Best Western Air Hotel Linate

The location is perfect, the staff were wonderful, and there's even a shuttle if you don't want to walk. Everyone was polite and helpful, and the reception guys seemed genuinely sorry about the noise. They offered us breakfast and clearly meant well. Still, Friday and Saturday nights are a problem if you can't sleep through loud music or use earplugs. The club next door plays music until 4 at night. I found earplugs in the bathroom, and they were the only way I got a few hours' sleep, though I found them uncomfortable since I'm not used to wearing them. Something needs to change, perhaps the council could limit the club noise, or the hotel could add enough soundproofing, though I'm not sure that would work with music this loud. I didn't notice the other negatives mentioned by reviewers, but be prepared to sleep with earplugs.

My family and I enjoyed our stay and would come back. There are a few shops and restaurants within walking distance, and the hotel restaurant and breakfast were both good. The shuttle takes about five minutes to reach the airport and can also drop you at the metro. Every staff member we met was friendly. The walls are a little thin but tolerable, and I didn't hear many planes at night. Earplugs are available for anyone who needs them. One thing to know if you're traveling with younger children: the rooms don't connect.

I left the hotel at 6:01 with an empty stomach. I needed to catch the 6 am shuttle to make my flight, but even though the breakfast restaurant was opening at 6, they wouldn't give me my takeaway breakfast. They seemed to think having 30 seconds to eat it was enough. The front desk man said he was just following management's rules. I've never seen a hotel so inflexible or lacking in understanding, especially for the price and location.

A solid, practical option if you need to be near LIN. The rooms are spacious and well equipped, with everything you need, though nothing fancy. The terminal is a 10 to 15 minute walk, and the Metro line M4 ends at the airport terminal, making this a handy starting point for exploring the city.
