About us

The Barchetta Hotel is situated on the lake right in the centre of Como. The car can be forgotten about in the parking. The large windows look out onto the hustle and bustle of the city, there’s no need to even go out. Each season has something to offer, mirrored in the beautiful square outside: strolls and concerts in the summer, Christmas markets and children ice skating in the winter. Picture the lake with boats sailing dreamily away, while in the background the yellow funicular cab climbs the mountain up to Brunate. The boats leave from close by the hotel. The hotel has 84 rooms with a different view depending on the position: the back drop of Lake Como, the dome of the cathedral or the city. Rooms to be lived in, day or night. Spacious, light and tastefully decorated with large balconies. At the Hotel Barchetta we have two meeting rooms available: the Como Room, and the Cavour Room. They are perfect to host small and medium business meetings in a peaceful and reserved environment. Alternatively we have larger spaces and equipment available in the conference centre of our nearby Palace Hotel.

Villa Olmo is a neoclassical villa located in Como, facing the Lake. The construction of the villa, which began in 1797, was commissioned by marquis Innocenzo Odescalchi from Swiss architect Simone Cantoni. As it was designed to be a summer retreat for the aristocracy, it was built alongside the lake. It was acquired in 1924 by the municipality of Como and today is open to the public only during exhibitions, while the lakeside gardens are freely accessible during the daytime.

The "Castello Baradello" is a military fortification located on a 430 m high hill next to the city of Como. It occupies the ancient site of Comum Oppidum, the original settlement of Como, dating from the 1st millennium BC. Later it was one of the last Byzantine strongholds in the area, surrendering to the Lombards in 588. The castle was restored during the War of the Lombard League, with the help of emperor Frederick Barbarossa (1158), who officially donated it to the citizens of Como in 1178.

Strazzanti Sicily Experiences
Strazzanti Sicily Experiences
Scicli
Strazzanti was created by the 3 Strazzanti sisters with our youngest sister & professional Chef Emilia leading the experiences directly in Sicily. We continue the story and memories of our grandparents who taught us everything about our Sicilian and Neapolitan heritage. Growing up we understood our Italian heritage through them as people, their stories and by sharing, eating and cooking the dishes that they grew up with from their homeland and using the ingredients that our relatives would send to us in England from Sicily & Naples in small parcels. When our grandparents left us, it reinforced as a family that what they taught and shared with us is a huge part of our cultural identity, and we could not risk that heritage disappearing. Together as a family and working with other Sicilian families our passion is to give back to the land and work with like-minded young entrepreneurs, landowners and farmers in Sicily to keep this heritage and Sicilian traditions, which we all lovingly grew up with, alive.
