Mandarin Oriental Opens in Milan

Mandarin Oriental has expanded its portfolio of hotels in Europe with the opening of the Mandarin Oriental, Milan.

The 104-room Mandarin Oriental, Milan is housed within four redeveloped 18th century buildings, giving the property a distinctly residential feel.

Situated on the central Via Andegari, just a few steps away from the fashionable Via Manzoni and Montenapoleone, the hotel offers easy access to the city’s most important commercial, fashion and cultural centres.

The property combines contemporary Italian design by internationally renowned studio Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel Interiors, with timeless oriental luxury and service, to provide a comfortable and well-appointed environment.

Executive chef Antonio Guida, formerly of the two Michelin starred restaurant Il Pellicano,in Tuscany, presides over the hotel’s fine dining restaurant, Seta, which has a menu of dishes combining French, Asian and Tuscan influences. The restaurant offers al fresco dining in its courtyard as well as year-round seating indoors.

The more casual Mandarin Bar which also has courtyard seating, offers a ‘bistro style’ menu of Italian dishes and hotel classics. Its vibrant atmosphere makes it an ideal spot to enjoy a typical Milanese aperitivo, or evening drink created by expert mixologists.

The Spa at Mandarin Oriental, Milan has six treatment rooms, two couple’s suites and a dedicated Thai massage room. In addition, there is a world-class hair salon headed by celebrity stylist, Massimo Serini, a manicure and pedicure studio, a beauty studio, an indoor heated swimming pool and a state-of-the-art fitness centre.

“We are delighted to introduce Mandarin Oriental’s renowned hospitality to Italy, and are confident that Mandarin Oriental, Milan will become a new luxury landmark for guests seeking the finest address in the city,” said Luca Finardi, General Manager.

To celebrate the opening, the property is offering guests an Experience Milan promotion, which provides accommodation and includes a dining or spa credit of up to EUR 300 per stay.

Mandarin Oriental, Milan is also offering guests exclusive access to Expo Milano 2015, with a Taste of Expo package which provides two nights accommodation together with fast pass tickets, return transfers to the event and a complimentary “Aperitivo Gourmet” at the Mandarin Bar.
