Portrait Milano Hotel - Lungarno Collection

It may be set in a former 16th-century seminary, but there’s nothing stuffy about Portrait Milano. The hotel sits within the Quadrilatero della Moda’s iconic square, now open to the public as a piazza. Rooms and suites feature retro-chic design touches like walnut accents and sleek rattan panels. Downstairs, 10_11 restaurant serves classic Italian plates and aperitifs, while a tucked-away spa offers a serene retreat with cryotherapy and a pool set in a vaulted, Roman-inspired room.
