Marriott International’s luxury brand The Luxury Collection has expanded its portfolio in Europe with the addition of Casa Brera Hotel in Milan, Italy.

The hotel is the outcome of a restoration of the historic Rationalists building, which was carried out by architect Pietro Lingeri.

Curated by architect Patricia Urquiola, the property's design pays homage to Rationalist architecture while infusing the local Milanese style.

The Luxury Collection vice-president and global brand leader Bruce Rohr said: “The debut of Casa Brera, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Milan marks a pivotal milestone in our continued expansion in Europe.

“This spectacular property, blending timeless Milanese elegance with contemporary luxury, provides an ideal setting for global explorers to experience the city’s charm and artistic spirit in true style.”

Casa Brera's 101 guest rooms and 15 suites feature modular Poliform furniture and custom artworks, and range from Deluxe and Premiere rooms to the Presidential Milanese Suite, which has a living room, dining area, and two connecting terraces.

Marriott International Europe, Middle East and Africa Luxury Brands vice-president Helen Leighton said: “Casa Brera, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Milan is an exciting addition to the brand’s portfolio, further enhancing our presence in one of Europe’s most dynamic and stylish cities.

“Milan is a city renowned for its rich history, fashion, and design, and Casa Brera, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Milan reflects the city’s unique spirit and sophisticated style. We look forward to welcoming global explorers to this exceptional property.”

Similar to its sister properties, Casa Brera participates in the Marriott Bonvoy global travel programme.

The Luxury Collection features more than 115 hotels and resorts across 40 countries and territories.
