Nightlife in Milan

North of the city centre, a stone’s throw from Porta Garibaldi and Piazza Gae Aulenti, lies one of Milan’s most beloved districts: Isola. Once a working-class area, today it is a mix of street art, design, creative workshops, bistros, cocktail bars and live music.

Staying in northern Milan at Residence Zara allows you to experience the city like a local, in an authentic and convenient setting.
