This charming apartment in the heart of beautiful Milan is the perfect spot for a family getaway to the city. Enjoy an energising cup of morning coffee at the breakfast bar while you catch up with some emails, followed by a scrumptiously warm breakfast to get you ready for the day ahead. The master bedroom includes a TV, making a duvet day easier than ever as you watch a movie marathon from the comfort of your own comfy bed sheets. As the daylight pours in through the windows, take a peek at the daily lives of the locals on the streets below – watching the world go by while relaxing is one of our favourite pastimes.

Step out of the apartment to explore the glamorously vintage city of Milan, with an abundance of luxurious boutiques, a plethora of hidden gems to discover, and a ton of eateries that serve sumptuous Italian cuisine. Public transport is close by, allowing you to delve deeper into the destination to visit historical landmarks such as Sforzesco Castle. You can't travel to Milan without visiting the famous Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, a nineteenth–century shopping arcade that boasts lavish shops and opulent dining experiences.
