I am quite late in writing this review, as I stayed at Hotel Centrale in late October 2022, just one day before they closed for the season. However, the hospitality and charm of this hotel has stayed with me throughout the winter season and I want to give credit where credit is due and thank them for a wonderful one-night stay. When I arrived at the hotel, I was immediately greeted by Ramón, the cheerful black Labrador Retriever who clearly is boss. From the ivy-covered entryway to the flower-and-tree-filled courtyard, I immediately felt transported to a serene place despite how “touristy” Bellagio can feel. Hotel Centrale is operated by a family and so it’s easy to feel welcomed, both in communication with them in advance of your stay (book directly for good prices and service!) and once you have checked in. Since I was one of only a few guests there, they assigned me their best single room, which included a small balcony that overlooked the courtyard. In the evening I received a wonderful recommendation for a pizzeria (Antico Pozzo – there was a line outside before they opened which included plenty of Italians, so I knew it would be delicious!). The next morning, I enjoyed a simple but tasty breakfast with handmade espresso. Everything was clean and comfortable, and when it was time to leave, I didn’t want to board the ferry for my next destination, Como. It was a special experience to chat with the family about their gorgeous village as the tourism season winded down. I can’t wait to return to Lake Como sometime soon, and when I do, I absolutely will stay here again. It’s a small paradise in a busy place, operated with love (and occasional barks).
