(27/10/22) Rosewood has signed a management agreement with Gruppo Statuto for a luxury hotel in Milan, Rosewood’s fourth property in Italy.
Scheduled to open in 2025, Rosewood Milan will be well situated on the edge of the Quadrilatero della Moda, the city’s fashion district, just steps away from the famous shopping boulevard Via Montenapoleone which is lined with iconic luxury boutiques, antique shops and bustling cafés.
With 70 rooms, including approximately 20 suites, the property will encompass the historic and iconic Palazzo Branca and Palazzo della Banca Commerciale built in the 19th century and formerly home to the Italian Commercial Bank.

“We are thrilled to partner with a brand such as Rosewood to bring these historic buildings back to life,” said Giuseppe Statuto, Chairman of Gruppo Statuto. “By merging our shared experiences and philosophies, we know this hotel will become an immediate icon of high hospitality in Milan, a trend-setting city that increasingly stands out in the world as an unmissable destination for international travelers and locals alike.”
Rosewood Milan will be home to a bar and restaurant with a courtyard and garden, as well as an Asaya wellness facility with three treatment rooms, an indoor pool and fitness center.
The renowned Parisian firm Studio K.O. will oversee the design.
“This development comes with great excitement as we continue our growth in Europe and Italy specifically,” said Sonia Cheng, chief executive officer at Rosewood Hotel Group. “Rosewood continues to expand to destinations where we know our ‘affluential explorer’ guests want to travel. With all its culture and vitality, Milan ticks all the boxes for a Rosewood urban location and it will round out our portfolio of global fashion capitals where Rosewood has a presence, including our iconic properties in New York, Paris and London.”
The hotel in Milan follows Rosewood’s recent signings in Rome and Venice. The three projects will join Rosewood’s Italian estate resort, Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco in Tuscany.
