Husband and I stayed 4 nights recently at the Palace. Recommended by our travel agent. Had a small but adequate room overlooking the lake- beautiful. Central to everything, even achievable to walk there from the station with suitcases. Breakfast good, staff helpful. Room cleaners excellent. On your travels you get used to some basics which the palace didnt offer. Free... More

Just came back from a bank holiday stay in Como and stayed at the Palace Hotel. Overall, very satisfied with the stay. Pluses: - Very central location. Everything is easily within walking distance - boats, shopping area, bars, duomo - and the Como Nord Lago station (which will take you to the Cadorna stop in Milan) is literally just around... More

The palace hotel is very central in como offering only a short walk to the funicular up the mountain, the river cruises, a McDonalds, Expert (electronics store) and the main square is only 100 meters away. Beds are excellent with comfy beds and the superior view rooms are magnificent. Perhaps the not draw back is, that for the price you... More

Literally metres from everything in Como. Conveniently located within walking distance of most of Como, the Duomo and shopping village/town centre. Many restaurants within walking distance. Neat, tidy rooms and friendly and helpful staff.

The Palace Hotel is perfectly located in Como and convenient to just about everything while facing the lake. The ferry boats are just meters down from the hotel with a local commuter train one block away. The main train terminal is approximately 800 meters walk from the hotel or you can take a taxi for about 6 euros. Our room... More

Stayed here with my then girlfriend, now wife. Waterfront, near ferries, plaza, duomo, and sociale restaurant ( which is a must). Rooms are nothing special, bed was a tad hard, but you cant beat the location. Pricey, but worth it. We will be back

The location of this hotel warrants the price they charge. So the real value is in their service and friendliness. The rooms are somewhat tight, but that can be expected in an older hotel adding a king bed. Great value. We will definitely go back.
