Luxury Hotels in Milan
Italy
Discover the Best
Milan is the city where fashion and design meet hospitality of the highest order. In the shadow of the Duomo, along the Quadrilatero della Moda and in the elegant districts of Brera and Porta Nuova, you will find hotels that have quietly redefined what luxury means. Think historic palazzi transformed into discreet city retreats, suites with private terraces above the rooftops, and spa facilities that make the pace of the city feel very far away indeed. Service is seamless and personal, the dining is world-class, and the attention to detail is as precise as a bespoke suit. Our selection brings together properties where standards are never compromised, the location is impeccable and every moment feels considered.

Our Selection Criteria
Ratings and standards Our selection focuses on a demonstrable five-star standard and internationally recognised quality credentials. We prioritise hotels that deliver consistently excellent guest review scores – typically around 9.0 out of 10 or above – and show a sustained record of excellence over time.
Distinguishing features We give extra credit to properties with genuine character: historic palazzi with inner courtyards, rooftop bars or pools, signature spas with premium treatments, suites with private terraces, and restaurants with well-regarded kitchen teams. A strong design identity and carefully chosen art also count for a good deal.
Location and surroundings We look for settings that combine exclusivity with practicality: within or immediately adjacent to the fashion district, close to the Duomo and La Scala, or in Brera. Good connections to Linate and Malpensa, and an easy walk to shops, cultural attractions and business districts, are all important.
Frequently Asked Questions
The Quadrilatero della Moda, Brera and the streets around the Duomo and La Scala put you within easy reach of shopping, culture and restaurants, all in a discreet and safe setting.
Certainly. Many properties offer children's menus, extra beds, interconnecting rooms and welcome amenities for younger guests. It is worth mentioning ages and any specific requirements at the time of booking.
A full spa with a pool, sauna or steam room and premium treatments is standard at this level, along with a well-equipped gym. Booking spa appointments in advance is advisable.
Rooftop terraces and bars are fairly common; pools tend to be indoors. A handful of hotels offer a rooftop pool or private jacuzzis in their suites.
A private transfer arranged through the hotel is the most comfortable option. Linate is the closer airport; Malpensa takes a little longer. Trains and taxis are perfectly good alternatives, though during busy periods it is worth booking ahead.
For the most sought-after hotels and room categories, aiming for four to six months ahead is no bad thing. April and September in particular see strong demand, so the earlier you can book during those months, the better.
