Incredible Accommodations
We pride ourselves on going the extra mile to find hotel properties that
truly reflect the region. A few of our favourites include...
Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni, Bellagio Como
Villa Serbelloni, one of the oldest hotels in the Lake Como area, was one of the most famous stops along the 19thC tour of the lakes. Not much has changed today. This 5-star hotel is decorated in a neo-classical style and offers guests the pleasure of a relaxing poolside, spa treatments or a motorboat ride from the private dock to the historic gardens along the lake.
