5 hand-picked hotels in Milan

Grand Visconti Palace Hotel Milan

The Grand Visconti Palace was built over the ruins of the Verga Mill, which goes back to the early twentieth century, and has managed to transform the formerly industrial grounds into something delicate and magnificent. The look within the hotel is unmistakably traditional. There are polished marble flooring, heavy draperies, antique furniture with gilded accents, and a magnificent oak front desk, and couches and chairs are strategically placed throughout the room for guests to rest. The hotel attracts both pleasure and business tourists, who congregate for breakfast in the hotel's classic dining room, where buffet items are laid out on white linen-lined tables. This hotel is proud of its enormous garden, which features planted hedges, stone terraces, and a fountain and creates a relaxing environment. The environment reflects the fact that this isn't one of Milan's most central hotels, with enough on-site amenities to keep tourists entertained for at least an afternoon. When it comes to the rooms of the Grand Visconti Palace, they have two personalities: some are trendy and modern, while others are outfitted in the more traditional and slightly antiquated manner that plagues many ancient Italian hotels. Elegant upholstered headboards complement bold designs and on-trend dark hues in modern rooms, while attractive wallpaper in bold patterns and on-trend dark colors compliments bed runners. These rooms contain crisp wood laminate or parquet floors, as well as substantial wooden furniture with nicely placed antique lines. After that, there are the classic rooms. It's not that these rooms aren't nice, but they feel old in comparison to the more modern suites and are a bit of a letdown. Heavy floor-to-ceiling drapes, wall-to-wall carpeting with area rugs, and gold-embellished wallpaper adorn these spaces. Some of the rooms feature views of the garden.

Baglioni Hotel Carlton

The Baglioni Hotel Carlton is largely disguised from the outside by lush, maintained hedges, lending an impression of exclusivity to this luxurious resort. The lobby exudes elegance. It's decorated with plush leather couches and gilt frames for oil paintings. Vintage Hollywood starlets such as Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn are featured in photos that lend an unexpected flash of Hollywood beauty. The public areas of the hotel offer a similarly elegant and sophisticated vibe. The quaint restaurant is decorated in the form of an English clubhouse, complete with a wooden bar and brown leather and wooden seats; males should dress appropriately for the occasion. The hotel's cafe, where guests can dine in a terrace room on velvet purple chairs under sparkling modern chandelier lighting, provides an even more premium ambiance. At the Baglioni, fresh flower centerpieces bring color and are a fresh and stylish splash. Guests are a mix of wealthy business and leisure travelers, with an affluent local clientele at the fine-dining restaurant, Baretto al Baglioni. The rooms at Baglioni Hotel Milan are designed with luxury and elegance in mind. The most affordable rooms may appear small, but they are larger than many entry-level rooms in Milan, at 20 square meters (215 square feet). The majority of the rooms are classically designed with heavy drapery, hardwood flooring, and wall moldings in green and gold tones. Overhead chandeliers provide a refined touch, while contemporary elements like sparkly wallpaper placed into wainscoting add a pop of color. Runners and colorful pillows are used to dress up the beds. A minibar, flat-screen TV with over 60 channels, air conditioning, and free Wi-Fi are among the amenities.

Hotel Manin Milan

The Manin Hotel is centrally located in Milan, near La Scala Theatre, the "Duomo di Milano," the Fashion Quadrilateral, and Sforza Castle, with a superb panoramic view of the city's most beautiful park. The Manin, a four-star hotel with a century of history, is one of Milan's most popular historic hotels, recognized for its comfort and tranquillity. It is directly across from the Indro Montanelli public gardens. The greatest of Italian art and fashion, including via Spiga, via Manzoni, and via Montenapoleone, the famed Milan shopping district with all the fashion houses of the most famous Italian designers, is just steps away from our doors. Since 1904, Colombo's family has privately owned and maintained Hotel Manin Milan. The 124 rooms, including seven junior suites and one suite, are furnished with all of the amenities of a four-star hotel, including air conditioning, a 43-inch LCD satellite TV, and free Wi-Fi Internet access throughout the hotel. For professional business meetings in Milan's historic center, the hotel also features four well-equipped conference rooms with complimentary Wi-Fi, projectors, microphones, and overhead projectors. The hotel also has the Manin Garden, which is its pride and joy, as well as the Restaurant, which serves traditional regional, Italian, and worldwide food.

Room Mate Giulia Milan

This elegant and stylish boutique design hotel from the international Room Mate company is housed in a magnificent 19th-century building. The interiors have a fashionable design that combines modern and retro elements, with pops of color, art, eccentric details, and stylish furniture for a hip and slightly odd look. Cool and colorful contemporary seating is matched with an exquisite collision of textures and patterns, including multi-hued rugs and stone, brick, and wooden wall decorations, which wrap around the lobby's walls. The breakfast area has a more modest aesthetic, yet it's just as modern and stylish. Leisure visitors, primarily young couples and those with a flair for design, make up the majority of the clientele, however business travelers, particularly those in creative areas, are also welcome. The rooms are decorated in a fashionable retro-inspired style that is both hip and eccentric. The color choices for the various accommodation classifications, which include Standard, Superior, Deluxe, and Junior Suites, vary slightly and range from blackboard green hues punctuated by flashes of red to dusty blues combined with mustard and orange tones. Colored wall paneling complements the plush headboards, and grid-patterned wallpaper covers the ceilings. Colorful lighting, retro chairs, industrial-style wardrobe/shelving units, and art/illustration prints on the walls give the rooms even more personality and flair. Room Mate Giulia is located in a handy central location, just around the corner from the Duomo, the city's main focal point. There are numerous restaurants and pubs nearby, as well as plenty of shopping opportunities, including the spectacular Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, the world's oldest retail mall, which is directly across the street from the hotel.

INNperfect Room Duomo Milan

INNperfect Room Duomo is made up of two apartments in Milan's historic center, at number 20 Cesare Correnti street, less than a kilometer from Milan's Duomo and the same distance from the Navigli district. The first apartment is made up of three bright, colorful rooms with the option of twin or double beds. The apartment includes a bathroom (which is shared by the three rooms) and a fully equipped kitchen. The second apartment consists of a three-person room with a private bathroom (with the option of twin beds or one double bed). The rooms can be booked individually or as a whole apartment.
