This hotel, while clean, does not live up to my expectations for a 3-star hotel. The location is not good, the staff wasn't very hospitable, and the decor left a lot to be desired. Not only that, but they turn off the air conditioning between midnight and 6:00 AM (not a great thing when your room is on the 4th... More

We stayed at Hotel Larius in Como for 3 nights in early July. Our double room was comfortable, clean and basic (though If I'm being picky, there was too much furniture for the size of room and the colour scheme was horrid!). The bathroom was a decent size, had a bath and shower with hot water at all times. Now... More

We stayed for two days at the beginning of our week-long bike trip in the lakes area, and then again for a night at the end of the trip. This involved storing luggage, and safely storing a rental tandem after it was dropped off for us, and after we left, to await pickup. In each case, the front desk was... More

Just returned from a week in Como staying at the Hotel Larius. The hotel is located on a side street in a residential part of the new town about 20 minutes walk from the Lake. It appears to have been newly refurbished. Rooms are extremely clean but basic. Unfortunately the air conditioning was switched off which made for an uncomfortable... More

A quick overnight stay. The hotel is not within the old town, which is about a 10 minute walk away. It has car parking, which is a plus (as parking is quite difficult in Como). It is set off a side road, so not the best arrival experience. This position however is very quiet, allowing a good night's rest. What... More

John and I spent 8 days at the Larius in September last year. The room was comfortable, a decent size, plenty of storage and spotlessly clean. The food was brilliant, the restaurant manager had a wonderful sense of humour and his recommendations, both of food and wine could not be faulted. The hotel was situated away from the lake side,...

We stayed at the hotel Larius for 3 nights. Overall the hotel was fine. Plus points were that the rooms were very clean, the hotel is fairly new, fixtures and fittings in good condition, sufficient parking available (a big plus in italy!), and friendly & helpful staff. Also... there are two supermarkets within easy walking distance, very handy if you... More

Hotel Larius is located in a largely residential area that is a distance from the downtown area. The hotel is unremarkable, although the restaurant chef takes pride in creating an enjoyable dining experience. The rooms are expected with the exception of air conditioning. Specifically, the hotel has a policy of turning off the air conditioning each night from 11 pm... More

We found this hotel using the internet and negotiated rates using email. It's a little confusing finding the hotel the first time, so I recommend taking a cab from the train station (Como Nord is closest.) The hotel is of modern design and the rooms are clean and comfortable. The front desk staff was very accommodating. By all means, have... More
