Rocco Forte Hotels is proud to announce a new hotel opening in Milan’s fashionable centre. It will be the first Rocco Forte property in the Italian city and is set to welcome guests in 2025 after a full refurbishment. Rocco Forte Hotel’s Director of Design, Olga Polizzi, will collaborate with interior designers Paolo Moschino and Philip Vergeylen to recreate an authentic Milanese experience that represents the sophistication and style of this design capital. Elegant interiors and furnishings will accompany inviting and intimate spaces, combined to create a traditional, luxury Milanese hotel with elements of surprise. The new hotel is set to offer approximately 70 rooms and suites, a restaurant and lounge bar and full wellness centre with gym and spa. Milan is one of the world’s most dynamic and design-centric destinations, a creative and vigorous city. It has always been an extremely productive centre with even greater development generated by the success of the Expo in 2015. We have great confidence in Milan’s future and the many international events and visitors it welcomes every year”, says Sir Rocco Forte, Founder and President of Rocco Forte Hotels. “We are thrilled to confront this extraordinary city and bring our philosophy of luxury and quality here”. Following the opening of Hotel de la Ville and Rocco Forte House in Rome, The Carlton Milan consolidates the fruitful collaboration with owners Reale Mutua and becomes Rocco Forte Hotels’ eighth property in Italy making the group the most successful luxury operator in the country.
