“Wonderful little hotel in a typical Milano backyard. Very welcoming and caring staff, rich Italian breakfast, very nice rooms. The hotel is located 5 min from M1 and 10 min from M2 which makes it perfectly located for any city activities. I totally recommend.”
“I enjoyed my stay and would stay here again. The staff was friendly, thoughtful and professional. My room was a nice size with a lovely courtyard view. Breakfast was plentiful with a variety of options. The location was away from the central part of the city so it was quiet, but still had easy access to sites by walking, metro or tram.”
“Charming old-world style boutique hotel right in the heart of town within close proximity to center. Rooms are quiet and quaint. Ours had a courtyard balcony! The best feature however is a tie between the breakfast (recommended) and the staff. Not just cordial but friendly and super helpful! The breakfast had home cooked everything, not formulaic like some hotels. A tasty selection of sweet & savory delights and the coffee was excellent! The staff were all so helpful and pleasant. Would definitely stay there again!”
“What a find in busy Milan! You enter into a small and charming courtyard and the hotel is a lovely oasis from the hustle and bustle. The staff are so welcoming, helpful and speak English quite well. The room is comfortable and has everything you need, they even accommodated our request for a room on the courtyard. The breakfast was wonderful, so much to choose from with a friendly staff member making delightful cappucinos to order. There's a bar in the evenings there is a tram stop less than a block from the hotel. Highly recommend!”
“The hotel is in an amazing location. The staff was beyond helpful and even held our 3 month old while we loaded our plates high with their amazing breakfast. The room was spacious and very comfortable. We had our own courtyard. The recommendations for food and sights were spot on and really let us get a feel for the city.”
“The Antica Locanda Leonardo is perfect in every respect. Our first stay in Milan. It was easy to get to whether from airport or train. From its location, all sites were easy to access via foot or tram. The staff was helpful and prompt with questions and advice both prior to and during our stay. The room was very quiet, clean and comfortable. We had a small patio which was an oasis from the city. The breakfast food and service was outstanding. The Antica Locanda Leonardo is now our hotel for stays in Milan.”
