Great boutique hotel, the property was very trendy and cool including a speak easy cocktail bar and restaurant. We ate both lunch and dinner at the property, the quality of the food was excellent and the staff was very polite and attentive including making local wine pairings. Rooms were new, clean, comfortable and spacious and having a small balcony was a bonus. We also enjoyed the on-site gym which was huge by European hotel standards. Overall great stay and I would highly recommend.

Aethos Milan is a solid 4-star hotel... but a couple of things made it fall short of a true 5-star status in my view. These might be small things, but having a high standard for 5-star status (and the elevated prices that they carry accordingly) is something an hotel with this designation in an international city surely expects its customer to have.

The Good: Room was large and very cool -- high ceilings, great bathroom, ample room for bags and work desk space, large windows. Location is great -- easy walking to 2-3 hip neighborhoods, on a main street for easy arrival and departure logistics, near several neighborhoods for great nightlife away from touristy central plazas. Restaurant and Bar on-site are *very* cool -- the Doping Bar in particular is a place I would gladly take friends or spend a cocktails night out in the future, even if I weren't staying there. Service Staff is excellent -- friendly, helpful, multi-lingual.

The Less Good (i.e. reasons I give it 4-stars instead of 5): Relatively loud -- rooms have somewhat poor sound insulation between them, and the street noise from sirens and motorbikes is pretty prominent at night. Light sleepers would have a hard time some nights. Security -- the property is pretty much wide open, day and night, since guest rooms can easily be accessed via passageways and stairs that are open all of the time via the restaurant and bar areas. Our room door lock was weak and I was able to push the door open once accidentally.

The hotel is very clean and well maintained. Location is perfect, close to restaurants and bar in Navigli area and walking distance or public team to Duomo.
It gives a feeling of of all inclusive resit even though it’s in a city. Guests are allowed to walk anywhere and anytime. The staff are very polite and friendly. They are all very helpful and alway willing to help to accommodate when being asked something rather than just replying not possible and stick to the formal rule (which is very common in other hotels).

The Aethos Milano is a bit of a hidden gem, somewhat removed from the tourist jumble around the Duomo and Galleria. It sits on a busy thoroughfare and is almost invisible from the street if not for the small name on the awning.

Once inside, it's a maze of interestingly-decorated lounge and restaurant spaces, which one must navigate to reach the elevator to your room.

The hotel staff was outstanding in every regard, with a special shout-out to the helpful ladies at the front desk and the friendly servers at the breakfast venue. (BTW, the daily breakfast included with the room was excellent.)

We stayed in a Junior Suite, which was really nothing more than a slightly oversized room with a large outdoor terrace. The room was very clean, comfortable and well-appointed. The outdoor area was nice but afforded you almost no privacy from your neighbors save for a few strategically-placed plants.

All in all, we had an enjoyable stay, but a word of caution: Take a quick look at the hotel's website and social media feed. It will give you a clear understanding of the demographic to which they try to cater—the young and/or trendy. Are you the type who enjoys a DJ spinning tunes at Sunday brunch? Do you expect your hotel to be \"Instagrammable\"? Do you prefer a quiet-night's sleep or a party scene? Not to judge, but these are all things to consider before booking here.

Fantastic decor throughout with very helpful and friendly staff. Small but well appointed gym. Breakfast very good. Doping bar is great.

Navigli is lively with lots of places to eat and drink. Duomo is walkable in about 25 mins.

Large room with very comfortable large bed.
A couple of pieces of furniture in the room needed upgrading but these are minor points.

Excellent hotel and hospitality! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by name and congratulated on our honeymoon. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and answered all questions.

The hotel has an amazing bar included that was the coolest bar we went to in Milan. The room was spacious, clean, and very well decorated.

The location was incredible. About a 20ish minute walk to downtown center, but right next to Navigli canals, which we enjoyed a lot more than the touristy center of the city. Plenty of metro transportation. It’s a busy area so parking was a bit complicated, but I think anywhere in Milan will be similar.

A good hotel in a great neighbourhood of Milan. A 30 min walk from the key sightseeing area around the Duomo and easily accessible via Tram 3. The welcome could have been better, we arrived after dark in a terrible rainstorm on Saturday night (4/11) and found the reception staff to be young, with a couldnt care less approach. No welcome, no helpful info on the hotel ie breakfast times or a basic introduction to the incredibly confusing layout of the hotel. They also pushed back on the VIP reward - although we subsequently worked this out with reception the next day. Our comfortable and quiet room was through reception and back outside, through The Doping Bar (a brilliant and incredibly busy bar) to a small door that took you to a lift to the rooms. The team member who showed us to our room could not work out how to operate the lighting in the room and left us in the dark wondering what exactly we had booked! Everything improved enormously the following morning at breakfast. The team working in Zaia serving breakfast were really fantastic! Attentive, interested and offered some great suggestions on things to do. The breakfast was delicious and worth adding to your booking. Overall we settled into this rather disjointed hotel and got in tune with its eccentric feel. We would definitely return.

Staff Awesome But Bathroom Disgusting

First off this staff is amazing the hotel really stylish. The room was very cool but the amenities not so much! no steamer no iron in room, no menu for mini bar no information for guest no room service, maybe this was an oversight but I hate asking for things. The bathroom had mold and our shower clogged and flooded the bathroom it was disgusting and I had to go without a shower that day so I didn’t flood the whole room. While they fixed the shower and cleaned up there was mold all over the tile grout and that’s gross even above the shower and the window which is not a sign of a good hotel it’s actually unacceptable. Nobody made any effort to compensate or say sorry not even breakfast or coffee or drinks anything would of been better then nothing I didn’t ask to move rooms it’s unfortunate that this hotel didn’t make a better effort. We bought breakfast everyday it was good it was not included which was ok with me the bar was beautiful and hip but very loud and you could hear music till 1am in the morning at least in my suite.

We stayed for one night. It is possible to drive to the property without dealing with congestion charges. Parking there is quite expensive but they were generous with leaving the car there on checkout day so it was quite convenient (tram line 3 from the centre). Rooms are very clean and unique. Bar area is a bit of a scene and eclectic and might not suit all visitors.

Walking into The Yard is like stepping into a nostalgic past in some other dimension. The entrance is like walking into a secret escape and even the staff look as though they belong on a movie set. My eyes were never bored in finding fascinating furniture, pictures, and design elements. The bar was amazing and drinks fascinating and the rooms were chic and spacious. I would however note that we were living in the yard of a lounge/bar with all of its energy, but some of us thrive there. The Yard was definitely an enchanting escape for us.

Every time we came back to the hotel at night we were stopped by what seemed like guards as they were having private parties in the bar/lounge area. Would be nice if we could've ordered food to be delivered to our room or have been able to eat in the restaurant but as I said, they were hosting \"private events\" each night we were there.

Cool Hotel, good position for sight seeing

There was a photo shoot going on when we arrived , which complicated check in and restricted the space.

Hotel insisted on taking credit card detail although we had paid everything in advance via Expedia.

It was eventually sorted out but shouldn't have happened.
