The 17-room Hotel Il Perlo Panorama is known as the "Bike
Hotel” for the extensive biking and cycling services that it offers. This includes bike rental, repair, washing, trail and road maps, free bike
storage, and more. Its location outside the city of Bellagio makes it easy for guests to
take off on different bike paths, and also provides a romantic setting in the
mountains. The terrace on the green gardens and the on-site restaurant and bar provides
panoramic views of Lake Como. Some rooms also have the option of lake views
and a balcony or terrace. Though the rooms in this two-pearl property are dated, have an odd mix of decor, don't all come with air-conditioning, they are spacious and homey with flat-screen TVs.
