When you check into any DoubleTree in the world you get a welcome cookie.  To receive your welcome cookie is part of the fun of checking in.  Being in Milan I half expected some gelato but I’m glad they’ve got the cookie tradition here too.  The staff speak perfect English and are very friendly.  If you have any queries about your plans in the city they will be keen to help.

The choice at the buffet breakfast is what you’d expect from a DoubleTree.  You’ll find a large selection of pastries, hot and cold meats, cereals, salad, fruits, juices, milk, water and hot drinks.  Something I’ve not seen at breakfast before are roast potatoes.  They were like British pub chips and absolutely delicious.  If you like to eat outside you can take your breakfast to the outdoor patio (below).  There are lots of waitresses who are quick to assist you with your breakfast.

Later in the day you may order lunch and dinner a la carte.  It’s also possible to organize your lunch and dinner as part of your conference.
