6 hotels · Updated February 2026
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.
Bellagio
A family-run lakeside albergo 2km from Bellagio with a private dock, a celebrated fish restaurant supplied daily by the family's own fishing boat, and simple, immaculate rooms at budget-friendly prices. The most authentic fisherman's accommodation on the lake.
Moltrasio
Named one of the world's best hotels, Passalacqua is an 18th-century villa on a private lakeside estate above Moltrasio — 24 rooms and a private beach, with Bellini's grand piano in the salon and a kitchen garden supplying a genuinely exceptional restaurant. The most intimate and perfect small luxury hotel on the lake.
Tremezzo
A stunning 1910 Liberty-style palace on the mid-lake western shore with three pools including a floating platform pool on the lake, a historic car collection in the garage, and rooms of romantic grandeur facing the Villa Carlotta gardens across the water. One of Europe's great classic hotel experiences.
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.
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.
