We went to Como for a short vacation. We found the hotel to be clean and the staff were always helpful and courteous. We had a lake view room. The room was nice, clean, but small. It did seem to work and we were not disappointed. The elevators are very small, but that didn't really have an impact on us.... More

The location is wonderful - less than 2 minutes walk to the main square where you'll find all the shops and restaurants / bars that you could possibly want. We booked a lake view room which came with a small (but adequate) balcony and a great big view which was amazing. The room was a reasonable size, not huge but... More

The staff at reception were fantastic and giving us a tourist information service and had some great recommendations on how to spend our time in Como (and the surrounding area). The hotel is a short stroll from the main square and everything else Como has to offer, if we ever get back to Como we'd definitely stay there again. The... More

The hotel is great outside, it is very old and you can feel the spirit of old times Italian resort. The service is perfect. The location is wonderful - walking distance to the funicolare to go up and admire the scenic views of the lake and around. The view from the window of the lake-view rooms is amazing! But the...

Dear Guest, thank you for your recent review. Your compliments regarding the service are most appreciated. Nevertheless, to avoid misleading Tripadvisor readers I must point out that the rate you paid of €200 is definitely not that of a 5-star hotel, but indeed an average rate of the 4-star hotels in the city centre, for a lake-view room. Very best... More

We love this hotel because location is very good. Rooms and bathrooms are huge and clean. Historical ambiance is very good. Reasonable price (off season).

Palace Hotel is located right in front of the lake. The main square and all interesting places are in a walking distance. It's an old building but in a very food condition. Rooms are nice but rather small (as almost everywhere in Italy). Of course the best ones are the ones with a view to the lake. The exterior is... More
