Six Senses Hotels Resorts Spas has signed new management agreements with Gruppo Statuto to open two luxury properties in Italy: Six Senses Milan and Six Senses Lake Como. These additions follow the successful launch of Six Senses Rome in 2023, further strengthening the brand’s presence in Europe.

The Milan property will open in 2025, located in the vibrant Brera district, known for its rich artistic and cultural heritage. It will feature 68 guest rooms, including 15 suites, two of which will have private plunge pools. Guests can enjoy a rooftop bar, sky pool, state-of-the-art spa, and a specialty restaurant with seasonal menus. Sustainability remains a priority, with eco-friendly design elements and an Earth Lab to promote environmental awareness.

Set to open in 2028, Six Senses Lake Como will occupy the restored Grand Hotel Cadenabbia on the lake’s western shores. The hotel will offer 102 rooms and suites, emphasizing wellness with an expansive spa and outdoor pools, including a floating pool on the lake. Dining options will include a terrace restaurant with panoramic lake views, perfect for romantic occasions.

Neil Jacobs, CEO of Six Senses, shared his excitement for these new projects: “Italy moves you like nowhere else. In few places do art, architecture, gastronomy, and the joy of living intertwine so effortlessly. Six Senses Milan and Six Senses Lake Como both speak to a purpose—the first offering attentive hospitality in a fashion hub, and the second providing a serene escape by the lake.”

Gruppo Statuto, already a key partner with Six Senses, owns several other properties, including Six Senses Rome, London, and Ibiza. Giuseppe Statuto, Founder of Gruppo Statuto, said, “Our collaboration with Six Senses reflects our shared ambition to deliver exceptional experiences. Italy’s history, culture, and lifestyle make it an ideal location for our continued investments in luxury hospitality.”

IHG Hotels & Resorts, the parent company of Six Senses, continues to grow its Luxury & Lifestyle portfolio across Europe, with Italy playing a central role. These two new properties are part of IHG’s strategy to meet the rising demand for wellness-oriented travel experiences that combine sustainability and luxury.
