Hotel Aurora

Lake Como


In the heart of Lezzeno (the longest village on Lake Como), 11km southwest of Bellagio, this is a comfy family hotel in a village off the mainstream tourist radar. Singles look inland but the best doubles have balconies with lake views. Across the road, take breakfast with a lake breeze in the hotel restaurant.

Just below the restaurant, the hotel has sun loungers along a wooden boardwalk and access to a whole range of water activities.
