    Everything! Attention to details, Marvellous view and ambience, amazing breakfast, simply out of the ordinary and worth it to drive the windy road up.

    Absolutely everything - from the warm welcome by the staff and the useful tips, to the tasteful decor, the uniqueness and the serenity of the place. Undoubtedly one of the most beautiful and timeless hotels we’ve ever been to.

    It is such a beautiful place to stay. It feels more like being in a room in a private home than a hotel. And also the staff, and especially, Massimo, feel like friends. The breakfasts are amazing and you eat in the most wonderful big room. The...

Property information

Fully furnished annexe on two levels with lift. The upper floor, in the style of the 1920s/30s, has a living room with a large 17th-century fireplace and a piano, a dining area with a table for 18/20 people that can be extended to seat up to 30. There is a bathroom, a large fitted kitchen, as well as a back office and a porch with a small sitting room. Downstairs there are three large, air-conditioned double bedrooms, each with its own bathroom with shower. Another two new large double rooms in the garden pool area have their own bathroom with shower. High quality linens in pure white cotton poplin with thermal category 2 goose down duvets with pillowcases edged in the same colour as the villa. Silhouettes that will be repeated, as well as on the Relais name, on the linen and on the fine terry towelling disposable slippers. Bath linen in white honeycomb terrycloth consisting of bathrobe, triple towel and rolled square flannels. Charging column for electric cars available. Due to its location in a quiet and isolated place, the relais is not recommended for those without their own car.

Neighbourhood information

The closest activity to the villa is definitely the Brunate Funicular, with which you can reach Como in just 7 minutes on a small train. From the Villa to the funicular it takes 15 minutes of walking (we recommend comfortable shoes) ,5 minutes from the Relais, you will find the Brunate Lighthouse. The lighthouse will give you a better view of the lake and on fine days also of Monte Rosa. To climb to the top of the lighthouse, the ticket costs 2 euro per person. There are numerous activities in Como and on Lake Como. From visiting the historic villas to touring the historic centre, with its walls dating back to Roman times. Getting off the funicular and heading to the right, you will walk along the lakeside and a few metres away you will arrive at Villa Geno. From there we can organise a boat tour with one of our boatmen, visiting the lake on board a beautiful Venetian boat. For further information please do not hesitate to contact us.
