In a popular area with plenty of restaurants and cafes, and styled to perfection, you can tell this home is the passion project of an architect. The sleek apartment gets plenty of natural light thanks to several sets of French windows and includes some wonderful details like the antique mirror, the elegant dining table and the mood lighting in the bathroom (switch it to blue for an unforgettable shower). There's an open layout to the living space, with the modern kitchen cleverly divided from the rest of the room with wood slats, and we love the little balcony, accessed through the master bedroom. If you need to work from home, there's a desk in the second bedroom, along with daybeds that offer flexibility – perfect for a family.Step outside the home and you can hop on a tram that'll take you to the Duomo in just two stops, or walk into the city centre if you'd prefer. There's even a grocery shop just downstairs so life couldn't get muc...More Details

Warmth Within
Waves Hit The Shore
Warmth emanates from the furniture of Ephemeris, not so much due to luxury as to personality. There are little trinkets around the place, some coming from the family, others from markets. Most of this stuff is unique, and it’s been put together in a very careful, considered manner. The only real issue with Ephemeris is its lack of air conditioning. It’s designed to stay cool, and the structure of the building makes it very difficult to install, but it’s worth knowing about beforehand. *The kitchen is very small and doesn't really have a worktop*Because of the structure of the building, there's no air conditioning*The third guest will be on a sofa bed in the living room*The balcony is a Juliet balcony, so there's no space to sit BalconyBathrobesBreakfast IncludedBuzzer / Wireless IntercomCafetiereCentral HeatingCoffee MakerCooking EssentialsElectricity AdaptorsEspresso MachineExtra Pillows and BlanketsFanFirst Aid KitFree Parking On St...More Details
Despite its small size, this apartment packs in luxurious details, such as a marble bathroom, impressive chandelier and a stunning peaked ceiling painted in pale greens and gold. There’s also a fully equipped kitchen, so pick up some Italian produce and enjoy a freshly cooked meal round the wooden dining table, or eat alfresco on the patio. Tall French windows lead out onto pretty lawns and your own private lanai, where you can relax with a book, or pop open a bottle of locally sourced wine in the evening. The home is ideally located near Lake Como, with the lakeside town of Menaggio around a kilometre away. * The apartment is arranged as a studio, with only a sofa bed* While the kitchen is fully equipped, the space on the worktop is limited BathtubKitchen...More Details

Como From Above
On the edge of Brera and Garibaldi, Artemis is wonderfully placed for both the nightlife that fills the area, and for getting to other parts of the city. The flat has a sense of individuality to it – the design is sophisticated, with lots of beautiful objects that elevate it beyond what you might reasonably expect from a place of its size. It’s all fairly valuable, so for that reason the host, Rita, would prefer to rent to adults, or at least not young children. *Given the value of some of the things in the apartment, Rita would prefer not to have guests under twelve*There's a hoover available on request*Unfortunately, there's no dishwasher*The fridge is stocked with beverages ahead of your stay*The bathroom is stocked with Aesop and Kiehl's products*The longest stay available at the moment is one month*There's only one set of keys for this home*Luggage storage is free of charge where available – please enquire with your host in advanc...More Details

While the design of Orpington won’t make your heart flutter, there are other reasons it makes a good spot to stay. It’s a decent size, and the balcony is great for fresh air, even if it isn’t decked out with furniture. Above all though, Orpington is very good value for money, and you’ll struggle to find anything comparable in that budget so close to both CityLife and Sempione Park. *Even though there's a lift to reach the third floor, you'll still have to climb a short flight of stairs*The lamp in the living room is the only source of artificial light in there, and it's also hanging quite low, so watch your head when you stand up*There are no basic ingredients provided, and the kitchen lacks a kettle, toaster and coffee machine*The dishwasher door can come up against a cabinet door which can make opening it a little fiddly Air ConditioningBalconyBuzzer / Wireless IntercomCentral HeatingCoffee MakerCooking EssentialsDishwasherElectrici...More Details

What you see is what you get with Piccolino. It’s a tiny flat, and even having two people staying there might be too many (we have no idea what’s going on with the second bed, but it could be useful for storing suitcases), but what is there is very nice. We’re not talking designer furniture, but if it’s been thought through, as is the case here, there’s nothing necessarily wrong with stocking up at Ikea. The location is super vibrant and design buffs will particularly enjoy it. *You might not get an in-person check-in*There's no air conditioning, oven, or dishwasher*The decision to include a second bed above the first is genuinely perplexing*The main bed is only 140cm by 190cm, so it's not the largest*The shower's also only 190cm high – which should be fine for most, but tall people will notice Buzzer / Wireless IntercomCentral HeatingHair DryerKitchenLift AccessMicrowaveMultiple Sets of KeysNetflixRain ShowerTVWashing MachineWi-fi...More Details
