A classic. The Principe di Savoia is how you envision a visit to Milan should feel. One of the grand historic hotels of Europe, the service is impeccable, the gilded lobby is vibrant and buzzing, and the guests are far better dressed than usual. A young woman in the elevator is in head to toe Chanel; the mature couple checking in is a style inspiration.
GUEST ROOM
The guest room décor is rich and royal. Fitted with lavishly appointed textiles and Aqua di Parma bath accoutrements.
Breakfast may be taken in the hotel gardens, aperativo in the bold-hued lobby bar, and a nightcap in the Principe Bar.
BAR
At least one trip by foot from your residence in the Piazza della Repubblica to the Piazza del Duomo is in order–the journey will take you through some of Milan’s most beautiful and exclusive neighborhoods. A complimentary hotel shuttle makes two stops: one on the famed shopping boulevard, Via Monte Napoleone, and the other at the opera house, Teatro alla Scala.
A visit to La Rinascente department store, adjacent to Milan’s iconic Galleria, should not be cut short, and may be accompanied with a lunch on their rooftop patio overlooking the spires of the Duomo. Continue to indulge your cultural appetite by following the Louis Vuitton Milan city guide.
POOL
Back at the Principe di Savoia, an evening dip in the hotel pool comes with a view high over the city, and a visit to the spa soothes sore feet.
