“Great place to stay with an even better breakfast, hosts are very friendly.”
It's a great accomodation with great hosts/owners and staff. We had a great and cozy room, it's near the lake and other bigger cities, like Lecco. We really enjoyed our breakfast there, those croissants, hams and cheeses are incredible and those jams were very tasty. They even gave my girlfriend gluten free bread for the breakfast.

“Fantastic stay at super guesthouse high on the hill.”
Stefano was the perfect host—from picking us up at the station and sharing valuable insights about the lake area, to ensuring all our needs were met throughout our stay. The rooms were spotless, comfortable, and well-appointed. We also enjoyed a spacious, well-equipped communal lounge and kitchen area. Each morning, breakfast was a highlight, with an amazing variety of freshly baked pastries.

“Beautful homely property in the hills of Mandello del Lario with warm hosts and a lovely Italian breakfast”
A lovely homely property, Stefano was a super welcoming friendly host who made us feel right at home. The property is beautiful and offers wonderful views over the lake. The room has everything you need and was very clean. There is a communal area with a kettle and some drinks that can be purchased. The breakfast was one of the standouts - we especially enjoyed the apple and cinnamon homemade jam and the pastries! Its a great location to use as a base to explore other parts of Lake Como - Varenna is only a 10 minute train journey away where there are ferries to Bellagio and Mennagio very often.

“Highly recommendable”
Stephano and his family were very welcoming. Although we arrived late we found him expecting us. Breakfast was freshly made and very good. The place is very old on the outside but has been thoroughly renovated on the inside.

“Tranquil hideaway at Lago di Como with fantastic host & food”
Stefano is a very welcoming host and helped us with fantastic recommendations for hikes and activities. The room was sparkly clean and very modern, with a comfortable bed and AC. It’s beautiful hidden spot and the osteria is fantastic. We enjoyed the tranquility and originality of the location a lot - sights, more restaurants and towns were in easy reach by car.

The atmosphere of the small village and the property itself was incredible. Like being somewhere a few hundred years ago with all the comforts of our times. But it is all real, not fake, not remade for tourists. It was charming, peaceful, and unique. The owner is also very kind and helpful. The restaurant on site is pleasant. Breakfast is fresh and delicious. Beautiful hiking trail and a very nice waterfall nearby.
