"An opulent hub of style and panache set on Lake Como, Villa D’Este radiates Italian glamour with its stylish guestrooms, floating swimming pool and 25 acres of gorgeous grounds."

Villa d’Este, on the banks of Lake Como, once home to royalty, is one of the most opulent and best-loved hotels in the Italian lake district, renowned for its exquisite style and panache. Set in Cernobbio, famous for its beautiful villas and scenery, Villa d’Este always manages to stand out. The hotel is steeped in history. Created from two beautiful mansions, one dating back to the 16th century and the other the former home of Caroline of Brunswick, (estranged wife of the then-future king of England, George IV), the hotel’s style is regal and sophisticated. From the moment you’re inside, you feel like you’ve stepped back in time, albeit with all the mod cons of today.

Very ornate, glamorous Italian decor throughout includes period furnishings, antiques, silk-brocade drapes, oil paintings and vintage prints.

The design flair extends to the guest rooms which are split across the Cardinal Building and the Queen’s Pavilion, with terraces and balconies making the most of the lake and garden views. Twenty-five acres of gorgeous, landscaped beauty surrounds the hotel and the lower gardens, which date back to the Renaissance period, and feature a 16th-century mosaiced monument dedicated to the nymphs of Roman mythology.

Another gem is the legendary ‘floating’ swimming pool, built into the lake with its jacuzzi. There is also an outdoor children’s pool and an indoor pool in the sports club building where you can use the fitness room, sauna, Turkish baths, squash courts and the electronic golf simulator. Meanwhile, the beauty centre offers sumptuous treatments including a Power Peel to help your skin look healthier. You can buy the hotel’s line of cosmetics, created exclusively for Villa d’Este by Tuttestetica S.p.a., to take home too. If you want to get out on the water, a private boat tour of the lake’s notable villas is a delightful way to spend a few hours. You should make sure to take dinner at the Veranda restaurant (tie and jacket should be worn) for more of the delightful panoramas.
