WORDS BY MATTEO TOSI

Milan is known as the fashion capital, but it can also be a surprising romantic destination to experience with your future spouse. You can admire the enchanting Italian architecture, unique food, and the best clothes in the world. Staying at the charming Bulgari Hotel is the beginning of an exclusive experience. Just a few steps from via Montenapoleone, in the city center, an eighteenth-century palace renovated with taste welcomes the five-star hotel that, behind its austere facades, hides enchanting courtyards and unexpected green spaces. An example is the luxurious private garden of 4,000 square meters, a natural extension of the nearby Botanical Garden and an oasis of serenity and relaxation to regenerate.

The Bulgari Hotel Milano offers its guests an unforgettable stay, fulfilling their requests 24 hours a day and ensuring a high-quality service. The exclusive hotel organizes private visits to villas and museums, seaplane excursions on Lake Como, and tours to discover the most exclusive Italian destinations by private plane, limousine, or yacht. Moreover, after the openings in Beijing, Shanghai, and Dubai, three Michelin-starred chef Niko Romito has brought his restaurant back to where it all began: Milan, at the Bulgari Hotel. Contemporary Italian cuisine is at the base of Chef Niko's concept, which combines modern Italian with classical, perceiving the essence of “Made in Italy” in every element that composes it.
