Internationally known as “a shopping paradise” or “the city of glamour”, Milan offers a series of tourist attractions that make it one of the most visited destinations in the transalpine country. Here luxury stores and large commercial firms meet each other closely and allow you an insight into the most chic and avant-garde Milanese culture.

Today arrival at the airport or the train station in Milan is on your own. Our overnight location is very close to the station and you can get there easily from any international airport.

You can check-in from 3:00 pm. An early arrival will give you the freedom to relax, take the time to settle in the rooms and rest. In the afternoon we will take time to adjust and test the bicycles.
