This sleek hotel offers a peaceful escape on the shores of Lake Como

An elegant lakefront property with beautifully designed rooms boasting some of the best views across the water, with a Michelin-starred restaurant and a selection of boats to enjoy the lake

Location

Il Sereno has an exquisite position on the southwest fork of Lake Como in Torno, a small town with winding streets, a scattering of shops and a few local restaurants. The city of Como, which sits on the southern tip of the lake, is roughly a 10-minute drive (around 7km), where you’ll find high street and designer shops, restaurants, a bustling port and Como football club with its stadium on the shores of the lake. Most travellers will reach this end of Lake Como via train or plane into Milan, which is a roughly one-hour drive (around 55km) from Il Sereno.
