Amazing team and environment work.

We stayed for three nights at the MO and it is, bar none, one of the most beautiful settings for any hotel Ive seen. Right on the shores of Lake Como Without any of the touristy nonsense of places like the Bellagio, it was the perfect quiet place to explore the area from. The service was out of this world. Isabel bent over backwards to ensure everything went perfectly with our stay and was a delight to get to interact with. We booked Vista Lago Duplex Terrace Suite which has a stunning balcony and spacious two floor set up. Of the few dings I’d give for this resort, the room, however, is one of them. Having been to over a half dozen MO, the decor and finishings were quite drab and dated compared to other properties and the overall beauty of the villa itself- especially when a room is more then $4k/night. The spa is amazing and the dining, while good, is not as tasty and nearby Italian restaurants in Como and Milan. Definitely recommend taking a boat ride across the lake while you’re here too.

I fell in love with this place. Early in the morning you open your eyes and find yourself in a fabulous place. All your dreams are starting to come true. Time stops and you are immersed in a parallel world. This is one of the best places on our earth....

I fell in love with this place. Early in the morning you open your eyes and find yourself in a fabulous place. All your dreams are starting to come true. Time stops and you are immersed in a parallel world. This is one of the best places on our earth. This hotel makes the impossible possible.

Wonderful experience at a beautiful hotel. We stayed here at the end of August 2024 for our 31st year anniversary and our friend's 30th anniversary. The only complaint is that we didn't book more days to stay here on our (3) week tour of France and Italy. We stayed at (4) different high end hotels on this trip and this was by far the best experience of them all. Our room was beautiful with a wonderful view of Lake Como. We enjoyed every minute of the pool which is actually right on the lake. The restaurants on property had good food and drinks and the breakfast was amazing (still dreaming of the French Toast). We would like to thank the management and the staff for making our stay so enjoyable!

My husband and I just returned from our vacation at Mandarin Como and I simply can not praise the staff and level of service received during our stay, it was perfection. We stayed at this property before the Mandarin acquired it and we were curious to see what changed. As it turns out, all the changes were for the better, and they have only improved upon the previous owners. There are of course other properties to consider on Como, but I can say with complete confidence that there is no better location than the Mandarin. Also it wasn't full of Americans the way some of the other hotels are, it was a sophisticated mix of clientele, and generally speaking, people were polite and kind, but you had plenty of privacy. Oh and the food was to die for, there are so many options and it was all fabulous. Happy booking, you wont regret it!

This property is truly unique. It manages to feel intimate while still incredibly expansive. As far as rooms, this was the most beautiful lake view grand suite I have experienced in years.

This property is truly unique. It manages to feel intimate while still incredibly expansive. As far as rooms, this was the most beautiful lake view grand suite I have experienced in years. Extremely expansive with two bathrooms, separate living room and dining room and two balconies with seating overlooking the lake. The food at the hotel from breakfast to their Michelin rated restaurant for dinner was the highlight food wise of our three week trip in Italy. As far as for the check in team, concierge and valet teams they were absolutely incredible. Going above and beyond in every interaction. This property has been on my bucket list for years and I honestly exceeded my expectations. I can’t wait to come back!

I want to thank the MO Lago di Como team for not just the flawless hospitality, but also the genuine kindness, that we have experienced during our stay. One of my favourite movies is the Italian classic Cinema Paradiso. The MO Lago di Como has become my own personal Cinema Paradiso, an oasis of calm and escape from the real world! The only downside is the eventual re-entry into everyday life! Even before our arrival, Alice has been an angel and an amazing ambassador of the MO and the property. She helped with our itinerary and was extremely patient with our requests. It was wonderful to meet her in person - she is kinder and warmer in the flesh than she was on email - and she continued to go above and beyond after we checked in, warning us about our disrupted dinner reservation due to an emergency at the restaurant - on a weekend evening! If there is an award for dedication to hospitality then I can't think of a more deserving winner! At check-in, we were shown the highest level of care and consideration by Maria and the front of house. It is not uncommon for a property of this calibre to offer welcome drinks and make guests feel comfortable at check-in, but the team took it to a whole new level with the personal touch - from the seamless transfer of our luggage to the escort to our lunch venue (at the fabulous L'Aria terrace) - we were literally and figuratively transported to another (very desirable) world. Maria is another one of the angels in the team. No query is too hard for her to resolve, and no request too extravagant to accommodate. I can only hope that every front of house team takes a leaf out this out of this hospitality book! I also want to compliment the L'Aria team for always making me feel like I am dining in my own (extremely upgraded!) home kitchen, whether enjoying the scrumptious breakfasts or delighting in the fine dinner. The team was extremely kind to pack breakfast boxes for me to bring back to my wife who preferred to linger in the amazing villa (and who can blame her?). We had the pleasure of being introduced to Matteo, the generous restaurant manager, who made on-point recommendations and provided discreet and attentive service throughout our dinner, despite a very busy full house. It is no surprise that the rest of his team is equally polished and accomplished. It is an amazing privilege to have the opportunity to experience the suites at the property. What a legendary residence! One can only dream about waking up to the unblocked lake view, and then having every creature comfort imaginable at one's fingertips. It should be a crime to provide such an insane level of luxury to your guests - because it will be a hard landing when we eventually check out! Grazie mille for providing us with this experience. We can't wait for our next visit and this time with our two boys who will be resentful they were not with us the first time around!

Recently, I had the pleasure of spending a few unforgettable days at the Mandarin Oriental, Lago di Como, and I would like to share my impressions of this exceptional experience. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the beauty of the place. The hotel is located on the shores of Lake Como, surrounded by magnificent gardens and stunning views. The architecture is modern, yet retains the charm of classic Italian aesthetics, creating a sense of luxury and tranquility. Our room was spacious, elegantly furnished, and extremely comfortable. Every detail was carefully considered - from the soft bathrobes and high-quality bed linens to the lovely balcony overlooking the lake. We were particularly impressed by the technological amenities and modern design, which contributed to our comfortable stay. The hotel staff were extremely kind and professional. Every question and need we had was met promptly and with a smile. From the reception to the restaurant and the spa, we felt the warm hospitality and attention to detail. The culinary experiences at the Mandarin Oriental, Lago di Como are world-class. Breakfast on the terrace with a view of the lake was one of our most delightful experiences, and the dinners at the restaurant offered exquisite cuisine and a rich wine list that satisfied even the most discerning taste. The hotel's spa center is a true oasis of relaxation and rejuvenation.

Our stay in Lago di Como was absolute perfection. This was our second stay at this property and cannot wait to go back. The property is stunning made better by the incredible views of the lake. The staff goes above and beyond for each and every guest making you feel at home. The spa services, restaurants and in room dining are wonderful.

A superbly managed and beautifully sited property in one of the loveliest locations in the world. The staff is exceptionally friendly (at times almost too much so, but staying just shy of the line of being overbearing). We were given an upgrade to a palatially sized suite. The only criticism...

A superbly managed and beautifully sited property in one of the loveliest locations in the world. The staff is exceptionally friendly (at times almost too much so, but staying just shy of the line of being overbearing). We were given an upgrade to a palatially sized suite. The only criticism I have is that the furniture is our suite seemed to have been designed for hobbits--it was all weirdly small scale and totally uncomfortable. It was frustrating not to have a comfortable place to sit in an otherwise lovely setting. This place is quite expensive, but I was sorry to check out.

Great hotel and overall good service. We enjoyed pretty much everything with the exception of the restaurant - L˜ARIA. Everything was very disappointing from the moment we entered the L˜ARIA restaurant: the welcome, service, coordination amongst the staff and most importantly the food.

Great hotel and overall good service. We enjoyed pretty much everything with the exception of the restaurant - L˜ARIA. Everything was very disappointing from the moment we entered the L˜ARIA restaurant: the welcome, service, coordination amongst the staff and most importantly the food. Should we never come back to this hotel, L˜ARIA restaurant will be the only reason “why”. It’s really a shame because the absolute 1st impression of the hotel was excellent.

A wonderful special weekend. I highly recommend if you are looking to stay in the best hotel in Lake Como. The rooms are stunning, overlooking the lake, spacious, attention to detail is flawless and the bed guarantees you a great nights sleep. The customer service is best in class, remembering...

A wonderful special weekend. I highly recommend if you are looking to stay in the best hotel in Lake Como. The rooms are stunning, overlooking the lake, spacious, attention to detail is flawless and the bed guarantees you a great nights sleep. The customer service is best in class, remembering you everytime you enter the bar or one of its fabulous restaurants. We were with a friend who loves martini's and he said it was the one he had ever had globally. Wine list is comprehensive and the food delicious. A visit must include the spa and swimming pool area, both the outdoor floating one but also the indoor one, which looks like it was built into the mountain with fabulous stone ceilings. There is a complimentary shuttle service into Como, needs to be reserved on the day, our driver was so knowledgable. This was our second stay, we are already planning to go back in October.!!

Faultless hotel. Amazing rooms - very high spec and spacious. Beautiful grounds and gardens. Lovely breakfast area 10/10 service from all staff members. Highly recommend in all aspects. The other side of the lake has more going on which is only negative but the views of the lake are stunning

Naturally, given this is Italy, a super stylish spot. Brilliant service - the amazing lake side restaurant by the floating terrace is unbelievable for lunch and the floating pool on the lake is stunning. Evening boat ride on the lake followed by dinner a real treat. Excellent local restaurants within...

Naturally, given this is Italy, a super stylish spot. Brilliant service - the amazing lake side restaurant by the floating terrace is unbelievable for lunch and the floating pool on the lake is stunning. Evening boat ride on the lake followed by dinner a real treat. Excellent local restaurants within easy reach - amazing local produce - the hotel pizzas are superb and the hotel bar have an award winning Negroni 👍 It does bother us that even in Italy, some gentlemen don’t think it’s appropriate to wear long trousers for dinner.

This place is beyond beautiful. The room and grounds are immaculate and the views are to die for. I see other comments about service glitches, but we didn’t experience any. All of the employees were fantastic. We visited a few other luxury hotels during our time in Como and I...

This place is beyond beautiful. The room and grounds are immaculate and the views are to die for. I see other comments about service glitches, but we didn’t experience any. All of the employees were fantastic. We visited a few other luxury hotels during our time in Como and I don’t think any measured up. Definitely recommend.
