Staying at Antiqua Brera has been a dream come true! This special gem is located directly in the heart of Milan. As we arrived we were warmly welcomed to a spotless environment. The decor is STUNNING. All of the furniture and art tell a story and are happily placed. It is so beautiful and unique. We enjoyed walking around admiring each piece. The kitchen is wide open and easily navigated as it is well stocked. That was really nice for the days that we wanted to cook at home. The bedroom is also very spacious and the bed is comfortable. Having lots of space to hang clothing was a major bonus! Two bathrooms were so convenient with plenty of storage. Incredible views from the apartment are beyond what I expected. Having the windows open and watching the vibrant area made us feel alive. It is truly the most beautiful district that exists in the city of Milan. I could go on all day just about the LOCATION. It is surrounded by art museums that are world renowned. Pinocotera de Brera – arguably the city’s most important art museum is just a few minutes walk away. The Teatro alla Scala, one of the principal opera houses of the world and the leading Italian house is a 10-15 walk away. Castello Sforza, Park Sempione, and the Duomo/Galleria are very close by as well. A little further past the castle is Santa Maria delle Grazie, home of Da Vinci’s famous Last Supper fresco. There are two grocery stores less than a minute walk. One has the vibe of a whole foods or health food options. The other has a large variety to choose from. Both were extremely convenient during our stay. Directly below there is a lovely restaurant for healthy and quick eats. I also wanted to mention the corner bakery and the fruit stand! YUM. There is a train stop only a few minutes walk away that is conveniently located. All around you are beautiful boutiques and high quality restaurants of all the food you could ever dream of ordering. Throughout our stay we always felt right at home. This is a very special and significant experience that we would gladly return to for many years to come.
