The Armani Hotel Milano captures that ideal combination of elegance and simplicity that defines the Armani style.

In the heart of Milan’s fashion district, Armani Hotel Milano is situated within the austere and powerful exterior of the palazzo at Via Manzoni. Every element of the 95 rooms and suites has been personally designed by Giorgio Armani and chosen for its sculptural, aesthetic and sensual qualities. When it opened almost five years ago, it immediately followed the success of the Armani Hotel Dubai, located in Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building.

Innovative and elegant, contemporary and essential, the Michelin-starred Armani/Ristorante combines the excellence of the Italian taste with diversions into world cuisines.

Sharp and clean lines, natural colours with shades of gray and sand, and a magnificent panoramic view of the skyline of Milan from the Duomo Cathedral to the futuristic skyscrapers in Porta Nuova – these are the unmistakable features that characterise the space of the Armani/ Ristorante.

An exclusive wine bar, a private dining room and the Armani/Bamboo Bar complete the ambience – an elegant setting with a high visual impact, overlooking via Manzoni and Piazza Croce Rossa, made unique by the double height ceiling (six and a half metres) and by the immense windows equipped with louvres.

Backlit onyx elements, furniture and gentle background music create the perfect atmosphere to enjoy a casual lunch or an aperitif before dinner, not to mention the cocktail parties and after-dinner live music entertainment.

Culinary experimentation and a constant search for perfection form the basis of the Armani/ Ristorante cuisine. It harmoniously combines technique, style and tasting experience. The dishes are light and contemporary and able to surprise while retaining a discreet elegance.

The menu at Armani/Ristorante is measured in every detail, never excessive, reflecting Giorgio Armani’s philosophy. Both dinner and business lunch menus are in constant evolution. New menu variations are also offered during the Sunday brunch, which can be enjoyed in the Armani/Ristorante and in the Armani/Bamboo Bar, featuring thematic food corners, as well as light or vegetarian options.

The wine list at Armani/Ristorante is extensive and designed to best accompany any tasting experience. At the heart of the selection, of course, is the best of the Made in Italy brand: full-bodied, intense and balanced wines representing the many facets of the country, from north to south.

The most prestigious French wines such as Champagne, Burgundy and Bordeaux, are featured in special years and formats. In the comprehensive “wines from the world” section, Spain, South Africa, Argentina, the United States, Australia and New Zealand stand out. To complete the range, biological and biodynamic, unusual and sophisticated wines are also on the list, together with some precious vertical selections of Italian and foreign “historic years”, with well-structured whites and reds.

A continuously evolving list, which harmoniously accompanies the Armani/Ristorante’s tasting experience.
