Comfortable Stay in Milan|Hotel Raphael
While exploring this charming city of Milan, I had the chance to stay at Hotel Raphael located in Certosa. The hotel's address, Viale Certosa 108, offers an incredibly convenient location. 🏙️ Just a few minutes' walk from QT8 Metro Station and easily accessible to the city center via Tram Line 14, getting around couldn't be easier! The excellent transport links made my stay hassle-free~
Though slightly away from the city center, this actually adds to its hidden charm—the quiet residential area provides a relaxing atmosphere. 🏡 The front desk staff were exceptionally friendly during check-in, warmly introducing the hotel facilities and nearby transport options, making me feel right at home. The interior decor is a bit dated, but the rooms are spacious and well-equipped, with amenities like a gym and bar meeting all my daily needs. The breakfast deserves special mention—it's incredibly varied, catering to different tastes and giving me a perfect energetic start to the day! 🥐☕️
The room was medium-sized but very clean and tidy. The bed was a bit firm, but I actually liked it and slept soundly. 🛏️ Room amenities included free WiFi, TV, and a mini-fridge, covering all the basics. However, while the bathroom was spacious, the shower stall was somewhat small, and the water temperature needed occasional adjustment. Overall, the room offered great value for money.
The hotel is also surrounded by great restaurants and attractions. Nearby, you can try delicious dishes at L'Immagine Ristorante Bistrot or visit famous landmarks like Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II and The Last Supper a bit further away. Tram stops and supermarkets in the area add to the overall convenience.
Of course, no place is perfect. Some rooms here have poor soundproofing, so you might occasionally hear hallway noise or street sounds. Light sleepers might want to bring earplugs. But these minor issues didn’t detract from my pleasant stay. 😊
If I ever return to Milan, I’d definitely consider staying at Hotel Raphael again. Though a bit old, its thoughtful service and unbeatable location are simply irresistible! 🌟
