Scene
High-end boutique hotel with an emphasis on local art and design
Sculptures and paintings by local artists predominate the lobby and public areas of the well-designed Spadari. Soothing hues of blue, gray, and white give the hotel a serene feel while bright pillars and decorative overhead lights make the space modern. The breakfast room features bold orange sofas and clusters of curated artwork. A cozy sitting area with a log burning fireplace gives guests a chance to curl up with a cocktail from the small bar.
Location
One block from the Duomo and near major shopping venues
This luxurious four-pearl boutique hotel has an ideal location in uptown Milan. The hotel is just one block from the world-famous cathedral it's named after and a few minutes walk from the best fashion names -- Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and Prada, among others -- found in the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. Other iconic sights like the Teatro alla Scalla and the Palazzo Reale are nearby as well. Though the neighborhood is bustling and vibrant with a party atmosphere, the Spadari has a serene quality, making it a tranquil place to return to at the end of the day or middle of the night.
Rooms
Uniquely decorated, art-filled, and luxurious -- plus balconies
The rooms inside the Spadari al Duomo are uniquely decorated and filled with local art. Each is done in soothing tones of blue, gray, and white with light wood accents and gauzy draperies. Green plants overflow on the balconies overlooking a landscaped courtyard or the city of Milan. Some of the furniture shows signs of wear however and there have been complaints that the rooms are too small for the cost.
Features
Buffet-style breakfast with loads of character, but no pool or spa
Like many boutique hotels in Italy, the Spadari doesn't have a lot of on-site features. However, breakfast, Wi-Fi, and non-alcoholic beverages are free -- a rare occurrence, even at this price point. The small bar in the breakfast room is good for an emergency nightcap and the lobby encourages art browsing and people watching. If a spa or swimming pool are important, then check out luxury chain properties like the nearby Four Seasons Hotel Milano.
