AN IDEAL BASE FOR EXPLORING MILAN
Walk just 200 metres from this handy hotel and you arrive right at the Sesto Marelli Metro Station. Just think: you could hop on a Metro and be standing outside the iconic Milan Cathedral in a mere 15 minutes.
An incredible architectural achievement, this gothic cathedral is one of the largest churches in the world and can hold over 40,000 people. Put simply: it’s massive, so make sure you put at least a couple of hours aside to admire its splendour and extensive collection of religious art.
This area isn’t just known for its architecture, however. Cathedral Square is all about the shopping and attracts tourists far and wide thanks to its decadent mix of luxury fashion boutiques, high-end department stores, and upper-class eateries. Café life’s a big deal around here and gives you the ideal opportunity to grab a coffee after hours spent checking out the latest fashions.
For a change of pace, grab a taxi and take the 10-minute drive to North Milan Park. There you’ll find over 850 acres of dense woodland, tiny streams, and natural beauty – untouched by Milan’s urban sprawl. Make sure to follow one of the many nature trails scattered around the park, immersing yourself in the colours and serene ambience with every step you take.
Feeling hungry? No one does iconic cuisine quite like the Italians. And you’ll find amazing restaurants serving up the tastiest dishes everywhere. While here, you must try Risotto alla Milanese – a creamy rice dish made with saffron to create its signature yellow colour. Eat with plenty of parmesan cheese for a true taste of Italy you won’t forget in a hurry.
Back at the hotel, expect a cosy room with memory mattress and unlimited Wi-Fi, plus a breakfast buffet with a wide range of dishes to help set you up for the day ahead. Everything you need for a pleasant stay near this most stylish of Italian cities.
