Marriott International has signed an agreement with Bain Capital Credit and Omnam Group to bring its Edition Hotels brand to Lake Como in 2025.

Owned and developed by Bain Capital and Omnam Group through a fund managed by Kryalos SGR, The Lake Como Edition will comprise 145 guestrooms – including two penthouse suites – as well as a lively lobby bar, floating pool, and multiple restaurants and bars overlooking Lake Como and the Bellagio mountains.

The property is set within a 19th century building on the western shore of the lake, a short drive from central Milan. It will be converted into a luxury lifestyle destination that brings new life to the region while honouring the history of the building and its rich heritage.

“We are excited to work with Bain Capital Credit and Omnam Group to introduce the Edition brand to one of Italy’s most beautiful destinations,” says Josh Fluhr, Senior Vice President & Managing Director at Edition Hotels. “Today’s signing demonstrates guests continued demand for luxury accommodations and experiences.”

Fabio Longo, Managing Director, Bain Capital Credit, comments: “We are delighted to launch The Lake Como Edition with Omnam and Marriott International. We seek to invest in under-penetrated real estate markets and the Edition brand fills a gap in core leisure markets for differentiated luxury lifestyle hotels and enhances our real estate portfolio in Europe.”

David Zisser, CEO of Omnam Group, explains: “We look forward to bringing the Omnam flair to this unique location and celebrating the natural beauty of Lake Como. This is Omnam’s fourth development in Italy and as always, our team strives to create new experiences while remaining true to the special heritage of our surroundings. Our goal is to create sophisticated luxury that invites everyone to experience and enjoy. Together with Bain Capital Credit, we are excited to team up once again with Marriott International and to bring this vision to life.”

The Lake Como Edition will expand Marriott International’s footprint across Europe, where it currently has a portfolio of over 719 properties with more than 137,500 rooms across 25 brands. Edition itself currently operates 15 hotels globally in: New York and Times Square New York; London; Miami Beach; Tampa; West Hollywood; Barcelona; Bodrum; Shanghai; Sanya; Abu Dhabi; Dubai; Tokyo Toranomon; Reykjavik; and Madrid.
