About

V12 Design Apartments

V12 Design Apartments sits on Via Varese 12, about a 10-minute walk from Moscova tube station and 1.3 km from Sempione Park. The building houses a small collection of lofts with a clean, contemporary look — parquet floors, sitting areas, and kitchenettes with an electric kettle, cookware, and a washing machine.

Guests consistently point to the location as the standout feature: close to the bars and restaurants of Corso Garibaldi, the Brera district, and the up-and-coming Isola area, with the M2 metro line nearby for exploring the rest of Milan. The self-serve check-in and the responsiveness of the host, Zoran, also come up again and again in reviews.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Exceptional location for exploring Milan — Guests consistently mention the easy walk to Moscova tube station, the M2 metro line, and the bars and restaurants of Corso Garibaldi and Brera.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small, focused room selection — The property offers a limited number of lofts (only one room type is listed), which may not suit larger groups or families.
  • No on-site parking mentioned — Parking is not listed among the amenities, so guests arriving by car will need to find public parking or use public transport.
  • No pets allowed — Travellers with pets will need to look elsewhere, as the policy explicitly prohibits pets.
  • Mixed reviews on value and general experience — While many guests rate the property highly, some reviews are more moderate, with ratings around 5–7 out of 10, which may reflect occasional inconsistencies.

The bottom line

If you want a base in the heart of Milan's creative quarter — with design flair, kitchenette convenience, and a host who goes out of his way — V12 Design Apartments delivers. It's not a full-service hotel, and the room selection is small, but for independent travellers exploring Brera, Isola, and the city on foot, it's a strong, honest pick.

8.1A design-forward, self-catering stay in one of Milan's most walkable neighborhoods.
