Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This apartment places you in the heart of Milan. You’ll be able to stroll to many of the city’s must-sees, with the Duomo, Sforzesco Castle, and the Opera House all within a ten-minute walk. The home itself centres around an open-plan living area where you can cook, dine, and relax. You’ve also got a small private balcony here – perfect for watching the world go by as you sip a morning espresso. While this place isn’t suitable for under 2s, we think it’s ideal for a family with older children, or two couples, wanting a comfortable pad in a central spot.

Home truths
While older children are welcome, this home isn't suitable for children under the age of two.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
As is common in Italy, the toilet is separate from the bathroom in the second bathroom.
Two additional guests can be accommodated on the sofa bed in the living area, with prior approval from your host.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
Guests are asked to keep noise to a minimum between the hours of 10pm and 9am.
This home is within a congestion charge zone, so we recommend exploring on foot or sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.

Local guide
About Cinque Vie
Cinque Vie (meaning 'five streets') is a tiny area in the historic heart of Milan (just west of the Duomo) and the structure of the streets remains unchanged since Roman times. Take a walk and stumble upon ancient the Roman ruins, museums, cloisters, courtyards and beautiful churches of an undiscovered Milan. These charming, narrow streets are home to some of the city’s best shops, antique shops, and galleries. As well as being steeped in history, Cinque Vie is also extremely photogenic and is definitely ready for its Instagram close-up!

Host
This home is managed by Laura
This home is managed by a business on behalf of its owner. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Laura used to work for Italian MTV, but these days she and a couple of friends look after several apartments in the city – all right in the centre. With such a professional approach, you might think that she’d come across as a bit managerial, but in fact, the opposite is true – there’s a real personal touch to the whole operation.
