La propriété — Casa Angelo
Casa Angelo is a tidy, family-run 3-star just back from the lakefront, with a no-nonsense lobby that smells of polish and fresh coffee. Rooms are simple but spotless, and the selling point is the rooftop terrace with a direct view of the cathedral dome. It suits budget-conscious travellers who want a clean, central base for exploring Como on foot rather than paying for resort-style frills.
Chroniques de Como
Como was a Roman garrison town (Novum Comum) founded by Julius Caesar in 59 BCE, strategically placed at the southern tip of the lake. Its medieval heart grew up around the Duomo, which took nearly 400 years to complete and is a Gothic-Renaissance hybrid. The city was a silk-making powerhouse from the 15th century, and that industry still quietly defines its economic character today. Modern Como is a calm, prosperous city of 84,000 people, balancing its UNESCO-recognised historic centre with a steady stream of lake tourists.
Meilleur moment pour visiter
Guide complet de Como →Meilleurs mois
May and September: warm enough for lake swims and al fresco dining, but without July’s crush or humidity. June is also good, though crowds start building mid-month.
Peak / Festival surge
July and August are absolute peak: schools out across Europe, lake ferries are packed, and the Como–Bellagio route can feel like a cattle market. Hotel prices double or triple, and Casa Angelo will likely be fully booked weeks ahead. Events like the Palio del Baradello (late August) and folk festivals add local colour but don't spike prices as much as the general summer mania.
La saison des épaules
April and October offer the best value: rooms at 50-60% of July rates, with the lake still pleasant (12-18°C). You’ll walk straight into restaurants without a reservation.
Météo & Emballage
Como’s lake position creates sudden thunderstorms even in July — a day that starts blue can turn grey by 2pm. Pack a lightweight waterproof jacket and one pair of closed-toe shoes regardless of the forecast.
Briefing de la ville — Como
- Work on the lakeside promenade (Lungo Lario Trento) continues through 2026, with some sections fenced off near the Piazza Cavour ferry stop — expect minor walking detours.
- A new direct train service from Milano Centrale to Como San Giovanni runs every 30 minutes from June 2026, reducing journey time to 35 minutes.
- The Volta Temple museum reopens in January 2026 after a two-year renovation, adding a new interactive exhibit on Alessandro Volta’s battery invention.

Best views

🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →S’entourer
Find train tickets →Como San Giovanni station → El Paso Ranch, Via Martino
💡 Use lines C50 or C52; ask driver for stop ‘El Paso’ or walk 10 mins from Piazza Roma.
Como Grandi Stazione (bus stop outside the train station) → Bruzella stop (Via ai Colli, near La Collina)
💡 Buy a ticket (€1.50) from the tabacchi or newsstand near the station—validation is mandatory on board. The bus is steep and winding, so grab a seat. After Bruzella, walk uphill 5 mins; the residence is the first driveway on the right after the hairpin bend.
Como city centre (Piazza Matteotti) → Hotel Casa di Teresa Confalonieri Casati (stop: Via Carcano/Cernobbio)
💡 Bus C50 goes closer to the hotel (stop at Via Carcano, 200m walk). C40 stops at Piazza Roma — a 10-minute walk uphill. Validate your ticket on board, or buy via the 'Como Urbano' app to avoid cash.
Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP) → Hotel La Sorgente, via xx, Como
💡 Book in advance with an official 'NCC' car service for fixed rates around €100-120. Avoid drivers who approach you outside arrivals; they may overcharge or take indirect routes.
Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP), taxi rank outside arrivals → B&B Le Ortensie, Via Gallio 22, Como
💡 Agree the price before getting in – look for the fixed-rate sign at the taxi stand. For a group of 3–4, it's not much more than the bus. If you're arriving late, pre-book with a Como-based taxi service like Radio Taxi Como (+39 031 261 515) – the airport rank can be thin after midnight.
Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP) → Residence La Collina & La Collinetta, Como
💡 Pre-book with a local company like Comotaxi or TaxiComo to avoid surge pricing. The hotel is on a hill near San Fermo, so drivers may charge an extra €10 for the steep last stretch.
Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP) → Casa di Teresa Confalonieri Casati, Como
💡 Book a fixed-price transfer online beforehand — local taxis at the airport often charge €20–30 more. The hotel can arrange a driver for a similar rate.
Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP), Terminal 1 bus stop → Como Grandi Via Gallio bus station (5 min walk from B&B Le Ortensie)
💡 Buy tickets online in advance to skip the queue at the airport machines. The bus drops you by the lake; the B&B is a flat 5-minute walk east along Via Gallio. No shuttle runs after 10.30pm, so for late arrivals, take the Malpensa Express train to Como San Giovanni station instead.
Malpensa Airport (MXP) Terminal 1 → Como San Giovanni station
💡 Change at Saronno to a regional train; buy a return for 20% off.
Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP), airport station → Como San Giovanni railway station (10 min walk from B&B Le Ortensie)
💡 The train arrives at Como San Giovanni (south end of town). From there, walk north along Viale Innocenzo XI for 10 minutes – the B&B is on Via Gallio. Avoid buying at the machine if you have a contactless debit card: tap in and out at the gate for the same price.
Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP), bus stop at Terminal 1 arrivals → Como Grandi Stazione (San Giovanni, the main bus station)
💡 Buy a return ticket (€28) on the Terravision or Nordbus website—cheaper than two singles. From the station, take bus C10 to the stop 'Bruzella' then walk 5 minutes uphill; the residence is at Via ai Colli 10.
Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP) → Hotel La Sorgente, Como
💡 Buy a combined ticket from MXP to Como Lago station. At Milano Centrale change platforms but stay in the same direction. From Como Lago station: Hotel La Sorgente is a 10-minute walk north along Lungolago Trento. Cheaper than taxi, but takes longer.

Principales attractions à Como
💡 The tower climb costs €2 and gives panoramic views, but skip it if queues are long – better to walk up to Brunate for free views.
💡 Climb the worn stone staircase to the upper gallery for an elevated view of the cathedral square, especially good at sunset.
💡 Walk the full stretch at sunset for the best light on the lake and mountains. Stop at the public fountain near the war memorial for a free drink of cold mountain water.
💡 Look for the 13th-century fresco of St. Christopher on the left wall. Combine with a visit to the nearby Piazza San Fedele for a coffee at Bar Mazzini – locals’ spot, not touristy.
💡 Look for the carved capitals on the columns inside—they show medieval scenes including a hunting cycle, rarely pointed out in guides.
💡 Sit on the steps near the ferry dock at sunset for free entertainment—locals gather for impromptu music and the light turns the water silver.
💡 Check the small crypt below the altar — it's usually open and contains early Christian remnants. Combine with a walk through the adjacent old fish market square.
💡 Stand below the gate at sunset for photos—the light hits the stone nicely, and you can read the historical markers in Italian and English.
