What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Filario Hotel & Residences is housed in a former wire factory that’s been cleverly recycled into a luxury hotel with an infinity pool…
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Lezzeno offers a quiet lakeside setting, with Bellagio and Villa Balbianello just across the water.
The rooms
Every room opens onto a private terrace facing Bellagio, with slate bathrooms and minimalist timber paneling.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The heated infinity pool juts toward the lake, surrounded by a stone deck with views across the water.
Filo Restaurant
Chef Alessandro Parisi serves seasonal Italian dishes on the open veranda, with candlelit tables overlooking the water.
At the table
Down on the pebble beach, Yeast Side serves craft cocktails and gourmet pizzas right beside the water.
How it began

The name fuses filo, the wire once manufactured on this site, with Lario, Lake Como's ancient Latin name.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.

Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
