THE PINK NOTEBOOK VERDICT
Grand Hotel Tremezzo
Set on the western shore of Lake Como, this Belle Époque palace from 1910 faces Bellagio across the water, its façade reflecting a century of continuous family stewardship by the De Santis family. The property unfolds across the main palace and the nearby 18th-century Villa Emilia, where period furnishings, gilded detailing, and Como silk fabrics preserve the atmosphere of an earlier era while still feeling lived-in rather than staged. Rooms range from corner lake-view spaces with dual-aspect French windows to contemporary rooftop suites and historically rooted signature suites, each shaped with its own character and story. Outside, the estate opens into layered experiences: floating pools on the lake itself, a sandy lido, tennis courts, and botanical gardens that sit in dialogue with the adjacent Villa Carlotta’s historic grounds. Wellness spans three levels of spa spaces in a restored 18th-century building, combining frescoed interiors, panoramic thermal areas, and treatments rooted in local traditions and Italian apothecary heritage. Dining moves across different moods, from refined haute cuisine overlooking the lake to relaxed trattoria-style meals and wood-fired pizza by the water. Seasonal operation from March to November shapes the rhythm of the property, adding to its sense of occasion.
