CHECKING IN
In a black-and-white photograph, Simone Giorgi, wearing a suit, grins and looks into the distance.

Simone Giorgi, general manager of Park Hyatt Milano and winner of the 2024 Hotelier of the Year award at Virtuoso Travel Week, shares what he’s been loving lately.

 

Packing: Being Italian, I have a great passion for clothing, and I travel in style. I always wear made-to-measure Sartorio, Loro Piana loafers, and my Omega Speedmaster.

Watching: One Life. Anthony Hopkins plays Nicholas Winton, a proponent of Operation Kindertransport, which moved more than 600 Jewish children out of Czechoslovakia before the start of World War II.

Reading: My last read was Luxury Food, a clever book about luxury in gastronomy.

Dreaming of: Thailand and Mexico.
