Grand Hotel Duomo, Milan

Conveniently situated in Duomo Square in the centre of Milan, and within easy reach of La Scala and some of the most exclusive shops in the city, the Grand Hotel Duomo is one of the Milan's most prestigious 5-star hotels. Originally a palace dating back to 1860, it was turned into a hotel in 1950 and since then has become famous for its luxurious accommodation and first-class service.

The hotel has 162 comfortable, atmospheric rooms and 20 suites, each with windows overlooking the magnificent cathedral and each with decor that takes its inspiration from the styling of a famous film, including Out of Africa, The Great Gatsby, The last Emperor, A Passage to India, A Year in Provence, Casanova and Lawrence of Arabia. The hotel's common areas are equally beautifully decorated, with 17th-century engravings, modern sculpture and eyecatching paintings.

Romance and sophistication are the order of the day at the Grand Hotel Duomo. You can enjoy a relaxing lunch at the Cafe des Arts, followed by afternoon tea in the Orangerie on the roof of the hotel, which has outstanding views of the city. As evening comes, you can then dine in style at the excellent Ristorante Duomo.

Popular with opera singers, painters and writers, and perfect for both business travellers and holidaymakers - it is just 3km from the Milano Centrale railway station, 3 km from the Fiera Milano Convention Centre and 2 km from the Malpensa Express railway station - you can be sure of a warm welcome at the Grand Hotel Duomo.
