The Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni is a 5-star hotel on the tip of the Bellagio promontory, overlooking Lake Como with views of the Alps, owned by the Bucher family for three generations.
Transformed into a luxury hotel in 1873, the villa retains monumental staircases, frescoed ceilings and the Salone Reale with its Murano glass chandeliers. The rooms, all air-conditioned, combine classic furnishings, carpeted floors and wooden furniture; many overlook the lake, while the larger suites add a separate living room and whirlpool tub.
Guests have access to two pools, one indoor and one outdoor, two gardens, a wellness centre with beauty treatments, and sports facilities including tennis and squash courts. The Mistral restaurant, awarded a Michelin star since 2005, is joined by La Goletta for regional cuisine in an informal setting. Breakfast, served every morning, is an international buffet with vegetarian and vegan options. The location, among the most central in Bellagio, is cited by guests as one of the property’s main strengths.
