Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni, Bellagio

Elegance on the shores of Lake Como

Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni has been a Lake Como landmark for over a century. It occupies a stunning position on a promontory reaching out into the lake in Como's well-heeled Bellagio. Winston Churchill, J.F. Kennedy, Clark Gable and Al Pacino are among the guests who have visited, and Michelin-starred chef, Ettore Bocchia, heads up the hotel's lake view restaurant.

With a spa and wellness centre, dedicated concierge and lush surrounding gardens, Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni offers five-star service and facilities. There are two swimming pools including a large outdoor pool beside the lake, which is surrounded by sun loungers, and has a bar for snacks and drinks. There is also an indoor pool at the hotel's spa and fitness centre.

The hotel's spa offers an array of massages, scrubs and peels. Choose either a one-off treatment or a full weekend long pampering package. Among the treatments on offer is the deluxe caviar face and hands treatment, or go for a candlelit massage followed by a glass of Champagne for a touch of romance. All hotel guests have access to Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni's gym, sauna and steam bath, and for people who like to stay active on holiday there are also tennis courts.

The hotel's Mistral restaurant is the fine dining option, with impeccable service and beautiful dishes. Lake views and live music top off the atmosphere of elegance and sophistication. For a more informal meal, try La Goletta restaurant, which is next to the swimming pool. Try the delicious fresh pasta dishes for a true taste of Italy.
