The Magna Pars Suites is housed in a former perfume factory, and the hotel pays homage to the building’s past with an olfactory theme, such as rooms characterized by smells, artworks illustrating botanical perfume ingredients, and perfume samples for sale in the lobby. Guests are greeted with an opulent experience as soon as they step past the glass facade and into the open-air lobby. Parts of the brightly lit space resemble an outdoor terrace with dark-wood patio flooring and a large sheet providing shade. The lobby can be quite cold during the winter, though the hotel tries to accommodate with heaters. Exposed vents, wooden slatted or brick walls, and thick silver wires create an overall industrial-chic decor throughout, while an emphasis on white furnishings contribute to a modern and sleek vibe. The restaurant, by contrast, has a darker color scheme, with dark-brown wood-paneled walls and wooden floors. The modern chairs are brown or gray with pops of colors in orange or purple pillows, booths, and/or place settings. There's seating on an outdoor patio in the hotel’s wild and natural garden. The luxurious rooftop deck has white canopies providing shade to comfy white couches and sunbeds. Couples and business guests make up the majority of the clientele.

The hotel is located in Via Tortona, Milan’s creative fashion district, filled with artists and designers of all sorts. There’s a number of restaurants, cafes, and bars on the surrounding streets. Just a 15-minute walk takes travelers to the Naviglio Grande canal, a historic and romantic canal in a pedestrian-friendly neighborhood. The Santa Maria delle Grazi -- where Leonardo Da Vinci’s “Last Supper” is on display -- is a long 21-minute walk away. But the hotel is far from the city center and attractions such as Sforzesco Castle or the Duomo di Milano, though both can be reached by public transportation in 14 and 18 minutes, respectively. The Milano Porta Genova train station, a bus stop, and a tram stop are all a four-minute walk away, while the Porta Genova metro station takes five minutes on foot to reach. Linate Airport is a 28-minute drive away.

Rooms at this property are called “Suites,” though most aren’t necessarily suites, but lavish residences that align with the ultra-modern chic style of the hotel. Rooms range in size, and each is characterized by a different perfumery note such as fruity or woody. The paintings found above the beds were created by students at the Brera Academy and reflect each suite’s particular fragrance element. All rooms have dark-wood floors and white walls, linens, and furniture. Subtle elements of color appear with a red leather divan here or a blue leather pullout sofa there, plus brown leather chairs for the white blocky, IKEA-esque tables and desks. There’s floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the garden and partial walls to partition the beds from sitting areas (in rooms that have them). All rooms are outfitted with air-conditioning, minibars, coffee- and tea-making facilities, free bottled water, and flat-screen TVs. Upper-level rooms have 3D flat-screen TVs (Junior Suites do not), while the Presidential Suite includes Technogym cardio equipment. LCD screens manage temperature and international sockets are convenient for guests from around the world. Bathrooms are overwhelmingly white and bright, with marble or porcelain vessel sinks, large mirrors, bidets, and back-lit walk-in rainfall showers or separate showers and tubs. Robes and Aqua Adornationis toiletries add to the opulent ambiance.  

Despite being a smallish boutique hotel, the Magna Pars Suites manages to offer numerous top-notch facilities, including a small spa with a sauna and massage services. The modern gym has four cardio machines, a few kettlebells, and a weightlifting pulley system. Each morning, the hotel serves a breakfast (included in the room rates), which can be taken on the outdoor terrace during warm months. The Da Noi In serves Italian fare made from seasonal ingredients for lunch and dinner, while the Liquidambar (a bar with late hours) serves light snacks and has an extensive wine menu. Room service is available during limited hours. The library room and the rooftop terrace provide two scenic and chic areas to lounge, grab a book, or have a drink. Business travelers can make use of the one fully equipped meeting room, and there's a public computer in the lobby and free hotel-wide Wi-Fi. Valet parking is available for a fee.
