TRAVEL
Michelin Milan cont... a full body massage that was both vigorous and profoundly relaxing. I emerged feeling rebuilt from the inside out, muscles loose and mind wonderfully clear.
And of course that’ s not all Il Principe offers. The bar is stunning. Moody, atmospheric yet still welcoming, with live pianists setting the mood while bartenders curate signature serves. There are stunning boutiques offering just a taste of the designer goods the city is so well known for. And there is also Acanto, the hotel’ s stylish signature restaurant which takes guests from breakfasts of plentiful buffet proportions, signature à la carte eggs and an early morning cappuccino( just don’ t order one after 11am!) to taster menu Michelin Guide-recommended dinners with a side order of crystal chandeliers, tableside theatrics and a great wine list( you can read more over the page).
Set further out of the city, a stay here offers welcome respite and grander charm. The service was faultlessly warm without fuss. The finish sophisticatedly glamourous. While the hotel’ s complimentary chauffeur shuttle service neatly bridges the gap for easy city exploring.
In a design-forward city that is edging closer to sleek minimalism, Il Principe remains gloriously, unapologetically itself, and that’ s no small achievement.
