- Jersen05 (9/5): Bonita estadía - Es un lindo lugar para quedarse, un poco caro quizá por la zona y lo que ofrece pero está bien. Tengan en cuenta que a las habitaciones se sube por escalera, la ducha tiene buena potencia de agua aunque era rara ya que no salía de forma pareja.
Está a 20 min de la Basílica en tranvía, al San Siro tiene un tiempo de unos 40 min. Te dan café y hay una cafetera y jarra eléctrica en la habitación Tengan en cuenta que hay que pagar el impuesto de la ciudad y es bastante caro (9 euros por noche/persona).
No me gustó que el llavero de la habitación sea tan grande y pesado, se hace poco práctico para llevarlo
- Anastasiia (10/5): -
- Sofia (10/5): -
- Jolanta (9/5): Fantasyczny czas! - Świetna lokalizacja, cisza i spokój, ale dość blisko centrum. Pokój bardzo dobrze wyposażony, codziennie sprzątany, ekspres do kawy, czajnik, sejf, klimatyzacja. Piękny, klimatyczny budynek, pokój ładnie i komfortowo urządzony. Doskonały kontakt z gospodarzem. Brakuje półki na kosmetyki w łazience, ale to nie zmienia ogólnych świetnych warunków.
- Julie (7/5): Okay - Close to the centre, large room, clean, comfortable bed There were building works right next door and while that was not an issue over the weekend, on Monday morning the works started at 7am. It would have been nice to have been informed so we new what to expect!
It's also next door to a military zone so while it's a safe area the view isn't very appealing.
- Baseggio (10/5): -
- Nina (9/5): Parfait pour un séjour à Milan au calme - Chambres très confortables ! Silencieuses, lit très confortable
Localisation parfaite, parc Sempione à proximité directe!
- Brian (7/5): Enjoyed a lovely comfortable and relax stay with an attentive host Thank you - The location excellent - close to most attractions and the tram line Easy entry to accomodation The host was attentive and efficient with cleaning Bed was comfortable Area was quiet and good to have the Sempione Park close by No dark curtains so room was light! No great view ! Narrow staircase that needed white tape on the edge of each step to make it safe
- Camilla (10/5): We stayed 2 nights mid-april. The location was perfect for us. - Location, big room and staff The “shower head” needs to be replaced ;)
- Manfred (9/5): Grosse Zimmer, gute Lage - Ruhige Lage, grosse Zimmer, Parkplatz gleich neben an (20 Euro/Tag), sauber und gemütlich. In die Stadt/Zentrum mit den scooter 15 minuten, zum laufen ca 30 Minuten. Gute Lage, unkomplizierter Check In, freundlich. Jederzeit wieder für ein Mailand weekend.
- Gisel (9/5): Excelente, sobre todo por la calidez humana de todo el personal. Te sentis en casa. - el personal y su gran predisposicion le falta un poco de iluminacion al baño
- Geoffroy (9/5): Un lugar encantador - Todo en general. Volveremos seguro. Muy recomendable.
- Rodal (9/5): Vi bor absolutt her ved en senere anledning. - Selvinnsjekk med kode på ytterdøren fungerte fint. Svært gjennomført og nydelig innredet. Alt var svært ryddig og rent og sengen og sengetøyet var av veldig god kvalitet. Fint baderom. Minibar med kald drikke. Stille og rolig. Store vinduer som kunne åpnes. Sentralt, med det du trenger like ved. Du kan kjøpe frokost, og den var aldeles nydelig og verdt hver ei krone i et hjemmekoselig spiseområde. I tillegg til brød og pålegg kom den svært vennlige eldre damen med nystekte croissanter, frukt og den beste cappuccino. Ingen ting.
- Nataliya (3/5): Renovierungsbedürftig - Saubere Bettwäsche und Badetücher Zimmerausstattung ist öde, komische Bilder überall, die wir einfach runternehmen wollten, fast kein Licht im Zimmer , keine Verdunkelung bei den Fenstern, kein Spiegel im Zimmer, die Polster waren zu hart und zu groß, die Dusche ist alt, verrostet und Duschvorhang (war nur ein Fetzen) hängt auf einem Draht. Zum Garten war kein Zugang erlaubt. Die Haushälterin Sonja war sehr nett zu uns. Das Zimmermädchen spricht fast kein Englisch. Nur Italienisch leider.
- Massimiliano (10/5): - Tutto Insonorizzazione porta camera
- Konstantins (10/5): A warm and welcoming stay - I stayed at Casa Calicantus for two nights and had a wonderful experience. The host was exceptionally kind and welcoming, making me feel at home from the very beginning. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the city. -
- Asa (10/5): - Soggiorno molto confortevole in una struttura di grande charme. La posizione è ottima per visitare Milano e mi sono trovato molto bene. Lo consiglio vivamente!
- Susanne (10/5): Heerlijk - Ontzettend vriendelijke gastvrouw, ontbijt was ook top. Het ligt niet zo ‘gezellig’ maar als je eenmaal binnen bent, is dat weg.
- Pauline (7/5): Sympa mais bruyant - Ancienne bâtisse pleine de charme. Localisation idéale. La chambre est confortable et le ménage dans la chambre a été fait durant les 2 jours de notre visite. L’isolation est très mauvaise et la rue très bruyante durant la nuit. La salle de bain mériterait une rénovation. Le rideau de douche était une bâche accrochée par un fil, il y avait de la moisissure dans la douche et il faut attendre longtemps avant d’avoir de l’eau chaude.
- YEN CHUN LUIGI (8/5): Confortevole. Migliore se non avessi avuto problemi alla deambulazione, che non avevo ben previsto. - L'arredo interno è gradevole.
La presenza delle chiavi è confortante, poiché sono ancora poco abituato ai codici numeri che a Milano sono così diffusi per accedere agli edifici. La sistemazione delle grucce per gli abiti. I ripiani sottostanti ne limitavano la lunghezza.
- Barbara (10/5): Beautiful few days in Milan. Casa Calcaneus was a perfect hotel for me. And when it was time to leave I walked to the co - Gorgeous hotel, super clean, conveniently located.
- Louise (8/5): Well restored historical family home - The room is made up again every day. For the summer there is a nice little garden at the back. Despite being near the railway, you don't hear it. It's near some lovely Gardens and the Arch where the Olympic flame was burning. Despite being opposite the Central Carabinieri of Milan, it is not noisy and can be quite entertaining :-) Beautiful old family house well restored. Lovely cafe and really good supermarket not far away. Also the tram line is close. There's nothing I didn't like

- francesco (9/5): - L'insieme
- Külliki (8/5): -
- Simge (10/5): Sessiz ve konforlu - Tramvayla ulaşım çok kolaydı, oda yeterince büyüktü ve dinlenmek için rahat bir yatağa sahipti, odada kahve makinesi olması bizim için büyük bir artıydı. Sessiz ve rahat bir konaklama için mükemmel bir yer. Yok
- Michela (8/5): Un "gioellino" a Milano - Molto accogliente. Bellissimi gli arredi. Una piacevole scoperta! Niente

- GAELLE (8/5): - Emplacement parfait pour découvrir Milan.
Établissement propre, literie confortable, personnel très agréable. Il y avait un chien qui aboyait le matin et le soir, je ne sais pas s'il appartenait aux propriétaires ou à un client mais c'était assez désagréable de l'entendre aboyer!!!
- Luis (10/5): At the end of our three week trip we just needed somewhere to relax and pack for the long flight home. It was perfect fo - Good location, very friendly staff. Perfect for our last few days in Italy. Location felt safe, secure and comfortable.

- Pizziolo (9/5): -
- Henna (9/5): - Hyvä sijainti, rautatieasema/metro 1,2 km. Raitiovaunu ja paikallisbussit 100m.
Ruokakauppa lähellä.

- Анна (10/5): -
- YJ (10/5): - Classical building with cosy hotel rooms, close to tram station which leads directly to old city center. Just next to the Sforza castle garden as well. Also close to the Caserta station which we took Malpensa Express from. Very convenient! The receptionist only talked Italian but we could communicate through translator, when there was any problem she was ready to help us quickly. The communication over Booking.com was with the owners who are fluent in English. On the day we were tired and wanted to sleep longer, the cleaning lady came and knocked repeatedly on the door. Of course that's her job and it was not a big deal, but it might be helpful to provide 'please clean up' and 'do not disturb' label for each room.
- Maurizio (9/5): Ottima posizione - La dimensione della stanza, la pulizia, il design. Non abbiamo provato la doccia perchè siamo stati poco L'illuminazione della stanza era carente. Tutto troppo buio

- William (10/5): A great little hotel in a decent location. - The location and value for the price were excellent. Nothing..
- Nodira (9/5): - Потрясающая локация. Хотелось рассмотреть каждую деталь, каждую комнату. Гостиница интереснее чем некоторые музеи Нет лифта
- constanza (9/5): -
- Filion (10/5): On devait se rendre à l’aéroport malpensa et avec le train à côté c’était très facile - L’extérieur est un peu quelconque mais c’est un très bel hotel à l’intérieur. 15 min de marche de la station de train, 7 minutes de marche de plusieurs bon restaurant. Lit et literie parfaite. Service du personnel excellent. Le quartier des resto est vraiment chic et sympathique.
- Michael (9/5): - This is a very nice facility. Good location and responsive hosts. Location
- Wendy (9/5): - Lovely and clean, good facilities and good location. Nothing specific
- Deniece (10/5): -
- Ross (10/5): Great location - great value. Highly recommend - The location was great. The service was very good. Breakfast was good and plentiful. There really isn’t much not to like. I would have preferred a curtain that covered the street lights and the sunlight but it was not that big an issue. It really is a great place and I would stay there again.
- Bárbara (10/5): - La casa es bellísima, decorada con buen gusto, algo ecléctica pero hermosa al fin y al cabo
Nos tocó la habitación No. 1
súper amplia y en una parte, con balcón y vista al jardin
Muy limpia, en una zona hermosa y tranquila, callada, sin embargo a unas pocas cuadras se realizan eventos culturales, deportivos
La casa se encuentra situada muy cerca del Arco de la Paz, zona vibrante y repleta de cafés, bares y restaurantes Todo me gustó
- Clément (9/5): -
- Hernán (10/5): - El hotel estuvo muy bueno, en una zona super tranquila pero a su alrededor bastantes restaurantes, como también el china town. El check-in fue super facil y descomplicado, el cuarto como también el baño limpios.
- Janine (8/5): Aangenaam verblijf - Basic hotel, heel aangenaam. leuk ingericht. ontbijt erbij te boeken. Rustige buurt. Water op kamer moest achteraf betaald worden.
- Nessia (9/5): -
- Jürgen (9/5): Wir waren mit dieser Unterkunft sehr zufrieden - Zentrumsnah gelegen, Mailänder Dom weniger als 2 km entfernt
empfohlene Tiefgarage 5 Gehminuten entfernt und außerhalb der Zentrumszone
Die Eisenbahn fährt direkt hinter dem Garten, wegen der Begrünung der Bahn keine störenden Geräusche
Unser Zimmer hatte Balkon zum Garten im schönen Schattenbereich
- Scilla (10/5): Exceptional -
- Chris (10/5): Exceptional -
- Zante1 (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely little hotel with a great location. It was easy to get in contact with the host.
- Andrea (9/5): Superb -
- Ali (7/5): It’s a good hotel. It may not be perfect in every aspect, but it’s worth the money you pay. - Enjoy generously sized rooms with elegant interior design, equipped with all the modern comforts—air conditioning, a refrigerator, and a coffee machine—plus the warm hospitality of our welcoming and attentive staff. The hotel is located a bit far from the nearest subway station. Housekeeping could be improved, as towels were not replaced daily and tissue supplies were not regularly replenished. Additionally, a few strands of hair were noticed on the bed sheets and towels, which was unpleasant. The presence of mosquitoes in the room was also an issue, and having an electronic mosquito repellent device would have made the stay more comfortable.
- Owen (10/5): Ideal for city break - Great location, with easy transport links all around Milan via the nearby Metro. Owners were friendly and helpful, and the room was clean and well presented - even had a balcony!
- Diana (9/5): Lovely and convenient: unbelievably good value. - Classically beautiful property with modern amenities like remote controlled A/C. Lovely balcony overlooking a garden. Convenient location for accessing public transit. Extremely good value. It felt a little unusual not to have staff physically present much of the time (though one can only enter the building if they have a code—it’s not a safety issue). But I was able to use Whatsapp and have my questions answered as late as past 10 pm.
- Catherine (9/5): Great hotel in Milan near Mico Conference centre - My room was spacious and comfortable. The hotel is charming and well located for the MiCo Conference centre. I didn't have breakfast but it looked very nice. Nothing
- Roxann (8/5): Fine - Beautiful room and close to a nice location with fabulous cafe’s/restaurants. Pillows weren’t very comfortable, not on the nicest street itself (although we never felt unsafe, just not very pretty).
- Rosa (7/5): Small clean room - Clean No elevator
- Charles (9/5): Superb - Brilliant location to major attractions
Spotless room
- Robert (10/5): Exceptional - The staff were amazing.
- Ginzburg (10/5): Love it so much! - Sonya is a charming and responsive woman. I liked the hotel very much. Good location in a quiet area not far from the castle. Very good quality of the hotel.
- Narcisa (10/5): Exceptional - The property and room were clean, we got clean towels every day, the room had also a minifrigider with different types of drinks. It is close to the most attractions and metro. And only 10-15 minutes from Duomo Di Milano!! I do highly recommend Casa Calicantus🥰😍
- Leticia (9/5): Superb -
- Laura (9/5): It was a pleasent stay, we were really happy with it and would recommend it to families. - The staff was very warm and helpful.
Also, our “room” was actually huge, the size of a small appartment really. There was bedroom, office room and balcony.
Very good location, it was quiet neighbourhood, but near the city center and trainstation.
We had check in booked for 15, but we arrived at the hotel a lot earlier. The staff let us in the room earlier. The staff did not speak english, so it would be helpful to know some italian. Nevertheless, the staff managed to communicate with us.
Breakfast is not included in the price, it will cost extra 10 euros per person. In my opinion, it is not much, as they offer coffe, tea, fresh bakeries and other goods.
- Miller (8/5): very nice place I'd recommend to others - Very comfortable beds. Room nice and quiet and well located Thought breakfast was included only to find out it wasn't
- Susan (9/5): Superb - The staff were very accomadating even though they did not speak any English.
Very clean and well appointed room There was not enough light on the bed to read in bed.
- Tommasina (8/5): Beautiful facility. Host is very responsive & helpful. There is no elevator , so if you are traveling with big sui - Very clean & well kept. Comfortable bed. Downstairs sitting area had beautiful traditional decor. Nice simple breakfast. My room (#5) had very dim lightning.
My room overlooked the street with a wire fence & the police station.
- Asim (8/5): Very good -
- Kiseok (9/5): Superb -
- Liana (10/5): Exceptional -
- Prashant (9/5): Superb -
- Matthews (10/5): Exceptional - Awesome, location, room, staff, and breakfast I didn’t have a single issue
- Christian (10/5): Exceptional -
- Bbtlondon (9/5): Beautiful old building with public transport nearby - Lovely old house with high ceilings, and furnished with style.
Proximity to Parco Sempione for running and a nice way of walking to the Duomo centre
Tram stop just around the corner very handy, as the nearest Metro (underground) station is 15 mins walk away
Kettle in room (but no longlife milk for tea and coffee)
Fridge and small mini bar
Useful large Carrefour supermarket very close
Could leave baggage in the building after checkout Front door was faulty and awkward to close
10am checkout is quite early
- Yulong (10/5): Exceptional - Great location, close to the city centre, very good manager, good room condition and is clean. Beautiful balcony and a great view outside. Next to a railway but not noisy overall.
- Mark (9/5): Stylish small hotel near Cadorna station - Beautiful stylish 6- room hotel. Spotless, quiet, good beds. No elevator, owner no English. Location is good if you want to be near Cadorna station to get to and from the airport easily, but a ways from the center or restaurants
- Tobias (9/5): Superb - Location: Top - Duomo in walking distance
Room: super super nice
People: very kind and friendly
