Constructed in the early 1900s and remodeled in 2011, the three-and-a-half-pearl Hotel Ambasciatori combines neo-Renaissance architecture with contemporary mid-century modern furniture. The 93 rooms have minibars and spacious bathrooms with separate tubs and walk-in showers. Breakfast is included in room rates, but other meals aren't served on-site; fortunately, the hotel's central location puts it within easy access of plenty of restaurants and tourist sights like Milan Cathedral. Travelers may want to compare rates at the NH Collection Milano President Hotel, another centrally located property with an urbane style.

The 30-room Hotel Palladio is a charming budget hotel with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It’s far from the city center but surrounded by restaurants and bars and is well within walking distance to public transportation. Rooms are basic and functional, and surprisingly spacious, with amenities that include air-conditioning and flat-screen TVs (with no English channels); some also have minibars and balconies. The biggest drawbacks are the small showers, slow Wi-Fi speeds at certain times during the day, and lack of breakfast. As an alternative, the 22 Marzo Hotel has more dated decor, but provides a free breakfast and a small on-site bar.

The Hotel Terminal -- part of the small Alfa Hotels chain -- provides basic, budget lodging close to the Milano Centrale train station and the Sondrio metro stop, a few stops from the city center and the Duomo. Rooms are large, clean, and modern and have hardwood floors, but they lack coffee- and tea-makers. Rates, while often low, don’t include breakfast, and the decor throughout is bland and old-fashioned. Travelers looking for more stylish accommodations -- and who don’t mind paying a little bit more -- can try the nearby Biocity Hotel, which has an eco-friendly theme.
