Our stay was very pleasant. The room was very nice and would stay here again! Parking is difficult as you have to find a garage nearby which was a challenge.
The room was small but quaint. It building is right across the Castello Sforzesco, which makes it very walkable to historical sites and museums. It's also close to one of MIlan's train stations, making it easy for travellers.
The hotel's location was directly across from the Castle, which was perfect for us since we wanted to spend time there. The room was clean, and the staff was accommodating with restaurant suggestions and other items.
The hotel itself was very difficult to find. We were thankful that we came during the staffed hours so that we could be properly let in otherwise we would’ve had difficulty finding the property and our room. Otherwise the staff was great and very helpful. We were able to drop off bags before our room was ready and the room was very cute.
Everything perfect. Very quiet. Nice room. Very central. The lady at the reception (Saba) very friendly and super erfficient and helpful. It was my second time and I will definitely be back.
(Only watch out - there is no elevator and the reception and rooms are on 1st floor)
I had an excellent experience with Couper Castello and would certainly come back.
The room and facilities are exquisitely decorated, Debora is a fantastic host, the central location is great and you are literally across the street from Castello Sforzesco!
I will mention a few things that were not negatives to me, but people should be aware prior to booking:
- This is not a conventional hotel, so you should not expect 24/7 staff on site, amenities, etc. They do housekeeping daily and the host is on site during business hours.
- The facility is located inside a historical building, so the elevator is dated, if that matters to you.
- The room I stayed at had a window, but no view. Not sure about others.
Very memorable experience and looking forward to being back some day.
Location convenient. Website is misleading. Very little amenities and staff is only on premises for limited time. Towels were not nice. Could not get on property past 5pm without having to call hotel to buzz you in. Pictures look better than in real life.
Overall, this was just fine for our one night stay in Milan. It is not easy to find from the street, being part of another building with little signage. Reception was friendly but not around often. When you leave in the evening you will need to call to be let back in the building. Cute room, but lacks some amenities, like an iron.
Loved the hotel itself! But we were instructed to call if the downstairs gate was ever closed after reception left at 4pm. So it felt a little weird to leave and not be sure we would be able to reach someone to be let back in. Sure enough ourselves and another group of guest returned after dinner to a closed door and had trouble getting back in. Would have been a hassle had we stay led longer than a night!
An unusual juxtaposition between Airbnb and a hote
The room, toilet and cleanliness was on par with that of a good to excellent hotel. The room was also very quiet with no road or pedestrian noises. The location was fantastic being near to the trains, metro, trams and 10-15 min walk to the Duomo. The surrounding area of the Sforzesci castle gave it a very pleasant vibe.
The hotel has no signage making it difficult to find. I guess this is because it's mainly office/apartment blocks with 2 floors used by the hotel. The reception was not regularly staffed although there were numbers available to call if required. If you arrive out of hours, then getting into the hotel may be a challenge.
Everything was great except that a stranger walked into our room. He quickly walked out once he saw it was occupied, however, it is concerning that he had access in the first place. There was no one at the first desk as it was after hours so I had to call a number, and about 1 hr later the staff said it was an oversight and his access was revoked. While they were able to remediate the situation, it was a safety concern.
