It is the largest hotel in Lake Como and located in the residential part of the city, between central Como and the Swiss border.

The property is close to the promenade along the lake and the neoclassical Villa Olmo. Milan is 45 minutes away and there are several shopping outlets nearby the hotel.

Dining options include the signature restaurant, Satin, serving Southern Swiss, North Italian and Valtellina cuisine which are the regions surrounding the lake, and the restaurant also features a wine library and cheese room. Guests can have smaller meals at the hotel’s Taffeta lounge and bar or at the pool-adjacent, rooftop dining venue, Terrazza 241.
