Contemporary design for made-to-measure hospitality

The art of hospitality is like a tailor-made suit created specially for the pleasure of the wearer, a unique, original garment designed and sewn with great expertise. This same consummate skill can be seen in the hospitality of the Bed&Breakfast m2m Made to Measure in Milan, just a short walk from the train station and the city’s major attractions.
The secret to this personalised approach to hospitality is the ability to create comfortable, relaxing spaces where guests from anywhere in the world will feel at home, regardless of whether their trip is for business or leisure.
The atmosphere of M2M is one of refined tranquillity, enhanced by the white of the furnishings and the delicate, neutral colours of the porcelain tiles from Ceramiche Caesar’s Verse collection, chosen in a 30×60 cm size and colour Cloud. With its soft, natural surfaces and an essential choice of colours, textures and sizes, Verse is ceramic in its purest form. Chosen for its eclecticism, the collection lends a touch of style to the floors and walls in various areas of the B&B, including the guestrooms, bathrooms and the minimal chic common areas. The sophisticated Cloud colour makes a big contribution to the atmosphere, blending in harmoniously with the B&B’s contemporary style.
M2m is a new-generation Bed and Breakfast establishment that combines a modern architectural setting with a convenient central location in the heart of Milan. Situated on the first floor of an elegant residential building, the spacious guest rooms stand out for their sophisticated design and original furnishings. Nothing is left to chance, every detail having been meticulously crafted to create an authentic flavour, a strong sense of identity reminiscent of wearing a tailor-made suit. M2M offers all the ingredients of a relaxing stay, while the intentionally small number of rooms allows staff to look after guests with the utmost care and attention. The sober elegance of the décor complements the sophisticated contemporary architecture. The interiors of the rooms are painted white and grey, a colour that fits in perfectly with the hotel’s modern atmosphere. The common areas and private spaces are bright and roomy in keeping with this unique and highly original brand of hospitality.
The Bed and Breakfast m2m is a pearl of urban elegance, a space where guests can relax and truly feel at home. A high level of living comfort is achieved through the use of high-quality materials and simple geometric furnishings with contemporary, sculptural forms.
