Milan · The Penthouse Pick guide
Fashion, opera and the Duomo on your doorstep. These are the Milan hotels we'd book for shopping weekends and fashion weeks alike.
Penthouse Pick is reader-supported. If you book through a link on this page, we may earn a commission from Booking.com. It never changes the price you pay. Prices and availability are set by Booking.com and change daily.
Via Tommaso Grossi · by the Galleria
Park Hyatt Milan sits right beside the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, a few steps from Piazza del Duomo.
It's set in a handsome 19th-century building, with calm, modern rooms. You couldn't be more central.
Via Manzoni · Fashion Quarter
Every detail of the Armani Hotel was designed by Giorgio Armani himself, from the furniture to the colour palette.
It sits on the edge of the Quadrilatero della Moda, Milan's fashion district, and the spa on the top floors looks out over the rooftops.
Brera · next to the Botanical Garden
The Bulgari is tucked down a quiet lane in Brera, with a private garden that runs alongside the city's botanical garden.
It's a favourite for fashion-week crowds, and its garden bar is one of Milan's chicest places for an aperitivo.
Via Gesù · Fashion Quarter
The Four Seasons is set in a 15th-century former convent, built around a peaceful cloister.
Original frescoes and vaulted ceilings sit alongside classic Four Seasons service, right in the middle of the fashion district.
Via Andegari · near La Scala
Mandarin Oriental, Milan joins four 18th-century buildings into one discreet hotel a short walk from La Scala.
Its spa is one of the best in the city, and the courtyard bar is a favourite for a pre-dinner drink.
Via Manzoni · near La Scala
The Grand Hotel et de Milan has welcomed guests since the 1860s. Giuseppe Verdi lived here for many years, and his suite can still be booked.
It's a short walk from La Scala and full of old-world charm: antiques, velvet and a real sense of Milan's history.
