With 21 rooms, 52 suites and two separate villas, the 19th century Villa Roccabruna is the heart of the resort. Overseen by interior designer Eric Egan, rooms were given a refresh with contemporary Italian updates and “subtle oriental charm”.
For more informal dining, guests can sit on the outdoor terrace overlooking the lake at CO.MO Bar & Bistrot, and nurse an Italian aperitivo and snacks.
At L’Aria, the menu is contemporary fine dining and Mediterranean cuisine.
The spa features a selection of heat and water experiences inspired by the Lake Como, and four private spa suites, beauty studio and fitness center.
Mandarin Oriental, Lago di Como opens April 15.
