T he mandarin oriental, Milan debuted in 2015 during the Milan Expo, slipping gracefully into the fabric of the city. Whether you’re in Milan for business, Fashion Week or La Scala, the location is ideal, minutes from Duomo Square and Piazza della Scala, the Galleria Vittorio Emmanuelle and the heart of the fashion district. The MO is a salute to Milanese style and design. Seta, the Italian word for silk, is the name of the hotel’s two- star Michelin restaurant, a nod to Italian silk produced in the region. Guests welcome the immediate connection to the culture and history of the city. The hotel blends four 18th century buildings with two open-air courtyards into one elegant haven. Marvel at the walls of Italian marble hand cut by local artisans. Rooms and suites are modern and comfortable, with sleek furnishings; sophisticated as well as functional. Two suites are custom designed by renowned Milanese designers: the Piero Fornasetti suite, styled in

collaboration with the designer’s brand and the Giò Ponti suite. Mandarin Oriental hotels are known for their signature spas. Make time for a soothing massage and a swim surrounded by elements of stone, wood, and running water. Time to dine? The Mandarin Bar and Bistrot has the very cool vibe of the local hot spot for aperativi and cocktails. The Bistrot also offers breakfast, lunch and dinner in an indoor lounge and a fabulous open-air courtyard. Looking for a Michelin-starred memory? Dine at the chef’s table for two INSIDE the kitchen of Seta. The exalted executive chef, Antonio Guida, welcomes you into his kitchen to savor the flavors and observe his team as they create Seta’s culinary wonders. The ultimate gastronomic experience, right in your hotel. It’s no surprise: setting, service, style and exclusivity are the hallmark of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group. mandarinoriental.com/milan –Debbie Silver i i i ’ i i i . i i l l i . i , , ll
