Anna spends most of her time living in Elysium, and as such the place has a real sense of vitality to it. It’s not minimalist – if that’s the vibe you’re after, or if the thought of other people’s things puts you off then this isn’t for you – but the feeling that you’re being genuinely welcomed into the home outweighs all of that. At least for us it does. You can also see the Arco della Pace from the balcony, which bears more than a passing resemblance to the Arc de Triomphe.

Local guide
About Sempione
Sempione is named after the gigantic park just inside the district, a perfect place for a sunny Sunday vibe, or to relax after days of sightseeing. Napoleon transformed it into a garden when it used to be a forest for the hunting trips of the Sforza family. The area is ideal for visitors who want to take a step away from the buzzing city, but it is still well served...
