Hotel Calimala Milan – A Design-Forward Boutique Hotel Arrives in Italy’s Style Capital
If Hotel Calimala Florence is anything to go by, its brand-new sister hotel in Milan is set to be a game-changer for the city’s luxury boutique scene. Opening in spring 2025, Hotel Calimala Milan will bring a bold, contemporary take on hospitality, design, and culinary experiences, all wrapped up in an ultra-stylish setting.
A Fresh Take on Milanese Elegance
Designed by the acclaimed Alex Meitlis, the architect behind some of the world’s most striking boutique hotels, Hotel Calimala Milan is envisioned as a “Total Design Project”—a seamless blend of architectural beauty, bespoke interiors, and modern luxury. Expect 88 meticulously designed rooms and suites, each reflecting the city’s distinctive mix of history, fashion, and cutting-edge design.
FIVE – A Rooftop to Rival the Best in Milan
Milan is known for its rooftop bars, but FIVE at Hotel Calimala Milan is set to take things up a notch. This two-story rooftop will house a Mediterranean-inspired restaurant and bar led by Chef Moshiko Gamlali, promising a seasonal, locally inspired menu in a space that’s equal parts chic and inviting. With an open-air swimming pool, this will be the go-to spot for sunset cocktails, leisurely brunches, and late-night lounging with panoramic city views.
