Luggage storage at Porta Genova station

Arriving at Porta Genova with hours to spare or a bag after checkout, you'll need a place to leave it before exploring Milan's Navigli. Stasher connects you with trusted shops and hotels nearby.

Most of the places near the station won't accept it: Palazzo Reale Milano refuses suitcases outright, and both Milano Cadorna and San Babila stations have no storage desk of their own, so you'll need a plan for your bag before you set off. Since the railway station stopped serving as a train terminal on December 13, 2025, the Porta Genova name now refers only to the metro stop and the surrounding area. The station is served by the M2 metro line, with trains running from about 05:30 to 00:30. Porta Genova lies within Milan's Zone 6 administrative division. With Stasher, you can store bags from €1.49 per bag per day at 10+ locations near Porta Genova.

Getting around from Porta Genova with luggage

Tram lines 2 and 9 stop at Porta Genova, which is useful for moving luggage across the city without relying on the metro. Bear in mind that Porta Genova offers no direct onward rail connections to destinations like Genova or Torino, so you'll need at least one change for intercity travel.

If you're heading to Malpensa Airport, the Malpensa Express runs directly from Milano Cadorna with a journey time of about 37 to 38 minutes. Cadorna station itself has no left-luggage desk or lockers run by the station authority, so don't count on leaving a bag there before the express.

San Babila, an interchange between the M1 and M4 lines serving the neighbourhood of the same name, also has no official luggage storage or cloakroom within the station. Walking from Porta Genova to Piazza del Duomo takes around 2.2 to 3 kilometres, so with bags in tow it's worth thinking through that distance rather than treating it as a quick stroll.

Nearby sights and their bag rules

The MUDEC museum sits about 10 minutes on foot from Porta Genova M2, while the Darsena marina is 800 metres away and the Navigli district begins just a five-minute walk from the station, all of which are much easier to visit without a suitcase in tow. Palazzo Reale Milano, open Tuesday to Sunday from 10:00 to 19:30 and until 22:30 on Thursdays, has a strict luggage policy: suitcases and bulky baggage cannot come inside at all. The cloakroom there, available on every floor, will hold helmets, backpacks, bulky bags and umbrellas, though scooters and folding bicycles are not accepted. The Duomo di Milano is generally open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., with last admission typically 30 to 60 minutes before closing, so plan your bag storage around that window if you're visiting.
