Best Hotels near The Duomo, Milan

The Duomo in Milan is one of the greatest works of architecture in Europe. Perhaps that's why it took 600 years to build. This gorgeous gothic cathedral, in the heart of the city, draws huge crowds to marvel at the beautiful statues lining the interior, and the spellbinding panoramas from the rooftop. For many travellers, a hotel near the Duomo means a really central base close to all the city's highlights. We've selected a handful of our favourite properties from five star luxury pads to industrial chic hipster hangouts. Browse our pick of the best places to stay near the Duomo and start planning your Milan city break.

For the art

If you like modern art and cool design, Hotel Spadari al Duomo might be the one for you. It's a high-tech, contemporary hotel just a few steps from the Duomo. Rooms and suites in pastel colours are adorned with original works by both Italian and international artists.

Pampering luxury

Park Hyatt Milano is one of Milan's best luxury hotels, and better still, perfectly located. It's stood opposite the Galleria Vittoria Emmanuel and is just one street from the Duomo. You'll feel utterly pampered too, with the fun, popular cocktail bar, and the spa, all set within a grand 19th-century former bank. A grand, luxury stay!
The Gray is a bold, hip and beautiful boutique hotel. Only 100 metres from the Duomo, rooms are individually designed with plenty of steel, glass, ethnic wood, silk and animal prints. Book a suite for either a private gym or Turkish bath. Modern luxury in a marvellous location!

For Industrial Chic

Straf's grand, 19th-century exterior masks its industrial, minimalist spirit. While it's only just a few steps from the ancient, noble Duomo, inside it's an oasis of the avant-garde: ultra-cool industrial rooms of burnished brass, polished concrete, with little chic explosions of colour. Complete with a spa and small indoor pool, it's a stylish luxury stay in the heart of Milan.

For vibrant decor

Room Mate Giulia is also next to Galleria Vittoria Emmanuel, and a short walk from the Duomo. It's a chic, designer boutique with a touch of vintage charm. The lavish breakfast (which runs until midday) will certainly set you up for a day of sightseeing!
