About this property

Milan: Elegant and Central Apartment in front of Castello Sforzesco

This recently renovated apartment is on second floor of a typical building of the first years of 1900, in the central Piazza Castello, with both bedrooms looking onto the beautiful Castello Sforzesco and Parco Sempione, the largest public park in Milan.
The Duomo of Milan is a 10-minute walk along the pedestrian-only Via Dante. The financial district and the fashion district are both at walking distance. In the neighborhood of Piazza Castello you will also find Santa Maria delle Grazie, famous for the Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci, and the Brera quarter, famous for Pinacoteca, art schools and night life.
The area is also very well served by public trasportation: in fact, both the red line and the green line of the subway are at 100 meters, in Piazza Cadorna; this way, most of the city (including the slightly out-of-town new Milan Fair) is within 30 minutes from the apartment. Several buses and trams stations in the area, and the new public bike sharing service complete the offer.

Just Perfect!

Right from the moment we met Andrea we knew we would be very well looked after. Andrea met us at the time arranged and took us through the apartment, he ensured that we were comfortable and that all our needs were met. The apartment is bright and airy, overlooking the Castello Sforzesco, fortress, palace and now a museum with parkland, it has a little balcony which was a bonus for viewing. The apartment is very central, but also quiet, within a secure building in a beautiful and historic part of Milan.Walking distance to just about everything! The Duomo of Milano - the Cathedral, the amazing shopping precinct and lots of other interesting precincts with restaurants and galleries within the city. We walked everywhere, however the tramline and trains are also so very close by. We thoroughly enjoyed our very comfortable stay in the apartment.

Me and my Father really enjoyed our stay at Andrea’s!! Andrea is a great host who is very kind and welcoming. Despite the language barrier, he communicated with us very well and treated us with care. If you ever need anything, he makes sure to help you to the best of his ability. The apartment is homey and is a great location to explore Milan. Dining, shops, transportation, and tourist locations are all within walking distance. If I ever come back to Milan, I definitely stay here again!!

Great location, great host

Super clean, easy to work with host Andrea (his English is much better than my Italian, but his translating app was put to good use!). Older building and some quirky things to be aware of (don't run dishwasher and washing machine at the same time, etc), a few creaky floors, but comfortable bed and an incredible setting just opposite Sforza Castle. Convenient to Cadorna AND Cairoli transit stations (the latter is where we picked up the HOHO bus AND a tour bus to Lake Como). You can take the Malpensa Express from Cadorna station to the Malpensa airport if needed. Some good restaurants nearby, and a little grocery store not too far. Close to The Last Supper too (15 minute walk, be sure to get your tickets early or do a LivItaly tour like we did). In short, Andrea was a great host and we were very comfortable in this apartment. Thank you, Andrea!

Great stay in Milan!

We had a great time in Milan! This was a great area to stay in. It was a short walk to the Duomo and around the corner from the train station. It was very easy to get there from MXP. The view is of the Castello and you feel like royalty when waking up in the morning. The host was extremely kind and friendly.

Best view and location in Milano

The apt is very big and comfortable with beautiful balcony and window opening towards the Castello Sforzesco, in the best location of Milano. Short walking to the major sights, Cadorna train station and shopping. The elevator is antique and working as well as everything in the apartment. I highly recommend this place. The host is very helpful too.

Best location, best host!

We loved staying at Andrea’s apartment. He is a very attentive host and the location was great. The Castello Sforzesco is right outside, 5 mins walk from Caderno Metro and 10 mins walk to the Duomo. The apartment building itself is a really interesting period building with an old school wooden lift and doors about 5” thick. The apartment is spacious and had everything we needed for a short stay. I’d highly recommend it.

The Castle View

We were able to find a lovely Cafe just around the corner. The Majestic Cafe and Bistrot. Claudia was an amazing hostess. I had lost my ability to venture very far so this was perfect. Our accommodations were very old which made them eccentric. The central heating wasn’t turned on during our stay so the cold weather made the apartment very cold. Our host only spoke Italian but translating by phone app worked just fine. Andrea was a great help with logistics. Thanks Andrea!

Great Location!

This location is perfect! You can’t beat the view! A short walk to the Duomo but right next to the Brera neighborhood where things are a bit less touristy. The key situation was a bit overwhelming at first but we quickly figured it out. I was concerned about the lack of AC- temps were in the high 80’s, but it was comfortable enough. I’d stay here again.

Wonderful quirky apartment

We had a great time staying here. The apartment had all our needed amenities, including a dishwasher, washing machine, and huge windows with lots of natural light. Andrea is a fantastic host and was very communicative and responsive to our needs. Be aware that it is in an old building with some quirks, so you may have to adjust your expectations, but it worked well for us. The location couldn't be better: just a short walk to restaurants and shops and, of course, right across the street from the Castillo and a short 6-minute walk to the metro station. Overall, it was a very comfortable and enjoyable experience for our first time in Milan!
