The new Marriott Casa Brera, a luxury lifestyle hotel, has opened in Milan.
A 1950s building with Milanese flair
The project is the result of the conservative restoration of a building that dates back to the late 1950s and was designed by architect Pietro Lingeri, a leading figure in the Italian rationalism movement. Casa Brera is designed by Patricia Urquiola who has played on the dichotomy between stylistic rigour and creative flair, representing two complementary faces of Milan and paying homage to the rationalist architecture of the Lombard capital.
The hotel has 116 rooms and four F&B hubs
Located in Piazzetta Bossi, just a few steps away from the La Scala opera house, the hotel has 116 rooms inspired by typical Milanese design, art and culture. It has four gastronomic venues: the all-day Casa Brera Living lounge bar, the Scena haute cuisine Italian restaurant, the Etereo panoramic rooftop with a skybar and the traditional Odachi Japanese restaurant. Chef Andrea Berton, the consultant for the first three food & beverage hubs, helms the gastronomic offerings.
