Rifugio d'Artista

Holiday Rental Description

A spacious and stylish apartment filled with natural light and bags of character, this home is located in an imposing traditional Milanese building right by the city's central train station. It makes a great first impression, with gleaming floors, stained glass windows and a characterful wooden elevator preparing you for what's the come. The cultured owners of this exquisite and soulful home are artsy types, as the original paintings sprinkled throughout the stunning communal areas – created by the host's artist father – or the built-in bookcases will attest. Given its location, transport connections are expectedly excellent, though you're not right in the centre if that's what you're specifically after. Instead, hop on the Metro to reach the heart of the city in under fifteen minutes. Alternatively, embark on a leisurely stroll to the likes of the Duomo di Milano in around forty minutes. Closer by, the likes of Via Tadino and Via San Gregorio – both around a ten-minute walk – have plenty of options when it comes to drinking and dining.
