“What struck me most is the beautiful restoration of the building, right on the Navigli canal, yet surprisingly quiet in its inner courtyard rooms. The restaurant seems a real draw, and the location is ideal, close to transport but also walkable to the Duomo; it feels like a particularly good base to explore Milan with friendly staff.”

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Maison Borella is situated in a restored historic building in a lovely area along the canal, within easy walking distance to the city center and close to metro and tram stations for convenient access to attractions; Duomo Square is about a 15-minute walk away. The rooms are spacious and nicely decorated, featuring comfortable beds and good bathrooms, though some guests have noted limited storage space in certain rooms. Guests commonly enjoy the comfortable and elegant bar area, the good wine selection, and the plentiful breakfast, even if the selection of fresh bread could be improved.

A Decent Stay

public transportlively locationreasonably priced wineamplified noisesweet items

The hotel is in the Navigli district, a location I found quite lively. Public transport is easily accessible. It made getting around the city straightforward! The restaurant provided a meal that stood out during my travels, I appreciated that. The wine was reasonably priced, a good surprise.

My room faced the courtyard. Noise seemed amplified there. This made sleep difficult on occasion, specifically on Saturday night. Breakfast, while decent, leaned heavily towards sweet items. I wished for more savoury options.
