Full accommodation information
Hotel information
Discover Italy’s idyllic Lake Como from the comfort of your own private Jacuzzi on the rooftop of the Grand Hotel Tremezzo – one of the oldest luxury hotels on the lake and at one time a favourite of Greta Garbo.
The hotel is still family-owned and run, sitting on the edge of the lake with views of the Grigne mountains and it closes during winter for a yearly ‘face-lift’, meaning the facilities and amenities are consistently top-notch. A particularly unique feature is the T Beach - where real sand recreates a classic lido, with umbrellas and sunbeds and views of Bellagio. You’ll also find three swimming pools and a clay tennis court, as well as the luxurious T spa.
Surely the biggest draw of the region though is the lake itself, which you can explore from the hotel’s own private boat. There are also three docks on the doorstep of Tremezzo, ensuring considerable ease of access to Lake Como.
Gastronomes will be truly spoilt at the hotel’s array of dining options. The five different restaurants and snack bars are signed by the Maestro Gualtiero Marchesi, and include La Terrazza Gualtiero Marchesi, fine Italian cuisine served on the terrace, L’Escale Trattoria & Wine Bar.
Alternatively, check out the six-bedroom Villa Sola Cabiati, the hotel villa just minutes away ideal for large groups.
