The Quadrilatero Della Moda fashion hub and Via Monte Napoleone are, quite literally, on the Four Seasons Milan’s doorstep – and rooms overlooking the green cloistered courtyard of this 15th-century convent strike the perfect balance with the buzz of Italy’s fashion capital. Carrara marble and frescoed ceilings abound, the hotel’s Milanese chic is coupled with the sleek service required of any visit to this irresistibly lively city.
In the convent’s former cellar, a Patricia Urquiola-designed spa ushers in a distinct level of calm. The hotel is an impeccably comfortable – and convenient – base from which to make sartorial quests or venture into the historic centre, where the Duomo’s Gothic architecture and stained glass never fail to impress.
