Albergo Terminus

We just finished a three night stay at Albergo Terminus Hotel and could not be any happier with our experience. The location is excellent--you're literally five minute's walk to the train station, the Duomo and Piazza Mazzini. If you want to take the Funicular to the top of the mountain it's just a couple minutes past the train station. The restaurant and lounge on the second floor have lovely views of the lake and we found it to be a great place in the evening for an aperitif. The staff was very accommodating, nothing was too much for them. The front office team and Valentina were wonderful. We had rented bicycles to do some touring and the staff helped us lock them away in the evenings for safety. At breakfast the team always gave a warm greeting and made excellent coffees. The hotel feels that it has a great sense of history, but was very clean and well maintained. I did notice that there was some construction nearby but in no way did this detract from our experience, and no issues with noise. I would highly recommend this hotel for your Como visit as we thoroughly enjoyed our visit and exploring Como from this location.

We loved the location of this hotel, with its view of Lake Como and walking distance to Piazza Mazzini. We also loved the staff (thank you Elisa, Valentina, and the kitchen crew) who tirelessly helped us locate sites, provided directions, suggested restaurants and even helped coordinate delivery of my lost luggage. The included breakfast was delicious and plentiful with a good variety of food options. The bar was a nice place to sit and enjoy a glass of wine as was the 2nd floor lounge. What we didn't love was the lack of air conditioning, and at times, the rooms were very noisy due to the proximity to the road. Overall we were pleased with our stay.

Construction next door without warning! Very loud working starts at 7:30 am! Nobody feels responsible, no manager available! Still waiting for manager to contact us. This situation won‘t change for the upcoming months.

Location was wonderful-right across the street from the ferry. Good breakfast, room was on the small side-not a big deal though. Staff was very accommodating and helpful. HOWEVER, on our first night there-after traveling for 20 hours there was a party booked in the lounge just doors away from our room. To say they were playing loud music is an understatement. We are not complainers but this was absurd! We called the front desk and were told the party would be over by 11:30. It was not. Music went on until 12:30 am. Not a very good first nights sleep.

My sister and I stayed here for a week. Initially we were disappointed when we arrived as the small reception area wasn't shown on their website, but as we explored the rest of the hotel we cheered up. The bedrooms are quite small but very clean and comfortable. My sister's bathroom was modern but my shower had a plastic shower curtain. The safe was free and two bottles of water were provided every day. Breakfast was a highlight. Very attentive staff. Big bowls of fresh fruit salad, wonderful croissants, lemon/chocolate cake, pancakes, ham and cheese,etc. I think cooked choices were available, but we didn't enquire. We had dinner there twice and everything was of top quality, especially the gnocchi. The lakeside setting is a delight with a small garden overlooking the lake. A wonderful hotel in a fabulous setting.
