Speronari Suites - A hidden gem in the heart of Milan.
Speronari Suites offers the perfect blend of glamorous vibes paired with a cosmopolitan ambiance. Originally from the mid-19th century, this six-level boutique hotel opened in 2019 with 22 suite-only rooms, a SoulSauna by Finnish experts Starpool, and a fitness center with Technogym equipment. Angus Fiori Architects and interior designer Francesca Attolini created a contemporary Italian design that has become an exclusive destination for luxury in the heart of Milan. Just outside is the famous Duomo Cathedral and Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, Italy's oldest shopping gallery. Charming boho streets line the former artisan neighborhood for a cozy welcome among the bakeries and restaurants. El Porteno is an acclaimed bistro within Speronari Suites that offers a gourmet culinary experience complete with chef-inspired cuisines of ethnic flavors along with prestigious white and red labels.
Room Review
Our Recommendation
Our favorite was the Duplex Suite. The Duplex Suite offers luxe furnishings within a spacious setting, perfect for remote workers during an extended stay. The Executive Suite is ideal if you want outdoor space without having to leave the property. Finally, we recommend the Deluxe Suite for those seeking elite comfort in downtown Milan.
Breakfast, Bar, and Restaurant Review
El Porteno is a gourmet restaurant located on the ground floor of Speronari Suites. Angus Fiori Architects made a masterpiece, complete with vintage charm. The red velvet curtains and classic Argentinian interior design create a romantic atmosphere, perfect for a date night. This renowned restaurant even serves breakfast. There is also a bar located inside and a stunning wine display. Indoor and outdoor seating is available; the friendly staff opens the doors during the day with lovely views of the cosy street.

Fitness Center and Sauna
We have to mention the elite fitness center and sauna. The fitness center is small but very nice with Technogym equipment and machinery -- a cutting-edge, high-quality brand. The state-of-the-art SoulSauna by Starpool comes from Finnish technology for a fantastic experience.
Location
The Speronari Suites location is in the heart of Milan. Find more details here. Two of the most well-known landmarks are just a two-minute walk from this boutique hotel, which sits on a calm, narrow street alongside a few bistro cafes and restaurants. Enjoy views of the Duomo Cathedral from your suite or a nearby rooftop bar.
Final Thoughts
Are you longing for a romantic escape or a trip with close friends? The Speronari Suites is a quiet, serene spot that still offers a vibrant atmosphere, close to high-end shops like Gucci, Prada, Dior, and more. Being close to significant landmarks is a huge plus because you can walk everywhere. However, it is super easy to jump in a taxi if you want to travel to another area in Milan. With eight different suites to choose from, everyone will fall in love with at least one of these beautifully designed rooms. We highly recommend staying here -- and can't wait to come back!
