Hotel Barchetta is all about location, location, location. We travelled by train from Milan to the station of Como San Giovanni and walked down to the hotel which took about 15 minutes with cases. (Best to take a taxi for the return leg). The central location provided an ideal base from which to explore Como, the lake and take in a day visit to Lugano in Switzerland. Views from lake fronting bedrooms are simply stunning, city facing views are not as attractive. The breakfast menu was the same each day and offered a choice of something cooked (typically scrambled eggs, sausage and bacon) against the continental alternative of meat / cheese / bread / pastries, plus loads of fresh fruit. Excellent.
Our stay was at the height of the summer season, but it is still reasonable to say the hotel was not cheap given facilities are limited to a bedroom (shower over the bath), dining room and a rather dingy bar/restaurant cum reception area. It is also possible to eat on a terrace fronting the hotel entrance which is close to passing traffic and walkers. All of the above needs to be balanced against the key feature of the hotel which is ‘location’.

Excellent breakfast. Great variety. Very friendly staff. Matteo at the front desk was very helpful and spoke English. He went the extra mile by helping make our 25th anniversary extra special.
We had a last minute change and we were trying to decide if we stayed an extra night here or near the airport. Although you ere going to have a vacancy your price was not low enough so we went down the street and rented a nice apartment for less than half the price. The staff could have worked with us to get us to stay even if it was in a different room.

The Barchetta Excelsior is in the ideal location in Como. Directly across the street from the lake and ticket offices for excursions. Restaurants and shopping right around the corner. The hotel staff could not have been nicer. The restaurant recommendations were amazing. The rooms are large, comfortable, clean and quiet. The breakfast buffet is amazing and the staff was very accommodating each morning. Great stay!!
Parking was a major challenge. It sounds easy, but it is a bit complicated. You are dealing with another hotel/property.

Great location facing the lake , booked a lake view room with a nice balcony Good access to the promenade and short walk to the funicular Located in the historic old town, there is easy access to all the shops and lots of restaurants Room was pleasant although a bit dated Breakfast was good Parking was at a sister hotel 5mins away so not too bad
The bathtowel wasn't clean which was disgusting Slightly noisy due to the bus route directly in from of the hotel

Great location in the centre of Como city with lake views from our balcony. The room was roomy and comfortable. Breakfast was included and was comprehensive, but the same each day. A bar and restaurant within the hotel provided some easy options close to home at night.
While the breakfast was comprehensive, it was the same every day with scrambled eggs the only option. Sadly the eggs were cold 3 days out of 5. Our bathroom was dated, with a shower over the bath, with no safety handles or bars for people of our age. The Taos for the bath were on the side wall where you stood under the shower (very awkward).

Location is great, right up against the lake, with superb views, although sadly road construction made it a little noisy and dusty. But can’t be helped. Breakfast was decent, standard continental, good selection, including gluten and dairy free options. Bar was good enough, decent atmosphere, friendly staff, usual array of drinks of offer, a decent whisky selection, large array of single malt scotch (laga 8, laphroaig 10 CS, etc) along with usual array of spirits, wine, beer and some classic Italian cocktails. Restaurant was decent also, some stuff is frozen and re-heated/finished rather than coming from fresh. But some items are fresh. Again, friendly service, a little expensive for what it is. But it’s Como. Most places are about 15% or more above market average, so not terribly surprising considering the location. But atmosphere and service makes it worth it, if feeling lost for a place to eat one evening. Bed is a little firm for our liking, and the air-con in our room didn’t seem to be that effective. But the hotel is excellent and good value given what you get. Staff are also amazing and very helpful. Reception staff are very helpful and always happy to answer any questions. We got a good rundown of local attractions and points of interest, including a decent place or two to eat. Boat times etc. Room was very clean, friendly and efficient turndown service. Cleaned every day. Fresh water bottles, towels, toiletries, toilet paper etc.
As stated above, the road works being carried out at the time of our visit made things a little noisy, and the dust made it unpleasant to leave the window/balcony door open at night. This wouldn’t have been much of an issue had our air-con been a little more effective. As our room got quite warm and stuffy at night. So, Road works not normally an issue, but if you’re not able/comfortable sleeping with the balcony door open, it might be hot/stuffy. The bed is also a little firm/hard for our preference, so not an issue for some, isn’t comfortable for us, so keep in mind when booking. As can affect sleep for some.

A nice hotel in a great location. Despite facing a big square by the lake the room was quiet as the windows are very well soundproofed. The room was big clean and comfortable.
The shower wasn't very comfortable because it was over a bathtub so there was no room for moving. For what it offers it was very expensive...at over 350 a night. I know I booked it one or two days before arrival but still. I did the same in Zurich and I paid 270.

We have stayed at the Barchetta on two previous occasions. The hotel is ideally situated by the lake and in easy walking distance of the many boutique shops and restaurants in Como. On this occasion we brought some friends and as per our requests were given three rooms next to each other with views over the piazza to the lake. Breakfast was very good, continental and hot offerings with only a slight gliche on one morning with a delay for croissants to be put out.
Aside from a minor negative bar experience on one evening, we couldn't really fault anything. We would certainly stay again next time we visit Como.

Great location, you can walk to everything. You can also drive right up to the hotel to unload your bags and then park in a secure park house within easy walking distance for which the hotel provides a discount. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Rooms are quiet, clean and bed was very comfortable. The buffet breakfast is good with all the usual things you would expect.
