You’ll find an excellent selection of four and five-star hotels in Milan. Pick from boutique hotels with an indoor pool and private garden or a five-star hotel with a presidential suite and wine cellar. Hotels in Milan are something else.

In this guide, we have picked out the top 13 best luxury hotels in Milan. But first, let’s establish more about where to stay in Milan by looking at its best neighborhoods.

Where To Stay in Milan

Where to stay in Milan Italy duomo di milano

Milan is split into nine significant regions but 80 different miniature neighborhoods. Generally, it’s best to stay central – conveniently located near the Milan train station and major attractions. Most hotels in the Milan city center are luxurious and stylish. Central Milan is packed with restaurants, spa hotels, and shops. But what are the best regions? And what makes each one unique?

Centro Storico

Centro Storico is the most central part of Milan city center. It is best for anyone visiting Milan for the first time since you get an inner-city experience and all the major attractions on your doorstep. For a special occasion, Centro Storico has some of the best views – especially if you bag a private balcony.

Stazione Centrale

Stazione Centrale is the area around Milan’s central train station. It is ideal for anyone using public transport to head on day trips. Milan is connected to many major destinations by train – including Italy’s capital, Rome.

Incredible Luxury Hotels in Milan Italy

Quadrilatero d’Oro 

Quadrilatero d’Oro is Milan’s fashion district and is full of shops. It’s fantastic for retail therapy and a shopping district experience. And let’s face it, Milan is the home of fashion.

Brera

Brera is a cultural hub within easy distance of Milan’s city center. It’s an arty place to stay and perfect for creatives and local artists. It is a good choice for a downtown vibe rather than a Milan hotel amidst the business district or main tourist sites.

Navigli

Navigli is a nightlife hotspot and has a young, trendy crowd. This district is packed with bars and clubs. Navigli is where we’d suggest for die-hard partiers – it is the most lively location in Milan after dark.

Porta Nuova

Porta Nuova is Milan’s business district, meaning it is lively by day and empty at night. Porta Nuova is where we’d recommend to people wanting a quiet experience in Milan stay. It will be busy when you are out sightseeing, but nice and quiet for a good night’s sleep.

1. Bulgari Hotel Milano

ME Milan II Duca stands out in particular for one thing – its rooftop terrace. This Milan hotel is located in the Stazione Centrale district, right in the thick of all the main action of the city. And from its rooftop perch, guests have unrivaled views over the Milan skyline. The rooftop terrace has daily DJ sets and aperitivo; it has good vibes all the time.

And if you’d rather stay in and observe the shopping unfold from above, you’ll be happy to know each room has a terrace or balcony.

Palazzo Parigi Hotel and Grand Spa Bar

We’ve got to admit we were superficial when choosing Palazzo Parigi. Its good looks are impossible to resist, and if you want to channel your inner royal, it is a beautiful base in Milan. For a Milan hotel that provides an ‘experience’ with its luxurious accommodation, Palazzo Parigi is ideal. Amenities include a huge indoor swimming pool with dramatic column features and an on-site spa. Rooms range from executive doubles to presidential suites. Booking.com / TripAdvisor

Palazzo Segreti is one of the most modern boutique hotels in the city. Situated in the Centro Storico district, it is an easy walk to major attractions like Milan Cathedral. It is set in one of the prominent 18th-century buildings, but inside, Palazzo Segreti is fresh-colored and upbeat.

It is a fun place to stay with an elegant but funky appeal and a fantastic location.

Palazzo Segreti made our list for its bold sense of style. We like how it doesn’t fit the typical ‘luxury hotel’ mold. Amenity-wise, Palazzo Segreti is limited because there isn’t a swimming pool or spa. However, the hotel has a killer breakfast with many sweet treats and a 24-hour front desk.

8. Aethos Milan

Best Luxury Apartments in Milan Aethos Milan

Aethos Milan is in the southwest of the city, near the lively neighborhood of Navigli. Because of its location, it is perfect for outgoing travelers wanting to let their hair down and party in Milan. With a range of suites and apartments, the hotel is quite a niche luxury property in the city. You’ll have spacious rooms with extra luxuries like Nespresso coffee machines and pay-per-view channels. To tread the line between self-catered and luxury accommodation, Aethos Milan is an attractive choice. That dual identity is what most stood out to us. Its flexibility is impressive.

It is worth noting that Aethos Milan has a sports theme. From the artwork in guest rooms to the statues in the bar lounge, there are stylish nods to sports throughout the hotel. Aethos Milan is a really unusual, vibrant place to stay in Italy. Booking.com / TripAdvisor

The early 1900s hotel building is sleek and classic, painted white and stretching multiple stories. Inside, the design is equally classy, with a timeless black and white color theme and ornate black paneling and metal features. Senato Hotel Milano is luxurious, and it knows it.

12. Armani Hotel Milano

Best Luxury Hotel in Milan Italy Armani Hotel Milano

Armani Hotel Milano is easily one of our top three luxury hotels. In the hectic Stazione Centrale district, Armani Hotel Milano is one of the best hotels in Milan for a convenient location. You are just 50 meters from the metro and minutes from the station. It is also one of the only hotels with a pet-friendly policy, so note it if you plan to travel with a cat or pooch.

Another impressive thing about Armani Hotel Milano is the level of hospitality. Upon arrival, guests are escorted to their rooms or suites by a personal lifestyle manager. This manager is your eyes and ears in Milan; perfect for concierge services and grabbing quick advice. The facilities are equally fantastic, including a sauna and Turkish bath.

13. Hotel Principe di Savoia

Cool Luxury Hotels in Milan Hotel Principe di Savoia

Hotel Principe di Savoia is stunning; let’s just start there. The towering white hotel building is a traditional property in the Stazione Centrale district. Each window is adorned by decorative red flowers – much like the Gaudi buildings in Barcelona. Hotel Principe di Savoia has that wow factor before you even consider entering the door.

The hotel itself is beautifully decorated with a theme of dark wooden furnishings and paneling. Everything is deluxe and indulgent, from heavy purple curtains to freestanding baths. Guests are gifted bathrobes and slippers on arrival so they can sink straight into relaxation. And on those lazy days, you can dine on-site rather than heading out to surrounding restaurants. Hotel Principe di Savoia has a buffet breakfast in the morning, a Milanese restaurant in the late evening, and a cocktail lounge bar for late-night indulging.

The whole hotel is beautiful. However, we added it to this list because of its spa. The spa is adorned with frescoes and soft lighting. Guests get a sauna, pool, and Turkish bath to rejuvenate between sightseeing in Milan. That high-quality downtime is significant, especially in a large, busy city like Milan.
