Visiting family at least 3 times a year in Verona my daughter and I thought we would see what Milan was like. The Hotel Genius was in a perfect location was clean but I think slightly over priced WiFi was an extra cost and was not that good this should of been included in the price. Don't expect a view...

We stayed for 7 nights total at this perfectly located hotel. In terms of location and convenience to everything in Milan, we felt this hotel could not be better. We found our room to be very clean and it had everything we needed. The staff was kind and helpful to us. In fact, we had to stay over an extra... More

The hotel Genius was chosen for a recent trip more because of availability than for what it offered. That said it does have a number of things to recommend it. As has been stated by others the hotel is very close to the Cairoli metro [less than a 2 minute stroll] and as such you are on the network for... More

I am impressed. I read it three times and passed it over to... More

The location is very good, close to a Metro station in the heart of Milan. I had a Single room for 125 E incl a simple breakfast which I found overpriced for the tiny room. To make the room larger the walls were made very thin so I could hear all the telephone conversations of my neighbour and other sounds... More

We chose the Genius Hotel as we were looking for a budget hotel with a good, central location and we were not disappointed. The rooms are on the small side, but perfectly fine and tastefully decorated in a modern style. The breakfast was good, with a wide range of choices. A decent continental breakfast for the price of the hotel.... More

The manager Marco went over and above, very friendly and helpful. The hotel was in a great location, breakfast was healthy and the rooms were comfortable. The staff would arrange taxis, hotel reservations and ensure we were connected to the intenet.
