Set in the shadow of the Torre Velasca is this sharp-looking hotel. Enter via the alabaster lobby where LED screens stream fashion shows and glide up to your gold-and-chocolate toned suite with floor-to-ceiling windows, king-sized bed and monsoon shower. Sure there’s a gym, spa and contemporary restaurant, but it’s the roof-terrace views that steal the show.
