Wow! Incredible property and stay from start to finish. The rooms are spacious and well equipped, the view from every party of the resort are apectaculr, and the spa and other amenities are on point. The entire experience is modern and relaxing and we loved that there are only a smaller number of rooms. We left feeling rejuvenated and are already talking about wanting to come back. 10/10 five star hospitality

Super luxurious room!
One of the best rooms Iā€™ve ever stayed! It was super luxurious feeling, the staff was always super nice and ready to help. The only thing that is kind of bizzarre is that you are on a super luxury hotel that shares amenities with a 3 stat hotel on the some property. But in general was amazing. Also dinning at la musa was a really culinary experience.

A Dream in Italy
Quite possibly one of the best stays I had in Italy. Booked the Penthouse and worth every penny. The staff made us feel very cared for during our visit. Thereā€™s a private tunnel to one of the restaurants that feels out of a movie. Thereā€™s a small town thatā€™s worth visiting for some lunch and gelato, About a 20 min walk away. We asked the front desk what would be the best place for breakfast with a view of the lake and they replied, ā€œYour roomā€ and they werenā€™t kidding, The view from the patio was cinematic. Canā€™t wait to be back this Summer.

This is your spot
Weā€™ve stayed in some beautiful places and Aria will not disappoint. The staff, however, is the real star of this show. From front staff to back of house they offer a true 5 star experience. After a whirlwind trip through the expected stops (Venice, Verona, Lake Como) we wanted something a bit more low key but with nice amenities. The VIP spa experience is worth the extra expense for a memorable afternoon and their tasting experience restaurant is as good (or better) than NYC. That they are an upscale boutique hotel as part of a larger hotel property provides large hotel amenities but exceptional quick service. Oh they even have Donkeys you can feed which was super cute.

A gem of a place. Little paradise on lake Lugano away from crowds but conveniently 15 minutes to Mennagio and 20 minutes to Lugano. Amazing, spacious, well appointed rooms, beautiful facilities, out of this world swimming pool and jacuzzi. But what makes this place truly unique is people. Martina, Michela, Matteo, Tecla, Serena you are amazing, warm, incredible people. Thank you for your top notch service, attention to detail, promptness, friendliness, kindness and AMAZING help. You truly made our visit special and we cannot thank you enough for everything you have done for us. I highly recommend this place to anyone traveling to Como and will definitely be back with my family. A true gem!
