Booking Villa d'Este?
Book Villa d'Este
Villa d'Este has sat on the shore of Lake Como since 1873, and the grounds alone are worth the trip: terraced gardens, centuries-old cypress trees, and a floating pool built directly on the lake that has to be one of the more unusual hotel pools in Europe. Suites carry the same sense of history, high ceilings, antique furnishings, and views over water that change color through the day.
What stands out most is how lived-in the grandeur feels rather than staged for guests. The hotel has clearly been run this way for generations, and staff move through it with the ease of people who know every corner of the property. It is easy to see why this remains one of the most storied addresses on the lake.
