Paolo Tirelli, Hotel Manager, voco Milan-Fiere, commented:
“We are excited to be the first voco hotel in Italy and bring a new hotel offering to Milan. Originating from Latin, the name ‘voco’ means ‘to invite’ or ‘call together’ and that is exactly what our hotel offers guests – access to an abundance of work and meeting spaces at the same time as an array of onsite facilities and amenities for that much needed me time.”
voco Milan-Fiere has two vibrant restaurant and bar outlets on the ground floor where guests can relax, be themselves, feel the warmth of the voco hosts and enjoy a slice of ‘voco life’. The OnFire Grill & Lounge focuses on locally-sourced and seasonal ingredients, cooked on an open grill – the main focal point of the restaurant. Ludico Drinks, Food & Play is a lounge area with an all-day menu, an excellent cocktail menu and a gaming area complete with a pool table, electronic dartboards, multi-game video machines and much more, allowing guests to wind down after a long day. For those in need of some much needed ‘me time’, the hotel has a fully equipped fitness room, a wellness area with an indoor pool, sauna and Turkish bath.
