Villa d’Este is located on the shores of the most romantic lake in the world, Lake Como. Surrounded by 25 acres of enchanting grounds, the villa was built in 1568 as the summer residence of Cardinal Tolomeo Gallio and converted into a luxury hotel in 1873. It quickly became the destination of choice for European aristocracy experiencing the Grand Tour. Today Villa d’Este is celebrated all around the world. It is a destination in itself, the definition of tradition and the embodiment of a legend. Exceptional service, attention to detail and unmistakable style make Villa d’Este a universally recognised icon of the hotel industry and a beloved destination for guests. The 151 rooms, divided between the Cardinal Building and the Queen’s Pavilion, are all unique. Each is furnished with antique Renaissance-style furniture and equipped with all modern comforts. The four private villas, set in the gardens, blend the full range of hotel services with discretion, privacy and exclusivity. Villa d’Este also features an elegant selection of restaurants and bars: the Veranda for a more formal ambience and world-class dining or the Grill for a more relaxed atmosphere. In addition, guests can enjoy the beauty centre, replete with spa treatment rooms, a sauna, steam bath, indoor swimming pool and fitness facilities, along with tennis and squash courts, and even running trails. The famous heated floating pool on the lake was the first for the history books.
Located on the south-western edge of Lake Como, Villa d’Este is the region’s uncontested grand dame property. A former 16th century noble residence, the hotel is synonymous with excellent service, breathtaking views and sumptuous accommodations. The152 guest rooms and suites are divided between two stately palaces: the Cardinal Building and the Queen’s Pavilion. Each room is individually and lavishly decorated with covetable antiques, marble bathrooms and oil paintings. Striped curtains complement the silk-brocade drapes and luxurious décor that lend each room a rich, sumptuous feel. The hotel boasts 4 stunning private villas – Villa Cima, Villa Malakoff, Villa Garrovo and the Mosaic House - all located in the estate's luscious garden. Guests have access to all the facilities and amenities of the Villa d’Este while enjoying the privacy and exclusivity that a private villa offer. Meals at the Veranda, the hotel formal restaurant, are princely affairs (jacket and tie are required for gentlemen for dinner), but the rest of the dining venues are casual, with menus that please all ages.
