Bottom Line

This 87-room hotel, part of a small Italian chain, has simple stylish decor and is located just outside the city center, within walking distance of Milan’s lively Navigli district. There’s no sign, so the hotel can be a little hard to find. Aside from the modern design, there isn’t enough to make this a true four-star as advertised -- there’s no restaurant or gym, and the hotel charges a fee for Wi-Fi. Travelers seeking a similarly trendy-looking hotel with more amenities can try the nearby Nhow Hotel Milan, which has a restaurant, bar, and gym with a Turkish bath, though slightly higher rates. Those who want to be closer to the city center and don’t mind less of an emphasis on style can try the Idea Hotel Milano Corso Genova, which is less expensive and within walking distance of the Duomo.

Oyster Hotel Review

IH Hotels Milano Watt 13

Scene

Modern, black-and-white design throughout the common areas, which includes a sunny breakfast room

The hotel’s contemporary brick facade has no sign, and inside there’s a similarly minimalist, mostly-white modern design with a touch of black and light-colored wood. Decor in the lobby includes funky sculptural planters and modern black leather armchairs, with black-and-white photographs lining the walls. The breakfast room is also stylish, with walls of glass lined with artsy photos of Italian cities and black flowers. There are spots to relax in the lobby, as well as an all-white, space-age bar with cluster of tables and a flat-screen TV.

Location

In a residential area outside the city center, within walking distance of Navigli

The hotel is in a quiet residential neighborhood close to the canals, with some shops but few restaurants in the immediate area. Milan’s lively Navigli area, filled with restaurants and bars, is a 20-minute walk away. The Duomo can be reached in 20 to 25 minutes by tram. The Malpensa airport is a 45-minute drive and an hour and 10 minutes away via public transport, which includes a 15-minute walk to the Romolo metro station and catching the Malpensa Express at the Cadorna Station.

The beds are backed by headboards of cream-colored squares framed by wood. In the bathrooms are sleek black tiles and bowl sinks, and some have bright red counters. There are large stall showers and hairdryers. Other amenities include flat-screen TVs, minibars, and safes. Some rooms have small balconies.
