Location

Address
Rocco Forte House Milan
Via Manzoni 46
Milan
20121
Italy

Rocco Forte House Milan sits in a 19th-century palazzo along Via Manzoni, in the central shopping neighbourhood of Quadrilatero della Moda.

Planes

Most European hubs have direct flights to Linate Airport, which is a 25-minute drive away and the hotel’s closest. Malpensa and Bergamo Orio al Serio also serve Milan, but are both a slightly further 50-minute drive. Private Mercedes transfers can be arranged from Linate for €130 and from Malpensa for €210, each way.

Trains

Milano Centrale is just under 10 minutes away by car (transfers can be arranged for an extra charge) and has direct routes around the country, as well as links to Zurich, Zermatt, Lugano and Monaco.

Automobiles

You won’t need a car in Milan, but if you’re taking your own wheels to explore beyond the city, the hotel offers free valet parking.

Worth getting out of bed for

Get your wallets at the ready, Quadrilatero della Moda — the city’s storied square — and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele arcade are on your doorstep, and Versace, Dolce & Gabbana, Valentino and Prada are your designer neighbours. Balance your buying with forays to explore couture’s cultural side at the Fondazione Prada and Spazio Rossana Orlandi. 

If you’re here for Milan’s classic sights, walk down Via Manzoni and through the Roman Porta Nuova to reach Piazza della Scala; book tickets for an opera at Teatro alla Scala, or simply marvel its old-age architecture from outside. Piazza del Duomo and Piazza San Babila are also within mooching distance, and the Basilica of Sant’Ambrogio is worth a visit for its fourth-century roots and solid gold altar. Oenophiles may want to dedicate a day to Lombardy, less than an hour’s drive from the hotel and loved for its rolling vineyards and wineries. 

Local restaurants

Set on the top floor of the Fondazione Luigi Rovat, award-winning Andrea Aprea draws the crowds not only for its Murano chandeliers and Bucchero ceramics, but plates of elevated Italian classics (lobster pasta comes topped with grated frozen apple) and panoramic cityscapes. South Tyrolean fare takes centre stage at Horto, a fine-dining restaurant steps from the duomo, and Paper Moon Giardino serves its seafood-focused plates under restored fresco ceilings in a 200-year-old palazzo.

Local cafés

Things don’t get more Milanese than sampling panettone and sipping espresso in an 18th-century palazzo — and thankfully, Marchesi 1824 offers just that. If you’re near the Teatro alla Scala, stop by Sant Ambroeus for freshly baked croissants, pain au chocolats and palmiers.

Local bars

Pavé turns from bakery to bar come happy hour, when counters fill with classic concoctions, perfectly poured pints and fine wines. Indulge yourself, cocktail in hand, in one of Ceresio 7’s vintage leather booths or out on the pool-lined terrace as the sun sets over striking city views.

Anonymous review

By Mr & Mrs Smith

Every hotel featured is visited personally by members of our team, given the Smith seal of approval, and then anonymously reviewed. As soon as our reviewers have returned from this fashion-forward bolthole on Via Manzoni and unpacked their Dolce & Gabbana goods, a full account of their stylish city break will be with you. In the meantime, to whet your wanderlust, here's a quick peek inside Rocco Forte House Milan…

Fashion houses are part of the fabric around Quadrilatero della Moda, and boutique hotel Rocco Forte House Milan is a seamless addition. The interiors of this storied stay — set on the upper floors of a 19th-century palazzo — were reimagined by the hotel group’s design extraordinaire, Olgo Polizzi, in a fittingly modish collaboration with Paolo Moschino and Philip Vergelyn. Each sprawling suite is elegantly Italian, revived with modern touches (21st-century tech, lacquered accent walls or wide-striped wallpaper) that cleverly flatter the building’s age-old, aureate frescoes and fireplaces.

Style doesn’t dip when it comes to locale, either. Prada, Versace and Valentino are just a few names you’ll spot down the street, and a personal concierge is on call to score reservations at the city’s finest ristoranti. And if you find yourself fancying a quieter night in, private chefs wait in the wings to prepare convivial, in-suite suppers. This rarefied stay fits like a high-end glove.
