Starhotels Splendido it's by far the first hotel to avoid when you're in Milan.

The first memory I'll have of this hotel is that I had my digital camera stolen, obviously by some of the hotel staff, since I didn't have any guests and the room was always locked. I filled a complaint with the local police but with no hope to get something recovered.

I've contacted my company to try to do the check-out earlier than predicted as I don't feel safe here anymore. I'm not comfortable with the idea that they spent almost 20 000 euro for me and my colleague accommodation (almost 3 months here, it really was a hell) and I've gotten robbed.

Other weak points: The rooms are very small (I think the ad photos from their site were taken at another hotel) and noisy (the subway is just under the hotel + the rooms are not well isolated). Some of the front desk personnel is not helpful at all, who couldn't solve any of my problems during his shift, but they got solved in a minute the next shift).

Another thing: The staff's behavior is mostly determined by the country you come from (so if you're a western man/lady you're lucky).

A few good points: It’s in a good location and they have a very good breakfast.

The standards are far from a four star hotel. I would hardly give 3 stars to this hotel, so run when you see it!
