The Aethos Milano is a bit of a hidden gem, somewhat removed from the tourist jumble around the Duomo and Galleria. It sits on a busy thoroughfare and is almost invisible from the street if not for the small name on the awning.
Once inside, it's a maze of interestingly-decorated lounge and restaurant spaces, which one must navigate to reach the elevator to your room.
The hotel staff was outstanding in every regard, with a special shout-out to the helpful ladies at the front desk and the friendly servers at the breakfast venue. (BTW, the daily breakfast included with the room was excellent.)
We stayed in a Junior Suite, which was really nothing more than a slightly oversized room with a large outdoor terrace. The room was very clean, comfortable and well-appointed. The outdoor area was nice but afforded you almost no privacy from your neighbors save for a few strategically-placed plants.
All in all, we had an enjoyable stay, but a word of caution: Take a quick look at the hotel's website and social media feed. It will give you a clear understanding of the demographic to which they try to cater—the young and/or trendy. Are you the type who enjoys a DJ spinning tunes at Sunday brunch? Do you expect your hotel to be "Instagrammable"? Do you prefer a quiet-night's sleep or a party scene? Not to judge, but these are all things to consider before booking here.
