Lake Como friendly hotel

This is the perfect place to get away and relax. You are in an Italian hill town that has two playgrounds right across the street from the hotel for your children to play at. The food at the restaurant is a nice treat after a long day playing at Lake Como. The room was large and clean.

Nice hotel near Como lake

A nice hotel in the mountains near lake Como. Host and personnel are very friendly and speak English. Room, dinner and breakfast are good and overall it was an enjoyable stay. Please note that the road near the lake can be tricky with small passages and tight corners. I preferred taking the road inland from and to Como as this is an overall more relaxed drive.

Nur für Notfälle; Gastfamilie nett, Frühstück gut

Das Hotel ist das sprichwörtliche Ende der Welt, ein kleiner Ort, ca. 20-30km vom See, lauter Kurven; 45 Minuten Fahrzeit vom See muss man schon rechnen. Die Gastgeber sind sehr nett, das Frühstück ist sehr gut, einen Gratis Parkplatz gint es, das Hotel ist vollkommen veraltet, Komfort darf man sich keinen erwarten, Kühlschrank gibt es nicht, TV vorhanden, Betten ziemlich hart. Also für € 100 Na Ja.

Erg goed hotel!

We kwamen pas om 23 uur aan op doorreis van Toscane naar Nederland, omdat onze navigatie ermee ophield maar dit was geen enkel probleem. Erg ruime schone familie kamer met grote luxe badkamer met grote douche, alles nieuw en mooi betegeld.Wel dunne muren dus erg gehorig. Mooi uitzicht op de heuvels en kerk vanuit de kamer. Zoet ontbijt erg goed verzorgd! Eigenaar spreekt goed Engels voor een Italiaan.
