkey and other countries,but this is the first time I have been in such a great and friendly environment.I was with my daughter and we had doubts if we could have felt safe at the hotel,but it was a perfect choice.When you step in the hotel the reception welcomes you and when you see Maged you understand that you are in the right place,he is so nice and friendly,he helped us on any topic we needed.Thanks Maged for your friendly support and your jokes.Rosa;she is the best front desk manager you can ever meet.You can see her at any time,smiling and making your day beautiful.She doesn't do it because it is her job,she really feels it and makes you feel comfortable and "happy" during your stay.Thank you Rosa for everything...we will be missing you.Then Anna at the restaurant.Please meet her when you have your gorgeous breakfast.She is the most positive person we have met in Italy.She does her best and starts your day with a big and happy smile on your face.She often comes and asks if you need anything else or if you liked the food or not.We are so happy to meet you Anna and I am sure you are welcoming people not just because this is your job,also you love your job and people.Thank you for every morning we started our day with you.And Riccardo...thanks for your jokes and your delicious coctails.Please talk to Riccardo what kind of tastes you like and let him do your coctail.I have written about the people and also the breakfast was as nearly the same as a five star hotel.They even had glutenfree products,many kinds of breakfast teas and herbal teas which is great for Turkish people.The rooms were as clean as your house so I am sure you will be so satisfied of staying here.As a result thanks for the big big manager that she had such a happy and beautiful staff because of her kind and friendly managing attitude.We met her,too then I understood why you feel you are in such a great environment.See you all next time

This hotel was recently renovated and re-opened in January 2023. Being so new, everything was clean and in excellent order. The staff was very friendly and helpful (spoke excellent English). Breakfast had a very nice selection of foods and delicious fresh fruit cups. It is a half block from the metro station (Milan Metro is very reasonable and very easy to navigate, just remember to tap in and out using the same credit card - each rider uses their own and is charge daily depending on your usage). The hotel is also a short walk from many good restaurants and the Sforza Castle.

Absolutely loved our stay at Urban Hive. We were welcomed with warm smiles and genuinely friendly service — the staff is incredibly helpful and full of positive energy. The breakfast was amazing – fresh, varied, and full of delicious options to start your day right. Plus, there’s a stylish little bar that’s perfect for an aperitivo or a nightcap after exploring the city. The rooms are smartly designed and thoughtfully equipped, striking just the right balance between comfort and functionality. The bathroom was sleek, modern, and spotlessly clean. For the quality, comfort, and location, the value for money is outstanding.

This is a modern and comfy hotel with a lot of nice features. The room was fresh with the expected amneties. One nice feature is an open changing room with shower if you travel out late and would like to spend the last day in the city and arrive fresh to the airport. The staff in the reception was superfriendly and helpful. The location of the hotel was very good with walking distance to many of the "mandatory" Milan sights. Breakfast is optional so you can choose if you go for the buffé version or a bar version (go for the buffé in that case) or if you like to venture outside to any of the nearby cafés. The rooms are a little pricy but you have to take in considiration that Milan is a metropol and you can probably stay cheaper and more expensive you you're aiming for that.

The staff in the bar was a little grumpy but did ok drinks. It was quite obvious due to the fact that the guys in the reception was superfriendly... but perhaps they had a bad day.

Beautiful design and very friendly and helpful staff. Rooms were well laid out and had everything you need. Absolutely loved the Corso Garibaldi location as well - away from the crowds and a very cool neighbourhood to be based out of but still walkable to Duomo if you need to check that off your list. For anyone driving, the attached garage in the building basement makes things so easier. Rare for a ZTL property! We were only there for our last night of a 2 week trip but wished we had gone with Urban Hive for our first Milan leg as well. Will definitely choose Urban Hive for our future visits here!

Exceptional location, great staff, especially front desk and breakfast. Rooms are cute and quiet, slept like an ox. Location is pretty perfect, decor is fun, breakfast surprisingly good for an Italian hotel; including wonderful ladies and phenomenal coffee from a real espresso machine. The ONLY comment I have is that the rooms and collective spaces feel a bit crammed, even the big rooms. Other than that 09/10.

Every good thing I would say is already in reviews, that is why I chose this hotel. Location is wonderful, next to metro and close to Porta Garibaldi train station from which you can catch a train to Malpensa airport or Genoa like we did. Staff very friendly, bed super comfortable, quality breakfast except maybe coffee not super. They fitted almost every amenity in a relatively small space, except perhaps iron. No worries they have no drawers, instead a large stand to lay your suitcase open so it serves you as a drawer. Mosquito repellent provided at reception if asked. Very convenient hotel, again, location is so good in so many ways, and the overall ambiance is positive and welcoming. Would gladly return to Milan and this particular hotel. Thank you for all your efforts, thoughtful design and nice staff, and of course very cute birthday surprise!

The hotel exceeded my expectations. It's cool and trendy without being overdone. The hotel staff was absolutely lovely on all occasions and very helpful with any inquiries we had. We had two rooms, one for a couple and one twin. Both were excellent. The twin especially since we got an unexpected outside patio! My pet peeve is usually bad air conditioning in otherwise nice locations, but it was superb in our room! It never got uncomfortably stuffy or too hot/too cold. The beds are firm (the nice kind of firm)! Our rooms were on the 1st floor above the restaurant and lobby but the room was still nice and quiet! We could hear a tiny bit of music, but very low and barely audible. The rooms were always spotless and clean. A nice touch was the water station on every floor that has filtered water where you can refill your water bottles. They do not have any plastic bottles in the rooms. The breakfast was delicious. The staff asks you what coffee you'd like and prepare it for you (included in breakfast). The scrambled eggs were especially good, each in their own cast-iron pot so they stayed yummy! Try it with the cooked tomatoes and mushrooms!

Overall, the hotel is wonderful. If you'd like to be closer to the Duomo cathedral area then this is a bit of a walk. It is quite far for walking if you have trouble with such things. However, there are trams, trains and taxi's readily available.
