History
The very first Bulgari hotel, opened May 18, 2004 in a 1950s building in Milan's Brera fashion district. Designed by Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel, it set the template for every Bulgari property that followed: black Zimbabwe marble, solid teak, and a signature gold-and-emerald mosaic pool and hamam. The 4,000 sq m private garden's framework dates to at least the 1300s.
The setting
Bulgari Hotel Milano occupies an 18th-century Milanese palazzo at the end of Via Privata Fratelli Gabba, a sequestered lane between the Quadrilatero della Moda and the bohemian Brera district. Teatro alla Scala lies six minutes on foot, the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II eight minutes, and the Pinacoteca di Brera nine minutes, placing guests at the crossroads of Milan's couture commerce and its Renaissance artistic heritage. The hotel's private garden, rare in this densely built centre, unfolds across an acre where medieval monastery walls once stood, and it sits amid a cluster of landmark luxury properties that have long endorsed the block as the city's premier enclave for discerning travellers.
