    breakfast variety
    fresh options
    room privacy

    The breakfast buffet stands out with an excellent variety including fresh omelettes, crepes, and a solid selection of breads and cheeses.

    Room privacy is a bit of a concern, as the restroom lacks a door. this could be awkward for guests sharing accommodations. Additionally, Wi-Fi coverage is spotty, making it challenging to stay connected, which is disappointing for a hotel of this caliber.

    The hotel has an excellent location, allowing for easy walks to stunning nearby attractions. the staff stands out for their friendliness and dedication.

    great location
    delicious breakfast
    helpful staff
    noisy elevator
    inconsistent wifi

    The Genius Hotel is a mixed bag. The location couldn't be better—just a short walk to major attractions like the Duomo and close to Cadorna station for the train to Malpensa Airport. The breakfast impressed with a great variety, including fresh omelettes and a selection of pastries that were tasty. The room was a decent size for European standards and the staff were generally helpful when I needed assistance. However, my stay came with a few bumps. Upon arrival, I was given a room next to a loud elevator. Thankfully, I managed to switch rooms after some back and forth. The air conditioning system was problematic too. I had to rely on the front desk to turn it on. One night, the hot water wasn't functioning properly, and I was left with a lukewarm shower. WiFi was also hit or miss throughout my stay, making it hard to stay connected. All these issues dampened an otherwise pleasant stay, especially since this hotel has so much potential.

    convenient location
    friendly staff
    clean hotel
    small room

    Had a great time with friends! The location was super convenient, just a short walk to major spots. We loved visiting QC Termemilano and Acquatica Park during our stay. The staff was friendly, and the hotel was clean and well-maintained. Plus, there were plenty of eateries nearby, making dining easy and enjoyable.

    However, the room was quite small, which made it a bit cramped for our group, and we wished for more breakfast options.

    excellent shower
    impressive breakfast
    limited room space

    great experience but slightly limited space

    The bath and shower experience was outstanding! The rainfall shower had excellent water flow. Additionally, the breakfast was impressive with fresh, cooked-to-order omelettes and quick access to coffee.

    The room felt a bit cramped for two adults, which may not suit those needing spacious accommodations.

    The location of the hotel is excellent, allowing easy access to major attractions while being on a quiet street. The staff was incredibly friendly, and I appreciated the attention to detail in the room's amenities. However, the WiFi connection was unreliable during my stay.

    made-to-order omelettes

    It was just a well-suited match for a couple of nights in Milan with good value considering price it charged. The breakfast had fresh, made-to-order omelettes that were surprisingly good. Check out the nearby restaurants for local dining options.

    The hotel's location was perfect, just a short walk to Cadorna station and the stunning Duomo. Breakfast was excellent, with fresh omelettes and a variety of pastries that our kids loved.

    My children wished for a more spacious room.

    fantastic location
    friendly staff
    loud elevator
    malfunctioning air conditioning
    wifi connection issues

    The hotel's location is fantastic, nestled in a quiet street just minutes away from major attractions. The staff were notably friendly and willing to help throughout my stay, particularly during breakfast, which featured delicious homemade jams. Unfortunately, the room I initially received was adjacent to a loud elevator, which forced a room change, and the air conditioning malfunctioned during my stay, making it quite uncomfortable. Additionally, one night there was no comforter provided, and I had difficulty with the WiFi connection.
