Principe di Savoia

Our two-week vacation in Europe reached its pinnacle at this excellent hotel. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the traditional European charm that permeates the gorgeous rooms and joyful holiday decorations. The ambiance truly set the stage for a memorable experience. To make my wife's birthday even more special, the hotel generously surprised us with a bottle of champagne and a delicious birthday cake, showcasing their commitment to exceptional service. This thoughtful gesture added a personal touch to our celebration. We also had the pleasure of dining at the hotel's restaurant, where breakfast was nothing short of excellent, boasting a wide array of choices to satisfy any palate. Our dinner, held in honor of my wife's birthday, was a delightful culinary experience that we will cherish. Overall, our stay at this hotel was a 5-star experience, characterized by outstanding service and an enchanting atmosphere. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a remarkable getaway!

Perhaps this is the best value for money in Milan. Amazing hotel, great SPA, restaurant with delicious food and the service in the hotel is always at a high level. The only thing is that because we arrived in our own car, a month later we received a city fine for driving into the city zone at the wrong time. I think this is a minus of the hotel if you have your own car, because you need to adapt to the city rules, although you live in the hotel. 🥺

Excellent hotel in every way. Deluxe room was very spacious. Leisure centre excellent. Staff very friendly. Only criticism if I had to have one is food and drinks very expensive, but perhaps to be expected for a 5 star in Milan.

I purchased a gift card from the hotel website for some dear friends to kick off their three-month stay in Italy, which they used for pizza, teas, and coffees. It sounds like they had an absolutely fabulous time. They were wowed by the Christmas decor and ambiance and sent me this update: "We had a marvelous tea time at the Principe - OMG beautiful - I will send you some photos - the more upscale and lovely place. Very best in show. thank you thank you, thank you." I pass on my thank you to Principle di Savoia for providing such a lovely experience!

Best hotel in Milan. I can’t recommend it enough. The architecture, interior, rooms, lobby, and lounge are amazing and you will want to stay the whole time in there. Our room was so warm and cosy. The staff are super welcoming , friendly and highly trained. Everything about this hotel is top notch. I highly recommend it whatever is the purpose of your trip.

An enchanting and charming stay over the Christmas holiday. The rooms were comfortable and service at the restaurants were at its best. Only issue is the distance from the Duomo and shopping areas, although they do help with frequent complimentary shuttles. I will surely be back here as my main stay in Milan.

Was for first time in this big historical hotel in Milan which has been totally refurbished and restored recently. It’s a very good five stars hotel with good service. The room was confortable and spacious, the only negative side was not finding a kettle with herbal tea bags or a nespresso machine. For me it’s fundamental in a room. The breakfast was very good with so much variety and excellent service. Nice view from the terrace with a nice fitness and pool area. Reccomended if you are in Milan.

Being a Dorchester brand we expected excellent service. However the privacy notice isn’t respected, and after booking an expensive body treatment & massage on what I thought was the correct date, due to international time difference it landed on the day before I was available. I still thought it was booked for the next day, and had prepared for that. However there was no email or note the day before to remind me of the service, therefore allowing me to realize and adjust my schedule. Just an email *on the day* stating “you didn’t show up for the treatment so you’ll be charged full price” Full price, really. When you could’ve even called to remind me when I didn’t arrive 10 minutes in. I’d have gone to the spa in 4 minutes, it’s a 3+ hour treatment. There was time. Disgraceful. Wow. So in that case, you didn’t provide the full service of a “five star” establishment, therefore I’ll leave a review about it, tell everyone I speak to about it, and never return to this hotel, even though we will now be visiting monthly this year for projects we’re working on. Great job at guest retention guys 👍🏼 Reeeally professional five star service. Pfft. I can see how little you care about your guests. 🙄 In addition, the restaurant was mediocre, in decor and cuisine. We’d planned to dine there every night but after the first night’s bland dishes, we demurred. It’s edible for sure, but with very little imagination or flavor. The hotel decor is old fashioned but tasteful, a bit worn, but the service is TERRIBLE. Except for the housekeeping who were lovely, the very helpful doormen, and the restaurant manager (?) who was very, very kind, despite working in very basic surroundings. But front desk are dismissive, disorganized, unprofessional and clearly uninterested. Especially Monica. Definitely stay elsewhere, and definitely don’t trust the front desk or spa to manage or remind you of your bookings. They actively want you to not arrive, so they can just steal your payment & leave you without a treatment you may sorely need as a busy traveling professional. I hope you enjoyed stealing that payment, because you won’t get another cent from us.

Excellence and luxury throughout. This hotel hits all the marks. Superb staff. Unmatched in-house restaurant and rooms that are the epitome of perfection. With a long and storied history this hotel will cater to your every whim. The rooms are perfect with every detail thought through. Fresh fruit in room upon arrival, turn down service and daily water delivery. Breakfast on site ensures the day starts perfectly. 24 hour concierge handled all my needs. With shuttle runs to the major areas this is a perfect place to stay and will be the ONLY place I stay in Milan.

The Principe di Savoia is a beautiful hotel. The lobby has a classic European feel with the marble floor, gold colors, and intricate details. On the other hand, the rooms take on a more modern flair with the wooden floor, white marble bathroom, and walk-in shower. Amenities include a spa, pool, and fitness center. Dining options include the Acanto Restaurant, Il Salotto in the lobby, the Principe Bar, and room service. The location is near the Milan Central railway station, and there is a complimentary car service to and from the historical city center. While the facilities are on point, the service could use some work. There were some staff members who were genuinely friendly and exceptional, but there were also some who were not very pleasant. The most memorable was the hostess at the restaurant who seemed very stressed out and was not smiling or welcoming at all. Otherwise, there were some other staff members who did not seem really happy or enthusiastic about their jobs. Overall, I had a good stay despite the lackluster service. A beautiful place uplifts the mood. A comfortable bed makes for restful sleep. A convenient location allows for plenty of sightseeing and adventure. I spent most of my time outside of the hotel and had a great time in Milan.

This is one of these European hotels that manages to create a reputation and a feeling of grandness. And it really builds on everyone working here and in its guests or customers. It has an aristocratic feeling, though I believe it was built in the 1980s. Service could not be better. Everyone is there to nicely please customers. Life seems quite easy, while you are here. Rooms are excellent, and they are nicely catered and taken care of. Breakfast is really nice, not ultra lavish, but quite good. Entrance is really well managed, and get you taxis in a few minutes. Decoration has its own style. Not the Milan's Villa Necchi Campiglio's refinement. But rather a mixture of non-antique Murano lamps, marble and steel and glass historicism. This could be better.

We have traveled to 10+ countries in the past 10 years and this is my favorite hotel experience so far. The decor is so well balanced. The suite has plenty of room for our morning routine. One negative- there is no pleasant viewing from any window so you must enjoy how nice the inside has been decorated. It's very lovely. Staffing were all helpful as could be. They made lunch/dinner suggestions, and reservations at our request, for 3 locations and all 3 were fantastic. The daily room cleaning staff were great, fast and practically invisible. Doormen fast with taxi service. Breakfast area was clean and very fast service. Room service food was fast, hot and large portions. 3 night stay was perfect.

EDIT: The manager of the hotel was kind enough to send along a complimentary bottle of champagne along with an apology note for our experience thus far. Stick to a Four Seasons or a Langham if you can, because this was terrible. We checked in for a 10 night stay in their base room (Classic Room) during our first trip to Milan. Two nights in and we are extremely displeased. The first night we were placed in hands-down the shabbiest, rattiest room we have ever seen in a hotel - check out the pics and video of filthy headboard, scuffs and scratches - with a ROCK HARD bed. We notified the staff and were moved to almost the exact same room with the exact same issue. Filthy headboard, rock hard bed. We had someone from the hotel staff come and look, as we thought maybe there was a miscommunication. We were then moved to another room with slightly different decor which was cleaned properly OR SO WE THOUGHT. The next day I happened to make the mistake of looking at the shower. See the photos. The following night we got an alert from AMEX that we had a $2,500 charge on our card from the hotel, when we had prepaid the entire stay already. We called down and they said it was a mistake - it should have been a $500 hold for the stay for incidentals. We called about this and the filthy shower and were moved again to a Junior Suite. Don't think we will be back, but make your own decisions.

This hotel is amazing! Location in Milan is great with a free car transport that takes you into town to the sights. Everyone that works here is fabulous. Massimo the concierge spent much time with me helping me get train tickets to my other destinations. A relaxing dinner in the bar, I was well cared for by ALL waitstaff. Rooms are clean, cozy, and elegant. I even had them pick me up from the airport. It was easy and convenient.

Pros: 1. Exceptionally good masseuse - ask for Isabella. 2. Room service charge is only 5 EUR per person instead of some ridiculous % of the total bill. 3. The concierge recommended a day trip to Bellagio, in addition to Lake Como. Great advice! 4. Friendly and helpful doormen. Cons: 1. When I asked for "unique, local boutiques" in lieu of Prada and Fendi, the concierge sent me to this street...I forgot the name but upon hopping out of the cab, all I saw were Calvin Klein and the Foot Locker (seriously?!). Disappointed, I asked a store clerk for better recommendations. She sent me to Brera (name of the neighborhood), and I couldn't be happier. That was a definite failure on the concierge's part, IMO. 2. Lackluster breakfast. We're in ITALY. Why bother with an American continental breakfast buffet? It's like stepping in to Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory and being offered nothing but M&M's. Lame!

It's a little old fashioned but so well maintained and the staff is lovely. It is also nicely located to see some great new architecture as you leave to the left of the hotel and head toward the bridge through new developments and then spill out to Corso Como! My kids were in love with the Cute Hamburgers for kids in the Room Service they kept asking for it again and again, and when we had a terrible dinner at EAT ALY, I wish they had had the room service again too! Anyways, breakfast is not too varied, but enough to get you started and skip lunch! I would stay here again because it is so well placed, you feel at home here and I felt like I was sleeping in a luxurious cavern as I recovered from Jet Lag!

Loved it! Will definitely book again in the near future. Beautiful suites, very clean. Staff was very nice and helpful. Very satisfied with my stay!

Centrally located at Piazza Republic. Hotel offers old world charm with modern day service including limousine shuttle to the shopping area Montenapelone and the Galleria Vittoriio Emmanuel.

Switched over to here for three nights after a night at the Armani Hotel. This place was much more reasonably priced and had a lively atmosphere. The upgrade to a corner room was fantastic. Good view and plenty of room. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean, and the bed nice and firm. Highly recommended. Would have given five stars for the price/value except for the very expensive wireless internet in the room. Come on. It's 2012. This needs to be free.

This is a first class hotel with a first class staff. The amenities here are super. Limo rides to town are a great extra. Rooms are beautiful. The main restaurant is fabulous. We had a terrific dinning experience. Everyone is goes above and beyond to make you feel at home and the food was delicious. We cancelled reservations in town to eat here a second night. Breakfast buffet is second to none. We will definitely stay here again without hesitation.

Friendly Staff Reasonably priced Great ambiance Indoor Pool was a plus Spacious Room

Following a major overhaul, The Hotel Principe di Savoia in Milan now features a new lobby, bar and suites. Part of the Dorchester Collection, the hotel can lay plausible claim to being one of the best in the world. The New York based designer Thierry Despont has transformed what was a somewhat stuffy ambience into a light and welcoming environment. The lobby is now the place to see and by seen for Milanese fashionistas and wannabes. If you can drag your eyes from the beautiful creatures sipping lattes and gazing meaningfully into their BlackBerries, you can take in the no-less gorgeous subjects of classical paintings by artists such as Luca Giordano which adorn the walls. At the risk of putting a crick into your graceful neck, don't fail to appreciate the custom-made Murano glass chandelier created by Barovier and Toso. The Principe Bar still has some of the original marble and wood panelling but now the centrepiece of the room is to a custom-made banquette wrapped around a grand piano. It is currently offering Sex and the City themed cocktails at EUR24 a pop make sure Big is picking up the tab. Upstairs, nine new Principe suites have been introduced and the Imperial Suite has received a total transformation. The suites feature hand-painted frescoes, Italian furniture and deep purple armchairs and floor-lamps. The large sitting rooms, part of each suite, are furnished with comfy sofas. The bathrooms are very spacious (after all, it was in one of these that James Corden and David Beckham shared a bath in aid of Sport Relief). Back downstairs the Acanto restaurant classic Italian cuisine chiefly influenced by the Lombardy region. I had a starter of Belugia caviar from Iran followed by a seafood main course of lobster, squid and prawns historic as Michael Winner might remark.

Phenomenal hotel, impeccable service! I travel a lot, but this was one of the best hotels I stayed at in a while. Fantastic restaurant, with attention to every details. Terrific hotel staff - all very attentive and helpful. Great rooms and amenities at affordable rates

A little expensive but wonderful decoration and delicious cocktails at the hotel bar. Warm welcome ans excellent service :)

Possibly the best hotel I've ever stayed in. The location is a little inconvenient (noisy square with lots of traffic), there are no decent views, but the building is tremendously grand, the rooms gorgeous and the bathrooms opulent and luxurious. Breakfast is world-class, with incredible pastries and types of bread and exquisite detail in the table service. The Savoia is, simply, an unforgettable experience for an ordinary mortal.

Beautiful hotel with top notch service.

This is a truly superb hotel with world-class facilities - but not perfect. I stayed late Spring last year for a conference. We found those people who had told the taxi driver they were staying at the hotel first paid considerably more for their fare - a Milanese way of redistributing wealth perhaps? Check in is slow and check-out a little curious with bills being settled in the cash office around the corner. My room was superb - facing an inner courtyard but light with generous Aqua di Parma toiletries and a minibar with water the price of Iceland. The bed was fabulous and the food excellent. Worth the trip - if you can afford it.

A reasonably priced hotelwith a lively atmosphere. . Good view and plenty of room. . The room was clean. However expensive WiFi, which should be free.

The rooms are spacious and nicely decorated; breakfast buffet is excellent. The location is OK. The lobby is on the smaller side but upscale.
