Michelin Guide "One of the most stylish and elegant in the city."
Concierge "The net result is playfully chic rather than chaotic, so it's no surprise the Gray kicked off the Milanese trend for high-concept design-centric hotels."
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"This is a hotel designed with a sense of playfulness, which is more than you can say for the decidedly 'cool' staff." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Design students can take several lessons at this unique boutique hotel by Florentine architect Guido Ciompi just north of the duomo." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Each room at The Gray has completely different decor, layout and focus, such as split levels, fitness facilities or a steam room."
Time Out "Despite the name (chosen by architect Guido Ciompi), little is half-tone here: the dominant colour scheme backs neutral colours with splashes of electrifying vibrancy." Full review
BlackBook "Many of the new designer-backed hotels attempt to reclaim the torch in the race for frontrunner of Milanese modernism, but few can surpass The Gray."
Afar Magazine "Just steps from Milan’s world-famous Duomo, the Gray offers 21 rooms designed by Guido Ciompi, the man behind Gucci boutiques worldwide." Full review
Mr & Mrs Smith "With minimal style and a smack-in-the-center location, the Gray hotel is a glossy Milan bolthole near the Duomo, La Scala and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele." Full review
Star Service "Located 70 meters from the daunting Duomo, on the same tiny, evocative street as the full-sized Grand Hotel Duomo, this property is one of the best design hotels in the city." Full review

Afar Magazine "Everybody in Milan loves Ostello Bello—hipster chic, centrally located and inexpensive, but definitely not your chintzy hostel." Full review
Independent "Central yet squeezed into a quiet side street, Ostello Bello is a funky hostel that resembles a comfortable version of a flea market"
