Guest Reviews
- Kaoutar (10/5): - The location of the Hotel is amazing - in front of the boat stop Urio :)
- Paula (6/5): - Det var bra att vi inte visste innan vi bokade boendet hur långt bort Orso Bruno var från Como. Det fina var att området var väldigt lungt men att det fanns en "hamn" station mitt emot hotellet. Våran familj gjorde dagsutflykter och kom tillbaka till lugnet och njöt utav det. Läget vid vattnet gör verkligen ett lyft för hotellet som i sig inte är något märkvärdigt. De få middags alternativen i omnejd är hotellet resturang, resturangen i porten brevid (som är stängd torsdagar) samt 10 min bort finns det alternativ med lättare tilltugg... Så det finns en del att önska vid utbud och något man bör ha i åtanke till innan man bosätter sig i Orzo men för oss som endast stannade i 3 nätter var det bra! Rummet 303 var rymligt för en tvåbarnsfamilj men vi hade hemskt mycket insekter på vårat rum. ACen var livsviktig. Det var enkla inredda rum som var lyhörda från hiss och andra boendens rum på samma våning. Liten hiss. Det enda värt att klaga över var den översvämda duschen. Vi tog alla snabba duschar och det var nästan vatten ut i hallen pga dåligt flöde i duschgolvet.
- Leslie (8/5): - Hotel was wonderful and restaurant was very good! Hardest part was finding transportation to and from the hotel and the water taxi stops less frequently than other stops so plan accordingly.
- Naomi (10/5): - Beautiful little hotel in the stunning Lake Como! Breakfasts were brilliant - what a view. The ferry left from right outside and it was walkable to a couple of nice restaurants. We had the family room for four which was perfectly adequate for us. Would highly recommend this hotel. I would stay again if I’m ever lucky enough to be back in lake Como!
- Jennifer (10/5): - Unfortunately I arrived late and had to leave early for business but they made it very easy for me to collect my keys, access my room and parking and the room was lovely.
- Bjarki (10/5): Thanks for a lovely stay - Our family of five, including two teenagers, had a truly pleasant stay at the family-run Orso Bruno. Finding accommodation for us in a single room can be a challenge, but Orso Bruno offered a fantastic family room that comfortably fit everyone. The convenient Bus-Boat stop right outside the hotel made exploring Como town and the surrounding lakeside villages a breeze. We also enjoyed the breakfast and dinner, and the staff were exceptionally helpful and welcoming throughout our stay. We will absolutely be returning! 10/10
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Majoutus oli todella hyvä ja mukava. Aamiainen oli melko suppea ja sisälsi vähän mitään proteiininlähteitä. Lisäksi siivoja vei pikakahvit huoneesta ensimmäisen yön jälkeen.
- SILVIA (8/5): - Beautiful property in front of the ferry top and the bus stop that takes you to the train station and Como it also has a beautiful lake view but the rooms are so small
- Marta (10/5): - So calm and nice place. Thank you for upgrading our room for free. I recommend to take a breakfast, it’s was so tasty.
- Joshua (10/5): - Staff was amazing, excellent meals. The owners are amazing, genuie people.
- Melissa (10/5): - Beautiful location with great restaurant choices within walking distance. We will be back!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Excellent! - This hotel is amazing, terrific balcony with a pretty view and the staff is very accommodating to make things special. The breakfast was worth the money too
- Claudia (10/5): - Great location, staff outstanding and service friendly
- Anders (8/5): Fint hotel med top udsigt. - Rigtig fint hotel med en flot beliggenhed og en hyggelig restaurant tilknyttet. Lidt gammelt og sengene ikke så gode, men vi var der kun en nat så for os var det meget fint
- Chi hung (10/5): - Nice location and staff are friendly
- Brent (10/5): - Great location
- Ioana (10/5): - The highlight of our trip was the room: spacious, clean, and cozy, with beautiful views of Lake Como. I highly recommend the room with a terrace, which for us was an unmatched experience; we felt like never leaving! Dinner at the hotel’s restaurant was also delicious (highly recommend the lasagna) and served in a cozy space with views of the lake. Plus, the location is perfect, right next to the ferry station, with boats available to Como and Bellagio, as well as a number of buses. I couldn't have asked for a better stay. Highly recommended!
- Adam (10/5): - Adorable little hotel. Restaurant and staff were incredible. Already recommended to friends coming to comp this summer
- Claudia (8/5): - Sehr schön gelegen, sehr kleines Schlafzimmer aber alles sehr gepflegt. Gutes Essen
- Armida (10/5): Beat staff ever! - I normally don’t take the time to write a review but the staff at this hotel were so good that I needed to make sure I wrote a review to tell people about it. The staff went above and beyond to try to help with our accommodations. He was so nice! He made our trip be extraordinary. From helping us get a cab to tieing a tie, he did everything he could to help us and make our stay pleasant. Highly recommend.
- Parkerlene (10/5): - Great
- danielle (8/5): - Hôtel bien situé , confortable, bon petit déjeuner .Un seul petit bémol : l ´hotel a retiré le prix de la chambre ainsi que le prix du parking, qu on avait rajouté un peu plus tard ,sans nous prévenir ,5 jours avant notre arrivée .Donc on a eu un retrait qui ne correspondait pas au montant initial ( le parking ayant été rajouté ) et nous avons dû appeler la banque en France pour savoir qui avait fait ce retrait . Un e-mail lors du retrait par l hôtel pour nous prévenir aurait été plus correct je pense …
- René (10/5): Cadre enchanteur pour un séjour aux petits soins - super séjour. accueil et personnel efficaces et très sympathiques
- Rosemary (10/5): - Friendly staff, beautiful view and location.
- MR P J LANDY (10/5): Great family locations - Great stay for the family. Wonderful setvice
- Ariane (10/5): - Wunderbar kleines Hotel, perfekt für eine Nacht! Eine Tischreservation im Restaurant ist sehr empfehlenswert da es in Gehdistanz auch keine andere Optionen gibt. Das Essen war hervorragend!
- Matthias (10/5): Tolles Hotel mit gutem Restaurant - Das Hote liegt super am Comer See und ist sehr stilvoll eingerichtet. Top Zustand und sehr nettes Personal (trotz Masken). Neben dem Hotel ist auch noch eine super Weinbar, der Bootsanleger und ein weiteres sehr schönes Restaurant (hatte montags leider zu). Absolute Empfehlung
- Manuela (10/5): - Soggiorno oerfetto, consigliatissimo!
- MarkP (8/5): - We enjoyed the stay, hotel is clean, well located, and opposite a very good restaurant in Acqua Dolce. Ferry terminal is at the door step, and the area is quiet, relaxed and wonderful. Rooms are smallish, as with most in Europe, but value fir money here is excellent, as was the hotel service
- Elizabeth (10/5): - Perfect location and view. Excellent service, helpful and friendly staff. If ever go back, would definitely consider staying there again. Thank you
- MARY (10/5): Fabulous Hotel - This hotel is amazing. The views are spectacular, the service is outstanding and the food is delicious. We were here for 5 nights and loved it.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - La atención del personal y la u ubicación. Muy buena vista al lago.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - nous avons aimé cet hôtel pour la qualité de ses chambres et nous avons dîné au restaurant c'était très bien petit bémol la situation de l'hôtel bien pour la tranquillité mais il faut la voiture pour tout autre petit bémol nous avons été prélevé de notre carte bleue 2 jours avant de notre arrivée alors que nous avions confirme notre venue c'est dommage c'est la première fois que ça nous arrive je trouve logique comprenne la garantie de la carte bleue par contre illogique de faire le débit avant jour de la prestation
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Un manque d’informations concernant la navigation pour le reste tout était impeccable
- Charlotte (10/5): dejlig pension i Como - skønt og hyggeligt lille pensionat, super morgenmad og ligger ideelt ift søen
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Gentillesse et disponibilité du personnel emplacement : au bord du lac, proximité des restaurants, parking de l'hotel
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We had a very friendly and helpful greeting. The onsite restaurant is closed Tuesdays but we were helped to make a booking at the superb restaurant nearby (Aqua Dolce) Parking was easy in the hotels reserved spaces in a shared car park next door. Views from hotel terrace and our room were amazing. Cannot recomnend this hotel enough.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Nice stay - Very good restaurant, very good breakfast with home made products, fantastic view on the lake
- Isaac (10/5): - Excellent hospitality, friendliness and service. Made us feel like we were at home with family. Attended us above and beyond for anything. Will definitely come back here many times!!! We recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Lago Como.
- Joey (10/5): - Great hotel staff was excellent could have told us to park for free on the street instead of charging us 10 eur
- Wissam (10/5): Great Hotel with an amazing wiew! - Fresh and clean room with an amazing wiew, and the Hotel staff was very service minded, i had e great experince. I highly recomend this place!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Good location, kind helpful staff, and a big comfy bed with a view. Can't ask for much more. The pizza at the restaurant is some of the best we had while in Italy. The included reakfast is delicious as well. No fridge or safe in the room but WiFi and air conditioning work very well. Would definitely stay here again
- Sameer (4/5): Very friendly staff. - The hotel is overlooking Como lake and has a nice setting area adjacent to the lake. Very good breakfast with a nice view to the lake. The staff are very friendly and cooperative. Excellent rating and I recommend them strongly.
- Teofilo (10/5): Picturesque and Romantic Lake Como Escape! - We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Orso Bruno. The staff was friendly and very helpful. We had a room with a lake view and balcony, and the views of Lake Como were breathtaking. The ferry stops 3 times a day right in front of the hotel, and we had a memorable day traveling to Bellagio and back. Also, the C20 bus stops right in front of the hotel. The day we arrived, we mistakenly took the C10 bus from Como to the Carate-Urio stop, but it dropped us off higher up the mountain. Thankfully, we met a kind woman named Marta who showed us the way down the cobblestone path into Urio. It was tough with two suitcases, but we struck up a conversation with Marta, and ended befriending her and meeting up with her the next day! The breakfast was fantastic (we still talk about it!) and our stay was just wonderful in every way. Keep in mind that Urio is a very small, quiet town north of Como, and there is not a lot of activity there. Which was just fine for us. If you want a quiet, romantic escape on Lake Como, this is the place!
- Erik (10/5): Spectacular view - Nice family run business. Very attentive to any questions or needs.
- 4 Friends (8/5): Great view and pizza! - This is a gem of a hotel. Simple but effective and an incredible view. The ferry is also right outside for a hop on / hop off adventure. The pizza/risotto in the restaurant is fantastic and the breakfast is traditional with cheese and meats, fresh fruit and pastries. Parking is very easy as the hotel has reserved spaces. The roads are fun, a tad narrow but add to the whole experience. The friendly staff booked us a boat hire in the next village along and were happy to advise on ferry times and places to eat. Overall a great stay. :) The wine bar down stairs is also superb!!
- Steve (10/5): - Great room. Great view. Super friendly staff and owners. Bus stop and boat dock right at the hotel.
- Phil (10/5): Great hotel on the banks of Lake Como - From the minute we arrived we loved this place. This hotel is exactly as good as the photos show. The owners were so nice and it felt like a family hotel. Our room was compact but very comfortable. They even did a bag of washing for us which after 4 weeks on the road was very welcome. We enjoyed dinner in the restaurant one evening and breakfast every morning. We spent a day on the lake using the ferries to get around and the owners were very helpful in telling us which ferries to take etc. We got off the ferry in the next small village Moltrasio and had a great meal at La Baia di Moltrasio and then walked back to Orso Bruno I cannot recommend this place highly enough, it was a highlight of our holiday.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Poor hotel - There was some chemical odour in our room, even the open windows didn't help. The view is beautiful, but the road is under hotel Windows, so it's very noisy. Breakfast buffet is very poor.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Quite, clean and romantic place - The hotel is near the lake. Make sure you have a proper navigation to get to the hotel. Our navigation system wasn't able to find the given street name. It took us quite a time to get there.
- Wendy (10/5): Overnight stop Lake Como Hotel Orso Bruno - We stayed at Hotel Orso Bruno for one night while travelling through Italy. Asked for a room with a view of Lake Como, which we did have, although a very small view as the Hotel is not lakeside but across the narrow road and there are buildings opposite. The roads around Lake Como are very narrow and busy,there are only a few touristy spots along the road. Where Hotel Orso Bruno is situated there is not much else around. Parking for around 3 cars is available opposite the hotel,and is chargeable, but reception told us that there is free public parking, not sure where that is though. The Hotel restaurant serves mainly pizza and pasta dishes,there is a cafe underneath the restaurant.The staff were friendly and the room clean and comfortable. I would not like to stay more than one or two nights due to the position of the hotel.No drinks making facilities in the room.
- S (8/5): Great location. - Room small but great view. And a little sparse. Good decent food excellent value for money. Staff courteous and friendly.
- Richard (10/5): Cozy family run hotel on Lake Como - We loved our stay at Hotel Orso Bruno. It's run by a sweet couple who were very helpful. The staff were responsive and attentive and the breakfast buffet was well stocked. One thing we loved was that immediately outside the front door lay a bus stop and the water taxi pier. This made getting around, up and down the lake and to Como, really easy. Also, along the hillside above the hotel lay a neighborhood of small summer cottages accessible, essentially, only on foot. We hiked up the cobbled walkway through the charming neighborhood quite a ways up the hillside and eventually passed all the cottages onto a slope of terraces at the top of which was a small sanctuary/church. The views across, and up and down the lake were stunning at dawn. Would definitely stay at this hotel again. -Richard
- Greg (10/5): Loved it - If you're looking for nightlife and shopping, this is not your place. If you're looking for a peaceful lake experience - it would be hard to beat the Orso Bruno! Easy access to Como by either bus or boat ( the stop is across the street) , and good food in the restaurant . Family owned and run, great service and clean well appointed rooms. If we ever get back to Lago Como, this would be my first choice!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Lovely owners, very sweet hotel! - We were given a warm welcome. The owners are a friendly young couple and the hotel was perfect for our needs. The room was spacious and comfortable and the hotel is situated right next to the ferry stop which is convenient. The area is very quiet which is lovely for relaxing thought the difficulty at lake como is, unless you are at a restaurant, it's hard to find a place just to sit and enjoy the lake so it becomes very expensive. The hotel however suited our needs very well. Thank you!
- Robert (10/5): Great Stay! - This hotel is not in a town that has a lot of nightlife but if you're looking for some peace and quiet and a home base to visit other towns, this place is perfect. The owners, Antonia and Samuel were very helpful in finding our way to the other towns on the lake. There is a ferry that stops directly across from the hotel. The hotel restaurant has good food at reasonable prices. There is another restaurant across from the hotel but we did not try it. We had room 204 which was very clean and good size. . The bathroom was nicely finished and good size also. It has a shower that is much bigger than most European hotel showers. The balcony looks over the lake and was nice to sit and watch people go by.
- Rd (6/5): Beware of location - If you do not have a car I would advise you to avoid this hotel as the bus and boat services are limited. The hotel also kept providing us with misinformation which was frustrating and disappointing.
- Luke (10/5): Beautiful and accomodating - What an amazing hotel, ran by an amazing couple. Too short of a stay, we will soon be back for a longer weekend for sure. Food was great at the hotel restaurant. We were even given passes to the local swimming area where we laid out. highly recommended.
