Don't be put off by its unprepossessing appearance. The Hotel Arno offers the best value budget accommodation in town. The Ritz it's not and the hotel lift is ridiculous, but it is safe, clean and the owner, Patrick, is super-helpful. There is free wi-fi in your room (something you certainly don't find for free in 5-star hotels in Milan). I... more

It must be noted that this is a hotel for those traveling around Italy and only staying a night or two. It is for those who want a cheap nights accomodation. When you first arrive you are greeted by a dodgy looking lift but don't be put off as it works fine and saves you the four flights of stairs... more

Milan hotels are expensive and we were on a budget so this was a great solution. This is a hostel but we go a twin room with bathroom. Expect furniture that you usually find in the second hand shop (a bit beat up!) but everything was clean and the bathroom immaculate. The staff are friendly and helpful. In summary, t... more

We were pleasantly surprised by this hotel.The owner is very friendly and helpful. Our room was clean with an ensuite.The room was nicely decorated and an ok size. It didn't have an a/c unit but there was a fan in the room which provided much needed relief fom the heat.The hotel is located about 10 mins walk from the train... more

Staying at Hotel Arno was like staying with family - except the staff spoke English! My husband, my daughter, and I were comfortable because we were treated with graciousness and with respect. Our accommodations were clean and well-maintained. We live in Manhattan, so any street noise mentioned by other travelers was not something that we noticed. In fact, we found... more

I stayed for 2 nights in May, and I really liked this budget hotel. The reception people are great, and there's free internet for 30 minutes as well as vending machines of soda, water and coffee. The rooms are normal-sized for Europe, and the showerhead is actually attached to the wall so they have real showers. Towels and linens are... more

My sister and I stayed there for 2 nights. Hotel Eva and Hotel Arno are the same establishment. We made the reservation at one but stayed in the other. They're on the same floor but on different ends of the hall. Very helpful and friendly manager. Clean rooms and bathroom, we paid for private room and bathroom. Hot water. Minimal... more

This hotel is a bit far from the main train station 10/15 minutes walk (you obviously need to know the direction on how to get there as it is not indicated, so get a map) The services provide and the way people go out of their way to make you happy is well worth the visit. On top of that,... more

After coming from bad and terrible experiences from from hostels we stayed in in Rome and Venezia, we find Hotel Arno an excellent place to stay in Milan. We have not checked in when we arrived at about 10am because our room is not ready yet. Instead, the owner/receptionist lets us leave our luggage and come back after an hour... more
