Overview

Set in one of the most romantic lakes in the world, Lake Como, Villa d’Este is surrounded by a wonderful 10-hectare private park. Built in 1568 as the summer residence of Cardinal Tolomeo Gallio, it was transformed into a luxury hotel in 1873, becoming a favourite destination for the European aristocracy.

Today, Villa d’Este is a magical place thanks also to the five-star exceptional service, attention to detail, warmth of the staff and unmistakable style that have characterized the uniqueness of the hotel throughout the years.

The 152 rooms and suites, overlooking the lake or the park, are divided into two buildings: the Cardinal Building and the Queen’s Pavilion. Each is furnished with antique pieces in the Renaissance style and equipped with every modern comfort. Windows and terraces are right on the lake, with exceptional views of the mountains all around and boats quietly returning to shore in the evening.

Villa d’Este features a selection of refined restaurants and bars. You can choose the Veranda for a more formal ambience where you can enjoy world class dining. If you prefer a more relaxed atmosphere, you can opt for the Grill which offers tasty regional cuisine. During the summer months, pick the Platano as your dinner location for simple and refined food. Or savour a light lunch at the Sundeck, the hotel’s pool bar, followed by a delicious cocktail at the Bar Canova.

There's a wellness and beauty centre to enjoy complete with spa treatment rooms, a sauna, Turkish bath, indoor swimming pool and fitness facilities, along with tennis and squash courts, jogging trails, an indoor golf simulator and a putting green. A unique swimming pool is floating on the lake.
