L'Estate Italiana

Italy comes to life under the summer sun, endless days setting the scene for open-air living and sensory delights. The mood is effortless, a celebration of light and life, long days spent with those closest to you, absorbing the warmth and conviviality of L’Estate Italiana, or the Italian Summer.

Now, the easy elegance of its sunlit piazzas and coastal breezes comes to Milan via new seasonal offerings at Bvlgari Hotel Milano. Created with award-winning Roman Chef Pier Daniele Seu, Pizza Bar - Pier Daniele Seu combines craft with conviviality, while Il Gelato invites guests to try handcrafted ice creams created by Michelin-starred Chef Niko Romito. Each ritual invites guests to gather in the spirit of togetherness, and partake in the time-tested pleasures of summer in Italy, even in the heart of its most cosmopolitan city.

The art of pizza

An authentic reimagination of one of Italy’s most-loved traditions, the collaboration between Bvlgari Hotel Milano and award-winning Chef Pier Daniele Seu brings the pleasure of pizza to destinations around the world. Crafted with the finest Italian ingredients and made with a dough that takes some 30 hours to mature, each pizza is emblematic of the Italian art of living. Created to be shared amongst friends and family, the menu reflects contemporary and traditional creations. The collaboration is a celebration of Rome's most-loved export, evenings that stretch long past sunset, and those sublime moments where tradition, excellence, and simple joys intersect.
