Overview
Hotel Straf is a contemporary hotel of unconventional, intellectual design, in the heart of Milan.
The entrance to Straf's minimalist beige, black and gold lobby is through two sets of 12ft-tall glass doors. Dating back to the 1880's, this old palazzo was bought by brother and sister Daniela and Gerardo Bertazzoni in 2000 and turned into a Designer Hotel. There's lots of concrete, the floor is polished, the walls are coated. Black burnished-steel panels are prevalent and adorn opposite sides of the lobby's square columns.
There are 66 rooms and suites, either with a light or dark colour scheme. Lighter rooms have concrete floors and walls in the bedroom, and brass in the bathroom. Aged mirrors overlook the bath or shower. Darker rooms have shiny black, textured slate floors. Bathroom walls are gun-metal burnished steel. Each bedroom features a vast canvas board plastered with burnt orange or Granny Smith-green stucco. Mirrored walls add light and a sense of space.

Weekend in Milano
 | | Overall rating: |  | Value rating : |  |
We stayed for a weekend and enjoyed the location very close to the Doumo etc. We had a quite spacious suite with 2 terraces. Everything clean and in order. The staff was excellent and contributed with very good recommendations. The bar at Straff is very lively and popular. -Pernille Reuter, from Copenhagen, Denmark - 10/29/2009
Loved the Locatiion

It is quite a unique hotel located a great Location. It was exactly where we wanted it to be. The bed was very comfy...the only problem was the Internet. For such a modern unique hotel, one would think that the Internet would have been wireless. -Lisa Beckwith , from SCOTTSDALE, United States - 10/12/2009
Uber Cool Hotel in Excellent Location
 | | Overall rating: |  | Value rating : |  |
The Straf is an ultra cool hotel and perfectly located less than 1 block from both Milan's Duomo and the Galleria (and conveniently right across the road from La Rinascente dept store (with its fabulous 7th floor food court overlooking the Duomo)). The room was totally modern, clean, spacious and comfortable. The massage chair in the room was an absolute bonus and fantastic relief after a few weeks of traveling. Breakfast was great. The only let down - and its a small one - were the toiletries (not a name brand). The aperitif hour at Bar Straf is awesome value (great complimentary buffet of substantial nibbles with your cocktails) and is great for people watching! -Sonia, from Sydney, Australia - 9/30/2009

Highly Recommended

The staff was AMAZING, it was centrally located and complimentary breakfast was fantastic. That said, WiFi was not free; the shower could've been more convenient and the room a little more vibrant... -Mary Arutyunyan , from Washington, United States - 8/12/2009
Intelligent and Gracious staff
 | | Overall rating: |  | Value rating : |  |
Hotel has excellent design features, with bathrooms that work and a thoughtfully provided massage chair that did an excellent job of relieving aching muscles. Food was fresh and innovative. However the staff remain its outstanding quality, all spoke perfect English and were always helpful and warm. Grazie! -L, from Australia, Australia - 10/21/2008
