Grand Hotel Villa Torretta
Curio Collection's Grand Hotel Villa Torretta Milan Sesto set to open in Milan
Hilton (NYSE: HLT) has signed a franchise agreement with GdF Hotel Srl to open Grand Hotel Villa Torretta Milan Sesto, Curio Collection by Hilton. The hotel will open later this year and joins two Curio Collection by Hilton hotels in Italy, including properties already operating in Rome and Tuscany.
The hotel will be situated in a 16th century villa which was once the country retreat of Milanese aristocrats. Many of the renaissance building's historic features were restored in an extensive renovation in 2002, including priceless frescos which now adorn the hotel's public areas and some of its 77 guest rooms and suites.
Before opening later this year, the hotel will undergo further refurbishments, including guest room enhancements and the addition of a fitness centre. Once open, guests will enjoy the hotel's restaurant, bar and business centre, while meeting and events facilities will be available for business guests and weddings.
