BUSINESS TRAVEL THE PARK HYATT MILAN has an expansive Presidential Suite. Shown here is its Salon. PARK HY TT MILAN A Business travelers venturing to Milan, perhaps fashionistas traversing the Atlantic for next season’s fashion shows, should consider the Park Hyatt Milan (www.milan.park.hyatt.com) as their base. Though business travelers usually book standard rooms at the property, which is only steps away from the Piazza del Duomo and Teatro alla Scala opera house, luxury travel advisors should suggest the Terrace Suites on the top floor. The rooms offer the best views, particularly of the Duomo. Note: The Presidential Suite (No. 601) and Diplomatic Suite (No. 605) are further luxe options. Of course, each room is fitted with the business traveler necessity: high-speed wired and wireless Internet. Rooms also boast Bang & Olufsen satellite TVs and a full range of bathroom products by Laura Tonatto. Luxury travel advisors are advised to contact Alessandra Ruggeri (alessandra. ruggeri@hyatt.com; 011-39-028821-1234) with all questions regarding accommodations. Note: The hotel advises year-out bookings for some periods such as April’s Furniture Fair and the Formula 1 Grand Prix and Woman’s Fashion Week, both of which take place in September. (There is also a Woman’s Fashion Week in February.) The head concierge at Park Hyatt Milan, Mario Picozzi (mario.picozzi@hyatt.com), is truly the business traveler’s best friend. Our insider says he can satisfy every request and organize transfers and dinners for business travelers crunched by time. For special requests and VIPs, contact General Manager Claudio Ceccherelli (claudio.ceccherelli@ hyatt.com). Contacting the general manager might be best if your client is arriving with children, an emerging business travel trend. The hotel provides many in-room amenities for children, including soaps in animal shapes for bath time, kids’ slippers, toy racing cars and chocolate snacks. The property is also close to Milan’s aquarium and parks. Fly clients into Linate Airport, a 25-minute car ride to the hotel. Sedan or limousine pickup is available and can be arranged through Park Hyatt Milan’s concierge. — David Eisen THE 46 LUXURY TRAVEL ADVISOR | September 2008 http://www.milan.park.hyatt.com
