Grand hotel et de Milan
The Grand Hotel et de Milan is a real museum, where antique furniture of the 18th-19th centuries coexists with cutting-edge technical solutions.
The main "feature" of the hotel is the name numbers, which got their names in honor of the celebrities who stayed here: Lukino Visconti, Maria Callas, Giorgio Streller, Enrico Caruso and many other representatives of the cultural elite, whose photographs, autographs and personal belongings are carefully stored in the walls of the hotel.
The most famous and luxurious hotel room in this series is named after the composer Giuseppe Verdi, who lived at the Grand Hotel et de Milan for about 27 years.
At one time, the hotel building was surrounded by crowds of fans who expressed enthusiasm in this way about the new opera or concern about the health of the maestro during the composer's illness. The street along the hotel was once even lined with straw on the orders of the authorities so that the knock of the wheels of the passing carriages would not disturb the genius.
Here is a complete harmony of rarity and cutting-edge solutions.
The popularity of Grand Hotel et de Milan is justified, among other things, by its very good location a few meters from the Teatro alla Scala and Milan's main shopping street, Via Monte Napoleone.
The restaurant Don Carlos, decorated with paintings and scenographic projects from the La Scala Theater Museum, is often visited by spectators after performances in order to share the sounds of classical music with their impressions of the long-awaited premiere.
The Caruso restaurant, famous for its winter garden, is preferred by businessmen and politicians: here you can always have a cup of coffee or discuss important issues at a business breakfast. A more relaxed atmosphere is characteristic of the Gerry's bar, where guests are treated to drinks and light snacks until 01:00 at night.
