Hotel berhampiran Parrocchia dei Santi Apollinare e Materno, Valbrona

The rooms are very comfortable and Cosy , nice environment, the hotel is close to the metro station and there are many restaurants around

We booked a double comfort room but we’re put in a disabled access room. Neither of us have mobility issues and are supposed to be on a romantic weekend away and we thought by booking a 4 star hotel we would get the romantic atmosphere advertised on line. We asked about room service when we arrived as it was quite late and were met with a response of “nothings open” despite the website advertising 24hour room service with no extra charge and free water from the mini bar. When we got to our room there was a notice on the side with information about the room service hours which also stated there would be a 3€ charge just to call down to room service, as well as a note on the mini bar stating a 1.50€ fee for water. Our bathroom does not have the bidet that’s stated in the room description online and the toilet is raised far too high for either of us to use comfortably. The rest of the bathroom is completely bare, with not so much as a shower curtain. Our safe does not work, despite someone coming to change the batteries inside and still no resolution to our issue! We have only one bedside table and had to resort to using the cheap plastic chair as a replacement on one side of the bed. The receptionist was less than cooperative when we went down to discuss our feelings/options and we were met with “we don’t change the bookings this is what you booked”. After showing her our booking and where it stated what we paid for she responded with “we’re full so we can’t move you unless you want to sleep separately or if someone cancels” . We feel as though we have been lied to and don’t feel as though we have been provided with the service that we have paid for. Having seen the room pictures online of what we had actually booked we are completely disgusted and can’t help feeling a bit discriminated against due to us being a same sex couple. It’s our first time in Milan and this has truly tainted our view and will probably not be coming back at all.

Measuring all that matters to me, I was so very pleased with Hotel Corso Bruno. The staff are welcoming, warm, helpful. The breakfast (coffee and fresh cakes in particular) are delicious. The views from my room and access to the lake is breathtaking yet cannot be captured in a photo (sadly). The room is clean and modest allowing me to enter and not feel over stimulated. I saved that for the churches and views and local architecture. When I return to this part of the world, and I will, I shall return to Hotel Corso Bruno.

Small room, terrible windows placement with illogical size, perhap architect who design this favor aesthetic facade over functional room. For working desk, so close to the bed that make even pulling out chair is tidy, putting big working desk with two out of this world chairs is also terrible approach. The chair is simple sitting very uncomfortable with next to no functional proper back rest. Dimension of shower area is huge disappointment, so small, how come larger people can squeeze in here with comfortable. Elevators also come in terrible quality, unsmoothing transitions from start floor to arrival floor. That said I've been put into a box of terrible desgin approach from architect, interior designer for this hotel. Im also qualified architect from Vietnam, top 10 firms, and this is huge disappoitment for this booking.

Molto soddisfatto. Unico piccolo problema è che l'ascensore dal secondo piano non ci faceva scendere per andare al piano terra, dovevamo per forza andare al -1 per poi salire con le scale. Ma è l'unica nota leggermente negativa in un'esperienza ottima.

Buona struttura, in posizione strategica. Colazione ottima e pulizia molto buona. Ampio parcheggio. Purtroppo però la struttura è molto trascurata, ho prenotato 2 camere matrimoniali e vale quanto segue per entrambe le camere: ventola aerazione bagno non funzionante, forte odore di umido in tutta la camera, cassa della porta del bagno con legno marcio a causa della vicinanza alla doccia. Ho regalato il soggiorno ad una coppia di amici che viaggiava insieme a me, abbiamo dormito comunque bene ma la figura non è la stessa che faceva questa struttura un paio di anni fa.
