Brera Apartments, Milan, Italy - Explore & Book

"Carefully styled to please fashionistas and the design-conscious, these elegant apartments are set in or near the hip Brera area, known for its cornucopia of shops, bars, evening promenades and nightlife. There are 15 to choose from, all subtly different. To give you an idea, the Brera Apartments are in a 1960s cobbled courtyard of flats off the Via San Fermo, and combine pure white walls with designer fixtures, flush fittings and shiny wood floors. The split-level, slope-raftered Garibaldi Suite sits in a 1950s steel-and glass block, and has a mezzanine double bedroom reached via a twist of glass and metal stairs. Most are approximately a 20-25 minute stroll from the Stazione Centrale and Duomo, so you can live like a local but explore the city with ease. Larger apartments have fully equipped kitchens - ideal for families or those on a budget - while smaller studio apartments are a chic base to visit the neighbourhood restaurants. And whichever you choose, you won't want for a thing; these really are homes away from home.
