What reviewers say

Visitors frequently praise the friendly and helpful staff, as well as the well-designed and social common areas like the terrace and garden with ping pong. However, a common complaint is the lack of effective air conditioning in the rooms, with some finding them too cold and others too warm, impacting sleep.

About this place Ostello Bello Grande

Ostello Bello Grande is a large mainstream hostel on Via Roberto Lepetit, right beside Milano Centrale station. It is listed as gay-friendly, not as a gay venue. It offers dorm beds and private rooms, and its busy common areas make it one of Milan's more social places to stay. Google rates it 4.6 from over 4,600 reviews. The station location makes arrivals and day trips easy. Porta Venezia, Milan's main gay area with the bars on Via Lecco, is about a 15-minute walk or two metro stops away. Expect a young backpacker crowd and some noise in the shared spaces.

Great staff and rooms. I stayed here the night before an early flight to be next to the station but sadly didn’t get any sleep due to the loud yelling Italian men outside the building all night long.

Very nice and well-furnished hostel. I really liked the outdoor garden because it has lots of tables in the shade (which is always nice in the summer) and also the fact that they have a ping pong table. The only thing is that the bartender (I think his name was Jacopo) made the wrong drink for me.

I stayed in a 6 bed dorm room . It was fairly basic but for the price was reasonable value. The hostel has so much going for it - all the social areas are fantastic - beautiful terrace/ seating areas, etc , great vibe. could so easily have been 5 stars . Unfortunately it was let down by a lack of air conditioning in the room. AC was clearly advertised on their website but in my room the AC would only turn on for 2 minutes then turn back off and the timer settings were locked with a password. I raised this issue 3 times with the staff at the front desk but nothing was done and one staff member said ' it was because of the government' which was comical as other people had working A/C, One night it was so warm I felt like I was sleeping on an oven and it was completely unbearable. The mini light by my bed also did not work. I would happily stay here again in the cooler months as I did like the hostel otherwise, and the location is perfect for being right by the station. I would not risk staying in summer as I cannot trust the A/C.

It's a hostel that organizes various activities, with an average age of 30 or under. Nice for listening to live music.
