Was here twice, arriving from and departing to Malpensa Airport. Despite some recent reviews, my party found signage and directions well marked in Italian and English. There was no problem finding the proper exits for taxis and the Metro leaving and for buying train tickets from the video ticket machines (with English and other foreign language instructions) and our train...

A nice station, not much more to say! As far as stations go, this one is very nice. Very big and quite ornate and grand. I travelled across Italy by train and this is the nicest I came across. (But it is still just a station!) More

Then you get inside and realise it's not very easy to find where you want to be. Way to many escalators, toilets and ATMs are hidden and the moment you leave one of the worst metro stations in Milan you get harassed to buy a toy helicopter or wind up robot that will probably break before you've even bought your...

at last the station is coming out of the main restructuring and it seems to be in a better way. We are still far from the standard of Berlin or other major cities but at least cleanliness is assured togheter with a better lighting that gives a better feeling of safety. There are also some good shops from major clothing/shoes... More

A very good example of fascist architecture. Admire it from Via Pisani More

Still a lot of work to be done...but we're getting there! Gone are the times when it was just a massive railway station in the middle of town and the only thing open all day was the Pharmacy!. It's gone through a massive refurbishing and although it still has to match the standards of New York's Central Station, I really... More

Stazione Centrale di Milano is one of the most beautiful train stations anywhere in the world. The architecture and immensity of this grandiose structure is truly magnificant. It is unfortunate, however, that such a wonderful station has no customer service. The station serves a multitude of nationalities, but has signs, notices, and assistance only in Italian. Kiosks to "assist" travelers--... More

I decided to rate Milano-Centrale since I was surprised to discover that Tripadvisor considers the railway-station an "attraction". During my life I was there (or better said I passed through that building) at least 200 times. I never had the impression to see or to be in an "attraction". Even not at the age of 7 when I was the... More
