Hotel Loveno: Authentic Lake Como Lodge

Book directly on their website so this local business keeps more of what they earn.

A more local side of Lake Como

Hotel Loveno sits in the first hills above Menaggio, offering a more authentic way to experience Lake Como, away from the busier lakeside towns.

Set between lake views and mountain landscapes, the 2-star hotel is located in a residential part of the area where local life continues beyond tourism. It is spread across a historic building dating back to 1904 and a second structure from the 1950s.

Open from April to mid October, with a minimum stay of 2 nights, it is a place for those who value calm, simplicity and a more local perspective of the region.

Low impact by design

From reducing waste and limiting single use plastics to working with local suppliers and making thoughtful day to day choices, the focus is on keeping the impact of the stay as low as possible. Small decisions, from energy use to sourcing, are made with the area in mind rather than convenience.

Experiencing the region

From cooking classes and wine tastings to yoga sessions, e-bike rides and golf nearby, experiences can be arranged directly through the hotel. Guests can also spend time hiking in the surrounding hills, cycling through nearby villages or exploring the lake itself. The location makes it possible to experience both the well-known highlights and the quieter, less visited side of the region.

Part of everyday local life

Hotel Loveno is closely connected to the community around it. The team is fully local, from the owners to the staff and the suppliers they work with, creating a network that reflects the area itself. Being based outside the centre also means experiencing how the area functions, from smaller villages to ways of life that are not always designed around visitors. Quiet hours from 22.00 to 08.00 help maintain a more restful environment. Transport can be less predictable, but this is part of experiencing Lake Como beyond its surface.

Story behind Hotel Loveno

Hotel Loveno is run by Sara and Paolo, a family team with strong ties to the area.

Sara grew up between Gravedona and Menaggio and her connection to the region shapes how the hotel is run today.

Rather than offering a standardised stay, they have created a place that reflects the reality of living here: informal, personal and closely tied to the local community.

A hotel you didn't want to leave! We spent 2 nights at this beautiful place and it was gorgeous! We had very tasty breakfasts with a beautiful view included in the price! Our terraces in block 2 were just incredible! We were in rooms 14 and 15. In room 15, the bathroom is outside the room right in the corridor. But this did not affect the quality of comfort at all. There was a sink in the room. Very comfortable mattresses. Very quiet! Special thanks to the staff - it is clear that the hotel is loved and cared for!

Such a lovely hotel with wonderful and kind staff. It’s tucked away from the business of town but still very walkable every day. A uphill on the way up- we would definitely recommend a taxi to the hotel with your bags the first day but after the walks we’re very doable for my husband and I (we are in our 30’s). The delicious breakfast every morning was really nice, we could enjoy that then plan our day without feeling rushed or hungry for food. We would absolutely recommend the pasta class the hotel offers- it was a blast learning from Paolo and getting to taste our creations after with delicious wine on the garden patio. We will absolutely stay here again on any future trips to Menaggio! Thank you Hotel Loveno for a beautiful stay.

We spent 6 nights at Hotel Loveno and had a wonderful time. Paolo and the team are great: professional, attentive and super helpful. Room was simple but clean with an amazing view of the lake and mountains. Breakfast was great and included in price if you book directly. We ate dinner there a few times and it was great: simple pasta dishes but home cooked and fresh with good wine list. We did a wine tasting with Paolo which was well worth it. Amazingly, it’s only 2* but definitely 5* service. Highly recommended
