ABOUT US
Hotel Ristorante Pizzeria Lumin was established in 1993 in Cremia, on the western shore of Lake Como, as a small family-run business dedicated to traditional cuisine. Over the years, the structure has gradually evolved: from the original venue focused on pizza and homemade specialties, it has grown into a full-fledged three-star hotel with an adjoining restaurant.
Today, the hotel offers 28 spacious and bright rooms, furnished with modern comforts such as air conditioning, satellite TV, and a minibar. The materials used for the furnishings are elegant yet understated, while the atmosphere remains warm and family-friendly. The Rava family has always managed the hotel, welcoming guests with both friendliness and professionalism.
The hotel's hospitality reflects its family-run character: the Rava family ensures attentive and cheerful service from the moment of check-in. The hotel also offers various wellness services: in recent years, the property has been completely renovated and now includes a SPA area with a sauna, Turkish bath, and hot tub. Breakfast is served every morning on the terrace or in the garden overlooking the lake. The generous buffet includes fresh fruit, homemade cakes, cereals, and eggs.
Lumin’s cuisine is rooted in the Larian and Italian culinary tradition. The hotel’s pizzeria-restaurant offers homemade dishes with meat, seafood, and lake fish menus. Guests can enjoy their meals on the veranda or in the garden, admiring the lakeside view. This attention to quality and the local area is reflected in guest reviews: many highlight the “exquisite cuisine” and breathtaking view, describing the restaurant as a highlight of their stay. Another standout feature is the sun terrace directly overlooking Cremia beach, giving the hotel a privileged and peaceful location, ideal for both families and sports enthusiasts.
Over its three decades of activity, Lumin has become integrated into the region’s tourism landscape. Thanks to its lakeside location, the hotel often serves as a venue for sports and recreational events. For example, in 2018, the Lago di Lugano Sailing Club held the “SWISS CUP” regatta in front of the hotel, featuring windsurfing, slalom, and windfoil races. These initiatives show how the hotel actively collaborates with local associations to promote lake tourism. At the same time, the restaurant enhances local products – from typical cheeses to dishes featuring herbs grown in nearby valleys – reinforcing its connection with Larian culinary culture. The management also takes part in local events and community life, periodically organizing theme nights, tastings, and special dinners (such as for Easter or Ferragosto), which are featured on their company blog.
Today, over 30 years after its founding, Hotel Ristorante Pizzeria Lumin stands as a landmark for tourism in northern Lake Como. It remains a welcoming, family-oriented place where Como’s culinary traditions meet the warm hospitality of its hosts. Guests are happy to return, drawn by the unique combination of simplicity, friendliness, and quality that defines the hotel’s offering.
