Milan’s seven star Town House Hotel has been given approval from Milan’s city council to expand its structure, using space previously used by staff from the La Scala opera house.
This would take the surface area from 1,540 sqaure metres to 2,200.
This means that the Town House hotel near La Galleria, will be able to open an entrance directly into the gallery, with a reception area.
To sweeten the deal, the city council will be able to use the conference room of the Town House hotel 10 times a year for free, and another 15 times at a “favourable price”, for meetings of international and national importance.
In addition, 50 council guests will be able to stay for free in the hotel, whose luxury has been fabled across the internet for a few months.
It appears that the Town House has also played a part in gaining Milan the title of Expo 2015.
The Bie inspectors stayed here when the competition had got down to the two competitors of Milan and Smirne.
