Ostello Bello Grande

I had a wonderful experience here! Incredibly convenient to the trains/metro/buses. Clean room, free dinner, kitchen, terraces, friendly staff! I went into this a little nervous because it was my first hostel experience, but I was genuinely impressed. I would stay here again!

Enjoyed staying here. Made some friends, the staff are sweet, decent service! Includes a free welcome drink. Only drawbacks is the area is slightly shady, but only slightly. And once you’re in the hostel it feels pretty safe. But fortunately it’s close to the main central station. Things to note- Bring your own towel, toiletries and LOCK AND KEY , else you’ll have to buy them here at the hostel. The locker storage doesn’t come with the lock and key. Although it would seem this practice is there in many European hostels Overall great experience as a solo female traveller ( who stayed in mixed dorms here)

Great value for mone, free drink token on check-in, fantastic karaoke night and free light buffet dinner provided! Decent ensuite for each dorm room. Cleanliness was good. Well situated with the Milan Central Station right round the corner and close access to regular shuttle buses to the airport as well as a lovely rooftop terrace. Metro easily accessed too and easy to use. Great for meeting new people.

I haven’t have lots of experience in Hostels, but this one is the best one I had ever been to. Amazing location and very clean room, lovely roommates from different countries, easy to make new friends. However, the AC is the only problem which only with fix temperature 23 degrees, it’s cold at the midnight during sleeping. This hostel has everything you can not image, like you will get a free drinks at the bar, you can use the ingredients in the kitchen and cook something for yourself if you don’t wanna eat out. In additions, they have nice loft and some other places for leisure, good place for new friends chatting. I really recommend this hostel for all travelers, especially solo travelers😎. Love it, so cool and nice experience here.

I'm a 64 year old professor and woman with silver hair, so not your average hostel dweller these days - but I had a short stopover in Milan between trains and was really pleasantly surprised by this little vibey hostel and 4-woman dorm room. This is literally across the road from Milano Centrale, around the back of the building, a couple of hundred meters at the most. Comfortable mattress, quiet rooms with surprisingly no traffic or sidewalk-café noise outside, quietly-opening storage drawers, clean and spacious bathroom and nice shower (much needed during the smoky heat dome over central-western-southern Europe this month). I arrived late and had to leave early, and it was perfect. A delicious free Americano coffee at dawn in the quiet shady garden at back, too. Thanks guys for a terrific, affordable stay!

Absolutely love it, meet amazing roommates. clean and tidy rooms. Staff were amazing in helping and responding. Lovely evening and food for everyone..good gesture. However, with a lot of code doors, lifts..for security reasons, entrance may be confusing, the place is upscale and not that spacious. Overall I recommend it.

The experience was mediocre. I was in two different rooms, and the mattresses in each of those rooms were low quality, could feel all of the metal mattress springs while sleeping. When I checked in, I asked for a bottom bunk bed for mobility reasons, the staff confirmed, yet when I arrived they did not reserve a bottom bed. At first they just said “sorry,” then they tried to compensate by giving me two free breakfast tokens. Furthermore, I also cook a lot of my own food. Despite my food being correctly labeled, the staff threw my food in the trash. Again, the front desk, just said “sorry” then they tried to give me a free drink. Finally I pressed them for cash compensation, they agreed to 10€, which still was not enough for the price of the food they threw away. This hostel definitely practices dynamic pricing, very exploitive and corporate hostel chain. The prices astronomically increase closer to your check in date. Overall, disappointed in their coordination and facility management.

Decent place - great location right next to the train station. Seems to be a little pricey for the city tho. The breakfast is definitely not worth paying for, definetly go eat somewhere else. The staff was fine, not welcoming but not particularly gruff. I would stay here again if I was in Milan.

I can't rave about Ostello Bello enough!! This was my first time staying in a hostel, and it was such a great experience. The staff was very nice. 24/7 bar was great. The entire hostel was very clean. I will 10000% be staying here next time I am in Milano

I won't get into what happened, but I just have to say that Ava is an angel. This is a friendly, clean hostel with a lovely staff and good rooms. Be mindful of your surroundings if you are a female solo traveler in this particular part of Milan but the hostel itself is good

Really great option for staying overnight and as a cheaper affordable hostel. Very convenient near the train station. Environment was very lively when my roommates and I arrived and gave us a free welcome drink as we came in. Very good security and the rooms are very clean! The elevators and staircases need your room key to access it. Also the foosball is very fun in the "Chill Room".

(I'm a 24 year-old guy from the US) Stayed here for 2 nights with my brother in a 6-person mixed dorm. The rooms are basic, with two 3-level bunk beds, and a small bathroom. The beds and linens I had were clean and didn't show any stains. We had a full room (even in November!) but everyone was nice and respectful. The showers were small but the water pressure was great. Overall, it was a clean and basic room setup. The Hostel is located extremely close to Milano Centrale and its Metro station which makes getting around very easy. They have fun activities every night (Karaoke was a party!) plus breakfast and dinner and a full bar. The food isn't amazing, but it's food and it's free, so what more does a penniless traveler need? We made great friends from other countries here, which was honestly the best part. People come to the main room and terraces to drink and socialize, so it is very easy to make new friends. If I'm ever back in Milan I will absolutely be staying here again. Can't say enough good things about Ostello Bello Grande!

This place is dope! I've spent years in the hospitality business and this was the BEST check in experience I have ever seen! We were greeted with a free drink of choice, given a tour of the place and told about the place from the Amazing staff! Very clean and an over all great experience!

Atmosphere: amazing. everyone is friendly and having a gr eat time. Easy to make friends. Staff: Very very nice people that give you answer all your questions and try to help you out as much as possible. Accessibility: 2 minute walk from central station and there's a bus that comes straight from Malpanesa airport. Food: Free dinner and breakfast. Lenient time slot (7~12/19~21). Breakfast doesn't taste too good though. (eggs are like plastic) Wifi: disconnects from time to time, but good overall Etc.: Laundry is expensive as shit (7 euros). There's a rooftop and basement to chill at. Lots of board games and game consoles. Foosball and small pool table. Piano and guitars on first floor. Rooms are nice to sleep in. Lock, pocket wifi, ipad, modem, laptop are all available to borrow. Bar is a bit expensive but the beer is good. Free water and coffee anytime.

Congratulations. Your search for a hostel in Milan is over! Just go ahead a reserve a bed/room right now because you're not gonna find a better deal than Ostello Bello. ;) Trust me, OB is the place to be but if you still need convincing, here's my testimony: My train from Venice was 2 hours delayed therefore causing me to miss my connection and stranding me in Milan for the night so I had to find a bed last minute. Ostello Bello to the rescue! It's mere steps from the Milano Centrale train station (and Metro and busses) and I was immediately welcomed with a cappuccino and nonstop smiles from the staff. This hostel is clean, comfortable and all-inclusive: free towels, linens, breakfast, dinner, snacks, great wifi, maps, advice... I only wish there was a little more space between bunk beds because it was too low for me to sit upright and I checked out today with a little knot on my head. Either that or start including free helmets at check-in. :P It's an eclectic mix of guests so just hope that you don't get put in a room with a couple of drunk douchebags who stumble in at 4AM and turn on all the lights. (Not blaming OB for this because it happens everywhere but it's still annoying.) You might enjoy the hostel more than the city itself. At least I did.

very kinda, great free pasta, sweet staff...

Great location; less than 10 minutes from Milano Central and taxi stand. Offers a buffet dinner between 7 and 9 pm. After initial check in, daily housekeeping was great.Histiric elevator but not more than 2 people with luggage at a time and copious stairs.

This place is nice and close to the train station. It is easy to get around everywhere. The service is great! The hotel offers free breakfast as well .

The new and bigger hostel from the same owners. They were opened 3 weeks ago when I visited them but still everything looked perfect to me. They like to chat with you like real Italians :) It might be a little pricy for a hostel but the place has a soul and you don't feel like you're in a hostel at all. Go there, stay there while you're in Milan and you will wish they would have Ostello Bello's all over the Europe.

Such a nice hostel! They give you a welcome drink when you check in, and the bar area is filled with people talking and GOOD music playing! Their breakfast was free and very good as well. Only stayed one night in Milan but wish I stayed more so I could stay here longer!

I was at the hostel for one night, truly the best hostel I ever stayed in. So organized, food is served, bar is open 24 hours. Amazing stuff and much much more! Highly recommend!
