This hotel was beautiful! It was in a great location and had an incredible view. Our original room was in a bit of a noisy location and we were happy with it - the hotel staff quickly assigned us a new room! They were SO quick about it. The hotel breakfast was amazing as well, a large selection of delicious food everyday! We will stay here again when we return to Lake Como.

A great hotel in a fantastic location
This was a great location for our first visit to Como and Lake Como. Easy access to ferries to see other locations. the service was great. The balcony room gave us a great view to the lake and other surrounds. The room is very clean, roomy and the bed very comfortable.The buffet breakfast was of a high standard, with great service from the staff.
The reception staff are very helpful, friendly and accomodating. Highly recommend

Thank you
Everything was AWESOME!
Personnel was very kind and friendly. It was a bit cold, but they gave us a heater.
We've got as a welcome chocolate eggs because it was Easter, kids were super happy.
The view to the lake kept my husband at the balcony most of the time we were in the room.
I was impressed by the quality of the amenities, for the first time in my life those were visibly better than the ones I usually use. Please let me know if it's possible to buy somewhere the champu and conditioner, or send me a picture with the ingredients so I can search for them, please...
