Raffles Lake Como will be a full-scale renovation and conversion of the former Grand Hotel Imperiale, a stunning art nouveau villa from the 1920s with one of the largest hotel shorelines in the region. Located on the exclusive western banks of Lake Como in Moltrasio, the hotel will be a short drive to the town of Como, while easy access to a private dock will make it an ideal location from which to explore the rest of the lake and surrounding area.
Raffles Lake Como will be designed to reflect the elegance of Raffles and the vibrancy of the Italian culture. In addition to the brand’s world-renowned butler service, the hotel is expected to feature 84 rooms, including 18 suites and 2 villas, many of which will showcase stunning views of the lake. The hotel is slated to offer exquisite lakeside culinary experiences, in addition to a signature Raffles Long Bar and Writers Bar. For the best in leisure offerings, the resort will include indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a spa and fitness centre, and beach club. Guests will enjoy private lake access, including an exclusive arrival and check-in experience from the water. Raffles Lake Como will also be an ideal place for weddings and celebrations, as well as private social and corporate events, with ample meeting space, grand gardens, and a magnificent lawn overlooking the lake.
