For those who come to Milan on business
After the fair,
sleep in the countryside.
A fifteenth-century residence thirty-five minutes from Rho Fiera. A short, always-flowing stretch of the Novara ring road, then all A4 motorway to the dedicated «Rho Fiera» exit.
You never cross Milan. Never. From the Residence to the doors of the Rho Fiera pavilions: a brief, free-flowing stretch of the Novara ring road, then full motorway all the way to the dedicated «Rho Fiera» exit. Thirty-five minutes, predictably.
The journey
The journey to Rho Fiera
Thirty-five minutes, nearly all motorway
La Torre dei Canonici is not a city hotel: to reach the fair you do not cross Milan, you do not depend on the ring road, you do not face the city traffic. You take the A4 at Novara and exit directly at the dedicated «Rho Fiera» toll gate. Predictable timings, even on peak fair days.
La Torre dei Canonici
Inner courtyard, Lumellogno. 5 min to the Novara Est toll booth.
A4 motorway
A brief stretch of the Novara ring road, then A4 Turin-Milan towards Milan. 25 min of continuous motorway.
«Rho Fiera» exit
Exit dedicated to the fair complex, signs are explicit. Zero city turns.
Fieramilano pavilions
From the exit to exhibitor parking: 5 min. Total: 35 minutes.
Why the Torre, when you come for the fair
Four good reasons to step out to Lumellogno
Quiet, after the pavilion
Eight hours of stands, voices, lights. In the evening, here, you have the Novara countryside. Rice fields, herons, the portico of the Old Mill. Another grammar entirely.
Never Milan, nearly all motorway
Thirty-five minutes by car to the dedicated «Rho Fiera» exit, thirty from Malpensa, fifty from Linate. You do not cross Milan: timings stay predictable even on peak fair days.
Transparent rates for professionals
A dedicated rate for those coming to the fair: room, breakfast, internal car park, high-speed wi-fi. No surprises at check-out.
A residence, not a hotel
Eleven Rooms, each one different, inside a fifteenth-century Residence rated 5 Sunflowers Agriturist. The fair stays outside the walls.
Distances and connections
How far we really are
Lumellogno is a hamlet of Novara: halfway between Milan and Turin, on the A4 motorway. The times below are real, taken in average traffic.
| Destination | By car | Train / other |
|---|---|---|
| Rho Fiera Milano | ~35 min | Novara FS → Rho Fiera, ~25 min |
| Allianz MiCo (CityLife) | ~50 min | Novara FS → Milano Centrale + metro M5 |
| Malpensa Airport T1/T2 | ~30 min | Direct bus Novara → Malpensa |
| Linate Airport | ~50 min | Car or train + metro |
| Milan city / Duomo | ~45-55 min | Novara FS → Milano Centrale, ~30 min |
| Novara FS | ~10 min | Taxi or shuttle on request |
| Turin Porta Susa | ~1h 10 min | Direct train ~45 min |
Driving distances measured via Google Maps in average weekday traffic. Real times depend on the day and the time of year: during the busiest fairs, the Novara → Rho stretch can be quicker than the equivalent Milan → Rho.

September 2026 fairs
For the Milan fairs of September 2026, MICAM and Lineapelle from 13 to 17 September and Milan Fashion Week from 22 to 28, La Torre dei Canonici welcomes you in the Novara countryside, about 35 minutes from Rho Fiera, with a tariff already set, from €205 per night. In those days rooms around the Rho fairgrounds become scarce and local rates rise sharply, often beyond €400 a night: we prefer another measure, a dedicated tariff, shared in advance and the same from the first day of the fair to the last. You will find the dates and the rates here, with no request to send.
MICAM and Lineapelle
13 to 17 September 2026
The week that brings the international footwear and leather worlds together at Rho. One continuous event, from the opening day of MICAM to the closing day of Lineapelle.
Milan Fashion Week
22 to 28 September 2026
The womenswear spring-summer collections take to the runway, the week Milan becomes the capital of fashion.
| Room type | 1 guest | 2 guests |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Room | from €205 | from €235 |
| Superior Room | from €235 | from €272 |
| Suite | from €290 | from €335 |
The rates apply to both weeks shown. Breakfast is always included, and so is VAT; only the city tax, €2 per person per night, is settled on site.
Internal car park included. For the September fairs, the parking space in our video-monitored courtyard is included in the rate: park once and arrive at the fair at ease.
Breakfast included. As with every stay at the Residence, the day begins with our breakfast, served from 7:30 to 10:00.
The quiet of the countryside. A few minutes from Rho Fiera yet immersed in the Novara rice fields: you return from the pavilions to silence, not to traffic.
On request, we issue an invoice to your company.
Request availability for your dates
Send us your dates and the number of guests: we will reply with the exact rate, usually the same day, with no obligation. Would you rather talk it through? Reception is glad to answer your questions. You can call us on +39 0321 469900.

La Torre dei Canonici is a Charming Residence in the Novara countryside, about 35 minutes from Rho Fiera along the A4 motorway, with an internal car park and a dedicated tariff shared in advance. You return each evening to silence rather than to city traffic.

Frequently asked questions
Answers to the most common questions
How long does it take to reach Rho Fiera?
By car, about thirty-five minutes from our courtyard to the door of the pavilions: a brief stretch of the Novara ring road, always free-flowing, then A4 Turin-Milan motorway to the dedicated «Rho Fiera» exit. You do not cross Milan, you do not face Milan’s congested ring road, you do not deal with urban traffic. By train, ten minutes by taxi to Novara FS, then twenty-five minutes of regional train to Rho Fiera.
Is there a dedicated motorway exit for the fair?
Yes. On the A4 Turin-Milan, at the level of the fair complex, there is a motorway exit literally called «Rho Fiera», built to serve Fieramilano. Motorway signs are explicit, you cannot miss the turn. From our courtyard to the off-ramp: a brief stretch of the Novara ring road (always free-flowing), then thirty kilometres of motorway. Never a Milan city street.
How long does the morning trip really take, with fair traffic?
Thirty-five to forty minutes, even on peak days. The route is nearly entirely on the motorway (short free-flowing Novara ring road + A4 + «Rho Fiera» exit) and is not affected by Milan’s city traffic. Those staying in central Milan (Brera, Centrale, Duomo) instead need to factor in the western ring road plus ordinary city roads, with times that during the major fairs often exceed sixty minutes.
And to reach Allianz MiCo (CityLife)?
Allianz MiCo hosts Salone del Risparmio, miart, BIT, Sì Sposaitalia, SMAU and other events. About fifty minutes by car from Lumellogno; by train, thirty minutes to Milano Centrale and then seven stops of M5 metro to Tre Torri, directly opposite the convention centre.
What does parking cost? How many spaces are there?
The internal car park is large, open-air and under video surveillance. €10 per night per car. It comfortably accommodates the cars of all guests. No vehicle size restrictions for those travelling with sample cases or bulky materials.
Can I have dinner at the Residence after returning from the fair?
The Residence has no internal restaurant, but on request we can arrange a light dinner for late returns. Let us know your preference when you book.
Is late check-out always guaranteed?
Standard check-out is by noon. For those staying at the pavilion until the fair closes or with an evening flight, late check-out until 3 p.m. is granted on request, subject to Room availability the next day. To be arranged with reception when booking or on arrival.
Do you have group rates for multiple Rooms?
For bookings of multiple Rooms and consecutive nights we apply a ten per cent discount. For groups of six Rooms or more, you can book one of the Residence buildings (Torre or Antico Mulino) exclusively, ensuring continuity of stay and complete privacy.
Do you arrange transfers from Malpensa or Linate?
On request we arrange shuttle service from and to Malpensa (~30 min), Linate (~50 min) and Novara FS station. The service is provided by a trusted partner. Tell us your flight or train number and arrival time: we will be there.
Do you cover fairs not listed in the main selection?
Yes. The nine flagship weeks shown above are the ones with highest demand, but the conditions reserved for professionals apply to every Fiera Milano or Allianz MiCo show. You can find the extended list in the full calendar; for any fair not listed, write to us anyway, we will reply in the same way.
Is the wi-fi suitable for video calls?
Yes. Every Room is covered by high-speed wi-fi, free of charge, suitable for HD video calls, screen sharing and large file transfers. Coverage also reaches the Old Mill meeting rooms and common areas.
Can I use the spa after a fair day?
The Residence Spa is open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m., on reservation with at least one day’s notice. For guests staying with us, access can be booked at check-in. Rates: euro 35 per person for the half day, euro 70 for the full day.
Do you have a room for meetings after the fair?
Yes. The Old Mill rooms accommodate meetings up to forty people in theatre layout, twelve at the board table. Wi-fi, projector, LG interactive touch board, audio system with microphones. See the business page for details.
