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!

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.

We enjoyed the stay, hotel is clean, well located, and opposite a very good restaurant in Acqua Dolce. Ferry terminal is at the door step, and the area is quiet, relaxed and wonderful. Rooms are smallish, as with most in Europe, but value fir money here is excellent, as was the hotel service
