Hotel Greco is a family-run property located in the northern area of Milan, about one kilometer from the Bicocca University campus, the Teatro degli Arcimboldi and the Milano Greco Pirelli railway station.
The rooms, some with private bathroom and others with shared bathroom, are equipped with satellite TV and free WiFi; air conditioning is available on request for a daily surcharge. The room offering ranges from doubles to family rooms with multiple beds, suitable for those traveling in groups or with children. The daily breakfast includes a hot drink and a croissant.
The reception is open 24 hours and offers fax service, internet connection and photocopying, while the staff provides directions and city maps. The area is well connected by bus and tram, with the Ca’ Granda metro station just steps away, making the hotel a practical base for those moving toward central Milan by public transport rather than by car.
Hotel Greco offers nine room types, from double to family rooms for six people, designed to meet different needs: from couples traveling to large groups. Most rooms have a private bathroom, satellite TV and free WiFi, while some more economical options share bathroom facilities on a common floor. Air conditioning is not included in the base rate but can be activated on request by paying a daily surcharge.
Room sizes range from 17 to 30 square meters and some superior rooms open onto a balcony or terrace overlooking the inner garden, while the room types with multiple bunk beds are designed for families or small groups who want to share the same space. The combination of double, single and bunk beds allows for different configurations, which can be communicated at the time of booking to ensure the preferred arrangement.
The smallest of the doubles with private bathroom, this 17 sqm room overlooks the garden and inner courtyard, with flat-screen TV and free WiFi. The bed configuration is flexible: it should be communicated to the property at the time of booking.
Slightly larger than the double, this 21 sqm triple combines a single bed with a French double bed, suitable for small groups or families with one child. En-suite bathroom, satellite TV and garden view complete the room.
At 28 sqm, this quadruple is among the most spacious rooms with private bathroom in the hotel. It offers two alternative bed configurations, with or without a bunk bed, designed to suit families with children or groups of friends.
An economical version of the standard double, this 19 sqm room shares a bathroom with other rooms on the floor, while still offering satellite TV and free WiFi. A practical solution for those looking for a more affordable rate.
Compared to the standard triple, this 23 sqm room forgoes the private bathroom in favor of a shared bathroom, while keeping satellite TV and free WiFi. Ideal for three people traveling together who don’t need en-suite facilities.
Designed for large groups, this quintuple room with private bathroom is one of the few rooms in the hotel with access to a balcony and terrace overlooking the garden. Two available bed configurations allow the room to be adapted for families or groups of friends.
The only option for solo travelers at the hotel, this bed in a six-bed mixed dormitory offers a bunk bed, private bathroom and garden view, in a shared environment designed for those traveling alone on a limited budget.
The largest room in the hotel at 30 sqm, designed for large families or groups of up to six people. It features a terrace with garden view, private bathroom and two possible bed configurations, either all bunk beds or with a double bed.
