GRAND HOTEL VILLA SERBELLONI

Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni

 

Located at the centre of Lake Como, this is a strategic base for excursions on the lake and visits to villas and botanical gardens. A private tour of the beauties of Lake Como can include the charming fisherman’s village of Pescallo, Varenna villas, Villa Carlotta with its botanical gardens and the Star Wars location of Villa Balbianello. It’s also possible to see the beautiful Comacina Island and the villas of Bellagio. Within walking distance are the gardens of Villa Serbelloni Rockefeller and Villa Melzi. Lovers of nature will enjoy hiking in the green mountains for superb views of the Alps, the lake and stunning Bellagio peninsula. Those who enjoy golf can revel in the pleasures of Italy’s celebrated 18-hole course, Golf Club Menaggio and Cadenabbiaw, just 20 minutes from the Grand Hotel.

Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni’s ornate interior places an emphasis on traditional comfort. Beautiful views of the lake can be sampled from the bedrooms, terrace and gardens. The magical romance of the elegant salons, each of which is a jewel in its own right, is complemented by the most up-to-date hotel services. This is the perfect place for a romantic honeymoon, a suggestive candlelit dinner on the terrace at sunset or an intimate cruise on a private boat. Guests have the choice of two high-quality restaurants at the hotel. The elegant Ristorante Terrazza Villa Serbelloni offers spectacular views of Lake Como as well as traditional and creative cuisine combined with a refined wine list. The more casual Ristorante Mistral specialises in traditional and Mediterranean dishes.

Since 1873, the Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni has been a holiday home for the cream of European aristocracy, royalty and film stars who have arrived with large entourages to luxuriate in the hospitality, good taste and attention to detail. Today, the hotel’s grand tradition of maximising the comfort of guests remains as important as ever. Enjoying an enviable location in the centre of Bellagio, one of the most breathtaking towns on the northern Italian lakes, the Grand Hotel is able to provide a combination of peace and tranquillity, comfort, history, art and culture. To the rear, the private park and hillside give protection in a haven of greenery while the front of the hotel looks out over Lake Como. Many of the rooms are furnished with French-style wall hangings, heavy curtains, antique Persian carpets, chandeliers and frescoes.
