Velasca Reverie

Holiday Rental Description

Set in a building designed by architect Luigi Caccia Dominioni, this apartment offers something Milan's street-level hotels simply can't – rooftop views across the city skyline from the living room and bedroom alike. The contemporary interiors strike a balance between modern design and classic Lombard elegance, and the kitchen is ready whenever you want to cook rather than venture out. Venture out you will, though – Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is a ten-minute walk, La Scala Opera House a thirteen-minute walk, and Milan Cathedral a fourteen-minute walk, putting the city's best within easy reach.

Home truths:
* At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area.
* Heating and air conditioning in the building are managed by the co-ownership association rather than individual apartments, so you won't be able to set your own temperature during your stay.
* The apartment is on a lively city block, so some noise – bells, neighbours, street sounds – is part of the experience. It's unlikely to disrupt most stays, but worth bearing in mind if you're a light sleeper.
* If you're travelling with a baby or young child, your host can provide a cot and high chair. Make sure to request them in advance of your arrival.
* Luggage storage is available just around the corner from the apartment – a handy option if you want to make the most of your last day in Milan before heading to the airport.
