Exceptional stay! This was my best stay through Greece and Italy over the past 2 months. Great location, an easy walk to San Giovanni Train Station, the lake and the town centre. Both the room and the bathroom were exceptionally clean and nice and spacious. Shower had good pressure and hot water. Bed and pillows very comfortable Very quiet, great sleep. Charging points and light switches in good convenient locations. Good heating on cold nights! Staff friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend!

The hotel is quaint, nice and clean for the price and is about a 15 minute walk to the downtown area. The staff are friendly and helpful. Now the downside which really is not the hotel's fault. Lake Como lacks public transportation in a big way! Uber is unheard and I am not sure taxi''s exist only to get from the train station but once you get to your destination you will be hard pressed to get to anywhere if you need a ride. It is basically impossible. We had to cancel 2 dinner reservations because we could not get there. The town of Como is so so. There is a ferry to take you to other small towns on the lake but that is a nightmare. We went to buy a ticket in advance but you are not allowed. The day of the trip you wait on an extremely long line only to be told it is a one way ticket and you have to get off the ferry and stand on another line to buy a ticket to return because they get sold out. Lastly, after you have waited to buy the return ticket you find out the only ticket you can buy is the 2 hour slow boat ride back the fast boat is sold out already. There has to be a better way. They should tell you when you are buying the 1st ticket that the return fast boat is already sold out. If you can afford you can rent a private boat but do that way in advance because to get one on that day is impossible and they are expensive.

Our experience here was very good. Friendly staff helped us park five minutes away at the train station. We had our own mini courtyard for afternoon wine breaks. Breakfast was varied and included hot food and capuccini. The only snag was with plumbing. The shower had baffling controls, cabinet doors level with the floor that didn't seal completely and a drain that was plugged, so water flooded the bathroom and into the bedroom. Another member of our party found their sink clogged. Both these issues were quickly resolved to our satisfaction by staff. We recommend this place.

One of the nice things when staying in any hotel is waking up and making yourself a coffee from the tea and coffee tray provided. Well not at Borgo Antico ! When I asked for coffee for my rom I was told "We don't provide coffee in the room as we sell it in the bar" This is the only hotel in the world that I have experienced this and basically mean spirited, hence only 2 stars. The bathroom had a powerful shower that the shower tray couldn't cope with and flooded the bathroom within 1 minute. Everything else was fine. Helpful staff, nice breakfast and conveniently located. It's the coffee situation that really let the place down for me !

Response from Borgo Antico, Proprietario at Borgo Antico Hotel
Responded Oct 10, 2023
Dear Guest, We are shocked by his review. It never happened that one of our receptionists didn’t bring coffee to the room. Our room service costs in addition to the cost of the drink 5 euros. Maybe the receptionist told you that it was not convenient to have a room service for just one coffee and that you could have it at the bar and bring it to the room. We’re very sorry about this. Sincerely, Hotel Borgo Antico - Reception

A good traditional style smaller hotel. Room decent size but rather dark. Excellent shower and comfortable bed. Breakfast reasonable but limited. Great coffee and free top ups. Rather irritating dripping noises from metal pipe outside. Good value at Como prices.

Here for the Monza GP and this hotel was included as part of the package via the tour operator. Basic hotel most importantly it is clean and the staff are very friendly and professional. However would not recommend getting a room that sleeps 3 adults - they have converted a 2 person room and added what is essentially a camp bed. The beds are too small and the room is cramped.

Excellent room, great breakfast. Hotel is in a quiet street and close to San Giovanni station. About 15 to 20 minutes walk from the lake boat tours and main restaurant area. Staff at hotel were very helpful and friendly.

Don’t be fooled by the star rating of this hotel. We stayed for six nights and had an excellent time the staff without exception are very friendly and attentive. They readily share their knowledge of the local area when asked to do so giving little hints and tips that makes things just a little bit easier. The location of the hotel is fantastic a 10 minute walk to the shore of the lake, and a five minute walk to the main train station, making trips Into Milan and the surrounding area very easy. The room was spacious with an excellent bathroom. We stayed on the ground floor and had a small patio area. Pillows are a pet passion of mine and very much subject to personal preference. For me they were slightly firmer than I would like, but I am absolutely nitpicking here because I slept soundly! The bed was large and the room had a kettle. No fridge in the room but the bar is open 24 hours and we were able to get milk to make tea and coffee in the room. The breakfast is has a wide variety and an impressive machine where you can boil eggs jut to your personal taste. My husband would suggest an ice water bowl to help cool the eggs down again very nitpicking here. Wi-Fi was feee and excellent. We had a hire care and although there is no onsite parking, you can pull up at the front of the hotel to drop luggage and we always manage to get on street parking which you paid for by the hour within easy, walking distance of the hotel, only ever a couple of minutes away. There are other structured car parks if you would prefer
