Refurbished in collaboration with interior designer Pierre-Yves Rochon, both luxury suites are located in the Hotel’s casa ringhiera wing, arranged around open balconies that overlook a glass-covered atrium.
The Hotel’s prestigious Royal Suite occupies the entire fifth floor of Four Seasons Hotel Milano, within Rochon’s luxury apartment style private sanctum.
“We tried to give a intimate residential feeling to the Royal Suite by adding a library and marrying together different styles of furniture like people do in private apartments,” says the designer.
With light beige, silvery and white tones, the suite’s apartment-style layout flows from one zone to another. A white leather partition discreetly divides the bedroom area from a cozy lounge space. The bed is now positioned to face the suite’s step-out balcony that offers views across the neoclassical rooftops of Milan.
Floral fabrics decorate the sitting and reading room with a fireplace that overlooks a private terrace and garden, featuring Mediterranean plants. The kitchenette is equipped with temperature-controlled wine refrigerators and a comprehensive range of facilities food preparation. Accessible by a dedicated lift, the Royal Suite can be connected via a private internal staircase to a Premium Room and an Executive Suite on the floor below to become either a two or three bedroom residence.
Showcasing a contemporary look, the Fashion Suite (Suite 444) on the fourth floor of the Hotel is a study in bold design and colour. Rochon selected a bright kelly green with black and white accents for the suite’s palette.
“When I chose the furniture for the Fashion Suite I wanted to remain in the spirit of the 50s and 60s with pieces by Saarinen with strong lines and an intense green colour,” Rochon explains.
In contrast, an enveloping green armchair and pouf is positioned on a graphic black and white rug, joined by lacquered black furniture and small grey veined marble tulip tables. Large french doors open up onto a long terrace bordered with hedges and a Knoll table and chairs fitted with cushions upholstered in a herringbone fabric.
Both the Royal Suite and the Fashion Suite were restyled as part of the Hotel’s ongoing room refurbishment project.
