OUR STORY: From the Grand Tour to Your Modern Escape
A Legacy of Elegance & History
The Maioliche Apartments are situated in the historic heart of Griante,
Cadenabbia, a location that defined the "Grand Tour" for European elite.
Since the late 1700s, this sun-drenched shore has been a sanctuary for
luminaries like Giuseppe Verdi , who found inspiration for La Traviata in
these very streets, and Queen Victoria , who favored the central lake for its
microclimate. Our name, Maioliche, honors the vibrant, hand-painted
Italian tiles that have adorned prestigious lakefront villas for centuries,
representing a bridge between artisan heritage and the warmth of a private
home and we were very much a part of the early trade on the lake.
While we honor our 17th-century surroundings, the Maioliche has been fully
reimagined as a premier Boutique Aparthotel for the modern traveler with
all the needs of home. We have transitioned from a traditional residence into
a collection of spacious air-conditioned/heated apartments that prioritise
independence without sacrificing service. We offer you the rare convenience
of a large, on-site private garage parking (at a fee) and are directly beside
public open air parking site. We are within a few minutes walk to public
transport, this allows you to explore the central lake with total peace of mind
of maximising your time at Lake Como.
Today, our apartments blend contemporary amenities—like high-speed WiFi,
a fully equipped kitchen with the timeless lake views that made Cadenabbia
famous. Perfectly positioned just steps from the Cadenabbia Ferry Terminal
and the historic Greenway del Lago, we provide a seamless experience
where you can enjoy the independence of an apartment with the added
luxury of booking bespoke services, such as private boat tour, dinning
experiences, airport shuttles and pet-friendly accommodation.
At the Maioliche Lake Como, you aren't just visiting Lake Como, you are
becoming part of its enduring history in your home on the Lake..
