“A luxury 5-star hotel in the heart of Milan with attractions Piazza del Duomo and the Quadrilatero della Moda at its doorstep. This 19th-century palazzo turned plush, contemporary designer hotel has it all: location, wellness and gastronomy for the well-heeled traveller.”

Hotel review

Located in the heart of the central tourist district, Palazzo Cordusio Gran Melia feels like a sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of Italy’s fashion city, Milan. With the largest Starbucks Reserve in Europe across the street, Piazza del Duomo and the Quadrilatero della Moda just steps away from the hotel, this newly converted 19th-century palazzo is a retreat for those who want easy access to all the main attractions, yet comfort when in the hotel. The hotel has an expansive wellness centre with indoor pool, steam room and sauna, as well as a 24-hour gym.
 
There are 84 rooms including 29 suites which are elegantly designed and spacious with large bathtubs and showers. Some rooms have balconies and views of Milan like you have never seen before. There are three main dining options to choose from: Isola for seafood, Sachi for Japanese-inspired dishes and Giardino Cordusio Bar for cocktails with a twist – perfect for aperitivo. If you do choose to dine out, be sure to use the concierge for her non-touristy recommendations. The service throughout the hotel is friendly and efficient, making the Palazzo Cordusio Gran Melia experience a memorable one.
