About

Gloria Hostel Milano

Gloria Hostel Milano is a 30-room hostel on Via Tommaso Gulli, about a 5-minute walk from the Mandala and a short drive from the San Siro Ippodromo tube station. It keeps things simple: free Wi-Fi throughout, a shared kitchen for cooking, and a choice of shared dormitories.

The focus here is practical comfort rather than frills. Dorms come with individual lamps and plugs at each bed, and the 6-bed rooms include air conditioning and heating. Staff are available around the clock, and express check-in and check-out are offered for guests in a hurry.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Staff consistently praised — Guests repeatedly mention the reception team — especially Ahmed — as friendly, helpful and available around the clock.
  • Unbeatable for San Siro events — A 5-minute walk to the Mandala and a short hop from the San Siro Ippodromo metro make it a natural base for concerts and matches at the stadium.
  • Clean and well-equipped dorms — Individual lamps and plugs at each bed, air conditioning in 6-bed rooms, and clean shared or en-suite bathrooms come up again and again.
  • Free Wi-Fi that works — Unlike many budget stays, reviewers report the Wi-Fi being fast and reliable throughout their stay.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Mixed experiences on room quality — While many guests find dorms clean and comfortable, the 7.6 room rating sits slightly below the overall stay rating, suggesting some inconsistency.
  • Modest overall rating — At 7.5 from over 2,500 reviews, this is a solid budget option rather than a standout — the area average in Milan is 8.4.
  • No pets and no private rooms — Only shared dormitories (6 or 8-bed) are available, and pets aren't allowed. If you want a private space or to travel with an animal, this won't work.
  • Check-out is early — With check-out at 10:00, you'll need to be up and out before late morning — worth noting for anyone planning a lie-in after a late San Siro show.

“I stayed a few nights for a concert at San Siro. Perfect location, a short walk to both the metro and the stadium. The staff, especially Ahmed, were incredibly friendly and helpful. The hostel was clean and calm, with comfortable beds, a hot shower and spacious lockers. The free Wi-Fi worked without a hitch.”

Getting around Milan

The property sits in Milan.

San Siro Stadium: The biggest draw — a short walk to the metro and a brief hop from the stadium itself. Several guests stayed specifically for concerts and matches here.

Metro Link: The San Siro Ippodromo tube station is about 5 minutes on foot, giving easy access to the rest of Milan. Reviewers found it convenient for city exploration.

Everyday Essentials: A supermarket and a 24-hour store are both nearby, and the neighbourhood has a good spread of cafes and restaurants mentioned in multiple reviews.
