Recently stayed at the Carlyle Brera for just one night. Loved the Brera neighbourhood - the hotel is surrounded by neat restaurants, cafes, and loads of shops. There is also a metro station right outside the hotel, but we found the 15 minute walk to the Duomo easier as you do have to transfer if you take the metro. It's... more

I stayed in this hotel for four nights, on a girls weekend in Milan. We were very happy about this hotel. The room was large enough to accomodate three women with lot's of luggage! The wooden floor was an added bonus. The bathroom had a jazuzzi and a power shower. I seemed recently renovated and it was very clean. The... more

My stay at the Carlyle was great - we arrived to be greeted with a bunch of flowers each by the staff on reception who were friendly and very polite with excellent english. The triple room was big and more than enough to accomodate 3 people. However the decor was a little dated and seemed to throw back to the... more

Just got back from spending Valentine's weekend @ Carlyle. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel esp after reading other reviews. Here's my breakdown: AREA: Brera is very nice. Bars, restaurants, shopping, Scala, Duomo all within walking distance from hotel. There's a good (& cheap!) Italian restaurant less than a minute from Carlyle. Can't remember what... more

This hotel was excellent... well beyond our expectations. The location is perfect if you're in Milan and wanting to enjoy any kind of night life... you've got Corso Como 1km to the north of you, Il Duomo 1km to the south, and MOSCOVA subway station right next door. Not to mention, the neighbourhood was excellent and always very safe. As... more

Not recommended. The worst thing: COLD water not working in the room! Truth is that they fixed it, but believe me it's not pleasant when u're naked in front of a literally boiling shower after a hard day at the office. Most of all it's not what u would expect in a hotel of this category and PRICE. Second: what... more

Normally agree with most tripadvisor notes but this is a good hotel. Location is spot on- near restuarants and nearer enough to walk to the centre. Beds are big and easy to sleep in. The bathroom is bigger than average and had an amazing power shower. The Staff seemed helpful when we stayed there. Breakfast wasnt brilliant but definately had... more

Having read the reviews about unfriendly and unhelpful reception I had steeled myself for the worst. Surprisingly, service was fine. I put the experiences of other travellers to the fact that the reception is manned by usually 1 or 2 middle aged Milanese men. The demographics of such individuals = dignified, collected, not terribly ebullient or chatty. When I asked... more

They charged me $544 for one night. After seeing the shock on the front desk person's face over the cost, I knew something was wrong. Then I overheard another person at the desk being charged 110 Euro for the same night! Thinking there must be an error, I sent an email to the hotel a couple days later. Just today... more
