Hilton Lake Como, the modern-lifestyle hotel on the edge of Italy’s most famous lake, invites jet setters to experience a ‘spring fling’ dolce-vita style this season. Hilton Lake Como is just 45 minutes from Milan by car, and with a four-day itinerary packed full of new activities, there’s no better spot for a long weekend beneath the Italian sun.
Designed to provide guests with a truly authentic local experience, the itinerary includes new experiences such as foraging, flower arranging and perfume making as well as iconic Como activities such as flying above the lake with Aero Club Como, picturesque sightseeing strolls and spoiling spa treatments. Guests will also have the chance to dine on delicious local food – including a brand new Nonna’s menu – at the hotel’s Streetfood pop-up, which returns from 16th April to mid-October 2025.
The Ultimate Spring Fling Weekender at Hilton Lake Como
Beginning in style with a private transfer to the property from Milan Malpensa International Airport, guests will check in to a sumptuous three-night, four-day escape. With a choice of a Premium Lake View room – where guests can wake up to the glorious sight of a seaplane flying over the lake – a romantic Loft Suite or a family-friendly Junior Suite or Family Deluxe, there’s a spoiling accommodation option for all at Hilton Lake Como.
The first full day will see guests tuck into a private in-room breakfast feast or sumptuous buffet breakfast at Satin restaurant, before embarking on a picturesque sightseeing stroll along the lake towards the city centre. Here, they will discover the top attractions of the area while making their way through ancient Roman streets: Villa Olmo and its lush park, Life Electric, the Aeroclub, Senigallia Football Stadium, Volta Temple, Cavour Square, and the magnificent Como Cathedral. Afterwards, guests can toast to their day with an Aperitivo, dinner and live music overlooking the lake at Terrazza 241, the hotel’s magnificent rooftop bar and restaurant.
The following day, guests will have the opportunity to live like a local with a range of authentic new experiences. They can choose from foraging in the scenic hills around Lake Como, flower arranging, perfume-making and even flight tours of the lake with the iconic Aero Club Como. Come evening, guests can make their way to the property’s Streetfood pop-up, where they will dine on woodfired pizza and the freshest family-style pasta dishes from the new ‘Nonna Menu’ by Chef Stefano Ghielmetti.
On their final day, guests can check in to eForea spa, Hilton Lake Como’s world-class spa and wellness centre, for a soothing massage or detoxifying facial, before being chauffeured to the airport by private transfer.
A New ‘Nonna’ Menu at Hilton Lake Como’s Streetfood Pop Up
From 16th April – mid October 2025, ‘Streetfood’, a real Italian market will pop up in the lakeside property’s Taffeta garden, providing an immersive and authentic dining destination for families, friends and couples alike. Visitors will have the chance to live like a local and indulge in a variety of delectable offerings within a relaxed and informal atmosphere, market-goers will be able to choose from several live cooking stations.
New for 2025, the pop-up will see the introduction of a ‘Nonna menu’, featuring a selection of traditional dishes from Executive Chef Stefano Ghielmetti’s own grandmother. Featuring classics including Lasagne alla Bolognese, Parmigiana di Melanzane, and Mondeghili (Meatballs) with Tomato Sauce and Basil, the menu offers diners the chance to enjoy classic family-style dining, crafted from secret family recipes that have been passed down through the generations.
Guests will also have the opportunity to shop at a mini mart selling Hilton Lake Como’s own produce, and select a delectable souvenir that will allow them to enjoy a taste of Como even after returning home. This includes olive oil, Terazza 241 gin and – new for 2025 – a selection of Streetfood pasta such as truffle tagliatelle, spinach tagliatelle and tagliatelle all’uovo (a simple pasta crafted with fresh eggs). Recipe cards from the Nonna’s menu will also be available, so guests can wow their friends and family back home with delicious Italian dishes.
Also available at the Streetfood pop-up, open to guests and locals alike:
- An Aperol Spritz cart serving up the most iconic of Italian aperitivos, known for its striking orange colour and delightfully bittersweet flavour – the perfect accompaniment to a streetfood feast!
- A Piaggio Ape Pizza cart with built-in wood-fired oven, serving a range of delicious pizzas complete with every topping imaginable.
- A Gelato cart in collaboration with the famed local ice cream shop, Gelateria Rossetti.
The Streetfood Market will run from 6pm until midnight, from Friday to Tuesday, with the exception of June, July and August, when it will be open every night of the week.
