A propriedade — Miralago

Miralago sits directly on the lakefront, a 19th-century villa with a private pier and a small beach. The lobby is cool marble and polished wood, with a piano in the corner and lake views through tall windows. It feels like a quietly elegant lakeside retreat, not a flashy city hotel, best for couples or solo travellers who want to swim, boat and walk into Como’s old town in five minutes.

Crónicas de Como

Como was a Roman garrison town (Novum Comum) founded by Julius Caesar in 59 BC. Its medieval centre grew around the Duomo, built over 300 years in a mix of Gothic and Renaissance styles. The city later became a silk-making hub, and that industry still defines its identity—you’ll see silk workshops in the old streets and shops selling scarves and ties. Today Como is a prosperous, polished lakeside city, busy with day-trippers but keeping its own pace.

Melhores meses

May, June and September — warm enough for lake swimming, fewer crowds than July/August, and hotels are cheaper. June has long evenings and the Palio del Baradello festival.

Peak / Festival Surge

July and August are the busiest, with packed ferries and queues for the funicular. Prices at Miralago typically double from shoulder rates. The main draw is summer sun and the ‘La Lunga’ boat parade in August.

Orçamento da temporada

April and October offer discounts of 30–50% off summer rates, cooler but pleasant weather for walking, and empty lakefront promenades. The autumn foliage around the lake is stunning in October.

Tempo e embalagem

July in Como averages 28°C but can spike to 35°C with high humidity, so light layers are essential. Pack a swimsuit for the hotel’s lake access and a light jacket for sudden evening thunderstorms off the Alps.

Livro City Briefing — Como

  • The funicular to Brunate is closed for maintenance until 15 July 2026, so take the bus or taxi for the view.
  • New bike lane along the lakefront from Como to Cernobbio opened June 2025; rentals available at the port.
  • Expect road closures for the Festa di San Giovanni (24 June) and check ferry schedules—summer sailings are frequent but often sold out midday.

Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to Miralago, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Best rooms to request

Request rooms on the 3rd or 4th floor facing the lake (south side). These avoid street-level noise from Via Regina and give you a clear view over the water, especially from the upper floors where trees don't block sightlines.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Steer clear of rooms on the 1st floor (just above ground level) and any rooms overlooking the back courtyard or Via Regina. The 1st floor picks up restaurant kitchen noise and foot traffic from the street; rear rooms often face a service alley or neighbouring building with no view.

🪟

Best views

Lake-facing rooms offer a direct vista over Lake Como and the mountains beyond. Request 'superior lake view' if your booking allows — the standard rooms may only get a partial side view.

😴

Quietest floors

Floors 3 and 4 are reliably quiet. The building has a lift, so upper floors are easy to reach and sit above the street-level bustle. Floor 2 is acceptable but may catch some early-morning traffic hum.

🔊 Noise notes

The hotel sits on the main lakeside road, Via Regina. Expect traffic noise (scooters, buses) from 7am-9am and 5pm-7pm. Weekend evenings have more footfall from nearby bars. The lift shaft can transmit some low hum to adjacent rooms.

Insider tips

1) If you drive, park in the public garage a 2-minute walk east (Via Bixio) — the hotel has no on-site parking and street spaces are scarce. 2) Check-in after 3pm to guarantee a lake view room; morning arrivals often get stuck with a side or back room.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
  3. Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

🏦
Where to exchange

Use bank ATMs for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaux at Como San Giovanni station and tourist spots near the lake—they mark up heavily.

💳
Cards & contactless

Visa/Mastercard accepted almost everywhere, including bars and cafés; contactless and Apple Pay/Google Pay are common for small amounts too.

🪙
Tipping etiquette

Not expected—round up the bill or leave 5–10% in nicer restaurants only if service is good; taxis and hotel staff don't expect tips, but a euro or two for porters is fine.

Comer, Comprar e Viajar em um Orçamento

Cheap car hire →
Cheap coffee

Espresso at a local bar: €1–1.20, usually cheaper standing at the counter than sitting down.

🥪

🍝
Affordable dinner

Pasta or pizza in a trattoria away from the lakefront: €10–15 for a main.

🌮
Street food & cheap eats

Head to Via Borgo Vico or the area near the market in Piazza della Vittoria for cheap takeaway pizza, focaccia, and piadina stalls.

🛒
Budget groceries

Supermarkets: Carrefour Express, Conad, and Penny Market (budget option).

👕
Affordable clothes

Via Varesina has a few discount clothing stores; for genuine budget shopping, the Sunday market at Piazza Cacciatori delle Alpi has clothes stalls.

🎫
Cheapest way around

Buy the €1.70 urban bus ticket (valid 90 minutes) for the C line that loops the city; from Milan Malpensa airport, take the Malpensa Express to Como Camerlata (about €10 one-way), not the direct coach.

💡
Money-saving tips

Avoid drinks at lakefront bars—walk one street back and prices halve. Buy regional train tickets from machines (no booking fee) and validate before boarding. Pack a reusable bottle: Como's public fountains (fontanelle) offer free, safe drinking water.

Principais atrações em Como

Broletto Free

💡 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.

Broletto (Old Town Hall) Free

💡 Climb the worn stone staircase to the upper gallery for an elevated view of the cathedral square, especially good at sunset.

Lake Como Promenade Free

💡 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.

Basilica di San Fedele Free

💡 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.

Basilica of San Fedele Free

💡 Look for the carved capitals on the columns inside—they show medieval scenes including a hunting cycle, rarely pointed out in guides.

Piazza Cavour Free

💡 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.

Basilica of San Fedele Free

💡 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.

Porta Torre & City Walls Free

💡 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.
