We spent 3 nights here late September '12. Flew into Bergramo and got train up to Como. We found that the hotel was far more cost effective than staying in Como - thought we would kind of take a hit by being out of the town but in the end we were really glad we stayed up in Brunate. Not... More

I stayed for 3 nights in September. This place is more of a b&b than a hotel but I really felt at home. The staff were very welcoming, the room was basic but very clean, though you might find the en suite a little cramped. The road up from Como may be a bit of a white-knuckle ride if you're... More

We stayed at Locanda Milano for 2 nights during a trip to Lake Como as part of a European touring holiday. The hotel is situated in the village of Brunate, which is high on a hill above the lake. The road to Brunate rises out of Como town, and boy, do you go through some tight/steep turns to get to... More

Not easy to get to, especially if you have a larger car. Simple place, not elegant but clean. Really nice gentleman who checked us in, served breakfast, and got our car out of their tiny parking area like a professional driver. Would stay here again, though I might consider splurging for a few more amenities next time.

We stayed at the Locando Milano in October 2011 and found it to be good value, rather than very good as the rating implies (there is no good). It was clearly not tourist season and we had to call to get someone to come and let us in (this is poorly signposted by the way). After that hiccup the experience... More

Good side: Great atmosphere, great hosts, nice town and views, good breakfast, free WIFI. Bad side: small rooms with no AC, tiny shower, noise from the road if you sleep with window open. Funicular to Como is close by which is nice, also great view if you go up the hill with car, there is a place to stop and... More

Facilities are basic. The owners are friendly and attentive - but don't arrive on a Wednesday (restaurant closed). You have to phone Frederico/Massimo on arrival, which is disconcerting if you get routed to an Italian voicemail... Rooms are small, but OK. En suite is a struggle if you are a 6ft 200lb rugby player. Restaurant is not cheap - but... More

This charming hotel is located close to the venicular from Como. It has great charm, in no small part due to the Italian family that runs the place, neither Freddy or Massimo were never too far away (from the bar) at any stage which along with the local soccer supporters (visited during an overcast weekend which coincided with several seria...

Charming hotel. Fantastic for those without a car as is near funicular. Lovely people. Great atmosphere in bar. Amazing pasta and antipasta in restaurant. Perfect!!
