Casa sull'Albero  

Perched on Lake Como in the ancient town of Malgrate, Casa sull'Albero overlooks the water and sits inside a 3,000 sqm park of centuries-old trees. You're a short drive from Bellagio and Varenna (about 20 minutes), Como (30 minutes) and Milan (40 minutes), with train and bus stops just metres away. Local sights like Chiesa di Sant'Antonio Abate, Parco Faunistico Le Cornelle and Palazzo Olginati are within easy reach, making this boutique Lake Como hotel both scenic and well placed for day trips.

Two modern villas of glass and wood house just 12 guest rooms in a warm, minimal Italian style with modern furnishings and lake views. The vibe is boutique and sustainable, with curated local products and tailored service from a small, attentive team. Unique touches include a personal spa and massage area, a cinema room and a quiet library tucked into the park.

Take a dip in the seasonal outdoor pool set in the park, or unwind in the spa, sauna and solarium after a day of exploring. There's a fitness room, on-site bar and restaurant, concierge and tour desk, plus parking and shuttle options for nearby beaches and ferries. Expect lake-breeze mornings and easy access to golf and ski spots—Lecco Golf Club is under 10 minutes and Bobbio–Valtorta about 20 minutes away.

Event-ready with a conference center and meeting room, Casa sull'Albero also offers complimentary Wi‑Fi, limo/town car service, luggage storage and an elevator for easy access.

On-site Ristorante Da Giovannino serves Italian cuisine with garden views, and a bar/lounge rounds out evening drinks. Continental breakfasts are available daily (for a fee), and limited room service is offered for quieter nights in.
