Hotel VIU Milan, Italy

• Five-star city centre hideaway: As the city’s first ever five-star hotel with a rooftop pool, Hotel VIU Milan is sure to impress. Rooftop aside, the property is in one of the best spots in town; in the up-and-coming Porta Volta, just a short walk from the shopping district of Corso Como and the historic city centre.

• Home from home: On the accommodations front, the rooms feature high-end décor, clean lines, neutral hues and floor-to-ceiling windows affording plenty of natural light. Add to the mix high-tech gadgetry, stunning marble-clad bathrooms and furniture by esteemed Italian design company Molteni & C, and may never want to leave.

• Michelin-quality dining: What's more, the wining and dining here is just as impressive – especially Morelli, overseen by Michelin-starred Chef Giancarlo Morelli. After dinner, head to the stylish Bulk Mixology Lounge Bar and Garden for a drink or a DJ set. Elsewhere, you can also enjoy a state-of-the-art fitness centre with Technogym equipment, a lovely spa with treatment rooms and a chic outdoor pool with 360-degree views of the city skyline.
