The women at the front desk were amazing, the lacation was the best you could hope for, we loved it. We walked everywhere and the boats to cross the lake were just across a beautiful square w/ restaurants and shops. We would recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to Como. Enjoy and Caio

Shopping tip:
Long walk from hotel
On Saturdays Como has a open air market by the old wall, ask anyone they know the location. We purchased many things for the folks back home and our selves, but be sure to check labels, look for make in Italy. We had a ball.

Comfortable with great views
This was a two-night stay on route for Tuscany - it proved an ideal base for two days of relaxation. View from room across Lake Como was superb and hotel felt very comfortable and friendly. Parking is at a nearby hotel and easily acccessible. Some good local restaurants, especially for sea-food. Como will look better when current lake-front improvements have been finished - currently a bit of a building site. Even with satnav, finding the route through Como from the motorway was an interesting experience - returning was much easier!

Lovely location overlooking the
Lovely location overlooking the lake but a very busy area and finding it, even with a sat nav was a nightmare. Parking is then another challenge as this is at a sister hotel and you have to walk your bags back to the Barchetta. Decor is rather dated and the food wsa average - a bit of a dispapointmnt really

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Hotel Barchetta Excelsior Como. Its location was excellent and we loved the view of the lake which our room provided. The staff was accommodating and the service could not be outdone. We would recommend this hotel highly to anyone who would be vacationing in the Lake Como region.

Time-saving tip:
Short walk from hotel
Across from the hotel is the Como Lake transportation hub. But a Turistico ticket for 6 Euro and take a 1 hour tour of the lake on the boat Taxi. It stops at 6 towns in the south end of the lake and you can get off and explore if you want - but the roundtrip ride is a great way to see the sites.

車での利用。町の中心部にあるため、駐車スペースは少し離れたところにあるホテルの駐車場を共用しており、若干不便であった。スタッフのサービスは問題ないレベルで部屋も清潔感があった。
