Palazzo Albricci Peregrini

Wow! This little gem of a hotel is truly magical. Elena and the staff helped me plan our trip to Como as soon as I booked. They answered questions and provide lots of tour options. When we arrived they were so warm and welcoming. Our room was wonderful. The provided breakfast was my breakfast loving husband’s dream come true!! The darling chef provided a wonderful homemade spread each morning. Don’t miss this spot in your trip to Como.

We stayed here based on all the 5 star reviews First the good. Excellent location right in the center of Como in the pedestrian zone. A bit difficult to get to if you are driving yourself. About a block from the cathedral square. Staff are incredibly attentive and helpful. They will do anything to help you and take care of you. It is indeed a restored palazzo and each room is unique. Bathrooms have been renovated with good hot water and pressure . The breakfasts are served to you with several very interesting choices some of which change daily. Food is excellent. Next the not so good. Quaint and charming does not always translate into luxurious rooms. It is not inexpensive to stay here and we did not find all the furniture up to par. There was pervasive perfume throughout as if they were trying to hide something . I have never experienced this before and it gave my wife a severe migraine which she rarely gets. The staff were responsive and changed our room to another with no carpeting. And we were able to complete our stay. Hence 4 stars. If you have any fragrance allergies this place is not for you.

Stayed here for 4 nights for our one year anniversary. We were informed at check in that the AC was not working (normally a red flag for me in Italy). Having said that, I decided to take the risk as the property is beautiful, the staff are amazing. The problems began out last night. Around 12am, the downstairs guests (children) decided to start smoking. Now normally this wouldn’t be an issue, except the AC wasn’t working for the duration of our stay which required us leaving the windows open. Soon thereafter, smoke started to fill our room, as they “partied” on their patio the loud voices and laughs rang through the breakfast courtyard. I called the emergency line and received a call back. The lady wasn’t apologetic as she had no idea based on my description which room we were in or who we were. Super disappointed as this was the first time we’ve encountered guests who acted like they were in Ibiza, in a city like Como. The service and property are immaculate but I’ve learned to stay away from the trash you have to spend ＞$1,000/night. Daddy/Mommy can’t or refuse to pay that much for their children to sleep/smoke.
