Villa d'Este Hotel Italy

Background

Villa d'Este 5 star, a member of The Leading Hotels of the World is often called the most beautiful hotel in the world. It is on the banks ofromantic Lake Como, just north of Milan and 5 minutes from the Swiss border. Villa d'Este was built in 1568 as the summer residence of Cardinal Tolomeo Gallio. The property comprises 25 acres of garden and is considered one of the world's finest examples of architecture and landscaping. The favourite playground of an Empress, an English queen and aristocrats, it was transformed into a luxury hotel in 1873. Continuously renovated and updated, without sacrificing any of its old-world charm, Villa d'Este today offers 152 rooms, all different in decor but linked by the superior standards of hospitality that you expect from one of Europe's truly legendary resort.
