Fodor's Expert Review Villa Fiordaliso

A fine restaurant and five tastefully furnished guest rooms are housed in the pink-and-white lakeside villa given to Benito Mussolini's mistress, Claretta Petacci, by Il Duce himself—indeed, the expensive Claretta Suite is probably where they conducted their affair. The Art Nouveau restaurant features seasonal ingredients like zucchini blossoms and porcini mushrooms, especially in salads and soups; for even more romance, dine outside, beside the lake.
