Grand Hotel at Lake Como - etia no.: 171
One of the oldest and most elegant hotels at Lake Como.
description:
The Grand Hotel is one of the oldest and most elegant hotels in the Lake Como area and the only 5 star de-luxe hotel in Bellagio.
For the past 100 years or more, the Hotel has been one of the most well-known and prestigious hotels in the world. Set in the splendid surroundings of Lake Como, where the blue waters meet the green mountains which soar above the lake, the Hotel enjoys a breathtaking position on the promontory which juts halfway out into the lake, separating the two branches. The luxurious vegetation of its Italian-style gardens, abounding in Mediterranean and subtropical plants, flourishes in the pleasant microclimate around the lake: sunshine almost all year round, accompanied by mild temperatures in every season. Owing to its delightful setting, Bellagio, an oasis of peace on the shores of the lake, has been a holiday destination for centuries and it was here that, in around 1850, construction work started on a luxurious holiday villa on the banks of the lake for an aristocratic family from Milan.
From April to November the salons and the large lakeside garden offer guests the chance to enjoy a holiday far from the madding crowd and close to nature immersed in one of the most beautiful panoramas in the world.
Lovers of peace and quiet can alternate the pleasure of a poolside drink with beauty treatments and programs at the Hotel SPA, the hotel's own beauty farm and in the fitness area. Or they can set off from the private dock for a motorboat trip to the historic gardens along the lake which, in Springtime, attract tourists from all over the world: especially for the wonderful flowering of the azaleas.
Lovers of sport can take advantage of the hotel gym and tennis courts, enjoy delightful walks or take a mountain bike out on the Bellagio promontory, before freshening up in the swimming pool overlooking the lake.
Those who want to escape from hotel life find refuge in the residence next door (etia 174) where 13 apts wait for guests to relax.
And everyone can enjoy the cuisine of Ettore Bocchia, the chef who has been awarded a Michelin star. The Hotel offers the choice of two restaurants. Terrazza, an elegant setting for top level Italian cuisine and wonderful menus of the day, stands on the large terrace overlooking the lake and offers romantic live music in the evenings. Mistral, a more informal setting, welcomes guests beside the swimming pool. A large window divides the tables on the veranda from those indoors which are set in a wood-panelled lounge reminiscent of the steamers of the past. The menu includes Italian dishes re-interpreted with taste and lightness and a complete selection of molecular cuisine dishes: the latest frontier in gastronomic research, of which Ettore Bocchia is the leading expert in Italy. Choosing this Hotel for your holiday means choosing to rediscover oneself in an oasis of beauty, to then move on with a new awareness of the pleasures of life.
By the way: fantastic to drive up with a pure red Ferrari. The colour would fit in perfectly. Should you not bring your own Ferrari we'd love to organize one for you......
