Hotel Review: Casa Brera - A Blend of Femininity, Modernity, and Spectacular Rooftop Views of Milan's Duomo Cathedral
Casa Brera, A Luxury Collection hotel, has recently opened its doors in the heart of Milan's fashionable Brera neighbourhood. This historic building, beautifully designed by Spanish architect Patricia Urquiola, attracts a well-heeled crowd of locals and tourists, offering an adults-oriented atmosphere, despite being welcoming to children.
A Stylish Retreat
The hotel's design is a standout feature, combining the clean lines of the 1950s Italian Rationalist building with contemporary design. The colour palette of pinks, teals, greens, and blues adds a touch of elegance to the interiors. Each room, including the reviewer's, is exquisitely finished with careful attention to detail in every element.
Cultural and Shopping Highlights near You
The location of Casa Brera places guests within easy reach of Milan's cultural and shopping highlights. Whether you're interested in visiting the iconic Duomo di Milano or exploring the city's vibrant fashion scene, you'll find everything you need just a stone's throw away.
Dining Options
Casa Brera offers a variety of dining options. Breakfast at Scena features a well-curated menu and a concise buffet with both international options and Milanese classics. For dinner, Odachi, the hotel's Japanese restaurant, offers traditional Japanese recipes with select Italian ingredients. The black cod marinated in miso saikyo, priced at €38, is perfectly cooked alongside tender vegetables, while the zuke maguro, priced at €25, is mostly exquisite but has one fatty piece. The mochi selection, priced at €14, offers a choice of green tea or delicate cherry blossom flavours but is served slightly too frozen to fully enjoy.
Rooftop Amenities
Etereo, the hotel's rooftop bar, has a closed outdoor terrace during the reviewer's visit but offers a rooftop pool with views of Duomo di Milano. The hotel's lounge, Living, features inventive mixology and a book-inspired menu of thematic seasonal drinks.
Service and Accommodation
The reception staff at Casa Brera were friendly and efficient, although housekeeping timing could be improved. Rooms at Casa Brera start from €862 per night, excluding taxes, with check-in from 3pm and checkout at noon. However, the compact room size may disappoint those expecting more spacious accommodations, which is typical of central Milan properties.
In conclusion, Casa Brera, A Luxury Collection hotel, offers a chic and stylish retreat in the heart of Milan. With its elegant design, convenient location, and variety of dining options, it's an ideal choice for those seeking a luxurious experience in one of Italy's most fashionable cities.
