A propriedade — Hotel Posta
Hotel Posta is a practical 3-star choice on Como’s main square, Piazza del Duomo. The lobby feels like a functional Italian hotel from the 1970s — tiled floors, a small front desk, a lift that clatters. The location is the draw: you step out into the cathedral’s shadow and two minutes from the lakefront. It suits budget-minded travellers who want to be in the thick of Como’s historic core and don’t mind worn furnishings.
Crónicas de Como
Como began as a Roman settlement (Novum Comum) in 196 BC, later became a key silk-trading centre in the Middle Ages. Its cathedral, begun in 1396, took four centuries to finish, mixing Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque styles. The city’s palazzos and neoclassical villas along the lake reflect its 18th- and 19th-century prosperity as a holiday retreat for Milanese aristocrats. Today, Como is a gateway to Lake Como’s western shore, balancing silk workshops, cafés and ferry connections with a quieter, more lived-in feel than Bellagio.

Guia completo de Como →Melhores meses
May and September: warm but not oppressive, crowds moderate, accommodation prices below July-August peaks.
Peak / Festival Surge
July and August: peak tourist season across Lake Como. Hotel rates can double; streets and ferries are packed. The Palio del Baradello (medieval pageant) in early July draws extra visitors.
Orçamento da temporada
April and October: decent discounts (20-40% off August rates), fresh weather (10-20°C), far fewer tourists, and still plenty of sunshine.
Tempo e embalagem
Como in July often hits 30°C with humidity but can also see sudden thunderstorms rolling off the Alps. Pack a lightweight rain jacket or umbrella plus sun protection; evening temperatures drop to around 18°C, so a light sweater or shawl is useful.

- Lake Como’s passenger ferry schedules shift to summer timetables from late March; book direct ferries to Bellagio/Varenna in advance via navigazionelaghi.it to avoid long queues
- The old town’s limited traffic zone (ZTL) is strictly enforced in summer — cars without a hotel permit face fines up to €90, so check with Hotel Posta for access instructions
- Como’s Funicolare to Brunate (panoramic viewpoint) runs daily until 10 PM in summer; recent renovation has improved capacity but queues still form by mid-morning

🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Vindo ao redor
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.

Principais atrações em 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.
