The Grand Hotel et de Milan, a historic 5-star hotel in the heart of Milan, occupies a building where composer Giuseppe Verdi lived for 27 years and is today part of The Leading Hotels of the World group.
It stands on Via Manzoni, just steps from Teatro alla Scala and about a 10-minute walk from the Duomo, in one of the city’s most prestigious shopping districts. The property is designed for those seeking a classic luxury stay: eighteenth-century furnishings, marble, fine fabrics and attentive service characterise every space.
The rooms, air-conditioned and equipped with minibar, satellite TV and free WiFi, range from the elegant Classic rooms to spacious suites with a sitting area and terrace, up to the Presidential Suite of over 100 square metres. Notable amenities include a gym with high-tech equipment, the Don Carlos restaurant for Italian cuisine, the more informal Caruso and Gerry’s Bar, open late into the night. Pets are welcome at no extra charge, making the hotel suitable for those travelling with their dog too.
The rooms at the Grand Hotel et de Milan range from the inviting 23 m² Classic rooms to large suites exceeding 100 m², offering solutions suited to both business trips and couple or family holidays.
