Maison Moschino: Fashionable Fantasy Accommodations In Italy

You are probably familiar with the Moschino fashion brand and their three lines; Moschino, Moschino Love and Moschino Cheap and Chic.

But did you know they had a new and beautiful hotel in which you can stay? The Maison Moschino had it's formal opening in February of this year. In case you don't plan on popping over to Italy anytime soon, I'm going to show you some of their unusual and fantastical room and suite designs along with other images of the hotel.




The hotel is located in the old neoclassical railway station on Viale Monte Grappa, 12, that opened in 1840 for the Milan-Monza route. The hotel’s creative direction is led by Rossella Jardini and Moschino’s creative team.




The exterior facades were restructured to be faithful to the original structure, while the interior was completely interpreted in the Moschino style. Divided into four floors, the 65 rooms and junior suites are all different. On the ground floor, the hall and the bar welcome guests into the hotel.



The common thread connecting the rooms is a fairy tale theme. Whimsical and magical elements reminiscent of Enchanted Forests and children's favorites like Alice In Wonderland, Little Red Riding Hood and Candyland are the themes of some of the rooms.

Forest room:


Alice's room:

Half-A-Room:

Little Red Riding Hood Room:

Sweet Room:



Walls climbing with ivy, beds covered in roses or ribbons and surreal hanging clouds can be found in various rooms, like those shown below.

Ivy room:

Life is a Bed of Roses room:

Ribbon room:

Clouds room:


Others have touches such as ballgown beds, ornate headboards, mystery keys, and color themes to give each room a dream-like fantasy feel:

Sleeping In A Ballgown rooms:


Zzzzzzz room:

The Shadows room:


The Luxurious Attic room:

The Gold room:

The Wallpaper room:

The Blue room:


The hotel interior, lobby and restaurant reflect Moschino’s distinctive style where the ordinary world is painted with a brush of surrealism.




The hotel also has a restaurant and a spa. The restaurant Clandestino Milano extends from the hall to the terrace, the Culti spa and the gym are located on the lower levels.

The restaurant menu proposes a selection of innovative dishes starting from breakfast: the delicious “Mos kit”, for instance, represents a culinary itinerary. It is offered in a choice of 4, 6 or 8 combinations and served in a precious box that humorously reminds of an elegant shoe box. “Mos kit” changes every day according to the seasons and to our chef’s different inspirations.



Irony is the theme that inspires Maison Moschino’s lunch menu and its aperitif, served as a toothbrush with an edible mint and coconut toothpaste and a saké and mint flavoured “mouthwash”.



The restaurant Clandestino Milano is open 7 days a week. Room service is available from 7 am until midnight. Cocktails and aperitifs are offered at the bar.

Maison Moschino is centrally located and within easy reach of the transport system. You can get to the nearest underground station, Porta Garibaldi (green line), in just five minutes by foot.



The green line is directly linked to the Cadorna station, where the MALPENSA EXPRESS shuttle leaves for Malpensa International Airport.

The hotel has some amazing special offers, tours and exclusive packages for design, theater and art lovers. See the packages here.
