This hotel has very friendly and helpful staff and is in an amazing location. Our room had a view of Lake Como from the balcony and a view of the mountains from the window. The restaurant was also very good. My favorite dish was called "Taste of the Lake," which was a sample of different fish from Lake Como. They also had a great selection of local liqueurs (amari). The hotel is also located right next to the boat dock for the water taxi that takes you to different destinations around the lake, including Bellagio.

Hotel was wonderful and restaurant was very good! Hardest part was finding transportation to and from the hotel and the water taxi stops less frequently than other stops so plan accordingly.

Beautiful little hotel in the stunning Lake Como! Breakfasts were brilliant - what a view. The ferry left from right outside and it was walkable to a couple of nice restaurants. We had the family room for four which was perfectly adequate for us. Would highly recommend this hotel. I would stay again if I’m ever lucky enough to be back in lake Como!

The highlight of our trip was the room: spacious, clean, and cozy, with beautiful views of Lake Como. I highly recommend the room with a terrace, which for us was an unmatched experience; we felt like never leaving! Dinner at the hotel’s restaurant was also delicious (highly recommend the lasagna) and served in a cozy space with views of the lake. Plus, the location is perfect, right next to the ferry station, with boats available to Como and Bellagio, as well as a number of buses. I couldn't have asked for a better stay. Highly recommended!

Thanks for a lovely stay

Our family of five, including two teenagers, had a truly pleasant stay at the family-run Orso Bruno. Finding accommodation for us in a single room can be a challenge, but Orso Bruno offered a fantastic family room that comfortably fit everyone. The convenient Bus-Boat stop right outside the hotel made exploring Como town and the surrounding lakeside villages a breeze. We also enjoyed the breakfast and dinner, and the staff were exceptionally helpful and welcoming throughout our stay. We will absolutely be returning! 10/10

Beat staff ever!

I normally don’t take the time to write a review but the staff at this hotel were so good that I needed to make sure I wrote a review to tell people about it. The staff went above and beyond to try to help with our accommodations. He was so nice! He made our trip be extraordinary. From helping us get a cab to tieing a tie, he did everything he could to help us and make our stay pleasant. Highly recommend.
