Directly opposite Milan’s central train station, this boutique hotel with a hip vibe has fun public spaces enlivened with street art and funky sculptures. The 299 small but stylish guest rooms feature black-and-white cinematic photos on the walls and a cool feel. The fun extends to the Clash Restaurant, which serves up international dishes to a young crowd, while at the lobby bar, a DJ spins tunes till late in the evenings. Two terraces—a fifth-floor space with sun loungers and a twelfth-floor rooftop terrace—as well as a garden outfitted with oversized bean bag chairs are perfect places to rest after a hectic day of sightseeing.
Neighbourhood
Though there aren’t any must-see sights nearby, the area is perfect for traveling elsewhere in Italy or for getting around the city—besides the train station, there’s easy access to the metro, trams and buses.
