Hotel Colleoni, Agrate Brianza
Ordinary business hotel located in Agrate Brianza, which is some kilometres outside Milano but not that far from the Monza F1 circuit.
The hotel has good regular rooms and in all 156 of them. The hotel reminded me of and business hotel without much charm at all. The breakfast was good - but I enjoyed the lunch at a little local restaurant much more.
Dont ask the reception for distance: We were having a meeting with an Italian company and we asked for direction and distance to their office. We were told that it was just around the corner. Therefore we took our luggage and walk in the direction that was given to us. After ½h walk in the 40 degrees baking sun, we gave up contacted a civilian and asked again. We were walking in the right derection but there were still 3 km to our goal.
We finally got hold of a taxi and arrived 25 minutes too late and all covered in sweat. The first 20 minutes of the meeting we didnt concentrate at all; we just drinking water like the camels at an oase in the desert:)
