Grand Hotel a Villa Feltrinelli

Gargnano, Italy

The 19th-century Grand Hotel a Villa Feltrinelli, with its castle-like facade, makes quite the impression on the banks of Lake Garda. Inside, the grandeur continues with sky-high ceilings, sweeping staircases, and just 20 uniquely styled guest rooms complete with frescoed ceilings, period furnishings, and decadent fabrics. No wonder, given it was once Mussolini's private home. While the lakeside setting, framed by manicured gardens, olive groves, and lemon trees, offers instant serenity, there’s also an outdoor pool and a 'regeneration lounge' if you need a quiet moment to yourself, with treatments courtesy of big name skincare brand Tata Harper. Meanwhile, the restaurant is helmed by Stefano Baiocco, whose CV includes stints with Alain Ducasse, the Adrià brothers, the Roca brothers, and Quique Dacosta, to name a few.
