Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni

Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni stands in the centre of Bellagio on Lake Como, with the water and the Alps visible from the property. It is the only five-star hotel in Bellagio and one of the oldest hotels on the lake.

Rooms are large and finished in a classic style, fitted with air-conditioning, a minibar, and satellite television. The hotel serves a full international breakfast each morning. The main restaurant, La Goletta, holds a Michelin star and focuses on regional cooking — the food of Lombardia and the lake.

The leisure facilities are substantial for a town-centre hotel. There are two gardens, an indoor pool, and an outdoor pool. The spa has a gym and a treatment centre alongside it. The combination of the pools and the gardens means you have outdoor space beyond the immediate lakefront.

Bellagio sits at the point where Lake Como splits into its two southern arms, which gives the hotel views in several directions across the water. The town is small and walkable, and the ferry connections from Bellagio reach the other lake villages without needing a car. The hotel is the largest and most formal property in the town.
