Hotels with Swim-up Rooms in Como

Relaxing stay with a beautiful view overlooking Lake Como. Room was huge, well deigned… this was our second stay in 6 years and the property was just as memorable the second time around. Pool and honesty bar were great amenities as well.

breathtaking views and pool area. great staff and lovely breakfast

Beautiful location with a fantastic view. The rooms were clean and nicely decorated. Everything you needed, mini bar, snacks, large safe for your notebook. Lounge chairs and towels @ the pool. Breakfast served to you on the Patio

Superb interior design, brilliantly well equipped kitchen, quality bedding, lovely indoor and outdoor space and every bedroom huge and gorgeous, generous extras like lovely honey, Nutella, loads of coffee. A really special place for a treat. We loved it. Short walk downhill on cobbles to village, steep walk up (if you've got older people in your group), otherwise a nice bit of exercise. Local restaurant 2 mins walk away

Our stay in Casa Santo Stefano was just perfect. The location is great, the design of the whole Casa and the rooms is unbelievable, not to mention about the host. He is very kind and helpful. The breakfast included a variety of goodies, all handmade and delicious. There is a private parking also. Highly recommended.

This is an absolute jewel of a hotel. Owned by four brothers (two manage this one, two manage Il Vapore across the tiny piazza), there is a small and incredibly dedicated and friendly staff who do everything from help with luggage to wait in the restaurant. The room we had was large and gorgeous, with an incredibly comfortable bed. Best of all was the large terrace we had with spectacular views of Lake Como, Como, and Cernobbio on the other side of the Lake. The restaurant is fantastic. We ate there 4 nights, the other night we ate at their sister restaurant Il Vapore. Torno is a tiny town — blink and you’ll miss it — you need to walk quite a ways from the only parking lot (and down many many steps) to reach the tiny, beautiful piazza on the lake. Il Belvedere was our home for 6 days. We have traveled extensively and this is by far our most favorite hotel. We will definitely be back.

Il Belvedere is located in small town called Torno on the shores of the Lago di Como. Location of the hotel is right on the shore and you have a look on the small marina with boats. Room had a lake view on the forementioned marina. Staff is exceptional: a) we were a bit late after the check-in time because of a crash on Milano highway but there were no problems, they even helped us with carrying luggage from the car to the hotel because parking lot is hundred meters from the entrance to the hotel, b) we were able to reserve a late dinner, c) on the short notice they helped us with printing tickets for Fiera Milano. Great service all together. Restaurant is cozy, dinner meals were delightful and wine was good. I would recommend it if you want to be away from the bigger cities like Milano or Como, right at the lake, with great view on the lake and surrounding mountains.

Breakfast was more than we needed. The one was like young woman who staffed a breakfast service was so friendly and always had a smile on her face. We had room the room concordia. Blew us away with the water view on three sides of the room. the room was amazing, the housekeeper, as we passed her, always had a smile on her face. Staff at the reception desk always had a smile on their face and were more than accommodating. This hotel exceeded our expectations. We ate dinner at bar Italia across the parking lot, as the restaurant was closed the day we arrived. We did eat dinner in the restaurant the rest of our stay. Staff in the restaurant were so friendly and accommodating. The food I would give a 10 out of 10. We cannot say enough good things about this hotel. We are looking to book next October to come back.

The Il Belvedere is a true oasis of peace and tranquility. You will be greeted warmly upon arrival and cared for with genuine sincerity throughout your entire stay. Located directly on the lake, you will experience a visually picturesque and auditory feast from all angles! The property is perfect for relaxing and point of return from exploring which is easy to do through various means of reliable transportation available. The Il Belvedere is an extension of its natural environment, both rustic and elegant. You feel connected with the vibe of the lake and its town, Torno. And the cuisine of both of their restaurants is amazing!!!

Everyone in the staff was exceptionally friendly and hospitable. From the minute I stepped inside, the lovely ladies at reception were expecting me and prepared for all the ‘wish list’ I had messaged them about prior to arrival. The dinners at the restaurant were exceptional- delicious, friendly staff and incredible views of the lake. During the day when you want to explore around the lake, the hotel is located in front of the ferry stop. And if you want anything outside the menu of the hotel, the cafe nearby has everything. Do not hesitate to book here, I will definitely be back again

Bellissimo! We’ve just had the most wonderful four day stay at Hotel Lago. From the second we arrived everyone at the hotel has been so welcoming and helpful. This family run hotel is a wonderful retreat after busy days around Lake Como. The hotel is very modern, clean and bright. The rooms are spacious and have everything you need including the most spectacular views of the lake and the mountains from your room 😍. Service is so personal. Annette and Maria who looked after us were so helpful and friendly. Breakfast was fresh with a variety to choose from from fresh fruits, the best pastries to meats/cheeses and much more. We had dinner in the the hotel one evening and the standard and quality was excellent. Sitting on the bar terrace at the end of a busy sightseeing day watching the sun go down was breathtaking. There is a busy stop just outside of the hotel which was perfect and we used this every day to get where we needed to. Roberto, the owner along with his family were wonderful and they should be very proud of what they have created. We hope to be back again. Grazie Mille! Xx

This is one of the best hotels in Lake Como area. Amazing service , amazing hotel room with amenities , amazing restaurant. I travel a lot and have stayed at Aman hotels and Four Seasons. We were a family of 8. Booked 2 large family rooms. It is better than any hotel I have stayed at. Family that runs it is amazing. I interacted with owner Roberto and son Ricardo the most. The service they provided went above and beyond. Hotel room was very new and updated. View was stunning. Restaurant food was unbelievable. We are there twice infact. Better than Villa D’este across the lake. I would give it 10 stars if I could. The Singh - Bedi family would like to thank Hotel Lago for an overall excellent stay, kindness towards our kids and 10 star service and Michelin level food. Trust me. Stay here and you won’t regret it.

What sets this hotel apart from many others is that it is family run, and ran with love and every attention to detail. The father and son duo Roberto and Ricardo made our stay wonderful. The rest of the staff feed off their love for the hotel and region and added to our exceptional experience staying here. The rooms are spacious, the amenities are plenty, the bed is the most comfortable we stayed in Italy, and the views from the room are breathtaking. We felt like part of the family. Although a car is not needed nor for the faint of heart I suggest one to head out and explore the neighboring towns. Also recommend having the hotel arrange a lake como boat tour, go for the 4 hr tour and take in the views from the lake. This hotel is a gem cut into the Italian mountainside.

This was the nicest, cleanest and most luxurious hotel we’ve stayed in while traveling through Europe. It’s a boutique hotel so they get to know you personally. The staff is wonderful and helped us make our way around town. We met the owner and he was unbelievably kind and takes a lot of pride in the property. The rooms were so thoughtfully designed. The shower is huge like a 5-star hotel (not typical in Europe). The breakfast was wonderful and you can sit with a view of Lake Como. All the rooms have an amazing view of Lake Como also. We rented a car and the parking was super convenient. Just a short drive to center of Bellagio or Como. The town of Torno is cute and not as busy. We would absolutely stay here again!

Exceptional service and warm atmosphere – highly recommended! I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly polite, welcoming, and always ready to help. Their attentiveness made me feel truly cared for. The room was spotless — everything was exceptionally clean, neat, and very cozy. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was immaculate, and every detail showed care and professionalism. A special highlight was the restaurant. Dinner was an absolute delight. I’d like to give special thanks to Maria, our waitress, who was simply amazing — kind, always smiling, and extremely courteous. She made every dinner feel like a special occasion. Overall, I was very impressed and truly enjoyed my stay. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for comfort, cleanliness, and genuinely great service.

Excellent service. Asked for recommendations for dinner and drinks. Spot on all three times. Super helpful staff. Can’t fawn enough over them. Hotel located in walking area. We parked at the autosilo which was only a four minute walk. If you have a van it can be kind of tight in the parking lot. Area of hotel was safe, easy walk to water. Contact hotel before you arrive and they will arrange boat tours and experiences for you. Room was really nice and a great shower. Can’t speak for the A/C since it was only 70 degrees outside and early April (so heat hasn’t been turned off). We turned off the heat, opened the room balcony to cool it down (and it did.) and relaxed. Beds and pillows very comfortable. Breakfast normal euro fare and good, with a special cake/pastry each day. I would recommend and return.

A gem of a boutique hotel.. Stayed 3 nights in June and from the moment of arrival to departure it was a fantastic experience.. The staff were great and made us feel welcome on every occasion..Special thank you to Nicoletta whose warm, friendly and genuine manner made our stay truly a home from home.. The hotel was spotless and comfortable and in a brilliant location to restaurants, Lake Como ferry, shops and more. The rooms where well appointed and beds very comfortable and linen spotless.. Great sleep each night and although hotel is central there was zero noise( a rarity in most places).. The breakfast was delicious and of high quality ingredients and the waiting staff polite, helpful and courteous.. Overall truly a 5 star experience and would recommend this hotel in a heartbeat..Really enjoyed Como, the food, the area and the hospitality from the Italians.. Grazie Mille

Cute boutique hotel in the heart of Como. Our stay included free breakfast which included amazing restaurant quality options. Stayed in Blue Room on ground floor. The room was a good size and it had an outdoor private patio seating area. Might not be the best room for light sleepers as the room is near the restaurant kitchen and storage areas and the noise from staff accessing those areas travels into the room. However if you’re a light sleeper just choose a room on a higher floor and you won’t have a problem. Overall great stay with warm staff and an unbeatable breakfast. Will stay again next time in Lake Como.

We traveled with a group of 16 and just about filled the hotel. Diana was just amazing, and professionally and kindly took care of our every need. She paid attention to every detail and offered very helpful information along with great local suggestions. We looked forward to speaking to her each morning at breakfast (which was also good). The hotel was very charming and beautifully decorated. The rooms were spacious and clean. The hotel was in an excellent location to many shops and restaurants and was very close to the water’s edge. The outdoor seating area was also very nice. Highly recommend!

Just returned from a 4 night stay in this fabulous hotel. Tucked away but right in the old walled town of Como close to the lake, Cathedral and lots of incredible restaurants. Spotlessly clean, comfortable and a great breakfast included. But the real highlight is the staff. All were lovely, kind and nothing was too much trouble. Special thanks to Dianna and Nicoletta whose welcome and recommendations for where to go and restaurants were just fab. We had a lovely surprise from the staff on our wedding anniversary too. Highly recommend for a Como stay or a base to explore further afield.

I went to Como on a road trip. I could not book any of the famous hotels in the area. I also had a toddler so I needed to stay near supermarkets etc. I booked Como Hills on a whim, not sure what to expect but the room was very clean and the shower was very strong. Most of all the staff under the current manager (July, 2025) made everything super efficient. They were all attentive, alert and kind. Right now I am staying at a hotel at another city which cost 100x more than Como Hills per night but all the staff is so horrible that I told my husband maybe they need to replace all of them with the team from Como Hills (no joke)! Highlight : the swimming pool had a rubber mat underneath for soft landing, and several tiers of baby pool depth levels : the combo was so perfect for my toddler who is learning to swim with me this summer. I have been all over the world and in many hotels : both casual and lux but this pool, was designed so perfectly for kids (families) maybe other famous and super expensive hotels should come and study it.

From the first warm welcome at reception to the thoughtful check-out, the staff made the stay truly special. They were not only professional and courteous, but genuinely caring—always ready with a smile, quick to offer help. The rooms were a highlight in themselves: spacious, modern, and beautifully furnished with an eye for both comfort and style. I loved the clean, minimalist design paired with cozy touches—plus, everything felt fresh and well-maintained. What sets this hotel apart are its amenities. With 11 padel courts, both indoor and outdoor, it’s a dream for sports lovers. The pool was equally impressive—clean, quiet, and perfect for relaxation. The breakfast was excellent, offering beverages, fresh fruits, pastries, and made-to-order options. They offered us a free ride to the nearby train station, which was a thoughtful extra that made local travel effortless. In short, Como Hills Hotel goes above and beyond in every way, whether you're here for leisure, sports, or a mix of both. I couldn’t recommend it more and can’t wait to return.

We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel. Francesco, the manager, is exceptional with guests, Raj is a wealth of knowledge on Lake Como’s best dining and sightseeing spots, and Gaia at the front desk is simply lovely. The restaurant team was outstanding, especially the host, and every detail of our stay felt personalised. They even helped me plan my engagement proposal, arranging a private boat and photographer hire – a memory we’ll cherish forever. The padel courts were fantastic and became part of our morning routine, while the food was outstanding from breakfast through to lunch, dinner, and poolside snacks. I truly can’t recommend this hotel enough.

The hotel is centrally located in Como, close to the market, public transport, and the harbor. Our room was spacious, with a balcony overlooking the pool, and equipped with modern furniture and a coffee machine. The staff were very kind and welcoming. A special thanks to Gaia, who guided us personally from the main road to the hotel a wonderful gesture. We also appreciated the thoughtful gift card. Overall, a very comfortable stay with excellent hospitality.

Nice staff at the reception and on the territory. Everything is comfortable in the rooms - pillows/mattress/shower/balcony/view. There is an elevator. Free transfer to the center of Como and paid transfer to/from the airport. Excellent area with sun loungers by the pool. There are additional beach towels in the room. The staff carried the luggage to the room - now very few hotels offer such a service.

Friendly staff and nice food. Good, clean and quiet room with nice bathroom. Up a slight hill to the hotel so a peaceful location. If you need to stay around Como itself then this is a good location although you can't swim in the lake here as the waters are busy. There is a Lido area on the lakefront with a small pool.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful hotel on Lake Como in Italy, and I can't recommend it enough! The experience was made extraordinary by the incredible staff, particularly two outstanding employees who truly went above and beyond to ensure our stay was memorable. Farah, one of the hotel's employees, was an absolute delight. Her cheerful demeanor and eagerness to assist made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. She was always ready with a smile and willing to help with any request we had, making our stay incredibly pleasant. Another remarkable staff member was a gentleman with dark skin whose name, unfortunately, escapes me. His exceptional kindness and helpfulness truly saved the day for us. During our stay, a marathon event caused road closures, making our planned route to the airport impassable. This incredible employee took it upon himself to guide us on the best alternative route, ensuring we made it to the airport on time and didn't miss our flight. His dedication and assistance were invaluable and deeply appreciated. The hotel's beautiful location on Lake Como, combined with the exceptional service provided by its staff, made our stay unforgettable. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a clean, delightful and stress-free experience in one of Italy's most picturesque regions.

There were so many things to like there. We were welcomed by friendly front desk staff and taken care of the entire time. Our room had a nice little balcony with table and chairs, flower boxes and view to Lake Como. Complimentary waters in the mini fridge each day appreciated. Air conditioning in the room. Very clean hotel with ample space for our length of stay. Wonderful restaurant included that is worth a reservation if you stay here. Elevator available. Parking on site available if you get there before the dinner crowd. (Parking is limited and tight but doable and gets crowded when dinner guests arrive). Lovely breakfast provided. The scenic walk down the hill to the lake and town center only takes about 10 minutes. Coming up, it might take a couple more minutes but it's not as exhausting a walk up as I thought it might be. Very doable.

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at La Vignetta Cernobbio! The hotel is truly one-of-a-kind, offering a unique charm that makes it stand out. The rooms were incredibly cozy, with breathtaking views of the lake that made every moment special. The location couldn’t be more perfect, making it easy to explore the surrounding area. The staff were phenomenal, going above and beyond to ensure a fantastic experience. A special shoutout to Ash, whose exceptional service and kindness really made our stay unforgettable. Everything about this hotel was flawless, and I can’t recommend it enough! Rating: 5/5

The hotel is completely renovated. New large elevator. Beautiful renovated rooms. We got a room facing the lake, second floor, amazing view. Hash from the reception was very helpful and explained how to get to the parking lot by email, as well as how to check in independently. Amazing attitude, wonderful person. The only problem is that the parking is for an additional fee and there is no choice but to take the parking because there's no parking on the street.

We really enjoyed our 3 night stay at this lovely hotel. The room was spotlessly clean, spacious, and comfortable, and the hotel staff were all so helpful and friendly. It's in an ideal location- you can easily walk to the waterfront, the train station, and many restaurants and shops. Our room was on the third floor- we had two skylights in our room (no regular windows)- at first I though this would bother me, but since there was so much natural light (and we weren't in the room much) I didn't mind- but if you want regular windows you may need to make sure you request that. Also- we didn't realize breakfast was included until the last day of our stay- so make sure you ask if it is included (they didn't tell us when we checked in.) Even with these little glitches, I'd still give this hotel the highest rating since it was excellent in many ways.

We arrived at Como Lago train station, so had an easy 5-minute walk to the hotel alongside the Teatro and Duomo. Location is very good, just off Piazza del Duomo, and is only a short walk to the lake. Welcome at reception was friendly and efficient – have to add that all staff in the hotel were attentive and always ready to help. Room was very clean and well appointed – albeit bed takes most of the space in the bedroom. Breakfast was to our taste, predominantly continental selection. Also enjoyed a relaxing drink in the hotel bar next door, Bottega Comacini.

This hotel is outstanding. From the moment we stepped in we were treated with care, warmth and attention. The hotel is modern, fresh and the room was phenomenal (we booked an executive double) with a wonderful view of the Duomo. The bed is very comfortable (firm mattress) and the bathroom, particularly the shower was great. We had breakfast in the hotel and there are lots of choices. The cappuccino we had with breakfast was the best I had throughout my whole stay. If you like modern, boutique hotels with friendly service then this is for you. We will definitely be back!

The DBH hotel is an absolute gem. We had a fantastic week and Carlo and Thommaso on reception really looked after us. They are so friendly and helpful and couldn’t do enough for us. They even gave us extra tea bags and helped make a reservation at a local restaurant for our wedding anniversary. Our room directly overlooked the Duomo and was amazing and comfortable. The breakfast was perfect and the little courtyard was nice to sit and eat breakfast. The breakfast staff were amazing and so friendly and worked really hard.

We had a lovely 3-night stay at DBH hotel, booked for us by our travel agent at Cultural Italy. This newly renovated 4-star boutique hotel is located in a quiet location and easy walking distance to eateries, shopping, and the pier. Tomasso at the front desk was very helpful booking us a 2-hour private boat tour of Lake Como. The breakfast assortment (can be eaten indoors or outdoors) was delicious, and our triple accomodation (Room 9) with balcony was newly renovated and very clean. Highly recommend!

We liked everything, the breathtaking view of the lake, the excelent dinner and a very good breakfast... Just an information for the potential guests, there is a very difficult to get to the hotel, a narrow steep road full of turns, the are also dangerous places here.You need to have a good car or motorcycle and be very careful. The host very nice and helpful..

The property was perfect for our stay near Lake Como! it had a beautiful view of the lake (the best in my opinion) and a restaurant which was fantastic - the food was amazing! book in advance to get a good table with the best views. the staff were great! So helpful and friendly, really making you feel at home. I’d definitely recommend this hotel!

The view from the balcony overlooking Lake Como was absolutely stunning! Although it was an additional cost, it was worth every penny. The highlight of our stay, however, was the evening dinner with a reserved table—an unforgettable experience. The Carpaccio was hands down the best we’ve ever had! Delicious food, professional service, and an incredible atmosphere. I would return just for that supper

Beautiful auberge with an amazing view on the mountains and lake como. Our room was very comfortable, cutely decorated, and had all the necessary amenities. Very peaceful, and refreshing from the busier towns down at the lake. We really enjoyed having a little balcony with the view. It was also very practical to have the free parking onsite.

Absolutely everything. Unbelievable location, incredible view, wonderful service from the staff, spectacular food, and generously priced. It's the most pleasant surprise we have ever had on a holiday trip - we felt like we were in a dream. Our enormous thanks to our hosts - we very much hope to come back someday, to this little piece of paradise.

We are a family of three and have just returned from a four night stay in Como , visiting for the Monza Grand Prix. What a wonderful weekend in a beautiful part of the world and our stay was genuinely enhanced staying at this lovely hotel!! The owners are a lovely couple and are actively involved in the day to day running of the hotel. They cannot do enough to make your stay memorable.The place is quaint, extremely clean and everything is well presented. Our room was on it's own on the third floor which was great, even having it's own bistro table and chairs on the small tiled open corridor to sit out and enjoy a coffee/etc. Bed and pillows were extremely comfortable, the linen and towels quality. Breakfast was more than adequate with cereals, fruit,ham,cheese,eggs,toast, juices, etc and coffee made to order and lovely fresh pastries. We ate at their restaurant here a lot for dinner, mainly as we were tired in the evenings after long days activities and you can just step out of the hotel and dine in the balmy open air in a wonderfully calm atmospheric square, with great attentive staff. The food was really good, especially their pizzas and there is a good selection of wines and everything was very reasonably priced considering the locality. Lots of other bars and restaurants a short walk away if required, but we felt why bother. Would certainly recommend and confident we will return. Grazie mille

My parents and I decided to take a trip to Italy and go to the Italian grand prix, our hotel being included in our package. I am so fortunate we ended up staying here. This quaint hotel is perfectly located tucked away in a cosy square in Como. The hotel is family run and theres something about that makes the stay so much more enjoyable. The staff were incredible always having the time for us or our needs. They made us feel so comfortable and welcome from night one. They were all amazing!! The rooms themselves were always clean and the facilities were top notch and we came across no issues. The hotels restaurant was also amazing, breakfast was always fresh and even in the morning the staff greeted us with a smile!! Then in the evening the food was not only well priced but it was amazing. Excellent service and great food, I could recommend any dish!! Mario (a staff member here) always made our nights great with his hospitality and him just being genuinely fun and likeable. I will definitely be returning and if you are thinking of coming near this side of Italy, I would definitely recommend here!!

This is a stylish and small boutique hotel with comfortable and tastefully furnished rooms all to a high standard. From the moment we arrived we felt welcome and relaxed. All the staff were polite, friendly and so helpful and couldn’t do enough for us. The owners Sara and Andrea , Paola and Palo gave great suggestions for our itinerary and were on hand in reception , we stayed three nights and our room tended to daily and spotlessly clean. The location of the hotel is perfect! 4 mins to the Cathedral, 4 minutes to the lake , ferry stops, ten mins to the main train which was so easy from Milan airport, and minutes to amazing views!!! Set in a small piazza it is tranquil yet a few steps to the livelier main squares! Breakfast was plentiful and we ate two evenings out of three nights in the hotel’s restaurant, the food was fabulous and reasonably priced as were the wines and beers! We loved staying here, thank you to all the team!

Loved our stay in this family hotel run by Sara, Andrea, and Paula. Our room was large and beautifully renovated with a large bathroom and quality towels and quality sheets on the large bed. Unfortunately, the air-conditioning was playing up, but the staff couldn't do enough for us and promptly brought us up a pedestal fan. The breakfast was ample and fresh every morning. Coffee was made fresh and was delicious. Easy walk to the lake and ferries as well as to the park and funicular. Shops, cafes and restaurants all near by. The restaurant of an evening served quality food and was very busy most evenings. Our waiter, Mario, especially was fun, attentive, hardworking, and efficient. Made our evening there memorable. In conclusion, I would recommend this hotel.

It was a really lovely stay! The location is great — tucked away in a cozy courtyard surrounded by beautiful buildings. It’s pretty close to everything you might need, from the lake to the train station. The staff was just amazing. The lady at reception gave us a quick tour and personally walked us to our room, which isn’t something you see very often. The room seemed recently renovated, so everything was super clean and cozy. The bed and pillows were also incredibly comfortable. Breakfast was nice. Some might say it’s a bit “dry,” but from my experience, it’s a fairly typical Italian breakfast — lots of sweet options, fruit, and more. I thought it was good!

This hotel was booked for us via an agency and we could not have been happier. I am hard pressed to offer a 5 start to any review so it is a testament in service and experience rounding up to a 5. The rooms are effectively modern while maintaining some of the original rustic charm. Bedding was the best of all hotels during a journey through northern Italy. Staff members were amazing, friendly and had much insight to offer about the local area. Rooms were stocked with high end amenities and toiletries, enough so my wife has ordered from the brand. Rooms and bathrooms are absolutely functional and privacy is top notch. It didn't seem to matter what time we returned to the room for a daily break, it was cleaned and made up before we returned, every day. The attached cafe' presents what I would qualify as the BEST inclusive breakfast I have had the pleasure of partaking in. Cafe' staff always took time to assist, explain or suggest breakfast options. I have been a Hilton customer for three decades. Had I made reservations myself I would have no doubt booked the Como Hilton and in doing so, would have destroyed the chance to experience what I found to be the most charming, well located, professionally run hotel in Como. Had I booked the Hilton I would have had a long walk or taxi ride to experience what Avenue Hotel offers just outside of the doors.

The Avenue Hotel had been arranged for us as part of our package for the Grand Prix at Monza. We arrived early in the morning and were given an extremely warm welcome, our rooms were not quite ready but we were able to sit outside for a coffee and decided to have a breakfast. This was delicious, the service was excellent. Both ours and our friends' rooms were on the ground floor which were spacious, our room was an accessible room and although we did not need this, it was fine. Everything was spotlessly clean, plenty of towels, toiletries were supplied. There was tea and coffee making facilities as well. We had breakfast each morning and there is a great selection of fresh croissants, meats, cheeses, yoghurts, cereals and hot choice available. The hot breakfast is cooked to order and were very good. The location is excellent, a short walk through the town to the lake where there are boat excursions and also a short walk to the Funicular railway. An ideal location. However what was outstanding is the hospitality shown to us from the minute we arrived until we left, it was incredible, all staff were so friendly, very helpful and we could not fault them in any way. Valentina was particularly helpful to us and again her interpersonal skills with everyone was fantastic. We would definitely return and highly recommend this little gem in Como. thank you to everyone there who made our stay so enjoyable .

The property was in a perfect location. Just close enough to the main piazza but just far enough to be away from the crowds and noise. The rooms were extremely comfortable and the bathrooms had abundant amenities. There was a great shower too; powerful and hot! While we did not eat in the restaurant, we did thoroughly enjoy the food at breakfast. There were numerous delicious choices and the food was plentiful! We could barely finish! We loved the outdoor restaurant too! That where we had cocktails and an afternoon pizza. Excellent! Lastly, the staff was outstanding. They could not have done more to try to make our stay as enjoyable as possible! They were warm and welcoming in typical Italian style. We’d like to give a big shout out to Valentina! She literally made us feel like family! We highly recommend this property! We will return!!

Perfect location right in the middle of the city. Because of its excellent location access by car is difficult via pedestrian streets. Parking is a 600 yard walk away and costs 25€ per day , we found this a little inconvenient. The hotel is spotlessly clean. The hotel is in an ancient building renovated to the highest standard, the rooms are individual and well designed with every amenity. The window in our room was small so the room was dark. I did check out other rooms and in some they only had ceiling windows. Breakfast is probably the best that I have enjoyed anywhere. A selection of cooked to order and buffet items served by friendly staff either inside or outside on a heated terrace. Reception staff were very friendly and helpful. We loved the place and are looking forward to revisiting in the near future.

I stayed here for a long weekend to watch Il Lombardia and then participate in the Gran Fondo. The hotel is very nice and located on a quiet street in central Como, and only a minute from the shops restaurants, bars and shops. A 5 minute walk will see you arrive at Lake Como. The staff were excellent. They were all approachable and friendly, and helped with any questions I had. I had a single room, but this was very well equipped, clean, tidy and perfect for my stay. The food here was lovely as well. Sitting outside the front of the hotel enjoying their lovely coffee and watching the world go by was great. I will be back to Como next year, and I’ll definitely look to stay here. Very much recommended.

This hotel is beautiful & immaculate & the views are spectacular. Our deluxe room had a balcony with unobstructed views of the lake. The bed was very comfortable. The lounge is small and intimate with a wraparound patio with beautiful views of the lake. Such a wonderful place to end our days and the hor d’oeuvres they served complimentary with the drinks were beautifully presented and very good. Breakfast was delicious with many fresh options to choose from. We also had a delicious meal in the restaurant Raimondi with fresh whole fish for two that melted in our mouths. The service was top-notch by everyone from the front desk staff, the restaurant, and the lounge. Luca was a huge help weeks before we arrived helping us arrange our memorable vacation with airport transfers, restaurant reservations, other transportation requests, and he answered any questions we had very quickly. He really eased our mind since we were coming to Lake Como for the first time from the US. In the lounge, Giovanni served us delicious drinks we had every evening to toast our wonderful days. We are so happy that we discovered and selected Hotel Villa Flori for our Lake Como stay!

I simply loved the fact that it was a separate lodge and we had privacy.Also the view was absolutely stunning! The whole lodge was very logically split, every room had a purpose and was logically connected to the other rooms, so every person staying there, had their privacy and comfort.The option of having breakfast brought to your room it's excellent! When we stayed here, it was still cold outside and couldn't enjoy the private minipool or the huge terrace, but i bet during summer it's stunning! I love that they have electrical external blinds, and the kitchen is fully, but FULLY equipped, wich is lovely, because you literally have everything you need if you want to spend the time indoors. The parking is also spacious and safe.The breakfast is absolutely delicious.You have many options, the charcuterie is great, also the bread is wonderful, it tastes like home ❤️ Last but not least, the staff was nice, polite and attentive. Thank you very much for making our stay here a beautiful memory.

My husband and I stayed here 3 nights in March. Although the weather was cloudy and rainy our stay at Villa Flori was superb. The breakfast was delicious with offerings of bacon and eggs as well as an entire table of pastries, yogurt, and fresh fruit. During the rainy parts of the day we hung out in the lounge and had drinks and snacks. The hotel staff went above and beyond when I lost my earring down the sink drain and retrieved it for me without hesitation. The front desk was happy to call for a taxi whenever we needed it and we never waited more than 5 minutes. This hotel is close to Como and a 10-minute drive from the central train station. About a quarter-mile down the walking path from the hotel is a dock to get on the boat that can take you all around Lake Como (buy tickets in advance if possible.) We would definitely stay here again.

This was our last stop after being in Italy for 3 weeks. Lake Como is magical! Even though were there in early November, this hotel was perfect. I can't imagine how busy this hotel is during the summer season. I fell in love with the Lake at this time of year. We felt like we had the hotel to ourselves. The service was amazing from the time we checked in to the time we check out. Our room was ready upon arrival. It was cleaned daily with such care and precision. I highly recommend having Appertivo's at the restaurant daily. Breakfast was also wonderful to have on the terrace over looking the lake. We would stay here again if we wanted to stay at the southern part of Lake Como. It is an easy walk to town and we discovered an amazing local restaurant Osteria La Tavernetta which was a 7 minute walk.

Our stay at Hotel Villa Flori was exemplary from start to finish. Mattia (the concierge) was so welcoming, friendly and hugely knowledgable and helpful. He was so kind to us throughout our stay (for our ten year wedding anniversary) and made it so magical and extra special. The junior suite that we got upgraded to, was beautiful and so roomy and the bathroom and balcony, plus the walk in wardrobe were fabulous. The view from our room took my breath away! The room was so clean and smelled so fresh and the huge bed was so comfortable. The hotel amenities were 5 star - namely the bar (we had drinks here every evening & the staff are so friendly) and the breakfast was so delicious (particularly the scrambled egg). We didnt eat in the restaurant while we were there, but the views out to the lakeside gardens are spectacular. We cannot recommend this stunning hotel more highly.

Spaceous, designed around guests needs regarding public areas. Bar at lobby & helpfull stuff there. Reception & bellboys were great. Car garage was spaceous & nicely accessible. Huge pool with jacuzzi area, large terrace at the pool, showers & changing rooms at the pool, restaurant, service & hospitability, very clean in general. Location of the hotel. Helpfull & pleasant stuff issued pool toys for kids. We could stay longer at pool & terrace for a lunch & relaxation after being checked out & we could keep a car in a garage during that period. Food at pool restaurant was amazing.

Stayed for 5 nights in April. Overall great stay, hotel was fantastic - we were upgraded to a junior suite which had plenty of room for 2 adults + 2 kids. Room was on 1st floor with views towards the lake and across to the funicular. Room was spotless and cleaning was great, incl turn down service. We also had a bottle of Prosecco delivered to the room which was a nice touch. Great selection at breakfast. We didn’t eat any other meals, did have a couple of drinks in the terrace bar which was nice but pricey. Pools were great - unfortunately weather wasn’t so good but the indoor pool (available for families 9-12 every day) was ideal for a couple of hours. All staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. The location is 20 minute walk from the station / ferries. There’s a path along the lakeside which is a much better option than the pavement / road which is pretty narrow and busy. There’s also a bus stop right outside the hotel- both for local buses but also handy for Tremezzo/Menaggio.

Wonderful experience even just one night stay at Lake Como Hilton Hotel. Check in was efficient, we were offer with a glass of Prosecco upon arrive at the check-in counter. Positive experience. The guy who check-in is very friendly, smiley, and also informative and he even share with us the pool temperature is 29c We went up to the pool, the view is amazing! See the photos. We walk to the main town which is 20min away. Is a long walk. But we look the town area. Breakfast at 9am and was busy. Quality food from buffet and also food from menu, food taste was good. Standard European service with everyone busy and lack of attentiveness. Will be back next Spring or Summer.

Was nervous about booking this hotel since it was not "on the lake" and I was worried about the view. But I was pleasantly surprised to walk into a very new, trendy hotel with floor to ceiling glasses and nice decor. Room was clean, large, and I had a good view of the mountains and partly the lake. The strong feature was the rooftop pool and restaurant - unlike other "poolside" restaurants, had a fine dining dinner experience here with a great wine selection and good food. Highly recommended.

We loved our stay at Lake Como Hilton hotel. The rooftop bar and restaurant was definitely the highlight had the most outstanding view of the lake. The cocktails were fabulous too! A couple of things that brought my rating down for this hotel was that we were requesting to pay 400 euros deposit on arrival that I was not made aware of prior to check in. I know that it is common practice to take credit card details at check in but never have I been asked to pay a deposit even though the room had been paid for in full. Also the rooftop heated swimming pool and jacuzzi facilities were available to us but there was an extra charge for nearly 40 euros per person to use the indoor spa facilities for 3 hours (indoor pool, jacuzzi and sauna) which I have as a resident of a hotel I would expect this is be part of the facilities available during our stay.

Property was conveniently located on the lake, easy access from major roads. Being immediately on the lake means parking on arrival is a little dicey, but the parking garage for the property is just up the road and convenient if available (limited spots). The hotel is directly across from an embarkation point for lake transportation which is a major plus if you are carless. There are several locations within driving distance for access to pools and "beaches" but they are not free, and only reachable by bike or car. Walking along the lake road is high risk during daylight. The in house restaurant is very good and stays busy and provides a nice morning breakfast. The rooms are adequate and very clean, and several members of the staff are very pleasant!

Everything about our stay was lovely. The staff was super communicative and responsive to our needs even before we arrived. My husband and I were in Como for a friend’s wedding and this hotel came recommended by a local friend - it did not disappoint. Apart from its convenient lake-front location across from the ferry, the staff is what truly sets this place apart. Family run hotel staffed by wonderful and caring people. Theresa at the front desk was a gem and took great care of us from arrival to departure. Lucky for us, there was a cancelation and she quickly upgraded us to a room with a beautiful balcony and view of the lake. The room itself was spacious, airy and felt like home. We also had lunch and the restaurant which also proved to be an enjoyable experience, excellent food, great wine and attentive service. My only regret was forgetting to snag one of the homemade panettone’s that they bake and sell daily on the premises. We will definitely be back!

We stayed at Hotel Posta for 5 nights in October 2025. Throughout our stay all the staff were very welcoming, informative & helpful making our visit a pleasure. Our room (20) was delightful with a lake view & balcony. The room was tastefully decorated with character items, a large en-suite, mini bar fridge & facilities for tea and coffee. The room was pleasantly warm during our stay & well serviced daily. Breakfast was buffet style with a good selection & many locally sourced/made foods, all delicious, coffee & a few hot options were served to order. We also ate in the hotel restaurant (La Veranda) and the menu also reflected local produce beautifully presented. The location is quiet although with a ferry station opposite the hotel access to the Lake areas was really easy. Secure underground parking was also available. Good wi-fi provided  Overall we would highly recommend Hotel Posta particularly for the warmth of the welcome & quality food. Grazie mille

We have come to Italy for 3 days for a special birthday. On night 1 we wanted a nice restaurant that was relaxed and welcoming. Seeing the family history of Hotel Posta made it the obvious choice. We were not disappointed… It was quiet (which was to be expected at this time of year) but the staff were really helpful, explaining all the dishes and leaving just the amount of time between courses. And the food was incredible. We had fish from the lake and Bresaola followed by Veal and Perch. Cooked to perfection and washed down with a light and tasty bottle of house red. For pudding the obvious… homemade Tiramisu (WOW) and an Irish coffee. An incredible evening but it didn’t stop there. When no taxis were available we were offered a lift to our hotel by the owners wife. Thank you so much and an amazing first night!

This is a charming, quaint, family owned hotel with staff that is knowledgeable, professional and extremely helpful. Moreover, it is centrally located- directly across the street from the water taxis that can take you anywhere in the Lake Como area. The hotel has a buffet breakfast with eggs to order. At night, their restauant has an excellent selection of all foods at reasonable prices. I had the sea bass one night and the pasta with boar ragu the next - both were excellent. Next door they have a smaller place specializing in pizza, salad and great gelato. Armondo is an excellent source of information and can arrange car service to anywhere you might want to go from a nearby restaurant to the Milan airport. He is a grat source of information which is extremely helpful to tourists and visitors alike. I wholeheartedly recommend this establishment which has been in existence since the 1930s.

We stayed here for the last night of our honeymoon after two nights in Bellagio and arrived somewhat bedraggled following a ten minute walk in the rain from the Como ferry station. (It seems that hailing or booking a taxi on the fly in Como is as difficult as we had heard). We were greeted by two staff on reception who were absolutely lovely and got us checked in and on our way to our room in no time. Having dumped our bags, we made our way down to the bar/cafe/breakfast room for a couple of negronis. The lovely woman on reception was just going off shift and spent some time with us in the cafe which was great as we are both learning the language. Our room on the second floor was excellent. Clean, spacious and complete with tea and coffee making facilities. The bed was very comfortable with quite a firm mattress. The shower was fab. The hotel is located approximately 10 minutes on foot from the centre of Como and 5 minutes walk from the Como San Giovanni railway station. Although slightly off the beaten track, there are at least a couple of great places to eat within a couple of minutes walk. We ate at the very popular "Pizzeria in Borgovico" (the menu of which goes way beyond pizza) which was excellent. The "Figli dei Fiori Bistrot" is right next door to the hotel and is, by all accounts, very good too.

This hotel hits A+ in all categories. We arrived via train and it was a 5 minute or so walk. This turned out to be a blessing, as our friends that were traveling with us (they booked another hotel further away) told us they could not get a taxi. Would have hate to have to drag our luggage further than 5 minutes! The front desk staff were superb. English speaking. Check in/out process was simple. They also made restaurant recommendations. Our room was comfortable, nice beds, large closet for storage. The bathroom and shower were very clean and nice. Air condition worked well and kept us cool. Breakfast was included in the room rate. We enjoyed a good variety of pastries, meats and cheese. Yogurts and a hard boil egg machine for freshly hard boiled eggs. That was a treat! Also enjoyed the cappuccino made each morning. They also had a terrace area for relaxation with view to a lovely aqueduct. The location is on a small and quiet street. Not a lot of traffic. It is not lake front, but within 10 minutes walking distance. We found a market nearby.

I made a last-minute booking for this hotel after a sleepless night at a nearby hotel where the advertised A/C did not exist (even in May, Como gets warm). This hotel was more expensive, but getting a night of blissfully cool sleep in total silence and 65 F degree A/C was worth it. So I can confirm, this hotel has very good A/C! Even apart from that, this is also just an overall pleasant hotel that I'd return to if I ever were in Como again - it is on a fairly quiet street, so minimal loud vehicle traffic, but the location is still easily walkable (under 10 minutes) to the train station, lake, and central part of the town. The rooms are spacious and clean and quiet, and there is a lovely greenhouse/semi-outdoor patio area open for guests (which was nice to sit in after check-out rather than train station for 2 hours). Breakfast is also included in the rate - it wasn't the best hotel breakfast I had in Italy, but it had standard yogurt/pastries/toast/coffee etc that were fine.

The 1 night stay in Como was wonderfull, outstanding, because of the hotel staff and the cosy clean french room that we have. Even though the weather was chill and rainy, our stay was perfect because of the Borgo Antico Hotel . We will have such a beautifull memories about Como again , thanks to the Borgo Antico Hotel. We appreciated both the lady that helped us with the check in and gave us good recomandations , and the gentelman from the chek out, who waited us with a very very good, tasty and varied breakfest at a very early hour, The room and the entire hotel was so clean , we had a very good night in a very comfortable bed. The location was on a quiet street in the city center, close to the tourist attractions. Congratulations to the hotel manager and the staff ! Definetly it is a 4 star hotel and I gave 10 points for the front desk staff.

I thoroughly enjoyed my recent stay at Hotel Borgo Antico. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel is perfect for taking day trips around Lake Como and to other lakes and cities. It is only a 6 min walk to the train station and bus stop. It is also a 15 min walk to the ferry terminal and a 10-15 min walk to the old town. The street that the hotel is on is very historical with lots of interesting restaurants. Breakfast was delicious with one of the best fruit selections I have ever seen in a hotel breakfast. The rooftop terrace is a lovely place to relax after a long day of sightseeing. Overall, this hotel is an excellent home base for exploring Lake Como and the surrounding areas.

My stay at Hotel Paradiso Como was nothing short of magical – the name says it all. Here’s why: 📍 Location & Views The view is simply breathtaking. From the infinity pool, you get a cinematic panorama of Lake Como and the surrounding mountains. Especially during sunset – pure poetry in motion. 🏊 Infinity Pool & Vibes The pool is the real highlight. Whether it’s early morning mist or golden hour glow, every second feels like a scene from a movie. Peaceful, serene, and never overcrowded. 🍽️ Breakfast with a View Breakfast was delicious and beautifully presented, served on a terrace overlooking the lake. A cappuccino with that view? Heaven. 🛏️ Room & Tranquility The room was simple, clean, and had everything I needed. Most importantly – total peace and quiet. Just nature and birdsong. 🚗 Getting There Yes, the road up is a bit winding and adventurous – but absolutely worth it. Once you’re up there, you’ll never want to leave.

The place is quite funny to find, you will have to demonstrate your driving capability before discovering this beautiful place. Indeed, the place is on the high of Como and gives you a fantastic and unique view of the lack and the city. The restaurant (that I advise you to book) is very good, we had 2 diners there and no disappointment. I saw many people trying to have a table at the restaurant that was full which is not a surprise for the quality they provide and the view from the restaurant’s terrasse that is stunning. It was 35 degrees when we were there and the swimming pool was a master class. Of course, it is not the most luxurious pool I have seen but it makes the job perfectly. Rooms are well equipped, and very nice designed.

We stayed in Hotel Paradiso for 6 nights as a family with a small child. The hotel is a small but very personable place. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly and made us feel very welcome there. The pool was a hit for our kid as she can stay in water all day and the view from the pool/patio is amazing. There are quite a few restaurants at the hotel and around as well and the food was all good! Getting there can be a bit of a challenge if you are not used to driving on very narrow roads on steep hill. There is a funicular that gets you about halfway from the bottom of the hill and the hotel can pick you up from the station. We really loved our time there!

We booked this hotel purely for the scenery that appears at least from the swimming pool area. We have spent almost all evening just swimming in the pool and enjoying an amazing scenery of lake Como from top of the mountain. The room was clean, it had everything we needed. There was a local restaurant that had amazing pizzas. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. Huge thank you for them!

Exceptional stay, this hotel is just amazing. All the staff are welcoming, polite, professional and go out of their way to make your stay 10/10. The reception staff helped us massively by giving us local tips to help us explore the area and get the most out of our trip. The views from the balcony (junior suite) are stunning, waking up and walking out to the balcony watching the boats go past on the lake made our holiday. Make sure you enjoy a drink in the infinity pool, they told us when we checked in this will be spectacular and it truely was. The food and service in the restaurant was 10/10, can recommend a bottle of wine called Lugana to compliment the pasta. Breakfast was a treat, you get provided with continental tray and coffees and then choose hot cooked breakfast from a menu. The room was spacious and clean, our only feedback for the room was that it would have been beneficial to have some milk provided for the tea/coffee facilities. If you want a small, family feel hotel with amazing lake views this is the hotel for you. We hired a car and getting to the hotel was an interesting experience going up the winding roads, we were initially concerned about how to get back to the hotel when we went to explore as we went on foot, but you can easily get the funicular back to Brunate, send the hotel a message and they offer a transfer service to get you back up to the hotel. A great service. The only thing we would have changed is to stay for longer!!

The location was where I needed it to be: near the regional train station that accessed the Malpensa Express via a transfer in Sarona. It was a short walk along a quiet street to the lakefront restaurants, funicular, bus station, and ferry docks further towards the main rail station. The edge of the old city was about a 15-20 minute walk from the hotel. You can arrange for breakfast the day before. The room I had was a little small, but there was adequate space for my 2 suitcases and carry-on bag, and it had a small refrigerator. The bed was very comfortable for this very tired tourist. The hotel had easy access for my luggage, and has the very important elevator! A must have for my hotel choices!

We were here over Easter and enjoyed our stay in the large family room. We are a family of three and the family room was so spacious. The family room is a two bedroom with a total of 3 twin beds and a queen bed and our own terrace. We’ve been traveling and this stay was towards the end of our trip and we didn’t know what to do with all the space. It was great! The staff were also so kind and helpful. They called a cab for us, opened the door and even gave my son a giant Easter chocolate egg. Next time, we will stay longer. Thank you Hotel Quarcino.

What a find! An absolutely lovely little hotel, within a 5 minute walk of Lake Como and restaurants, bars and boat rides.The staff were brilliant, and the room was spacious as was the walk-in shower. The hotel was kept spotlessly clean, and nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast was varied and plentiful - continental plus boiled or scrambled eggs, etc. The car park was secure and tucked away off the main street. English is spoken very well, which we appreciated! We would definitely like to visit again!

As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with bottles of cold water. So appreciated as the weather was hot, and we walked a long way. The room was perfect, and the staff was polite and helpful showing us how to navigate, places to eat etc.. The AC was excellent. No complaints. I wished we had tried the breakfast. Next time. It is very close to the Como Lago train station, the bus and ferry stations plus tons of shopping and restaurants. Lovely.

Good location, easy walk to lakefront and city. Good parking but you pay €20. Lady at reception was excellent and let us leave our car in the carpark for a couple of hours after check out so we could wander around the city. Also provided an adequate breakfast. Room was clean and comfortable and bathroom was updated and spacious by European standards. Nice view from the window, could even see a tiny bit of the lake

This charming hotel is located up above Lake Como in a small village called Brunate. You can take the funiculare up to Brunate from Como for 5 euro roundtrip; it's a 7 minute ride each way. The hotel is steps from the funiculare and is situated in an area with absolutely beautiful views. They have a restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating ideal for a romantic meal or simply casually hanging out. The breakfast served each morning is wonderful too. The rooms are so cute and the small details are wonderful. Live greenery, beautiful bed frame, mirrored walls, lovely bathroom, windows that easily open for fresh air. The town itself is quiet and I enjoyed watching the small amount of people that were walking around. You can walk in either direction and find a handful of cute restaurants and shops. You can drive up to Brunate, but it's super windy and curvy and probably pretty confusing. The funiculare is your best bet for getting up and down, so maybe not recommended if you have a car with you (although they do have free parking). They also provided transportation to the Milan Airport. It is an absolutely wonderful location if you're wanting to explore Como during the day and come back to a peaceful and beautiful home at night.

As the other reviews show, it would be very hard to give this hotel less than five stars. The location is wonderful, the view is breathtaking, the building itself has been recently and tastefully renovated, the owner and staff are charming, friendly and helpful. And the food is excellent, as well (the hotel has an in-house restaurant and bar)! We found this place by chance, but we keep coming back. It is near the top of a mountain overlooking the Lake of Como, about 20 minutes drive from the centre of Como. However, there is also a cable car to the city that takes seven minutes and runs frequently. The Como side of the cable car is practically next door to the train station, so it's a breeze to take the train to Milan (in fact, the cable car schedule is synchronized with train arrivals and departures, so there's never long to wait). In fact, it is perfectly feasible to stay at the Bellavista without a car. Believe me, it's such a nice place that you won't really want to go anywhere! You'll certainly feel as if you're staying with old friends.

I've visited this hotel 3 times since 2021, once to have a drink and twice to eat. The first thing to say is the views are phenomenal. A camera won't do it justice, but it's not important – just appreciate it with your eyes. Being a short walk from the funicular railway station (literally under 2 minutes), it's a great please to stop off for refreshments. They have an outdoor area, and also an indoor area with panoramic views. The last time I went was in December and my partner and I ordered the same dish, it was kind of like braised beef. I was hesitant to try it, but oh boy what a choice! One of the best meals I've ever had, hands down 10/10. What made it even better was the waitress, who had humour, joked with us, explained what we were eating and really took care of me because I'm allergic to nuts. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but I can't understand the negative reviews about the service here. Visited 3 times, no complaints. Keep doing what you're doing Bellavista!

We stayed at Bellavista for a week in June. It is a small family run hotel situated in a superb hillside location overlooking Como town and of course the lake. Brunate is a small village with few amenities as such but access to Como town,the rail, road and lake transport facilities is easy via the nearby funicular railway.The hotel location is also excellent for access to numerous mountain walks and trails. We were allocated the 'junior suite' which appeared to be the best room with balcony and superb views and would recommend this choice if available. We were glad we hadn't hired a car as local roads are interesting to say the least and parking around the lakeside main attractions appeared limited. We arranged transport to and from Malpensa airport with Renato, the hotel manager and this from our perspective was certainly the right choice. We loved our stay which was certainly enhanced by the friendly and helpful hotel staff and hope to return in the future.

Beautiful rooms in a quiet little town above all the "action" in Como. Conveniently located right next to the incline down (or up) to Como. Good breakfast and they welcomed our little dog without an extra charge. Free parking almost right outside the lobby door. Probably the most beautiful room we've had after more than a year traveling all over Italy. They even had free SKYTV in English (and not just BBC and CNN!!!!! Actual movies!!!! - First Italian hotel where we've had this treat). Balcony had a great view of Lake Como. Only complaint was the bathroom sink was really poorly designed, seemed to have no hot water, and only worked on a sensor. When the water finally came on, it splashed all over your clothes. We just used the handheld shower instead. This is a charming historic hotel in a lovely town and the staff was great. Breakfast was good too. Absolutely recommend!

The Hotel San Giuseppe is in a quiet area of Cernobbio but within easy walking distance of the town centre. The ferry terminal is just 12 minutes’ walk away and provides rides to most towns/villages at the southern end of Lake Como. The ferry to Bellagio for example takes just under 2 hours. Como itself is only 4.5 km away and we walked there and back with ease. The proprietor Maurizio was always on hand to ensure things ran smoothly, provide advice, and generally made our weeks stay thoroughly enjoyable. The restaurant areas are tastefully decorated and dinner in the garden area was very pleasant. The food is excellent, and we found that we intentionally headed back to the hotel for most of our dinners. Due to our late booking, there was only 1 room available. It was equipped with TV, WIFI, AC, small balcony, ensuite with walk-in shower, hairdryer, safe and towels and free toiletries. Being the last room available, our third-floor room was smaller than we would normally take, but perfectly adequate and commensurate with the price. Limited parking is available. Whoever provides the star rating for this hotel need to re-evaluate as it deserves far more. I would recommend the hotel and restaurant and I look forward to staying there again. Thanks Maurizio we hope to see you again.

We have been pleased about this great cosy place. Our seperate room with garden on the other side of the street was like a little island to switch off. It is like a suite but for a more than fair price! The people are very, very, very friendly if you are too. If you are not, then you may get to know if you are welcome or not. Remember, it is a family who runs it and not some hotel chain so it is about people! We felt more than welcome and are looking forward to come again. Maybe just for a short trip over the weekend pr again on our way down to Tuscany or on the way back. We will also make sure we will try the restaurant this time as we heard it is excellent! Have fun and relax!

I just stayed here while planning a wedding in the area over the weekend and had the most amazing stay! This place is one of the most clean and comfortable hotels I have stayed in recently, I seriously could not find one thing to complain about. The location is perfect, walking distance to many restaurants, the main town center & lake. They also have an AMAZING restaurant on the lower level of the hotel with the most beautiful ambiance! The owner was so kind, he helped me when I had a flat tire and had to leave for work, he assisted me in getting it fixed while I was gone all day and arranged a taxi for me to get where I needed to go. I would rate higher if I could - everything was perfect! Thank you!

Stayed here for 3 nights and was so pleased. Mauritzio and his family truly look after you and all requests/questions were attended immediately. Room is basic but comes with wifi (fast!) and aircon, pricing is great. My room had a little terrace overlooking rooftops (very idyllic). Quiet area - I got a good sleep here. Also great location in Cernobbio where you are short stroll away from ferry terminal to explore the lake or go to Como city for the day. They have restaurant onsite and plenty of other options nearby so you wont go hungry. The room rate doesnt include breakfast but you can get a coffee and pastry for couple of euros each morning. Highly recommend for solo travel, couples, froups of friends etc. Warm, friendly, good old fashioned hospitality - loved it!

This hotel exceeded all of our expectations - absolutely stunning rooms with modern appliances, amazing aircon (much needed) and a very comfortable bed. The room had more strorage and space many four star hotels we’ve stayed have had. The common areas including restaurant and lobby were absolutely stunning, great selection of wines and breakfast was superb. The best thing about our stay was by far the fantastic service provided by the helpful staff who made us feel so welcome and made sure we had everything we needed. They helped us so much with transportations and recommendations that really made our stay special. Considering value for money this hotel was absolutely spectacular and if we are ever again in the Como area, we are definitely coming back.

The hotel integrates all advantages for enjoying the beauty of como lake. In nature, out of crowding city during a hot weekend, when the lake sides were full of people. Once you choose to live here you have chance to taste both Urban life in Como and peaceful wildlife in Brunate. Take the cable railway from the lake and then the staff from hotel can transport you to the hotel if you contact in advance, no worries about the traffic and routines in mountain. Unbelievable friendly staff and service, it's not something you can always experience in business hotels, no matter how many stars they have. And the last but important, fair price for both accomodation and authentic dinners. I have booked at last second on a hot season weekend. I do not think I need to look for any other place to live, when I will come to Como again.

Most amazing view from restaurant patio of Lake Como end/end. The family run hotel provided very friendly/home service. It’s a bit hard to find, and I got lost on my way up and ended up back in town, but the owner, Roberto drove into Como, found me and escorted me back to the hotel. Food was amazing as well. Great value once you find it! 👍👍

Take notice! This is my very first 10 out of ten feedback ever. Hotel Falchetto : Absolutely astonishing hospitality . Arrived 1,5 hours after normal check-in time ends, still got accomodated with an honest smile and asked if I'd care for a drink 😊 Fabulous environment with loads of charm. The place is run by the owner Signor Robertos family, legendary people. Recommend from the very heart.

The atmosphere and the views were great, the staff just can't do enough for you. Food from the restaurant was great and great prices too, the free lift to and from the funicular is a great service which means you can leave your car at the hotel, and if you have an EV you could leave it to charge whilst you enjoyed Como city.

Everything! The position of the restaurant affords an amazing view of Lake Como. The room was delightful, the food and wine were excellent and the staff extremely helpful. One of the owners even took us to the funicular railway to go down to the town and collected us on our return to avoid us trying to find parking in the village.

This is a good hotel to choose on a budget in the very expensive Lake Como area. The downside is you have to drive up 2 miles with hairpin bends to get there from the Lake. The view from the Hotel garden is magnificent. The restaurant is excellent, fairly expensive, with quaint no prices on Lady's menu. You will feel like you're staying in someone's home as it is a family-run genuine Italian hotel. Downsides are not much sound-proofing so other guests can disturb you. Also no air-conditioning, not too bad with windows left open at night. There is no pool here. In June we could eat in the restaurant without booking and there is another good restaurant next-door (Griglia).
