Terminal 1 to the left, Terminal 2 to the right. Closer to your flight, and you’d be on the tarmac.

Free WiFi: you gotta have it, so they bring it.

Super easy to get around: Linate Airport is 20 minutes away, the Sesto San Giovanni train station is a ten-minute walk and there’s a bus stop across the street.

You know what’s nice to wake up to? Free breakfast, that’s what.

Funky furniture in the lobby gives the place a cool, quirky vibe.

Hit all the local biggies, and keep your peepers open for Clooney sightings(!).
