财产 — Hotel Merloni
Hotel Merloni is a clean, no-fuss 3-star just off Como's lakefront, with a modest lobby of cream tiles and a lacquered reception desk. It suits independent travellers who want a reliable base for exploring the town and lake, offering solid breakfasts and a small rooftop terrace with partial lake views. The vibe is functional but friendly, more practical than polished.
Como编年史
Como has Roman origins as *Novum Comum*, founded by Julius Caesar in 59 BC, and later became a key fortified town under the Visconti dukes. The cathedral, begun in 1396, blends Gothic and Renaissance styles and dominates the square. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, Como was a centre for silk manufacturing, a legacy visible in the *Museo della Seta*. Today, it remains a compact, historic city balancing tourism with local life, known for its lakefront promenade and funicular to Brunate.
参观的最佳时间
Como完整指南 →最佳月
May to June and September: warm, sunny days (20-25°C), lower humidity, and fewer crowds than July/August. Lake swimming is pleasant by late May.
峰会 / 节日 Surge
July-August is peak season; July 2026 matches summer holidays and the *Palio del Baradello* historical festival (late July). Hotel prices double or more from shoulder rates, with 3-stars like Merloni often full. Advance booking essential.
预算肩部季节
April and October are best budget months: April can still be cool (10-16°C) but with spring flowers and fewer tourists; October offers mild days and lower rates (30-50% off peak). Many lakeside cafes stay open until late October.
天气 & 包装
Como can have sudden afternoon thunderstorms even in summer, especially July. Pack a light rain jacket or umbrella and layers: a sweater for cool lake breezes and evenings.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Hotel Merloni, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 3rd floor facing the inner courtyard. These rooms are quieter and further from street and reception noise.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the 1st floor facing the street — direct noise from Como’s narrow lanes and delivery vehicles. Also avoid rooms near the lift shaft on any floor.
Best views
Side rooms overlooking the adjacent piazza offer classic Como rooftops and glimpses of the lake. Not guaranteed but worth asking.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 and 4 are quietest, above street level and away from ground-floor bustle.
🔊 Noise notes
Como's narrow streets funnel moped and foot traffic. Weekend evenings can be loud from nearby bars and restaurant terraces.
Insider tips
Ask reception for a room with a window that opens (some are sealed) for fresh air. If arriving by car, the hotel has no parking — use the public garage 200m away at Via Borgo Vico and pre-book online.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

货币与货币
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use bank ATMs for the best exchange rates; avoid exchange bureaux at Como S. Giovanni station or tourist spots as they charge poor rates and high fees.
Cards accepted almost everywhere in central Como, including contactless and mobile pay; keep some cash for small shops, market stalls, and lake ferry tickets.
Not expected, but rounding up the bill or leaving a euro or two for good service at cafes/restaurants is appreciated; taxi drivers don't expect a tip.
吃,购物和旅行在一个预算
Cheap car hire →Standing at a cafe bar for an espresso or cappuccino costs around €1.00–€1.20; sitting down adds €2–3.
Pizza al taglio (pizza by the slice) or a panino from a takeaway shop – roughly €5–8 for a filling meal.
A basic pasta or pizza main in a trattoria without frills – around €10–14.
Look for bakeries and kebab shops along Via Garibaldi and around Piazza Cavour for quick, cheap bites under €8.
Discount supermarkets like Lidl and Penny, plus coop/Conad for a wider selection; all within walking distance in central Como.
Via Vittorio Emanuele II and the pedestrian streets near the Duomo have mid-range high-street shops like Zara, H&M, and local boutiques; market stalls (Saturdays) offer discounted basics.
A single city bus ticket is €1.40 (valid 70 min), but walking is easiest; from Milan, take the regional train (€4.80 one-way) – avoid the airport express alternatives.
Eat where locals queue for takeaway pizza/pasta, not at lakefront restaurants. Buy a tap water bottle (free public fountains, 'fontanelle', around town). Skip the funicular to Brunate and hike up the military path for free views.

Where to Eat
💡 Booking tip: For popular restaurants in Como, book at least a week ahead — especially for weekend evenings and during festival season.
Your arrival at Hotel Merloni
🕒 Check-in is from . Arriving earlier? Most hotels store luggage free — just ask at reception.
🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →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.

Como热门景点
💡 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.
