Excellent

Excellent accommodation. Great location. Awesome vibe.

Set on the shores of Lake Como, Palazzo del Vice Re is a luxury boutique hotel. Nestled within a restored aristocratic palace, this unique property is tucked behind a leafy square by the harbor. Staying at this boutique hotel offers travelers the best of both worlds: a coveted lakefront location within an off-the-beaten-track fishing village.

Arriving under the stone arch, guests step onto well-worn paving stones into the courtyard to experience Lake Como's special brand of la dolce vita.

Blending old world charm with the latest amenities, the hotel's three apartments, one junior suite, and one deluxe double room are each unique in order to maintain the historic building's architecture and style. There is original artwork by a Northern Italian painter, fine Italian textiles, and a mix of elegant antiques with modern kitchens and bathrooms.

For breakfast, guests dine in the Sala Giunone with a 17th century fireplace and Renaissance-era fresco. While Bar Barbarossa is the destination for aperitivos, along with wine and food tasting under stone-clad vaulted ceilings.
