USA | Lake Como has been selected as the next location for Edition's latest property, in collaboration with Omnam and Bain Capital.

Lake Como, with its placid turquoise waters surrounded by towering, sharp-peaked mountains, has been one of the most dreamt-of destinations in the world for centuries. EDITION, part of Marriott Bonvoy's portfolio, Omnam Investment Group, and private investment firm Bain Capital boldly reimagine this storied locale with the opening of The Lake Como EDITION, marking a radical departure from traditional Lake Como hospitality.

The property introduces elegant tastemakers and global travellers to a new vision of lakeside luxury that pairs culinary excellence with a groundbreaking wellness spa offering cutting-edge longevity and rejuvenation treatments. The striking interior spaces, brought to life through a collaboration between EDITION, design firm Neri&Hu, and architects De.Tales reflect this bold new chapter in Lake Como's legendary history.

Lake Como is the 21st hotel location in the brand's collection, which spans the world from Tokyo to London, New York, and Riviera Maya. EDITION arrives on the sought-after shores of Lake Como, with its signature talent for turning a hotel into a must-visit destination.

"This opening marks a new era in the EDITION story, where the timeless glamour of Lake Como converges with a new generation of luxury," said George Fleck, Senior Vice President and Global Brand Leader, EDITION.

"Renowned for its elegance and cultural prestige, this iconic destination provides the perfect canvas for our most captivating chapter yet, a defining moment that reflects EDITION's continued evolution on the global stage. The Lake Como EDITION represents the next frontier for the brand, setting a new benchmark for contemporary luxury defined by individuality, sophistication, and a strong sense of place."

"The opening of The Lake Como EDITION marks a significant milestone for Omnam and Bain Capital, bringing our shared vision for transformative hospitality to one of the world's most breathtaking destinations," said David Zisser, CEO of Omnam.

"Our goal has always been to create a sophisticated luxury experience that seamlessly blends with Lake Como's natural beauty while remaining welcoming to all. We are incredibly proud to see this vision come to life and to add this remarkable asset to our growing portfolio."

Along Lake Como's picture-perfect shoreline of majestic villas and Italian gardens, EDITION has revitalised a hotel first built in 1830 with a refined design. Situated on Lake Como's western coast in the town of Cadenabbia, the hotel faces the stunning promontory of Bellagio across sparkling waters, where Mediterranean flora meets snow-capped peaks. A formidable addition to the storied glitz of Lake Como, EDITION injects stylish new relevance to the classic Italian concept of villeggiatura the tradition of extended leisurely stays in the countryside or by the water that has long been at the heart of Lake Como travel, drawing aristocrats, intellectuals, and celebrities to its shores for fresh air and a dose of natural splendour.

A scenic journey from Milan's world-renowned fashion and design scene, The Lake Como EDITION is poised to become the region's most compelling new gathering place for international tastemakers, local cultural innovators, and creative minds. While honouring Lake Como's heritage as a sought-after retreat, EDITION reimagines this legacy for today's modern traveller, offering spaces designed for both intimate connections and vibrant socialising, from sunrise wellness sessions to late-night entertainment. The property serves as both a serene escape and a dynamic destination where Milan's innovative energy meets Lake Como's timeless allure.
