48 hours in Milan: where to stay, dine and drink

Fashion, frescoes and the birthplace of the Negroni Sbagliato. A weekend in Milan planned from the Atlas.

Where to stay

The Four Seasons, in a 15th-century convent in the fashion quarter, or Palazzo Parigi, with its garden and grand spa.

Aperitivo where Milan has taken it since 1915: Camparino in Galleria, at the entrance of the Galleria with a view of the Duomo.

Dinner on the top floor of the Museum of Cultures at Enrico Bartolini al Mudec, Milan's only three-star restaurant.

Lunch at Seta at the Mandarin Oriental, between Brera and Via Montenapoleone.

For the last night, a giant goblet of Negroni Sbagliato at Bar Basso, where it was born, then Moebius, one of the best bars in the world.
