Milan’s fashion quarter, the Quadrilatero della Moda, is just a short stroll from the Duomo. Here you’ll find boutiques showcasing the hottest local designers and plenty of upmarket cafés, while just next door is the Porta Venezia district, home to some of Milan’s best LGBT-friendly nightlife.

The top floor of the hotel is home to the Felix Lo Basso restaurant, which opens onto a lovely terrace and offers refined Italian cuisine by Michelin-starred chef Felice Lo Basso.

The Duomo
Milan’s iconic cathedral took over 600 years to complete, and is the fifth largest Christian church in the world. While the interior is impressive, it is the outside of the building that is truly spectacular, adorned with over 4,000 statues, gargoyles and sculptures. The best way to appreciate the incredible craftsmanship is from the rooftop, accessible by lift or a spiral staircase. Up here you’re surrounded by a forest of saints and bishops, with magnificent views of Milan’s skyline, both ancient and modern.
