Minutes away from some of this city\u2019s most visited landmarks \u2013 the Duomo Square, Quadrilatero della Moda and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II (to name a few) \u2013 Gran Meli\u00e1 has opened its first Milan hotel, Palazzo Cordusio. A fusion of historical grandeur and contemporary design, the hotel is housed within a building conceived by Italian architect Luca Beltrami in the 18th century, named Palazzo Venezia, and later constructed by Italian insurance company Generali to serve as its Milanese headquarters. Today, it stands tall as a neo-classical gem overlooking the historical Piazza Cordusio, which gives the new hotel its name.<\/p>\n

The building played a pivotal role in the area\u2019s restoration between the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and today, as a hotel, it emerges as a dynamic centre, connecting the city\u2019s most frequented cultural landmarks.<\/p>\n

Spanish design studio ASAH, a long-standing partner of Meli\u00e1 Hotels International, orchestrated the metamorphosis of the interior into 84 luxurious guest rooms and suites. Seeking to preserve the building\u2019s rich history, the team restored some historical features of the old headquarters, such as a grand dome on the top floor, where the hotel\u2019s reception lies alongside a copy of the mosaic from the fa\u00e7ade. Characteristically, all rooms boast imposing windows, with some including private balconies that provide abundant natural light.<\/p>\n

In an ode to Assicurazioni Generali\u2019s Venetian roots, each room and suite is dressed in opulent Rubelli textiles and noble Venetian floors. Meanwhile, furnishings from Italy\u2019s leading design brands, including Molteni, Cassina, Fornasetti, Flos, Oluce and Foscarini, affirm the hotel\u2019s cultural resonance.<\/p>\n

An intimate wellness sanctuary beckons guests, boasting an indoor pool, a sauna, a Turkish bath and a relaxation lounge. Adjacent lies a cutting-edge gym equipped with Technogym equipment and a panoramic vista of Palazzo della Ragione and Piazza Mercanti.<\/p>\n

The hotel offers four exceptional home-grown dining concepts. Gioia Pasticceria, a collaborative venture with master baker Fabio Bertoni, sets the stage for delectable pastries. Giardino Cordusio, an Italian-themed cocktail bar led by consulting barman Giancarlo Mancino and nestled in the hotel\u2019s inner courtyard, specialises in martinis and negronis; Isola Restaurant, helmed by brand chef Francesco Bagnato, draws inspiration from the sun-kissed isles of southern Italy. Lastly, Sachi, a Japanese dining gem under the guidance of chef Moon Kyung Soo, enriches the hotel\u2019s gastronomic landscape.<\/p>\n
