Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Hotel Pierre, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the higher floors (above floor 5) to minimize street noise from Via Edmondo De Amicis. The hotel's lift is located on the right-hand side of the building, so rooms on the left side (odd-numbered rooms) might experience less elevator noise.
Rooms to avoid
Floor 1 might be noisy due to its proximity to the service entrance and potential street activity. Rooms near the lift (e.g., rooms 101, 102, 201, 202) might also be noisier due to frequent elevator usage.
Best views
Some rooms on the higher floors (6-10) might offer views of the surrounding buildings or the city skyline, but this cannot be guaranteed without specific room details.
Quietest floors
Floors 6-10 are likely to be the quietest, given the hotel's higher elevation and distance from street noise.
🔊 Noise notes
Guests may be disturbed by street noise from Via Edmondo De Amicis, which is a relatively busy street in central Milano.
Insider tips
Request a room with a city view to enjoy the Milanese skyline, but be aware that this might not be available on all floors. Take advantage of the hotel's concierge service to arrange for a taxi or private car to the airport, as public transportation can be congested in the area.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field

🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Getting Around
Find train tickets →MXP Airport (T1 arrivals level) → Milano Centrale (west side)
💡 Don't bother with the door-to-door shared van services from the airport — the traffic on the Tangenziale Ovest is brutal, and you'll sit in it. The bus drops you at Centrale, then the metro is three stops to Cadorna.
Malpensa Airport (MXP) – Terminal 1 & 2 → Milan Central Station (Milano Centrale)
💡 Buy tickets online or at airport kiosks to avoid queues. From Centrale, get tram or metro (MM3 yellow line, stop Repubblica, then walk 5 min to Via Tarchetti).
Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP) → Hotel Boutique Duomo
💡 Book through the official app or taxi stand queue to avoid being overcharged; fixed rates to central Milan are around €100, but some drivers may try to add surcharges late at night.
Malpensa Airport (MXP) → Hotel Ambra (via G.B. Pirelli, 6)
💡 Ask the driver to drop you on via Scarlatti—Hotel Ambra's entrance is easier that side. Flat rate to city centre, but verify before setting off.
Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP) → Cadorna Station (then 10 min walk to hotel)
💡 Buy tickets at the machine or online in advance to save €2; the walk from Cadorna to Via Dogana (hotel) goes through Piazza Duomo – quick and scenic, but wheeled luggage rattles on the cobbles.
Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP) → Milano Cadorna Station
💡 From Cadorna it's a 10-minute walk to Hotel Fioralba. Buy tickets online or at kiosks, avoid buying from ticket touts near the station gates.
Malpensa Airport (MXP) Terminal 1 → Milano Centrale Station
💡 Buy a round-trip ticket online for €26—it's valid for 60 days. From Centrale, walk 8 minutes to hotel: head north on via Vittor Pisani then left onto via G.B. Pirelli.
MXP Airport (T1 & T2) → Milano Cadorna or Milano Centrale
💡 Buy tickets from the Trenord machines before boarding. Validate at the platform — €50 fine if caught without a validated ticket.
Malpensa Airport (MXP) – Terminals 1 & 2 → Milan Cadorna Station (or Centrale or Porta Garibaldi)
💡 Skip Centrale if you're heading directly to Hotel Berlino – get off at Cadorna, then take metro MM1 red line to Porta Venezia and walk 2 minutes to Via G.B. Pirelli.
Via Settembrini (near Centrale Station) → Piazza del Duomo
💡 Buy tickets at metro stations or tabacchi—don't board without validating; inspectors are strict. This tram passes near Hotel Fioralba; get off at Duomo and walk south on Via Mazzini.
Cadorna Station (from Malpensa Express) → Duomo Station (one stop on Line 1 or 3)
💡 Use the same ticket for both train and metro if journey is under 90 minutes total; buy a 24-hour pass (€7.60) if you plan more than two rides that day.
Cadorna Station (tram stop at Via Boccaccio) → Via Dogana (hotel, stop: Teatro alla Scala)
💡 Tram 1 runs past Castello Sforzesco and into Galleria Vittorio Emanuele – great intro to the city; buy a ticket from tabaccherie or the ATM app before boarding, as drivers don't sell them.

Top Attractions in Milano
💡 It's free but no online booking needed. The temporary exhibitions cost extra but are often skip-worthy.
💡 The tearoom next door (Caffè San Maurizio) is a good spot for a quiet coffee, but don't photograph the frescos with flash—the light damages them.
💡 Go early morning to have the place almost to yourself. No photography with flash allowed.
💡 Combines with the adjacent Museo Archeologico (which costs €5) but the church is free. Go just before noon or after 2pm to avoid tour groups.
💡 Bring snacks from the Mercato di Via Paolo Sarpi nearby; park benches fill up by noon on sunny days. The aquarium at the park's edge is free on the first Sunday of the month.
💡 Arrive 30 minutes before opening on free Sundays to avoid a 1-hour queue. Otherwise, standard tickets are €15, but you can book online at no extra cost.
💡 Bring a picnic and sit near the lake. Avoid the small zoo enclosures if animal welfare bothers you.
💡 Bring your own snacks—the on-site cafés are pricey. The grassy areas near the pond are less crowded than the main path.
