Passalacqua

Overlooking the shores of Lake Como, Passalacqua is a historic villa transformed into an intimate hotel that celebrates Italian heritage and craftsmanship. Once the residence of composer Vincenzo Bellini, the 18th-century estate has been meticulously restored, blending original frescoes, antiques and gardens with modern luxury touches.

The property offers a limited number of suites, each individually designed to reflect the villa’s history and character. From grand salons with lake views to secluded garden rooms, the accommodations embody timeless elegance with a contemporary sensibility. The terraced gardens, fountains and private pathways add to the sense of romance and exclusivity.

Dining highlights Italy’s culinary traditions, with seasonal menus crafted from locally sourced produce. Guests may enjoy al fresco meals in the gardens, intimate dinners in frescoed rooms or relaxed tastings that showcase regional wines. The atmosphere is one of conviviality and refinement, echoing the villa’s legacy as a place of gathering and culture.

Passalacqua captures the essence of Lake Como — its beauty, artistry and history — while offering a new model of intimate luxury. It is not just a hotel but a cultural landmark, inviting travellers into a world where heritage and hospitality intertwine seamlessly.
