Umberto place is THE hidden gem in Milan: the place is just a few steps from Duomo and Cordusio (aka Starbucks Reserve), yet in a classy and private square, with an almost hidden entry gate that ensure the wow effect, if you have guests. The location is celebrated in several movies, so might be worth to take time and find out who was acting in the corner of the square where you just walked. The place itself is amazing: spotless clean, perfect WiFi, and if you don't want the anonimity and standardization of major 5* hotels, here will find a touch of old Milan. The place is protected by the Italian Ministry for Art (aka Belle Arti) so it can't and won't change - which means you might experience a tiny elevator to get up to your 5th floor jacuzi-ensuited house, yet I can confirm that I've been testimonial of more romantic kisses in that elevator than in every Sheraton, Hilton or Ritz I ever visited
