Hotel du Lac

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a truly special four-night Christmas break at Hotel du Lac in Bellagio. From the moment we arrived, the Leoni family created a warm, welcoming, and unforgettable experience for all their guests. On our first evening, we dined at Arturo’s Bar (named after the hotel’s founder), which was a delight. Enjoying delicious Italian food outdoors in the middle of winter was magical. Christmas Day was equally memorable, with a wonderful fusion of Italian and British cuisine at Gioia Restaurant, accompanied by breathtaking views of Lake Como. The roast turkey and homemade panettone were the best we’ve ever had. The beautiful spa was a real luxury, and throughout our stay we felt thoroughly spoiled — nothing was ever too much trouble. The attention to detail and genuine hospitality were exceptional. We loved our stay so much that we’ve already booked to return in April, and can’t wait to enjoy everything Lake Como has to offer once again.

We visited Bellagio in early November. Stayed at Hotel Du Lac. Located overlooking the lake next to the ferry pier. Weather was cool. Hotel is very clean and staff was super friendly specially those manning the reception counter. The management helped with a cake and drinks to celebrate my daughter's birthday at their restaurant. So cool!. We used the SPA. The lake view from the roof top bar was breathtaking. Breakfast was superb. Luggage store was at our disposal. Overall we enjoyed our stay here and was a memorable one. We couldn't ask anything more then this. We would recommend this hotel to visitors coming to Bellagio! Visitor from Malaysia!

We had the most delightful experience in this lovely family run hotel.The position was perfect,the room was superb,lovely restaurant for fine dining and a superb restaurant inside and outside for casual drinks and comfort food.The staff were superb. we had a lovely morning in the spa too! .Also i would like to mention how clean it was and we had the most comfortable bed and beautifully crisp cotton sheets.

An amazing place to stay in Bellagio. The welcome and the continued friendly helpful service was exemplary. The hotel is on the lake so in an incredible position. We got a room with a lake view which was so worth it! Breakfast came with the amazing view as well as delicious food. Our room was beautiful, a very good size and clean and made up beautifully every day!

We loved our stay at Hotel Du Lac in Bellagio. The staff went above and beyond. They were extremely friendly and helpful and made us feel like family. The breakfast buffet every morning with a view over the lake and mountains was a highlight. We enjoyed the same spectacular views from our room. The location was perfect directly opposite the main ferry station in Bellagio. We hope to return one day and stay here again.

absolutely loved my stay at Hotel du Lac! The view over the lake is just beautiful and makes the whole place feel so relaxing. The room was super clean and cozy, and I slept really well. The staff were so friendly and always happy to help with anything I needed. Breakfast was tasty with lots of fresh choices. Overall, it felt really welcoming and peaceful – I’d definitely come back again!

Overall, a nice quaint option in the heart of Bellagio. The reception staff were great - very friendly and helpful. Our room was clean, but basic. However, this was acceptable given the proximity to the town center and ferry stops. The views from the first floor dining room and rooftop bar cannot be beaten. Amazing! A couple of complaints to note: - The hotel allows loud music to be played at the outdoor lounge area at street level until 11pm. This consists of amplified singing and bass, and can be heard throughout the hotel. Consider this if you plan to go to sleep early. - The staff at the street level restaurant/bar was dismissive and unhelpful. We chose to eat and drink elsewhere.

Really enjoyed 3 nights in Bellagio at the Hotel Du Lac, a lake front hotel located directly behind the main ferry terminal which also makes it very convenient. Had a great partial lake view room with a balcony. Enjoyed included breakfast buffet and also dined at their restaurant one night that was very nice (sat in covered area in front of the hotel). Hotel staff very friendly and informative. Fun roof top bar.

*Important to note we did not stay at this hotel, this review is in regard to the water front and rooftop bar only. Visited the waterfront bar on our first night in Bellagio. It was lively and a good atmosphere. Service was good for what you would expect In Lake Como. The old fashioned was watery. The dirty martini was lemon based, so be prepared if you are more accustomed to olive. Too sweet for my girlfriend. We then got an Aperol spritz and Espresso Martini, both which were good and the Espresso Martini was a frequent drink throughout the next few days. Two nights later we made a reservation for the rooftop bar at the hotel. Simply go to the front desk receptionist and ask for a reservation. Each employee we encountered was very nice and helpful. On the rooftop the views are just incredible. I ordered a Passion Fruit Mojito, which might have been the best drink I've had in Europe so far(I never order mojitos but it was suggested by a fellow tourist, great suggestion). Again, the espresso martini and aperol were good as well. Highly recommend checking this place out. Service up top was very good and every employee we encountered was happy to take pictures for the guests.

We had a lovely stay at the Hotel Du Lac. The staff was outstanding. The young women working at the front desk (was so sorry I didn't get her name) helped us out with reservations, ferry schedule, you name it, she was there to help. She was wonderful. Our room was nice. The bed was nice and big and pillows comfy. I could never figure out how to use the thermostat so it was a bit stuffy in our room. The last night I slept with the window open and it was much cooler. Our patio overlooked the lake and had a small table and two chairs. Beautiful views to behold. Breakfast was ok. I missed the fresh fruit and made to order cappuccinos we received at other places. They have a great roof top terrace bar which was great. Again, outstanding views. The central location makes it ideal for hopping the ferry, going to the botanical garden or finding a place to eat. Very nice stay.

Love this hotel! Staff are friendly and accommodating. It's quaint clean the bedrooms have a lovely balcony overlooking the lake. Drinks are reasonably priced and it has a nice roof top terrace. It even has a spa which is included in your hotel reservation.

My husband and I chose Hotel Du Lac for our 3- night stay in Bellagio based on its location and Trip Advisor reviews. The location is perfect, on the street that goes along Lake Como, and directly across from the boat that takes you around the lake. The people who work there are very nice and super informative. They were quick to make lots of recommendations on restaurants nearby and circle spots on a map. They were also very kind about letting me practice my rudimentary Italian skills. We reserved a superior double room and were happy to have a bit of a lake view from our small balcony. I would have enjoyed a full lake view but most rooms had been sold out by the time I made my reservation. The room itself is small, and not terribly interesting. I really enjoyed sitting on the balcony and watching people pass by on the small street underneath. The bathroom was renovated with a nice shower, bidet, and heated towel racks. Breakfast is included and there is a lovely sitting area with a lake view. The breakfast offers a large variety of items, including eggs and bacon, cereal, fruit, and pastries. I had a couple of delicious sweet croissants. There is a beautiful terrace overlooking the lake on the fifth floor. There is a bar that was closed the first two nights due to weather. The third night we enjoyed cocktails on the terrace. Staff was friendly. It seems that the bar is only open for two and a half hours or so, but they let us stay there and enjoy the view for as long as we liked. All in all, the room is just ok, but location, staff, and extras make me recommend the hotel.

The hotel is in a great location and the roof top bar is fantastic with great staff and an amazing view. That is why I gave it 3 stars. What ruined the stay for us was the incredibly rude front desk staff. They would not help us with any travel plans, train tickets or tours. Also, the rooms over the restaurant smell like cooking from the breakfast and dinner. The smell trend my stomach. Also, you can hear everyone walking and talking in front of the elevator and going up and down the stairs. It was very noisy if you wanted to sleep late in the morning as the noise/talking etc started at 7am. I would skip this hotel and book the hotel Florence a few doors down. The front desk people there could not have been nicer and helped us when hotel du lac wouldn't.

We really had a perfect stay. The front desk concierge was helpful with a few bookings and also suggested the rooftop bar for drinks at sunset which became our standard fare. Morning breakfast was also quite a bit more than we expected with hot food, fresh pastry, lots of fresh fruit and salad, along with meats and cheeses. And of course, the room; just large enough with a balcony to relax and take in all the lake views. Really, it couldn't have been better-and at a very reasonable price.

Overall pretty bad experience 1. Terrible rooms - only some are updated, they don't tell you this and then call every room a Delux room. Half the rooms are not renovated and are extremely old. THE ROOMS ARE NOT AS PICTURED ON THE WEBSITE! 2. Bugs - I get it it's on a lake. But there are bugs all over the rooms, live ones and dead ones. 3. AC- didn't work! When we complained the said they had an 'engineer' come look at it but it was still broken! It was sweltering hot, we asked for a fan and they brought us one from the kitchen which smelled horrible and was super loud so we couldn't use it. Ultimately they brought us another one and we finally got to sleep super late. 4. Rude staff - the manager or whoever sits at the front desk was very unprofessional. When we informed him of the unrenovated room not being delux he started almost scolding us. Then when we complained about the ac in the morning he started almost threatening us with nonsense. Overall it was a pretty terrible experience. We will never stay here again and we recommend that you do not either.

My husband stayed here on our honeymoon way back in 1999 and we swore we would some day return with our children. Just returned (with a 14-year-old and a 9-year-old as well as my parents in their 80s) and were extremely happy with the service, the location, the room, everything. The views out the lakeside rooms are stupendous and of all of the hotels this one seems to get the least of the street/cafe noise. The hotel restaurant is the best place we ate in Bellagio, and we tried most of the recommended places we found on Yelp. Would heartily recommend this place to anyone and everyone.

In a country and city of fantastic restaurants, Belkagio's Hotel Du Lac's excellent upper level restaurant prevails due to the small number of tables, awesome views, remarkable food and gracious and attentive staff. Led by an informed and professional maitre d, the staff provided a fluid and exquisite array of food and wines. A must with reservations advised. Mangia!

A terrific location in Bellagio. Being lakefront is nice. Having breakfast or dinner on the veranda with a view is a must do. A very special spot. The food is good too. The service is very nice and they really pay attention to the details.

The location of Hotel Du Lac couldn't be any better! It is right across the street from the water taxi station, on the water front. The hotel has an elegant lobby and friendly staff. The breakfast served on the second floor overlooking the lake is wonderful way to start the day! The hotel was very quiet despite being on the main street and across from the water taxi station. The rooms are a nice size with modern bathrooms. The hotel was immaculate while we stayed there. My only detractor would be that the decor in the rooms is very dated and feminine (lots of pink and floral). However, you don't go to a destination like this to stay in the room! I would stay here again based on the location and service, but I'm holding back the 5-star rating based on the decor.

Fair. Best part was location and view of Lake Como from the room. But the room... we travelled with friends, booked our rooms at the same time and for the same price, but their room was twice the size. Not a single drawer so we lived out of our suitcases for three nights. Breakfast... scrambled eggs that were so runny there was a puddle on the plate. Frankly, they seemed like Egg Beaters. Staff was friendly and helpful. Still, if we return to Como, we'll find another place.

Their café out on the street was my favorite place to sit and watch the water. Best tiramisu in town, and trust me I've tried them all!

The Hotel Du Lac is exceptionally good. We have a nice large room overlooking Lake Como providing spectacular views in both directions. The staff here is absolutely the best I've encountered anywhere. My other half was sick upon arrival and the staff went out of their way to get her a cup of soup to help her feel better. They are truly concerned about her and offer assistance in any way needed. The Hotel Du Lac also has a beautiful roof top garden where you can bask in the sun. This is an all around winner.
