Once the southern gateway to ancient Milan, Porta Romana still knows how to make an entrance. These days, it’s less marching legions and more stylish locals sipping spritzes – and this cosy apartment puts you right in the heart of it. The space is compact but homely, with a comfortable living area and a sofa bed for extra guests. You’re within easy reach of the city’s main sights, but it’s just as tempting to stay local and soak up the neighbourhood’s charm. After all, who needs the tourist trail when you’ve got a pasticceria on your doorstep?
