An Aperitif Overlooking the City Skyline at the VIU, a 5-star Hotel with a Panoramic Terrace

If you are looking for a hotel with a panoramic terrace in Milan, you have come to the right place: Hotel VIU Milan, in the Paolo Sarpi area, is the only luxury hotel with a terrace that offers a 360° view of Milan. On one side, a breath-taking panorama hugging the mountain view, with the magnificent peak of Monte Rosa. On the other, the bustling city with the new landmarks of Milan’s architecture: The Vertical Forest, the Pirelli skyscraper, and Gae Aulenti Square. 

The VIU Terrace, on the eighth and top floor, is a special place to experience in every season and at any time of the day. During warmer months, its outdoor area is a remote working spot for hotel guests or a place to meet clients and colleagues. Of course, it is also the perfect location to just relax in the pool, The VIU Pool, where you can enjoy an aperitif at the end of the day. In wintertime, the indoor area, with its bright glass walls, hosts brunches and dinners, during which you can taste whimsical drinks and delicious snacks.
