Hotel Ascot

Two kilometres north of Milan's city ring road on the Strada Statale dei Giovi — the old route toward Como — Hotel Ascot is a three-star roadside property that suits drivers transiting between the city and Lombardy's lake district, or business travellers needing parking without central-Milan rates.

Rooms include air conditioning, flat-screen TV, private bathroom, and in-room safe. Breakfast can be delivered to the room, and the on-site bar and coffee house handle light meals throughout the day. A golf course sits within two miles, and hypoallergenic rooms are available on request.

Check-in opens at 14:00 with contactless and express options staffed around the clock. Baggage storage and fax facilities make the property functional for longer working stays.
