On 1 February the new five-star lifestyle Hotel Nemi-Nest is to open in Milan.
Suites with gardens and city views
Located on Via Benvenuto Cellini, in the Cinque Giornate area, a district with historic shops, local markets and artisan workshops as well as new fashion showrooms and design studios, the hotel will have 49 rooms on four floors. These include the Garden Suites, with private gardens and the Milano Suites, with panoramic views over the rooftops and the city’s skyline. There is also an open-air inner courtyard, which is a modern take on the style of the old railing houses typical of Milan. There is also a bar lounge and the Forte Milano Restaurant, with menus that pay homage to Mediterranean seafood traditions.
Guided tours of the neighbourhood
Designed for Nemi by experienced designers and Elesta, the hotel offers many activities that are not just accessory elements of a stay, but a fundamental and significant way to engage with the city. Such as exploring the neighbourhood from the colourful Via Lincoln to the Quadrilatero del Silenzio to discover the musical soul of Milan, which begins at the Conservatoire and includes a visit to a lute-maker's workshop. Then there is the Milan for kids, ranging from an urban stroll around (and inside) the Bagni Misteriosi, to gastronomic tours of traditional Milanese cuisine, ethnic venues, local markets and innovative new restaurants, as well as outings with an expert guide to enjoy the neighbourhood shopping streets and many “secret” corners.
Essential lines and a play of lights
The hotel‘s architectural details are reminiscent of the interweaving of nests, hence the name Nemi-Nest. The exterior façade, with its essential lines, is enhanced by a play of lights, by iGuzzini, that move the surface. The interior design project by Spagnulo & Partners relies on a discreet and refined palette of colours to create an intimate and sophisticated ambience, which, at the same time, projects a youthful mood with ironic and contemporary touches.
