Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni
For the past 100 years or more, the Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni has been one of the most well-known and prestigious hotels in the world. Dating from 1873, the historic Serbelloni has hosted and charmed many prestigious guests. Set in in the Lake Como area, where the blue waters meet the green mountains which soar above the lake. The luxurious vegetation of its Italian-style gardens, abounding in Mediterranean and subtropical plants, flourishes in the pleasant microclimate around the lake: sunshine almost all year round, accompanied by mild temperatures in every season.
From April to November the salons and the large lakeside garden offer guests the chance to enjoy a holiday far from the lout city and close to nature. Lovers of peace and quiet can enjoy the pleasure of a poolside drink with beauty treatments and programmes at Villa Serbelloni SPA, the hotel’s own beauty farm. Or they can take a motorboat trip to the historic gardens along the lake, which in springtime wander tourists all over the world, especially for the wonderful flowering of the azaleas.
Lovers of sport can take advantage of the hotel gym and tennis courts, enjoy walks or take a mountain bike out on the Bellagio promontory, before freshening up in the swimming pool overlooking the lake. And everyone can enjoy the cuisine of Ettore Bocchia, the chef who has been awarded a Michelin star. The Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni offers the choice of two restaurants. Terrazza Serbelloni, an elegant setting for top level Italian cuisine and wonderful menus of the day, stands on the large terrace overlooking the lake and offers romantic live music in the evenings.
Mistral, a more informal setting, welcomes guests beside the swimming pool. A large window divides the tables on the veranda from those indoors which are set in a wood-panelled lounge reminiscent of the steamers of the past.
Say goodbye to the madding city crowds and be prepared to spend a relaxing holiday with your loved ones, surrounded by tradition, elegance, good taste, and a touch of discrete exclusivity.
