Nhow Milan


If you are looking for a fun, modern and colorful hotel to stay in while in Milan, then Nhow is your perfect match.  It feels like something that is right out of "The Jetson's".  The lobby is enclosed in glass with plastic furniture and artwork from local designers that is extremely hip. (apparently it is all rotating, so you might never see the same stuff).  The upper floors are very cool.  The walls look like one big Jackson Pollack painting, and the door to your room is simply part of it.  

The rooms themselves are modern and shiek with a brown and orange décor and lighting that would be appropriate for even the hippest downtown scene.  Although be careful not to hit the button that shuts off all the lights or your friend (Skye) might just end up taking a luxurious shower in the dark and yelling for you to turn the lights back on while you remain dry, in bed and in fits of laughter.  (I thought it was funnier than she did). 

After our dinner at Il Nodo we went and had drinks at the bar and had a lovely dessert.  I wasn’t sure from the pictures on line if we were going to get a bed in the shape of lips or a cloud, or if it would be cool or cheesy, but I risked and came out a winner with Nhow.   It was a fun change from all our other accommodations in Italy and it seemed rather appropriate for Milan.
