ARIA Retreat & SPA - Lake Como, Italy
Overlooking Lake Lugano sits the ARIA Retreat & SPA, a member of The Leading Hotels of the World. This jewel property is built in the subtropical forest of Mount Bronzone and is our top destination recommendation for anyone looking to relax and connect with nature. The Milan architecture firm R4M was behind the environmentally conscious architectural project of ARIA Retreat & SPA.
Strategically located, the five-star hotel provides a convenient base for both relaxation and exploration. Situated just a 20-minute drive from Lugano’s city center in Switzerland and Menaggio in Lake Como in Italy, and a mere hour and a half drive from Milan Malpensa Airport, the property provides easy accessibility regardless of your travel purpose.
