Hostels in Lombardy, Italy

The hostel is located 8 minutes walk from Milano Bovisa Politecnico train station. Direct train to and from Malpensa Airport T2 just takes 30 minutes. As far as getting around the city of Milano, there is a Tram-Bus stop (Bausan) just under 5 minutes walk from hostel (after the round about). The 4 bedded sharing room comes with en-suite bathroom with timed hot showers. Bath towel available for rent at 2€. Hostel-wide WiFi access available. The in-house bar-bistro offers good selection of Italian and international fairs. For weary travellers the in-house dinning option is most appreciated. During the day, the common area has a more co-working vibe. As the sun sets, the ambiance transitions to a buzzing vibrant bar-bistro.

All of the staff members are exceptionally friendly and attentive. We especially appreciated that a lunch package was prepared for us at departure, since we couldn’t have breakfast on-site due to time constraints. We felt completely comfortable and very well taken care of throughout our stay. A small suggestion for improvement: Unfortunately, there is no convenient place to store personal items or to hang a jacket.

I still want to recommend this accommodation overall, the facilities and rooms are quite nice. However, I think the male manager in the breakfast area really needs some reflection and proper training. There are two breakfast options here: €8 and €4. I chose the €4 one, but nothing happened for a while. His female colleague, whose English wasn’t very fluent, only took the payment and gave me a coffee. Later, they handed me an empty paper bag for breakfast. When I started to use the bag, the male manager repeatedly told me that the breakfast only included “one coffee and one croissant” he said it at least three times. I also replied that I had received an empty bag and no croissant at all. Instead of explaining politely or resolving the issue, he just kept repeating himself and walked away without doing anything. Overall, the place itself is good, but the staff training is seriously lacking. Even if they’re not sure about something, basic politeness and communication should be expected, and unfortunately, this male manager clearly hasn’t received such training.

There should be lockers for each person. There is a cabinet but not a locker that you can safely lock with a key. There are blankets that you use to cover up your own space so you feel some kind of a private area. It's a good idea. Some free daily snacks and drinks would be really good. Other than that, it has a nice location to stay. Close to metro and train station in Lambrate. Cleaning service was good. They informed when to check out etc. Also whenever I asked for a place or anything else. Good guys for some talking as well if they are not busy. I had good talks with other people who booked as well. It has a nice garden. Kitchen/Cafeteria is good. Many chairs & desks to sit where you can charge your phone or laptop. Microwave and water heater available too. I enjoyed my time there. Price performance is nice if you are a solo traveler and have a flyer deal.

The hostel is very fancy and has a lot of activities, the beds are ok, nothing special or remarkable, they do the job, toilet was clean too. Easy check-in and out. Bit of an issue with light and noise from other guests but that's not on the hostel, even thou I think I may suggest they make guests aware of not video calling in the rooms or watch videos without headphones, as there is other people maybe coming from the other side of the world with jetlag and needs to sleep. There is plenty of space for this in the structure, no need to do it in the room where others are.

The room was more spacious than I expected, with a lounge area where I could microwave food or boil water. The staff were very friendly and professional. The room was a bit chilly, but the location is super convenient with beautiful historical sites nearby.

Excellent hotel. Clean, friendly, delicious food. And very friendly. I'm traveling with my dog. There were no complications. What's more, I extended my reservation by a day. They gave me a discount for my dog's stay. Highly recommended!! Excellent choice. 120% worth the money!

Quite nice, close to Milano centrale, very polite stuff. Shared spaces such as kitchen/ bathrooms/ sitting room are quite cute, i even have seen a washing machine. Bed rooms are extremely easy, just metal beds(pretty noisy actually, every movement produces unpleasant creaking) no extra sockets, next to bed. A bit noisy when the window is open(and it’s opened all the time in a summer time). Can be a good cheap solution for couple of nights.

We stayed at Central Hostel BG as a family of three adults and two children, and overall we had a very pleasant experience. The location is excellent—very central and convenient for walking to nearby attractions, shops, and restaurants, which made travelling with kids much easier. The room was clean, comfortable, and suitable for a family stay. The beds were comfortable, and the hostel was generally quiet at night, allowing everyone to rest well. The common areas were tidy and well maintained. The staff were friendly, helpful, and accommodating, especially when we needed assistance with directions and local information. We felt welcomed throughout our stay. For families looking for affordable accommodation in a central location, Central Hostel BG is a good option. We would recommend it to families who value location, cleanliness, and friendly service.

The hostel felt safe and clean! They've got plenty of activities that I unfortunately didn't get a chance to participate in as I was only in Milan for 2 days. They also gave a complimentary drink ticket to use at the bar. It is about a half an hour walk from the city center, but the area felt quite safe. It's also only a 5 minute walk from the metro station, making it very accessible.
