Province of Como Konaklamanızı Bulun

We just spent 3 lovely days at the Dandelion. The hotel is located in a small town Villa Guardia, only 15 minutes away from Como. The hotel is an old family farmhouse/residence that has been remodeled and provides severals spacious rooms, appartments and suites. We stayed at a Deluxe Villa, which was simple but beautifully decorated. The room is spacious with a Queen-size bed and a relatively large sofa (I think it can be converted into another bed). The bathroom with a rainfall shower is equipped with all relevant and necessary items. Overall, the building is beautiful and provides an oasis of tranquility and peace of mind - the park-like backyard invites to just sit in a lounger and to dose of in the sun. The true highlight of the hotel though is the culinary experience. Breakfast is served at the Arabella restaurant, where dinner is served as well. Every little detail was perfect. From cutlery to the china coffee set - one eats with style. Luckily, the breakfast buffet refrains from offering a lot, but high qualitative and local products. The different coffee types (from Espresso to Latte Machiato) were among the best we had in Italy so far. But the best was Eleonora, who made this is a very personal experience - thanks to her service and help with our baby girl we could relax and enjoy. The dinner experience is great likewise. A very nice and elaborate monthly menu plus a daily menu - everything we had was delicious, and reasonably priced. We will certainly be back as the other staff, Federica and Matteo welcomed us with a smile and were helpful anytime. The other staff, whose names I did not ask for, we very nice and supportive as well. We only hope that next time, the mattress will be less hard (for my wife who is quite small, this was not so comfy, but with the help of the staff we found a good solution). Another thing I was not too happy about was the strong price volatility. I understand that the demand often makes the price, but when I was booking I had observed a price difference of around 50 € up and down per day within a very short time. Finally, we love to travel to the Como area and believe of having found our ”base to stay” in the Dandelion.

Tutto perfetto, stanza pulita e spaziosa, bagno enorme con vasca idromassaggio, il tutto in questa villetta carinissima e ben curata. Colazione abbondante con brioche fresche. La cigliegina sulla torta è stato il gestore Oscar, persona di una cordialità e di una simpatia incredibile. Super consigliato

It is a bit of a drive form Como center (about 30 mins.) but it's all worth it once you get to the house...a million dollar view of Lake Como, a quiet & picturesque village immaculately clean & tastefully decorated place, free parking, all amenities included, & delicious & bountiful breakfast! The wonderful hosts Stefano & Laura are passionate about their B&B and very accommodating with all our basic needs. We hope to be back!

Our stay at Hotel Paradiso was amazing! The staff was very helpful, especially Magda, who was always cheerful and ensured we were assisted with all of our needs. The food was excellent, both the hotel breakfast and the restaurant beneath it. Despite being located in Brunate, it is very accessible, either by the Funicolare, for which the hotel offers a transfer, or by taxi. Special mention to Gianpaolo, who is very kind, trustworthy, and fair; he was the driver who assisted us during our stay! The highlight of Hotel Paradiso is the view, both from the rooms and the restaurant—you won’t find anything like it in Como! It's a shame we didn’t have more time to enjoy the pool, which has an even more outstanding view of the lake than the photos you see online. We definitely recommend it!

We booked a double comfort room but we’re put in a disabled access room. Neither of us have mobility issues and are supposed to be on a romantic weekend away and we thought by booking a 4 star hotel we would get the romantic atmosphere advertised on line. We asked about room service when we arrived as it was quite late and were met with a response of “nothings open” despite the website advertising 24hour room service with no extra charge and free water from the mini bar. When we got to our room there was a notice on the side with information about the room service hours which also stated there would be a 3€ charge just to call down to room service, as well as a note on the mini bar stating a 1.50€ fee for water. Our bathroom does not have the bidet that’s stated in the room description online and the toilet is raised far too high for either of us to use comfortably. The rest of the bathroom is completely bare, with not so much as a shower curtain. Our safe does not work, despite someone coming to change the batteries inside and still no resolution to our issue! We have only one bedside table and had to resort to using the cheap plastic chair as a replacement on one side of the bed. The receptionist was less than cooperative when we went down to discuss our feelings/options and we were met with “we don’t change the bookings this is what you booked”. After showing her our booking and where it stated what we paid for she responded with “we’re full so we can’t move you unless you want to sleep separately or if someone cancels” . We feel as though we have been lied to and don’t feel as though we have been provided with the service that we have paid for. Having seen the room pictures online of what we had actually booked we are completely disgusted and can’t help feeling a bit discriminated against due to us being a same sex couple. It’s our first time in Milan and this has truly tainted our view and will probably not be coming back at all.

Molto soddisfatto. Unico piccolo problema è che l'ascensore dal secondo piano non ci faceva scendere per andare al piano terra, dovevamo per forza andare al -1 per poi salire con le scale. Ma è l'unica nota leggermente negativa in un'esperienza ottima.

Excellent location, in the center (it's a plus but also a penalty for the noise down the street until late at night, especially on weekends). But we must be honest, there is a lot to work on the structure ... Room sold as superior but the superiors are far from it. No TV in the room and this is serious for me if you sell a 'superior' for almost €100 a night. Bad soundproofing, you could also hear the snoring of the rooms next door ... Very inconvenient the fact that it is on a third floor without a lift and therefore only stairs, and at the end of the day it is really hard, impossible for families with prams or the handicapped. Poorly maintained entrance door on the street, it borders the service door of a restaurant / bar that gives off strong smells at all hours. Appreciated the coffee maker in the room and the water, but this does not enhance the structure itself. The bidet leaked, an air conditioner mounted on the kitchen hood with drain pipe in the sink of the same. For a room sold as a Superior at almost €100 a night I would say absolutely not...Ok the cleaning and telephone courtesy of the staff (I say telephone since we have never met the owners for obvious personal reasons, nor is there a reception). to say that they were very courteous in leaving the room for us even after check-out time without a supplement, truly a convenience for those who visit and then return before leaving.
