Como boasts of an interesting city centre which can be explored in about 2 days , together with a beautiful lakeside promenade ideal for a walk, a couple of parks and a few stunning villas by the lake. It is also a good base from which one can explore the picturesque towns and villages on the lake. However being at the southern tip of the lake, travelling to the northern part of the lake or the Lecco branch of the lake takes quite a long time. Plenty of restaurants which can be a bit pricey, but the food is delicious. On the negative side, even at the end of the tourist season queues for the ferries and the Brunate funicular can be quite long at certain times of the day

Lakeside walking, boat tour, finicular experience and trekking to lighthouse (even in the rain) , good Italien food & wine, nice narrow shopping streets, silk products are the things that made our holiday great.

Wonderful find with super-comfy room with modern fixtures, tech and stunning bathroom. Breakfast high quality and padel on tap if you are inclined. Pool area like a 'design hotel'. Hotel and minibus service into Como very good.

For your accommodation look for a location close to the Duomo; from here you can reach all the tourist attractions on foot. Get your ferry tickets online. Enjoy an Aperol spritz or a glass of wine on a terrace in the afternoon.

It is a wondeful city with Ferries' pier, making it easy to reach and explore all famous cities of the lake Como (Menaggio, Bellagio, Varenna). One must be ready to wake up early, at 6 AM to buy full-day Ferry ticket. Once it is done, the Como lake can be explored freely with no need to stay in the queues.

Great place to visit with great views. Plenty of shops, bars and restaurants. A small bathing area by a park. Ride the funicular to enjoy great views although the walk up to the lighthouse is not for the fainthearted as steep and hot in summer but worth the walk. A shuttle bus to the top is also available. Not as busy as Lake Garda and better in my opinion.
