Just a few meters from the meeting rooms, the Wellness Lounge offers its guests the opportunity to relieve stress in a luminous environment thanks to the huge window overlooking the streets of Milan. The Wellness Lounge has showers and changing rooms for the convenience of its guests.
PRAYER ROOM
A small space set aside between the main conference halls and above the exhibition area, reserved for prayer and meditation. This is how MiCo is meeting the needs of those wishing for a quiet interval between one conference session and another. Red carpet on the floor, a curtain separating the vestibule from the prayer area, a shoe rack, soft lights and complete silence: the purpose-designed austere and simply fitted prayer room satisfies a growing demand.
NURSERY
With the needs of delegates with small babies in mind, MiCo, in partnership with Chicco, has set up a nursery complete with changing mats, bottle-warmers, baby seats, toys, free strollers, bathroom and qualified staff upon request. Situated in the main reception hall, it is clearly signposted and easy to reach. A valuable service for delegates wishing to keep their infants close by and look after them even during congress proceedings or transfers from one area to another.
