The service and staff are superb!!! They are very helpful. The room is beautiful with generous amenities. The host at the rooftop, Dario, provide us and complimentary snack and drink. I will definitely stay at Vista Lago di Como for my next visit.

My husband and I had a very happy time on Como. The staff were welcoming and helpful, and our room lovely, with balcony, but noisy road, of course. The Tavernola ferry stop is handy - we walked, cycled and sailed into Como town! The Lake is enchanting - with gorgeous views and noisy seaplanes.
Our great disappointment was splashing out on dinner on our last night. The dining room is grand and all the service rather pretentious, but the food was by no measurement value for money. Euros18...

The hotel was conveniently located so you could walk into como city, to the ferry stop or to the train station. The food was very nice, we had the hotel breakfast each day and also ate in 2 of the restaurants and at the poolside bar. The rooms were comfortable and well cleaned with an evening turn service as well. The pool area was lovely, great pool with an amazing view of the lake plus very cold so great for cooling down after a hot day. Would highly recommend.

We were so lucky to find this hotel at short notice. Perfectly positioned next to the lake in Como. The hotel has only just opened after extensive refurbishment and it is beautiful. The staff couldn't be more helpful and the service was first class.
The roof top bar is beautiful with views across the lake and the old town. We couldn't recommend it enough. 5*
Thanks for looking after us (Mark and Lottie Dougill & Chris and Sarah Platt). See you next time. Ciao

Possibly the very best hotel I've stayed at. The entire experience from check in to check out was exceptional. The staff couldn't be more helpful. Planning the next trip as we speak!

Our room was wheelchair friendly but we couldn’t access the terrace where breakfast was served and looked at the lake. The staff were very helpful getting breakfast sorted in our room though, but we didn’t have a view there.
The hotel was in an amazing situation but the reception felt a little unfriendly but once settled we felt much more welcome. The staff were all friendly and helpful with great restaurant recommendation and taxi booking too.

This hotel is amazing and good value for money. Great location in the centre of town in the shopping district and just a short walk to the ferry terminal and the train stations. All the staff were very helpful and are able to offer tips on things to do in Como. The room was pleasant - nespresso machine, kettle and tea and coffee included. There was also free water in the mini bar, bathrobe, slippers and wonderful amenity kit. The highlight was the superb breakfast in the morning - coffees,...

Stefano's apartment lakeside in Como is fantastic.
Handy for train station, ferries, and with parking for 3 euro per day round the corner.
Right in the heart of the lakeside bars and restaurants, we really enjoyed our stay!

Centre of Como, great hotel with a lovely restaurant and lots of other options in a short walking distance. Our room was a good size and had a balcony with great views up the lake.

Good location on the lake and overall a very nice hotel would recommend although we have extended our stay as we liked it here they have charged us a fair bit more on the nightly rate than our first few days which is a little unfair

Hotel is walking distance from the station and right next to Lake Como. Very convenient for ferries going to other towns on the lake. very convenient for the city of Como. The breakfast was good and the staff excellent. The room was very comfortable and clean and the bed excellent. The décor is modern with a quirky twist - very stylish. The room had a fridge and facilities for tea and coffee-making - much appreciated. There is double-glazing and shutters so outside noise is kept out.
