Treading the line between a hotel and a flat, Tarragon Garden gives the independence of the latter along with the services of the former. Along with a reception and daily cleaning, there's the independence of a self-contained flat with its own small kitchen. Elegantly furnished and set within a gorgeous period building, it's far from the sterile, all-white flats we see all too often. If you're after history and character, this place has it in spades. We love the open-plan living space, with its high, ornate ceilings and fresh green walls. It's dotted with vintage art and antique furniture, and there's a huge rug adding plenty of colour to the proceedings. There's no escaping the fact that the kitchen is small and simple, but it's more than enough if you're here on a short break, using the place as a base to explore the city. And our favourite spot is by the window in the bedrooms, with its view out over the pretty courtyard. Here you'll be right in Montenapoleone, a super location for the fashion industry, and all the main attractions are within walking distance.

Local guide
About Quadrilatero (Fashion District)
The Quadrilatero (Fashion District) is a super-fancy shopping area in the historical centre. The main drag, Via Monte Napoleone, is lined with designer fashion boutiques, antique shops and glam cafes in neoclassical mansions. Nearby, the Palazzo Morando museum displays period costumes, while Renaissance-era decorative arts are on show in the Museo Bagatti Valsecchi. This is an extremely elegant part of town with grand houses and neighbours galore. If you want a taste of the high life Milan-style, then look no further.
