Mandarin Oriental, Milan spreads across four classic buildings near La Scala, between the Duomo and the Golden Quadrangle, with interiors by Antonio Citterio. It is a polished city hotel with a strong food reputation, a courtyard at its centre and views split between the courtyard and the city. MICHELIN describes the mood as modern and lively. It suits travellers who want an opera-and-shopping base with serious dining and contemporary design.
