What it is

A fusion of French and Italian styles in the city of high fashion.

What it isn't

Purely contemporary—the hotel may have opened in 2013, but the antiques and beautifully restored stucco within are centuries old.

What we think

Architect Paola Giambelli joined forces with renowned French interior designer Pierre-Yves Rochon to inject a zesty new joie de vivre into the 16th-Century Palazzo Cramer XVII. The result—all polished Carrara marble, varnished walnut and sweeping staircases—is a must-see. Guests can choose between two styles of room: more contemporary “Milan,” with Murano fixtures, marble fireplaces and a pale palette, or classic “French,” featuring floral carpets, regal armchairs and Old World chandeliers. All of them are flooded with natural light and have balconies overlooking the city or the property’s gardens. The Palazzo Parigi partners with the nearby Teatro Alla Scala to offer guests preferred seating for opera and other performances.

You're here because

You want a hotel worthy of showing off your glamorous wardrobe—but you also don’t mind it stealing your thunder.

The Moment

You return from shopping to men and women wearing crisp suits and sleek dresses, eddying around an atrium of white, spiral-veined marble pillars. A crystal chandelier illuminates the fashionable glow. Maybe just one trip to the Galleria before dinner?
