La proprietà — Selve di Rogaro
Selve di Rogaro is a quiet, family-run three-star set on a hillside above Como, offering lake and mountain views from its garden and small pool. The lobby feels more like a welcoming country house than a typical hotel, with wooden furnishings and a relaxed, unhurried atmosphere. It suits travellers who want a peaceful base outside Como’s centre, with free parking and easy access to walking trails. The USP is its position: you get the tranquillity of the Rogaro hills without the crowds or noise of the lakefront.
Cronache di Como
Como was founded as a Roman settlement, Novum Comum, in 59 BC by Julius Caesar, strategically placed at the southern tip of Lake Como. Its medieval centre grew around the cathedral, a Gothic-Renaissance masterpiece begun in 1396, and the Broletto town hall. The city’s silk industry boomed from the 15th century, making Como a European textile hub—a legacy that continues in the Museo della Seta. Today, Como balances a working city identity with tourism, its narrow streets and lakeside promenade drawing visitors year-round.
Il momento migliore per visitare
Guida completa di Como →I migliori mesi
May, June, September — warm, mostly sunny days with fewer crowds than July and August; lake swims are possible in June and September.
Peak / Festival Surge
July and August are peak season, driven by summer holidays and the Como Palio (boat race and medieval festival) in late August. Hotel prices double or triple; book months ahead.
Stagione di spalla
April and October offer mild weather (15–20°C), far fewer tourists, and hotel discounts of 30–50%. The lake is quieter and walking trails are free of summer heat.
Meteo e imballaggio
Lake Como can get sudden afternoon thunderstorms even in July, so pack a lightweight rain jacket or umbrella. Hard rule: always carry a layer for evening breezes off the lake.
Briefing della città — Como
- Como’s Funicular to Brunate is undergoing maintenance from June 2026—check if it’s running; if closed, the bus 11 serves Brunate as a backup.
- New pedestrian zone on Via Plinio (lakefront) introduced in 2025, making the old town less car-choked but busier with foot traffic.
- Lake water levels are seasonally low in July 2026 due to an ongoing dry spell, so lake-tour boat berths may be limited—book trips in advance.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Selve di Rogaro, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Girare intorno
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.

Principali attrazioni a 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.
