I came with two family members. We had paid to upgrade our room before arriving & were not in the least bit disappointed with what we were given, room 17 has no balcony to sit out on but French doors open to reveal an amazing view of Bellagio. The room is large, airy and had a massive bathroom - excellent... More

Recently returned from Lake Como and stayed at Britannia Excelsior Hotel. Whilst checking in at a chaotic reception desk we were asked if we wished to upgrade our room to one with a lake view and balcony for an additional 40 euros. We were not given the opportunity to see either the standard room we'd booked or the upgrade. The... More

Perfect setting on the lakeside, grand public rooms, free wi-fi, good food, an excellent pool with bar and restaurant, all inclusive drinks, helpful staff and very comfortable beds. Oh, and a free launch across the lake to the beautiful town of Bellagio - what more could you want? The hotel is busy, presumably because it is good, but there were... More

We have just returned from a 6 night stay at this hotel, travelling independently. We greatly enjoyed it. The location is excellent. The ferry is 3 minutes walk, and the view stunning. I have stayed in many hotels over the years in England, Europe and the Far East, from 5 star downwards. Reading some of the less complimentary reviews makes... More

As others, I travelled here with Shearings. On arrival, I was allocated room 42, the room was small, but contained a double bed (well twins pushed together), it had a small window which overlooked the carpark, and it was quite chilly on arrival (good for the hot months) but my main problem was the shower was the tiniest one I'd...

We arrived on April 10th at the hotel on for a week’s stay with Shearings. On arrival we were offered the chance to upgrade to a Lake view for €30 or to a Balcony & Lake View for €40. This was well worth it because the view of the lake is by far the best feature of the area. The... More
