Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni


Overview

As if the heart of Bellagio and its sun-kissed shores weren’t breathtaking enough, a stay at Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni makes a visit to this iconic Italian village truly sublime. Here, guests step into a world of Italian elegance and the highest levels of hospitality. Frescoed ceilings, sweeping terraces, and panoramic views of Lake Como promise that wherever the moment takes you, divine details always await.

Indoors there’s époque furniture and intricate tapestries that together narrate stories of a grand past 150 years in the making. Outdoors, the detail unfolds into its botanical gardens, in which bamboo forests, blossoming camellias and abundant citrus trees enchant wandering guests. And just beyond are the cobblestoned pathways of Bellagio village - known as ‘the pearl of Lake Como’ - that picture-frames the alpine mountains and crystalline waters in a way visitors will never forget.

After a day sailing, water skiing, shopping or sightseeing, the newly renovated American Bar or open-air Darsena bar provide the perfect spots to kick back with a legendary cocktail finished with a spritz of one of its secret crystal-bottled 'cocktail perfumes'. Sound any of the thoughtfully positioned brass doorbells to summon an attentive barman for a second round. From aperitif to appetizers, Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni has two exceptional restaurants – La Goletta for all-day traditional Italian dining overlooking the lake and the hotel’s shimmering pool, and Mistral, which is recognized by the Michelin Guide for its haute cuisine in a crystal-clear glass-walled environment with a cabriolet roof to welcome in the starry sky at night.

The cherry on top must be its spa and fitness complex, Luce del Lago, that translates to ‘Light of the Lake’. Extensively renovated in 2024, it provides guests with a tranquil sanctuary to open, punctuate, or close days spent here, whether that’s with a holistic treatment or to simply sink into the serenity of its heated whirlpools.

Accommodations

Not too big, nor too small, Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni counts 94 uniquely appointed rooms and suites in its great halls and art gallery worthy corridors. To stay here is to know that every single room is special, with individualized furnishings and textiles so luxurious that leaving the comfort your the bedroom is no easy feat. Even the duvets have rich meaning woven into them, based on designs from the 1800s and hand-stitched from Lake Como’s own precious silk. Some rooms offer views onto the verdant gardens below, others onto picturesque Bellagio, and the remainder over Lake Como itself.

To elevate the guest experience to the highest echelons, choose one of its four Signature Suites, christened after illustrious former guests. The JFK Suite, for example, has an elegant sequence of living spaces with a central ‘salotto’ that houses an original piano once played by the legendary composer Franz Liszt. Spanning rooms 133 through to 141, it’s one of the largest suites on the whole of Lake Como for those seeking a private retreat with unrivaled luxury and privacy.
