Built at the turn of the 20th century, this is widely considered the nicest hotel in Como town, and it is very long on charm and style. A favorite of wealthy Milanese who came to the lake for weekend getaways, it combines the warmth of history with the comforts of technology, offering all the modern amenities we want within a context of Art Deco architecture and décor. From the stone façade to the one-of-a-kind lobby, everywhere you look you'll spot intricate moldings, carved woodwork and boiserie, wrought-iron fixtures and imaginative details. The staff is well known for its willingness to help make your stay on the lake as much fun as you hope -- and with everything located just around the corner, you'll be able to maximize your time and enjoyment.
