The hotel/guesthouse is easily reached from the centre of Milan by metro followed by a short walk (past a nice bakery). Il Girasole looks unconventional, being a converted factory building. A nice courtyard is hidden behind a metal entrance door. Matteo and his brother are extremely nice hosts, who can provide enthusiastic advice on sightseeing in Milan.
Our room was one of the two behind the courtyard which, unfortunately, the WiFi signal from the main building didn't reach - but was fine if you sat outside near reception/breakfast room.
Room was clean and comfortable and spacious enough for chairs and a table. Bed was too firm for me (not my wife) so just luck of the draw.
No tea/coffee making facilities per the property description, but also no glass for a drink of water (complimentary bottle of water for the first night).
Nice breakfast: tea or coffee, a glass of fruit juice, a croissant and a salami and/or cheese roll.

This is a really nice place, run by two brothers who are charming, kind and filled with good energy. The place is not easy to find if you are using public transport: look for the image of a sunflower on the building, it does make it easier to spot. Also you may wish to ask for rooms facing the inner courtyard and not the street; not because of noise (the streets are quiet), but because the building across the street keeps its light on at night, and that can be disturbing for sleep. The area is very nice and they were kind enough to direct me to the nearby canal, ideal for jogging.

I stayed at this hotel more than a year ago, so my memories are not too clear. I do recall that the bathroom was clean and very nice. There were three of us, and we had enough room to move around and set out our bags, etc.
The dining room/reception area is loaded with materials about the city. The hosts were very helpful and answered all our questions. The location was a little bit "out of the way", but as it is only about 7 minutes from the Metro station, not a big problem.

A small and beautiful hotel close to the metro in a quiet neighborhood. Hotel staff are very welcoming and helpful. We were given a good explanation of Milan and were best to eat and shop along places to visit within our stay. Large rooms. Good wifi and parking is available inside the hotel at a cost which is highly recommended since the parking spaces in the vicinity are all blue parking spaces (need to pay for the time parked). Breakfast selection is moderate but everything especially the bread, pastries and cakes are all freshly baked in the morning... what a nice smell to wake up to.

We had a wonderful stay at Il Girasole. Nicola was wonderful. We had a very limited stay in the city, but he took the time to orient us, provide some handy tips, and made us feel right at home. The rooms were spacious and comfortable enough. The breakfast provided in the morning was delicious and got us going in the morning.

Il Girasole is a hidden gem. The hotel itself is charming with wonderful touches, the service is top notch and Matteo and Nicola are very welcoming and helpful. The hotel is footsteps from a Metro stop which can get you to the Milan Malpensa airport, Milan Centrale train station and many other parts of Milan. If II'm ever back in Milan, I will be staying there again.

First of all it was a pleasant enough hotel located in a questionable neighborhood. The room were small with uncomfortable furnishings. The proprietors were very friendly, almost to the point of hoping you would look over the fact that the room was unsatisfactory.

Matteo, the proprietor, overflows with energy and helpfulness and good humour. Nothing is too much trouble. The hotel.is a little way out, but there's a nearby tube station and the all day tickets (which Matteo, thank goodness, sells) are very good value. The car is nice and safe in his courtyard. Breakfast is enjoyable, with smiley coffee, quirky radiogram, sunflower objets, and a weird collection of fish (his brother's)! Room clean, comfortable, quiet. Home from home really.

First and foremost STAY HERE. I have never had a hotel email me personally before my stay to check on how I want the bedrooms arranged! The service just got better when we arrived. Matteo was the very best host and incredibly helpful and friendly - it was like staying with friends!! The hotel itself is in a residential area and you could easily miss it, but it is only 200m from the Metro and 15 minutes to Duomo so no problem there. The hotel is quirky but very nice - if you want 5* luxury this won't be right but if you want a really friendly place to stay in Milan it gets it's own 5 stars!

We stayed only overnight, on route to the Malpensa alrport. A bit of a schlep from the main train route to the airport, but once we found the hotel it was very nice. Very helpful and friendly staff sent us to a nice neighborhood pizzaria. Room was clean and adequate for our overnight needs. Decor was upbeat. They accommodated us with an early breakfast.
