For centuries a residence of the aristocracy – princesses, marquises, sultans and tsars. And since 1873, an elegant and charming five-star resort; one of the most celebrated in the world. Luxury lake views exemplify the art of living well in a suggestive experience that fills the eyes and inspires the mind.
Overlooking one of the most romantic lakes in the world, Lake Como, Villa d’Este is surrounded by a wonderful 10-hectare private park. The rooms and suites, overlooking the lake or the park, are divided into two buildings: the Cardinal Building and the Queen’s Pavilion. Windows and terraces overlooking the lake, with exceptional views of the marina and boats quietly returning to shore in the evening.
The precise location of heaven on earth has never been established but it may very well be right here.
Perhaps one of the world’s most established luxury hotels. Villa d’Este has historically been a playground to royals, sultans and the upper classes. It has evolved into an opulent, luxurious getaway, and is a fairytale wedding venue. Well known for its exquisite gardens which provide an unparalleled backdrop for wedding photography & videography. The interior decor is continuously renovated but still retains the all important old-world charm. Villa D’Este offers 152 rooms, each slightly different but equally elegant. They are furnished with antiques and vintage artefacts that take you back to the belle époque. Terraces, large windows, and stone balconies highlight awe-inspiring lake vistas. For hotel guests, relaxation can be had in the well appointed spa, wellness and fitness centres. Golf lovers have the choice of not one, but two world class courses. If Golf is your not your thing, there are multiple on-site tennis courts. Villa D’Este has actually become a destination in itself, and guests are guaranteed exquisite cuisine and impeccable five star service.
