"What a great team Hotel Una Scandinavia has!" Posted: Mon, Nov 23 2009
Value: 3
Would I recommend this hotel to a friend? ABSOLUTELY!! What a great team Hotel Una Scandinavia has! The front office guys are so helpful ! I recomend this hotel to everyone.
Very comfortable hotel with several amenities. Clean rooms - smaller in size, but price and quality far make up for hotel. Supermarket and wonderful bar (Bar del'Angolo) steps away. A simple 15 minute tram ride to duomo easily available. Will stay again!
We have just had a weekend break April 2008 @ the Una Scandinavia, this hotel is clean & comfortable although a little dated, breakfast service & food was very good.
The Hotel is about 45min walk to the Domo or you can catch a tram or bus (Taxi's are very expensive and i really wouldnt advise you to hire a car), if you want to be in the midst of the shopping then this hotel may not be for you.
Its easy to get a train to Como Lake which is a nice contrast to the hustle & bustle of the city traffic.
Overall we had a very pleasent stay but probably would choose a hotel closer to the centre if we visited Milan again.
Surpringsly pleased Posted: Sat, Mar 22 2008 Having read other reviews I was bit worried about staying in this hotel, I have to say thankfully my doubts were proved wrong. Hotel very nice, nicely decorated, (reception area/bar area quite small for size of hotel but for length of time used it was not a problem). Hotel bedroom nice and clean, huge bed, lots of storage, very clean, bathroom quite small though but plenty of hot water, great powerful shower.
Hotel staff excellent probably nicest I have came across on my travels, vey helpful, polite and no query to much to them, speak very good english better than my pigeon italian!!
Hotel a bit out of centre,(3km) not too far to walk, though tram stop minutes walk from hotel which takes you straight into centre. Some really nice restaurants, shops in area.
Some tips for Milan - not really tourist resort, would suggest brush up on italian phrases, know some italian dishes/meals as menus all in italian (no translation into english, meant my relatively fussy husband lived on pizza each night!!!) Milan shops close on Sundays, only few expnsive ones stay open that are right in centre, limited choice of activities also, would recommend avoiding sundays if on short stay breaks.
