Great location right on Lake Como. Two restaurants one inside the hotel the other around the corner, great food. This hotel was close the best part of Lake Como, dinning, shopping and the main square. If you stay here, you will not need a car to see the City of Como. The staff is this hotel were excellent, very friendly and super helpful. And almost all the rooms have a lovely view.

Once a Grande Dame

The Hotel occupies an enviable position right on the waterfront in Como and was once, I’m sure, the Grande Dame of Como hotels. However it really does need an update, not too much and not in the “international style” but a sympathetic renovation worthy of such a building. All the ingredients are there - the staff are fabulous- just needs an update and then it would perfect.
