Six Senses has signed hotel management agreements with Gruppo Statuto to open two new properties in Italy.

Six Senses Milan is set to open in 2025, while Six Senses Lake Como will debut in 2028. 

Located in the heart of the artistic Brera quarter, the Milan property will be emblematic of local heritage and culture. Six Senses Milan will showcase the brand’s commitment to sustainability, which flows from the materials and furnishings to the dedicated Earth Lab, tranquil internal courtyard and specialty restaurant and deli featuring seasonal gastronomy. Of the 68 guestrooms, 15 are set to be suites, and two feature plunge pools. The property will also feature a spa, rooftop bar and sky pool.

Six Senses Lake Como meanwhile will continue the legacy of the first hospitality destination opened on the shores of Lake Como in 1820. Following a full restoration of Grand Hotel Cadenabbia on the lake’s western shores, the property will blend a resort lifestyle with the region’s rich heritage for a retreat situated amidst picturesque gardens. The number of guestrooms within the six-storey property will be significantly reduced to accommodate 102 generously-sized rooms and suites, as well as more space dedicated to the spa and wellness area. The outdoor pool and sun deck will be complemented by a floating pool on the lake. F&B venues will include a specialty restaurant, terrace bar and restaurant with lake views. 

“Italy moves you like nowhere else. In few places do art, architecture, gastronomy and the joy of living intertwine so effortlessly,” says Neil Jacobs, CEO of Six Senses. “Six Senses Milan and Six Senses Lake Como both speak to a purpose. The first is intentionally sized and designed for attentive hospitality and holistic wellness within one of Europe’s most dynamic fashion capitals. The second is a serene escape within the most beautiful lakeside gardens just 90 minutes away.”   

Giuseppe Statuto, owner of Gruppo Statuto, adds: “Gruppo Statuto has further strengthened its collaboration with Six Senses to bring the brand to renowned destinations. Following its success in Ibiza and Rome and its upcoming opening in London, Gruppo Statuto is delighted to announce two further historical buildings in iconic international addresses. The Gruppo Statuto Luxury Hotels portfolio is now a benchmark within the high-end hospitality segment, where Italy leads interests and investments, due to its history, culture and lifestyle.”
