Minor has expanded its portfolio of Avani Hotels
in Europe with the opening of a property in both Spain and Italy.
The Avani Alonso Martínez (pictured) and Avani Palazzo
Moscova are located in the vibrant cities of Madrid and Milan,
respectively.
Situated just steps away from the iconic central
square that shares its name, the architectural gem that is now the
Avani Alonso Martínez dates back to 1919 and features a
captivating century-old façade adorned with wrought-iron
balconies.
Facilities at the 101-room hotel include an
all-day deli, a gym with cardio machines and weights that is open
from 7am to 11pm, and a variety of meeting and event spaces.
Guests of the hotel can unlock the destination
with an innovative series of experiences, from thrilling Segway
adventures to lesser-known spots that take in some of the city’s
most notable murals and graffiti displays, to picturesque picnics
on the sprawling lawns of Retiro Park.

In addition, guests can unleash their inner artist
at Wine Gogh, a glow-in-the-dark painting workshop that entices
both locals and tourists to come together to craft their personal
masterpieces with neon paint. All the while, they can sip local
wines and surrender to the rhythm of an eclectic soundtrack,
igniting their artistic inspiration.
For foodies, private dinners held in hidden
galleries and studios offer a chance to taste authentic Spanish
dishes in an artistic ambiance.
Avani makes its Italian debut in the vibrant city
of Milan, perfectly positioned between two bustling districts:
Porta Nuova, celebrated for its futuristic skyscrapers, and Corso
Como, renowned for its nightlife, the Avani Palazzo Moscova is
housed within a neoclassical building that once stood as the
city's first railway station, envisioned by the esteemed engineer
Giulio Sarti, Avani Palazzo Moscova exudes timeless charm.
Avani Palazzo Moscova features a choice of 65 rooms and suites,
a pantry, seafood restaurant, gym, and an AmaTi Spa, located
within the captivating confines of the original vaults of the
former railway station, that boasts a number of private treatment
rooms, a sauna, hammam and a jacuzzi.
Guest experiences range from “nonna approved” pasta making
classes with a local chef, to a tour of the city
aboard a meticulously restored 1971 Fiat 500 that brings movie set
magic to life.
For fashionistas, there is a private shopping tour
with desired items and preferences taken in advance to ensure a
truly personalised experience, as well as an Instagram-inspired
photo shoot that captures the essence of the historic city centre.
These exciting new openings mark Avani's expansion
in the European market, with additional properties set to launch
in key cities across Italy and Germany in the coming months, and
Netherlands in 2024.
In addition, Avani will make its entrance into
South and Central America later this year with upcoming hotels in
Colombia and Mexico.
