Fantastic Hotel at a Great PricePosted: Sun, Aug 23 2009Location:

5The Una Century is one of the nicest hotels I've stayed in, easily the best in Italy and continental Europe. The room was huge, even by American size standards. The couch and lounge area, the working area and the separate bedroom were all unexpectedly large. The mechanical shades on the big wall-to-wall windows overlooking Milan were a nice touch. We made use of the large space by getting some local produce, bread and cheese and just having dinner in our room some nights. The room was very clean and in good condition.
The location was also quite amazing, as the hotel is a five-minute walk from the Central Station in Milan (where you can get trains in and out of Milan, buses to the airport as well as two lines of the Metro).
The breakfast (included in the stay) was also amazing. The selection of meats and breads and cakes and fruits rivaled that of any 4-star restaurant.
At this point, I feel like I should say something negative to give this review the 'feel of legitimacy.' I am seriously struggling to find anything in our experience that I didn't like.
To be fair, we didn't use the fitness facilities or the internet access, so I can't comment on those. We didn't interact with the staff very much. When we did interact with the staff, they were very professional.
I will stay at the Una Century if at all possible on all future trips to Milan.
