Best Luxury Hotels In Milan

The second largest city in Italy, Milan has not only been recognised as the ‘Fashion Capital of the World’ since the 16th century, but it is also a leading global city for art, entertainment, design, finance and music- a real cosmopolitan mixing pot of culture and creative flair that boasts many things to do and see. Many landmarks and historic attractions can be found in Central Milan including the Duomo, the largest church in Italy and the fifth largest in the world and Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II – the oldest active shopping centre in Italy, which first opened its doors in 1877.
