Hotel Villa Aurora is a 22-room boutique property located in Lezzeno, a quiet lakefront town nestled on the shores of picturesque Lake Como. Attentive owners provide a free homemade breakfast spread and exceptional service. The best rooms have private terraces with panoramic views of the lake and sun deck. On-site eateries offer a range of finely prepared Italian cuisine.

Nest On The Lake is a two-and-a-half-pearl bed-and-breakfast with a charming Italian vibe and some seriously gorgeous lake views from the four guest rooms and main terrace. This hotel exudes warmth in the homey decor and personal service from the owners. Rooms feature flat-screen TVs, kettles, and balconies. Some have air-conditioning or mini-fridges, and the apartment features a kitchenette. Free breakfast with cold items is offered daily, though it costs a fee for apartment guests. One of the best highlights here is a private rocky beach and free kayaks to borrow. Though there’s not much to do in this small village, it’s just a 10-minute drive to Bellagio. As an alternative, travelers might want to price the nearby Hotel Villa Aurora which has free parking and a restaurant on-site.
