Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni, Bellagio

The 5 star Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni, which is regularly quoted by both Conde Nast Traveller and Travel and Leisure as one of the best hotels in the world, lies at the tip of the promontory in Bellagio, a small Medieval town known as the Pearl of the Lake for its beauty and privileged position in the centre of Lake Como.Since 1873, when the private home was turned into a luxury hotel, the Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni has welcomed the greatest names in European aristocracy, and today offers all lovers of quality of life a truly unique holiday, far from the madding crowd for a personal and relaxing experience. The original charm of the rooms with their frescoed ceilings, the bedrooms, the Royal Hall, with its splendid Murano glass chandeliers and richly gilded mirrors, can still be admired today. One of the secrets maintaining this rather magical atmosphere is the presence of the Bucher family, who have owned the Grand Hotel for generations. The Buchers live in the hotel and are truly able to make their guests, on holiday or on business, feel like they are staying in a grand home from a past century which, year after year, opens its doors to welcome back its old friends. The Mistral Restaurant was awarded with a Michelin star in 2005, and offers the chance to eat on the terrace overlooking Lake Como. La Goletta serves regional specialties in an informal setting. A full English breakfast is served daily. The spa is available for wellness and beauty treatments. Sports facilities include tennis and racquetball courts, and a gym with cardio-fitness machines. Garage and parking available at the hotel free of charge. Additional Information: Children age 2 and under stay free in the room with parents and in existing bedding. Children age 3-12 pay 36 Euro per day. Children over this age will be considered an adult.
