“Villa D'Este presents a fascinating juxtaposition: a property with grounds and views that rival the world's best, yet some find the rooms themselves needing a refresh. The floating pool on Lake Como is, without question, a highlight; it's a feature that truly sets it apart, along with the botanical gardens. While some may find the location presents logistical challenges, the attentive service aims to create a seamless experience.”
Anna BlackEditor-in-Chief at Tohotel
