Hotels near Villa Olmo, Como

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!

Good location at Como doesn’t mean the lake view. Be very careful when ordering the room. French bed doesn’t mean double room. Make screen shot of your booking otherwise you can face some cheap discussion about the booking. Staff at reception was only part fulfilling our expectations. All were professionals and nice but rules defined by management and IT system. couldn’t have influenced. Room, even upgraded one for additional cost was average. There was no sun window blind one window out of two. Parking outside is very limited. Breakfast less than average compared to other 4star hotels in Italy where gastronomy is pure pleasure. And the pool…don’t waste your time…full of mold, we just visited, not even tried to get in. And pool towels, there were on reception so do not forget to take them if you want just take sun-bed on the roof. Otherwise you go back from the 5th floor to take them just because it was so difficult to have them upstairs on the pool. But additional cost you can be sure about at every single area/service provided. Thanks got we stayed one night only.

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!

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.

My husband and I just returned from our vacation at Mandarin Como and I simply can not praise the staff and level of service received during our stay, it was perfection. We stayed at this property before the Mandarin acquired it and we were curious to see what changed. As it turns out, all the changes were for the better, and they have only improved upon the previous owners. There are of course other properties to consider on Como, but I can say with complete confidence that there is no better location than the Mandarin. Also it wasn't full of Americans the way some of the other hotels are, it was a sophisticated mix of clientele, and generally speaking, people were polite and kind, but you had plenty of privacy. Oh and the food was to die for, there are so many options and it was all fabulous. Happy booking, you wont regret it!

The stuff is superbe! The people from the front desk are super professional even when you are stressed they think about a way to solve problems with going the extra mile! Thank you so much for such service! So reader please be nice to them! The breakfast and the beds/rooms/toilet/foyer are very clean - that’s really a big plus and beds are truely comfy. The modern Retro looking supercool Toilet even has a bidet and the soap is not one of those cheap soaps it smells wonderful and is not slimy! Check out the Italian espresso! It’s good and also the mini cupcakes, fresh different fruits, the fresh yoghurt (no drying spots yesss) and the salami is remarkable. Foyer and check in with modern desks for working travelers or young and old kids who want to charge their gadgets… Wifi: no Problems Good rest :)

The room is very good, the room is facing the lake, the scenery is very good, but unfortunately there is no time. The most dissatisfied is the front desk clerk. I feel unfriendly to the Chinese and the tone is really hard. Is this a five-star waiter? ?

The hotel is located in the centre of the city. Unfortunately, the structure is very negligible, I booked 2 double rooms and the following applies to both rooms: wind airing bathroom not working, strong smell of wet throughout the room, Bathroom door box with wooden wood because of the closeness to the shower. I gave the living to a couple of friends who traveled with me, we still sleeped well, but the figure is not the same as it made this structure a couple of years ago.

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
