With its incredibly central location just a ten-minute walk from the Duomo di Milano, this elegant apartment is the perfect base for those looking to make the most of the city’s famous sights. Inside, Italian style personifies itself in the chic, pared-back decor that feels appropriate for one of the world’s fashion capitals. Start your mornings with a luxurious soak under the bathrooms’ rainfall showers before sitting down to a breakfast of espresso and fresh pastries at the dining table. Then, head out for a day of exploring – you needn’t walk far to see countless impressive monuments and historic buildings. Basilica di Sant'Ambrogio, Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II and Sforzesco Castle are a ten-minute walk, the Teatro alla Scala is walkable in twelve and the city’s famous Fashion District is twenty-five minutes away on foot. After a day of walking, come back home for a bubble bath and a cosy homemade Italian feast before retreating to the sophisticated bedrooms for a blissful night’s sleep.

Local guide
About Sant'Ambrogio & San Vittore
The neighbourhoods of Sant'Ambrogio & San Vittore sit on the South-West edge of Milan's historical centre. Sant'Ambrogio is home to the Universitá Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, the city's largest private university, so the area has a large student population. As a result, you’ll find lots of inexpensive restaurants, cafés, sandwich shops, and pizzerias. The fact that it has a large student population isn't to suggest that it is low-end though...

Host
This home is managed by Laura
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Laura used to work for Italian MTV, but these days she and a couple of friends look after several apartments in the city – all right in the centre. With such a professional approach, you might think that she’d come across as a bit managerial, but in fact, the opposite is true – there’s a real personal touch to the whole operation.
