L'Hôtel Palazzo Parigi

Palazzo Parigi ("Paris" in Italian) isn't just another luxury hotel in fashionable Brera—it's a masterclass in Italian grandeur with Parisian flair, brought to life by architect-owner Paola Giambelli and celebrated designer Pierre-Yves Rochon. Housed in an elegantly restored building, this urban palazzo boasts the kind of private garden that's almost mythical in central Milan. Rooms mix Italian opulence with French refinement, from silk-wrapped walls to wrought-iron balconies overlooking the rooftops or that coveted garden below. The showstopping 1,600-square-meter spa, complete with indoor pool, hammam, and sauna, feels like a secret Roman bath in the heart of the city, while the winter garden restaurant lets you dine under glass and stars. It's where Milan's old-world elegance meets modern luxury without trying too hard.
