The Sartorialist

Hey guys– I always like to tell you when I find a great hotel, like the Hôtel Thoumieux in Paris. Unfortunately, I’ve been traveling to Milan for six years and still haven’t found a good, reasonably priced hotel to call my home away from home.

I’ve stayed at the Principe- too expensive, too corporate, and when they re-designed the bar they lost me. The Grand is certainly grand and in a beautiful location, but the insanely slow internet makes it difficult as a top choice. Most recently I stayed at the new La Scala, which was too expensive for an upper-mid level corporate hotel with no discernible charm. The AC Milano is too far out of the center, and its neighbor, the Una Hotel Tocq, located in the heart of Milan’s noisiest nightclub district, is loud every night of the week. The Nhow, out in the Tortona art district, is even farther away, in the opposite direction of the AC Milano.

I just stayed at the Cusani during Men’s this month; great location and typical corporate atmosphere, but the food simply was not up to par by any Italian standards.

So, I’m begging you…please help me find a hotel in Milan!

My dream would be old school Italian design, reliable internet, reasonably good food (especially breakfast), and located somewhere in the center of Milan.

I’m counting on you guys, I can’t wait to read the responses tomorrow and book my room right away!
