Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
Varenna
A lakefront 19th-century hotel in Varenna — widely considered the most beautiful village on the lake — with a garden terrace directly on the water, a pool, and rooms of honest traditional character. Varenna is quieter than Bellagio and the ferry connections superb.
Varenna
A small, family-run hotel on the Varenna waterfront with a terrace restaurant hovering literally over the lake surface, offering some of the most coveted lunch tables on Como and rooms of unpretentious comfort at below-average prices for the quality.
Bellagio
A charming mid-range hotel in the heart of Bellagio's famous stepped lanes, with balcony rooms overlooking the lake and friendly Italian hospitality that feels authentic rather than polished. Excellent value for a Bellagio address.
A classic waterfront hotel in Como city centre directly on the Piazza Cavour, with lake-facing rooms, a restaurant terrace above the ferry terminal, and easy access to the Como Funicolare and the southern lake ferry network. A practical and pleasant base for exploring the full lake.
Cremia
A small, contemporary design hotel on the quieter northern lake shore, with an infinity pool overlooking the water, minimal Scandinavian-influenced interiors, and an exceptionally good restaurant. The antithesis of the classic lake grandeur — calm, modern, and genuinely restorative.
Bellagio
Bellagio's defining five-star, occupying a 19th-century villa at the tip of the central peninsula with two pools, a full spa, and rooms whose terrace views across both arms of the lake towards the snow-capped Alps are among the most extraordinary in Europe.
