Lake Como East Side is a hotel group located in Malgrate, on the eastern branch of Lake Como.
Founded by Fabio Dadati in 2012, it consists of the “boutique & design hotel” Casa sull’Albero, the 4-star Hotel Promessi Sposi, the Ristorante da Giovannino and the Bistrot & Lounge bar Giovannino.
The Casa sull’Albero, or Tree House, is a beautiful and unique design & boutique hotel overlooking Lake Como that makes understated beauty and sustainability its core values.
Built in 2013, it consists of 12 rooms/suites, bar and restaurant, gym, SPA, outdoor pool, meeting area, a park featuring centuries-old trees, private parking with charging stations for TESLA and other electric cars, e-bikes for hire.
The oldest hotel in the area, built in the second half of the 1800s on the Malgrate lakefront, it was completely renovated and is expected to be reopened in 2021.
The new hotel will be innovative but will uphold the charm of time by combining the very modern new areas with the historical body at the same time. It will be a 4-star luxury hotel with 70 rooms and suites, with a restaurant and bistro & lounge bar with roof garden, event and wedding area, garden, meeting area, gym and SPA, private parking with charging stations for TESLA and other electric cars, e-bikes for hire.
Inside the Hotel Promessi Sposi, we wanted to create an elegant and bistro & lounge bar on two levels, on the ground floor and on the outdoor rooftop terrace of the hotel, which boasts a uniquely beautiful view and is connected to panoramic elevators.
The Ristorante Da Giovannino is located in the most beautiful location of the eastern branch of Lake Como, on the lakefront of Malgrate, in front of the Hotel Promessi Sposi, and offers a unique and exciting view at all times during the year.
Already featured in the first Michelin Red Guide in 1956, the restaurant overlooks the lake, with a large window that offers an unparalleled view every day. During the summer, the outdoor terrace takes center stage, and the design décor offers an elegant and convivial atmosphere.
Custom-made curtains made of iron wire and fabric allow for private spaces ideal for private events or business dinners, while ensuring the unparalleled view. The Ristorante da Giovannino is a place where you can relax while enjoying good food and good wine.
A lake loved for the particularity of the two branches, the surrounding mountains, the green of the woods mirroring in its water, the mild climate, its unique villages, art and culture, sport.
The western branch, which ends in the city of Como, the eastern branch that, once arrived in the town of Lecco, returns to be the Adda river and then lake Garlate and Olginate and after there river again.
The eastern branch of Lake Como, where Lake Como East Side is located, is the most authentic and preserved by mass tourism, amazing for the surrounding high mountains of dolomitic nature reaching up to over 2,400 meters of height: the Grigne, paradise of hiking lovers and rock climbers.
Beautiful trails immersed in the woods of the mountains of the eastern shore of Lake Como offering landscapes of uncomparable beauty.
The village of Malgrate looks at Lecco with its lake and peaks that encircle it with a glance that takes your breath away.
Lecco, home of the writer Alessandro Manzoni, who deciced to set his Italian literature masterpiece in his city: The Betrothed.
Villages and great cultural sites, just think of the ancient Romanesque Abbey of San Pietro al Monte, the ferry of Leonardo da Vinci on the Adda river, the medieval village of Corenno Plinio, Varenna and the close hamlet of Pescarenico in Lecco.
Industrial culture and history like that of Moto Guzzi in Mandello del Lario, which still fascinates motorcyclists from all over the world with its timeless models.
Lecco and Malgrate are located in a very lucky position: a step away from Milan, just 40 minutes by train and by car, a fifteen minutes drive from the ski area of Piani di Bobbio with its 40 kilometers of slopes, unless one hour from Switzerland.
Lake Como eastern branch is worth to be experienced: suitable for water sports with long and beautiful beaches.
