Hotels near Basilica of Saint Abundius, Como

Good hostel, near a supermarket and convenient location with the railway station. A bit overshadowed that my room was on the first floor with a window to the courtyard, it was pretty noisy even with earplugs ... And a rather modest breakfast compared to hostels for the same price. But the friendliness of the staff and convenient location sweetened these inconveniences.

WOW - this is just the most magnificent boutique hotel and a truly exceptional position. It’s super close to the lake AND shops AND restaurants - we only had a day and a half but I would gladly come back for a few days. One of our rooms had a window view directly our over the lake (302) and the other had a little balcony that offered views of the lake. (403) . I preferred the 302 room but my daughter said that it was a bit noisy due to the stream of cars. The rooms are comfy although I always dislike the joined single beds to create a king bed with a join. I always seem to end up stuck in the join (no matter how small the crack😂) The decor of the hotel is like a plush reminder of the 1930s - I felt like George Cluney might come round a corner at any moment. The building is superb and VERY picturesque. Service has been excellent and we feel very privileged. We have just finished breakfast in the most divine outdoor setting in the hotel grounds overlooking the lake. It is a bright blue sky and the wind is calm - I don’t think life gets much better than this.. Last night we dined at Ristorante Sottovoce which was a mere 100m away and absolutely as MUST do while staying at the perfect venue. “It’s such a shame we’re only here for one night” , my wife just said. But we still have a few hours to do a guided but tour with a private captain/guide - so there is still more special-ness to enjoy.

The person at this hotel was really welcoming and very flexible in terms of re-arrangement of my stay. He shared many great sightseeing places and directed the way to my room. The bathroom and shower room are shared with others, but they are clean and you still have a single your own room with such a resonance price.

BB is a hotel chain that exists in many cities. I have seen and stayed in hotels in Europe and the United States. However, the hotels in Europe are not very spacious and the beds are very small. The breakfast is quite rich!

The hotel is very large, the equipment is very new, and the room price is reasonable! It’s just a little far away from the city center. During my trip to Northern Italy, the best pizza I ever had was in Lake Como (pictured)

We didn't spend a lot of time in our room but it was quirky and fun to stay in. For some reason all pillows we ever used in Italy hotels, including this one, were very flat, so double up if that bothers you. We had a room looking at the church across the street, and when we went up to our rooms it felt almost like we were sneaking into the hotel because of the way that the front was set up for dining, and the staircase was only available to hotel guests. The dinner we had at the restaurant was very good, we enjoyed the prosecco, and the view of the sunset was spectacular. In the morning we woke up to the smell of baking bread and the croissants we had with the included breakfast were possibly the best I had in 2 weeks in Italy. Everyone was friendly, and the person who checked us in insisted on carrying our super heavy backpack style bags up to our room for us. It was probably good that we had learned a little Italian because not every staff person there spoke English well, but there were no issues. The hotel is a very short walk from the funicular but when we arrived on a holiday the line to use the funicular up to Brunate was so long that we had our driver take us up there in his van instead. This is not a road for the faint of heart or any large cars, and it was a story we told several times!

I was on a Northern Italy Lake Tour with my mom and best friend with 25 other people. This hotel was the second stop of our trip. The travel company selected the hotels, so we were at the mercy of where they put us. If you like rock hard beds, wafer thin pillows, scratchy rough sheets, semi clean rooms, abrasive and rude staff, then this is a place for you! The two stars are for excellent wifi connection and speed and friendly housekeeping staff. This is clearly a very busy hotel. Every time we went through the lobby there were groups checking in. The sign said the air conditioning in the hotel would be on until 10/22, and we checked out before the 22nd and it was never on. Rooms were stuffy and hot. We had to ask about opening the window, which we had to sign a waiver (understandable - there are no screens). Each bed had one very thin pillow. When we asked for 3 more (one for each in the room) the look of dismay and surprise from the person at the front desk was almost comical. The fridge in the room was stocked daily, but never was cold enough to even chill the bottles. We had the same waiter two nights and he was miserable, unfriendly, inattentive and just down right rude. I tried to be friendly to see if it would help - and it didn’t. When asking for directions at the front desk the person seemed annoyed that we asked, was very curt and snotty. Even when looking at other staff they all looked miserable - no one smiled. At least the housekeeping ladies were pleasant and greeted you with good morning and a smile. Not an overly welcoming experience and I couldn’t wait to check out and continue on our trip. If I was to come back, I certainly would not book to stay here.

The single room is smaller than expected, but overall it is quite satisfactory. It is close to the station and the lake. The service attitude of the front desk is good. The breakfast is also rich! It is delicious! The only drawback is that the wifi has been unable to connect on the second night, so there is no way to use the network.

Amazing views… great stay
