- Situated in the centre of Bellagio opposite the main boat landing stage
- Panoramic roof terrace with sunbeds and beautiful views of Lake Como
A Citalia favourite for over 40 years, the Hotel Du Lac is situated in a small piazza of Bellagio opposite the lake's landing stage from where the boats and hydrofoils operate.
In addition to its delightful history, Hotel Du Lac owes much of its charm to the owners, whose wonderful hospitality, personal service and excellent home cooking extend all the way back to 1956. Soon after the Leoni family became the proprietors, the hotel had already become such a popular venue for afternoon tea at the weekends that fleets of boats had to sit patiently before finding a space at the landing stage! Its founder, Arturo Leoni, would signal from the terrace with a flag to notify one of the boats when a table under the portico was free. The lake views are outstanding, especially from the first floor restaurant and attractive roof garden.
The lively café-bar, set under the porticoes on the ground floor, serves snacks at lunchtime and is a lovely place to sip a coffee in the afternoon or enjoy a chilled drink as evening approaches.
The Hotel Du Lac’s ideal position in the main piazza near to the landing stage ensures guests can easily visit the beautiful towns surrounding Lake Como by ferry and enjoy some of the most picturesque views.
The hotel has 42 rooms (official rating 3 star) Child prices apply to ages 2-12 years. Minimum stay 3 nights.

About the location
Holidays to Bellagio have long been associated with luxury, opulent architecture and unrivalled natural beauty. Often recognised as one of the most stunning destinations in the world, Bellagio, commonly referred to as the Pearl of Lake Como, is one of three towns in the Golden triangle - the others being Menaggio and Varenna.
Lake Como is
Italy’s third largest lake and the picture perfect pre-Roman town of Bellagio is the perpetual favourite for holidaymakers seeking to experience the unwavering charm that this enchanting town has to offer. Even with its partially steep streets, exploring the small town can be done on foot or by bicycle, though local busses, water taxis, ferries and even speedboats are alternative options to explore further afield. Popular for its water activities, rowing, kayaking and kite surfing can also be enjoyed on Lake Como’s calm waters.
Back on land, numerous boutique shops selling jewellery, clothes, antiques, porcelains and potteries line the mazy cobbled streets. Culinary delights, typical of the Lombardy region, can be sampled in the main piazza’s waterfront bars and restaurants, accompanied by local wine harvested in North Lake Como and Montevecchia. Famed for its panoramic snow-capped views of The Alps, tree-lined slopes and romantic garden views, Bellagio is also known for its villas, primarily Villa Melzi and Villa Serbelloni.

Hotel du Lac is one the best hotels I have ever visited. The hotel is very clean and perfectly placed in Bellagio. The best part, however, was getting to know the family that runs the hotel and spending time with them on the roof garden. They were so gracious and even envied us out one night. While there are many hotels in Lake Como none of them offer an experience like Hotel du Lac. It is a MUST STAY and we hope to return soon!

You must look no further than Hotel Du Lac. We stayed in July 2020 (myself and the wife) and it was the best part of our trip to Lake Como. The family that runs the place is just amazing. Incredibly friendly and helpful. The rooms were beautiful, the terrace INCREDIBLE and breakfast view unbeatable. The breakfast there was the best we'd had on our trip; and even if you're not staying at the hotel, you absolutely must go for drinks at sunset on their roof. We would recommend it to everyone.

It???s work the trip along a narrow, winding road to reach the hotel with its friendly staff, large airy rooms, and lovely terrace. We had a good dinner in the 1st floor terrace restaurant. Ours was a very short stay and we noticed that familie with small children and dogs seemed to like the area.

The location is perfect, in the heart of bellagio right by the boat. The hotel is fantastic! The pictures dont do it justice. The quality of the rooms and reception are incredible. The family who run the hotel go over and above to make your stay special, nothing is too much trouble, they really add value. We had an incredible room overlooking the lake, I highly recommend the extra spend to do this. Every morning I woke up mesmerised. The pool was closed however the family kindly let us use it anyway, there was no service but we took some drinks and had the pool and tennis courts to ourselves.
Just the most amazing trip. Bellagio is the place to stay, so many restaurants and shops and the centre of the key towns for boat trips. Also if you are worries about COVID, the staff at the hotel and all around wear masks, it's really quiet there so adds to the beauty of the place and the businesses are so grateful for your custom. Also the food is top notch in Como. Best italian food i've ever had.
