Hotels in Gerenzano

Sulla strada principale di Gerenzano, con difficoltà di parcheggio immediato, ci sono dei posti limitati limitrofi e dall'altro lato della strada, mentre i sotteranei hanno un costo di 10€ al giorno, ma si può poggiare momentaneamente l'auto nei pressi dell'ingressi per lo scarico valigie. La location all'esterno è carina, sembra di recente ristrutturazione, così come la hall, mentre tutto il resto della struttura invece è datato, con parecchi segni del tempo visibili; idem per la stanza, abbastanza pulita ed ordinata, ma non molto confortevole, il letto matrimoniale creato con l'unione di due singoli, con materassi sottili e non comodissimi, non è stato proprio il massimo. La colazione senza infamia ne lode, meglio la parte dolce della salata, ma nel complesso prodotti molto industriali, nella presentazione a buffet carina, ma di poca sostanza. Il personale è stato cordiale, mentre la nota positiva, forse l'unica, è stato il prezzo, 70€ a notte nel periodo di Pasqua, buono. Nel complesso non ci tornerei, esperienza da hotel a 3 stelle.

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

This place definitely has its pro’s and con’s and it depends what sacrifices you are willing to make for price. Looking at other reviews I thought I wouldn’t mind it as I’m not too fussy usually but overall I felt uncomfortable and didn’t really want to stay any longer than I had to: Pro’s -Good cheap price -Whilst further out, it’s super convenient for public transport right outside the hotel only 2 euro to get into Milan only takes 30 mins tops -The man on reception was lovely and very helpful -Rooms are big and whilst very dated and nothing to shout home about if you’re used to budget travelling they aren’t filthy or falling apart -Nice big shower room -Fast, free Wi-Fi and slippers and towels Cons -We felt the area at times was slightly scary (although we did first arrive at night) some concerning characters/gangs in surrounding areas and appeared to be in the hotel as well. It’s a pretty rundown area and we didn’t feel very comfortable there -The walls - I’ve never known anything quite like it to be honest it was so so loud I could hear absolutely everything the entire time. Babies crying, doors shutting, people talking/shouting, playing music, stomps up the hallway - constantly and late into the night waking us up. This all added to the sense of un-ease as it didn’t seem like you were on your own and I couldn’t relax in the room and just wanted to leave. -We were also in an outhouse which wouldn’t usually be a problem but felt so exposed as it was that it just added to the feeling Despite all the positives we couldn’t look past these negatives and I really wouldn’t recommend regardless of price.

Wonderful place to stay in! The hotel is comfortable and nice, staff is very, very friendly and the rooms are clean. The rooms have lovely balconies. Soundproofing was bad though - I could hear everything happening in the corridor. Also there was a (locked) door leading from my room to the one next to me and when my ”neighbour” was taking a shower or watching TV, I could hear everything so well that I woke up one morning my shower was on. The location is bit weird, but worth the train ride and walk.

WOW - this is just the most magnificent boutique hotel and a truly exceptional position. It’s super close to the lake AND shops AND restaurants - we only had a day and a half but I would gladly come back for a few days. One of our rooms had a window view directly our over the lake (302) and the other had a little balcony that offered views of the lake. (403) . I preferred the 302 room but my daughter said that it was a bit noisy due to the stream of cars. The rooms are comfy although I always dislike the joined single beds to create a king bed with a join. I always seem to end up stuck in the join (no matter how small the crack😂) The decor of the hotel is like a plush reminder of the 1930s - I felt like George Cluney might come round a corner at any moment. The building is superb and VERY picturesque. Service has been excellent and we feel very privileged. We have just finished breakfast in the most divine outdoor setting in the hotel grounds overlooking the lake. It is a bright blue sky and the wind is calm - I don’t think life gets much better than this.. Last night we dined at Ristorante Sottovoce which was a mere 100m away and absolutely as MUST do while staying at the perfect venue. “It’s such a shame we’re only here for one night” , my wife just said. But we still have a few hours to do a guided but tour with a private captain/guide - so there is still more special-ness to enjoy.

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.

Room was comfortable, location was convenient as well. The entrance staff service was good, he would help to carry your luggage up the stairs. Also, he gave advice to remind guests to watch out for pickpockets. There is ALDI supermarket around the corner as well. Food has no standard, would suggest to eat out instead. Housekeeping staff did not replenish complimentary water one of the days and went to reception to request. However, receptionist called housekeeping and was told water was replenished even though it is not true.

The hotel is very close to the train station, but the entrance is quite small, causing some difficulty in finding it. The breakfast on the top floor is excellent, and the rooms provide a view of the train station.

There is nothing bad I can say about our stay at this hotel. The location is excellent everything you want is within a short walking distance. The staff are all very friendly and helpful, the staff on reception went above and beyond to help me out with a boat trip I had booked through someone else, which was cancelled at the last minute. They tried very hard and succeeded in arranging another trip at very short notice, which meant so much to me as it was one of the highlights of the trip. Our room was at the back but still with nice views, the room itself was lovely with a very nice bathroom and huge walk in shower. There was everything you would want at breakfast, even a glass of prosecco if you wished. I usually went for smoked salmon and scrambled eggs but there was lots more to choose from, bacon, mushrooms, hams, cheeses, fruit, pastries, cereal, yoghurts ect and to top it off the room itself was beautiful and overlooked the lake. We ate in the restaurant on the first day and had an excellent meal, again with very helpful friendly staff. At the front of the hotel there is a terrace area where you can sit and enjoy drinks and snacks, a lovely area to enjoy pre dinner cocktails. I would highly recommend this hotel and Lake Como.

I´m not sure how it is like to stay at Ostelzzz for several nights, but I find it a very convenient solution for me who arrived around midnight in Milan, and already had leave from Milano Centrale by noon on the next day. I had a proper sleep for one night in a capsule. It really was a hostel, but with so much better privacy. Staffs were extremely kind and helpful. They gave me a welcome drink. Online check-in in advance made my actual check-in so much easier. Had everything I needed, incl breakfast, towel too. Clean and well-organized. Breakfast was simple, but more than good enough for me. I wouln´t hesitate to choose Ostelzzz next time.
