Sansiri Capital Expands Hospitality Portfolio to Lake Como, Italy
Former Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin has publicly praised Sansiri Capital’s latest investment in a luxury hotel property located on the shores of Lake Como, Italy.
On September 3, 2026, former Thai Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin shared his support for Sansiri Capital’s recent acquisition of the Lake Como EDITION hotel in Italy. Srettha, who has personal experience in the hospitality investment sector, noted that he happened to be visiting the property at the time of the announcement.
According to Srettha’s social media post, the hotel is situated in Cadenabbia (Griante) on the western shore of Lake Como. The location is noted for its direct view of the Bellagio Promontory, offering vistas of the historic pastel-colored town and the lake. Srettha expressed his understanding of why the investment team selected this specific site, citing the unique atmosphere and high potential of the location.
For travelers and residents, this development highlights the growing international footprint of Thai-based real estate firms in the global luxury tourism market. The acquisition of a high-profile property in a premier European destination like Lake Como may signal a strategic shift for Sansiri Capital toward diversifying its assets in international hospitality.
While the former Prime Minister has confirmed the investment and his personal visit to the site, specific financial details regarding the acquisition cost or the operational timeline for the hotel under its new ownership have not been disclosed. Further updates regarding the property's management or potential renovations remain to be confirmed by the company.
