For models, designers, even hotels, it's not easy to break through in trendsetting Milan. But two new properties have made an impression. The Town House Galleria (8 Via Silvio Pellico; 011-39-02-8905-8297; townhousegalleria.it) is perfectly placed within the city's prestigious "fashion triangle"; though its twenty-four suites start at around $1,000 a night, the hotel has been almost fully booked since it opened, a year ago, no doubt thanks to its anything-is-possible service (every room comes with a private butler).
The Chedi Milan (double rooms from $350; 24 Via Villapizzone; 011-39-02-363-1888; thechedimilan.com) began welcoming guests in the spring of 2007, before its glossy spa was complete and its service was up to par. Now, at last, the hotel is hitting its stride: the Asian-inspired look and sensual bar made the Chedi a design-cognoscenti darling during Milan's annual hot-ticket furniture fair.
