In Transit Blog: Once a Palace, Now a Lake Como Hotel

Written By Unknown on Selasa, 15 April 2014 | 17.35

Most of the upscale hotels in Lake Como, Italy, have been around for decades, but that's set to change on June 1 with the opening of Il Palazzo del Vice Re in the medieval lakeside  village of Lezzeno.

The five-room luxury property is a renovated Italian Renaissance palace that was home to the viceroys of Spain in the 16th and 17th centuries when the Spanish ruled the territory. The rooms range between 320 and 2,500 square feet and are each uniquely decorated.

A two-level suite, for example, has antique furniture and a large covered terrace with views of the lake and the  surrounding mountains while another room has high ceilings and hand-painted 18th-century frescoes of the Greek god Juno.

Guests get a range of  included amenities like breakfast, afternoon tea, Wi-Fi, bikes for exploring the area, toiletries made nearby using locally grown lavender, and wine and cheese tastings in the cantina.

The manager, Andrea Grisdale, said the appeal of the property is getting an authentic experience in what can be a touristy region.

"This is not a town that travelers typically visit, and your neighbors are all locals, so you really get a sense of place," she said.

The hotel will close mid-November for the winter and reopen again on March 1 of next year. Rates from 280 euros (about $377) a night for two people.
