Château Monfort Milan

Château Monfort brings a fairy-tale setting to the heart of Milan. A short distance from the Duomo (Cathedral) and the Teatro alla Scala, from San Babila and Palazzo Reale, a flash of enlightenment came about in the form of an Urban Château, fusing modern and timeless features.

The elegant dwelling from the early 20th century, an Art Nouveau jewel decoreted by architect Paolo Mezzanotte, welcomes you into a visionary atmosphere.

Lose yourself amongst the scenographic installations of our rooms, inspired by fairy-tales and operas; relax in the magical Spa Amore & Psiche; fall in love under the crystal dome of our Lounge Bar Mezzanotte or amongst our Executive Chef’s exceptional dishes.

Château Monfort is part of the Relais & Châteaux family.

THE HISTORY
The hotel was born in a magnificent Liberty building from the early-20th century, decoreted by Paolo Mezzanotte, architect of the historic headquarters of Borsa Italiana, Italy’s Stock Exchange in Milan.

Château Monfort has been completely restored, following the precise enhancement and restoration designs in respect of the original architecture features from 1903.

From the outside, today it looks almost like a finely-decorated treasure chest, whilst the interiors bear a modern and imitable design as the result of a careful iconographic study on fairy-tale, lyric and ballet repertoires, evoked with a contemporary touch to create an utterly charming atmosphere.

The neo-Romantic style is comprised of enchanted gardens, mysterious secrets and fairy-tale interiors. Since opening its doors in 2013, Château Monfort has been the only hotel in Milan that Relais & Château has selected for its collection of charming hotels and gourmet restaurants.

LOCATION
Château Monfort overlooks Piazza Tricolore, located in one of the most elegant areas of Milan: the Monforte district, which stretches behind Piazza San Babila, not far from the Duomo, Palazzo Reale, Teatro La Scala, Via Montenapoleone and the boutiques of the famed fashion district.

The Milanese night life awaits you just outside your Château, in an area rich in bars and cocktail lounges, to celebrate the ritual of the Milanese happy hour and beyond. Château Monfort is 6 kilometres from the Milan-Linate Airport and 10 minutes’ walk from the Porta Venezia train station and the San Babila metro stop.
