This property has an amazing View

Set in an 18th-century villa whose former premises housed Pope Innocent XI, this Milanese-designed gem has played host to an aristocratic roll call of occupants, from Count Andrea Lucini-Passalacqua and composer Vincenzo Bellini to the current owners, the De Santis family. Set within spectacular terraced gardens and with just 24 rooms, the boutique hotel showcases the finest Italian craftsmanship in a riot of ornate Baroque elegance. All this comes together in a sublime retreat – almost like a private home – that makes the most of this truly magical lakefront location: just what you’d expect of the winner of The World’s Best Hotel in 2023.
