We (my husband and I) just returned from our trip to Milan and had the pleasure of staying at the Palazzo Cordusio, a Gran Melia Hotel. It is a stunning property that was formerly the headquarters for a large Italian Insurance Firm that they have gut renovated to have all the offerings (and more) of a 5-star hotel. The rooms are beautiful and elegant/modern. Housekeeping & turn down service was always prompt and did an excellent job. They took the time to think about small touches that went a long way, for me this was providing both hair dryers AND straighteners (a bonus) and for my husband in addition to the usual amenity kits they had lip balm and rich hand cream which was a must with the chilly Milan weather. They had plenty of hangers and lots of storage so our bags/wardrobe could neatly be put away. They had 3 restaurants on site, a bar on the ground floor, an Asian restaurant on the 4th floor, and primary restaurants/patio on the 5th floor that serves breakfast daily. We never had an issue getting a table, even last minute, and the service was always impeccable. The spa in the basement is GORGEOUS, and I recommend bringing your swimsuit for a dip in the pool or at minimum just visit the spa for the steam/sauna. We had the hotel assist us with purchasing AC Milan tickets and they exceeded our expectations. They found us amazing seats and arranged transportation to the game for us. A huge thank you to both Jessica and Luca who were extremely attentive and helpful in making that experience happen. The location is steps away from the Duomo and the Galleria making it a desirable location for anyone wanting to be in the action of the city. For us New Yorkers we never had an issue with noise (the Milan tram system runs right by the hotel) but if you are a sensitive sleeper I'd ask for your room to be higher up (floors 3-4). We personally loved being so close to the transportation options as we had short commutes getting around the city in the cold weather. For anyone looking at this hotel, book it! We loved every minute of it and it will be our home base in Milan when we return.
