Lonely Planet "Too cool for anything much, let alone school, this ultra-designer address is a shout from the Duomo." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Students of contemporary design especially love the industrial cool zeitgeist of this hotel less than a block from the duomo." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Behind the 1883 Neo-Classic façade, the Straf has an ultra-modern interior. Luxurious natural materials set the minimal design tone."

Michelin Guide "Innovative hotel is housed in an austere building."
Concierge "Discretion, calm, and privacy are the key concepts in a design scheme that nods winsomely, but never brazenly, at the building's 1930s origins."
Star Service "Opened just three years ago, this top-tier player is one of three fashion-pedigreed properties in what is perhaps the most fashion-conscious city in the world." Full review
BlackBook "Crafting the simple elegance of the clothing brand into an experience, the Hotel is outfitted with Asia-imported limestone bathroom floors and walls."
