This is a stylish and small boutique hotel with comfortable and tastefully furnished rooms all to a high standard. From the moment we arrived we felt welcome and relaxed. All the staff were polite, friendly and so helpful and couldn’t do enough for us. The owners Sara and Andrea , Paola and Palo gave great suggestions for our itinerary and were on hand in reception , we stayed three nights and our room tended to daily and spotlessly clean. The location of the hotel is perfect! 4 mins to the Cathedral, 4 minutes to the lake , ferry stops, ten mins to the main train which was so easy from Milan airport, and minutes to amazing views!!! Set in a small piazza it is tranquil yet a few steps to the livelier main squares! Breakfast was plentiful and we ate two evenings out of three nights in the hotel’s restaurant, the food was fabulous and reasonably priced as were the wines and beers! We loved staying here, thank you to all the team!

It was perfect.

I had a great time staying at Albergo Del Duca. The hotel is located 10 mins walk away from Como San Giovanni train station or 5 mins via bus. The room was nice, decent size and clean. I stayed on the first floor and loved the fact that there was a patio with some greenery where you could sit and chill. My room had AC which I really enjoyed. The staff is very kind , welcoming and helpful. The hotel has a restaurant and the food is very nice. I enjoyed having breakfast in the morning it was so peaceful. You can walk everywhere from the hotel which I really enjoyed. The ferry port is only 6 mins walk away from the hotel. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in Como city.

I wish I could’ve stayed longer

The location was perfect, right in the centre with numerous restaurants and bars just a few minutes walk away. The hotel was immaculate and breakfast was plentiful and extremely fresh. Bread, cheese, ham, fruit, yoghurts, cereal, cake and croissants. The coffee served was always delicious and hot. The waiter at breakfast, sorry didn’t get his name, but he told us he was originally from the Philippines, was friendly and very meticulous. The layout of breakfast was just perfect.

We would have benefitted from more coffee in the room. Just 2 pods of espresso and 2 de caf per day and one paper cup each. A cappuccino pod would have been a welcome choice, but that might be the way it is generally done in Italian hotels.

Very clean, comfortable and very authentic Italian, run by a family. Also lots of attention to detail, very welcoming atmosphere. Lovely, friendly staff, nothing too much trouble. Beautiful building, situated in a pretty square and in the centre of the Old Town, so everything easy to get to, including the railway station ( except the trains went on strike on our departure day!!)

The only fault I have is that maybe there could have been a little more choice at breakfast. Having said that, breakfast was adequate, nicely laid out and included in the price. Very friendly waiter who made the best Cappuccino in Como! Once again, nothing was too much trouble for him.

Great location in a piazza in the old town, plenty of restaurants, cafes and shops close by. The lake was a few minutes walk away and the San Giovanni train station about a 10 minute walk away. The hotel has been renovated so nice modern room, with free bottled water and coffee machine, modern bathroom with good toiletries. Wifi speed was good and reliable. Nice breakfast catering to different tastes, so pastries, yoghurt, fruit, juices, cheese and meat slices, jams, nutella, bread that can be toasted, cake. Would stay here again.

Nothing

Beautiful traditional hotel near Milan Centrale. Rooms were rather large- breakfast was nice. Outstanding staff- especially the front desk- very accommodating as we had to stay longer than anticipated and needed forms printed, luggage stored etc. Hotel room price was great also- we had stayed at a smaller B &B one night prior and paid a lot more for a poorer quality room and bad location. Wish we had found this hotel and avoided the B @B. Book a stay you won’t be disappointed!

Nothing

The bathroom! It was so thoughtfully equipped and so cosy, with a piping hot towel radiator on all the time. Everything we needed was provided in the bedroom too, with a big comfy bed and nice linens. The family owners were charming and gave us good advice about visiting the lakeside villages. They run the restaurant at the front of the hotel and we had a jolly meal there. Como is absolutely delightful at Christmas - the best decorated town we’ve seen anywhere!

Breakfast was very nice and there was plenty to choose from and the coffee was very good and the staff member man serving was very nice and he very polite .the hotel was centrally located.

There was no fridge in the room and the safe was not bolted in so anyone could walk off with our belongings and we didn’t use the safe . When I made a claimant about the safe I was told nobody ever complained. We had to carry our personal eg passport and other valuable with us when we went out

Very updated room. Plenty of space.

Nothing bad to say...

The building is beautiful, set in a lovely square with restaurants and bars. Walking distance from the ferry. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming. Rooms are beautiful, comfortable and clean. Breakfast was great Paid palking a few minutes from the hotel. I highly recommend this hotel.

Room was a little warm and mosquitoes entered when we open the room. But the pro's are so wonderful that the mosquitoes weren't a problem..
