Fact Sheet
COMO Hotels and Resorts celebrates individual spirit. Our hotels and resorts worldwide are entirely different from each other while sharing respect for exceptional cuisine, meaningful wellness, contemporary design, local culture, environment and service. We also strive to deliver experiences that are unique to you and the country you are visiting from our city hotels in London, Miami Beach, Perth and Bangkok, to island retreats in the Maldives, Turks and Caicos and Thailand, from wild lodges in Bhutan s Himalayan valleys to our wellness resort in Bali. This anti cookie-cutter approach is what makes our special events stand apart, from high-profile weddings on one of our private islands, to corporate events or incentive trips. Whatever the scale, we obsess about the detail, turning ambitious ideas into unforgettable, fuss-free occasions. Page 2
