Hotel De La Ville Monza Small Luxury Hotel

Hotel De La Ville Monza Small Luxury Hotel

Ask for a room on the park side and Hotel De La Ville hands over something few Monza addresses can: a direct view of the Villa Reale, the eighteenth-century royal residence and its parkland, right across Viale Regina Margherita di Savoia. This is a small hotel, sixty-two rooms over three floors, run by the same Nardi family for four generations and carrying the Small Luxury Hotels of the World name rather than a corporate one. Rooms are non-smoking, individually decorated with heavy fabrics and artistic touches, and the Suite La Veranda goes further still, opening onto a private garden patio with a yellow Persian marble bathroom, its own garage and privileged access to the sauna and lounge. Downstairs, the multi award-winning Derby Grill, run by chef Fabio Silva, serves lunch and dinner Tuesday through Saturday, while the bar handles everything else. There is a gym, a sauna, free bicycle rental for the park, and a conference hall for anyone who cannot fully leave work behind. The hotel sits in one of Monza's most prestigious residential areas, a short walk from the pedestrian center and sixteen kilometers from Milan Central Station. It suits a traveler drawn to the restaurant and the family running the reception desk, not someone who wants a rooftop bar or a city-center address. Pets are not allowed, so that decision is made for you. What stays with you afterward is the quiet, and the sense that Monza, not Milan, got the better address. Hotel De La Ville looks onto the Villa Reale park from one of Monza's most prestigious streets, run by the Nardi family for four generations under the Small Luxury Hotels of the World name. Sixty-two rooms, an award-winning restaurant, a sauna and gym, but no pets, no city-center address.
