财产 — San Silvestro
San Silvestro is a straightforward, family-run 3-star hotel on a quiet street just off Como’s lakefront. The lobby is modest but welcoming, with tiled floors, a small reception desk and the faint smell of fresh coffee from the breakfast room. Its USP is quiet proximity to the ferries and old town without the lakeside price tag. Best for independent travellers and couples who want a clean, no-fuss base rather than boutique character.
Como编年史
Como began as a Roman settlement, Comum, and later grew into a medieval lake-trading hub beneath Milan’s rule. Its cathedral, begun in 1396, blends Gothic and Renaissance styles and took nearly four centuries to finish. In the 19th century, Como became a silk-manufacturing powerhouse, and its elegant lakefront villas attracted European aristocracy. Today the city balances a working Italian town with tourist traffic, the silk legacy still visible in local shops and the Volta Temple museum dedicated to the electric battery’s inventor, Alessandro Volta, who was born here.
参观的最佳时间
Como完整指南 →最佳月
May, June and September: warm but not punishing, lake breeze keeps it comfortable, crowds are manageable before the July–August peak.
峰会 / 节日 Surge
July and especially August are the busiest; Italian Ferragosto (15 August) draws day-trippers, ferry queues lengthen and hotel prices can double. The weather is hot and humid, perfect for swimming but not sightseeing.
预算肩部季节
April and October offer 20–40% lower rates, lighter crowds, crisp air and quieter lakeside walks. Some lakeside eateries close mid-October, but the old town stays open.
天气 & 包装
Como gets sudden thunderclap showers even in July, often after a calm morning. Pack a light waterproof jacket or compact umbrella even if the forecast says clear.
城市简介 — Como
- The funicular to Brunate is running normally but buy tickets at the station kiosk to avoid queues; contactless payment now works on board.
- The Cathedral’s main façade is under scaffold for marble cleaning until late 2026 – expect netting on the central portal.
- Como’s new pedestrian zone on Via Plinio (just south of the hotel) is now permanent; taxis drop off at the edge, so factor a short walk with luggage.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to San Silvestro, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 3rd or 4th floor, facing the internal courtyard away from the street. These upper floors tend to be quieter and catch afternoon light over the roofs.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms, especially those overlooking the main road or next to the lift – street noise from Como’s traffic and early morning service sounds are common issues here.
Best views
The best view from a 3-star position in Como is likely a side glance over the rooftops or a partial view of the lake from a top-floor front room – but don’t expect a full panorama without paying extra. Ask specifically for a 'lake-view' room if you want any water visible.
Quietest floors
Floors 3–4
🔊 Noise notes
Como’s streets are narrow and traffic filters through from early morning (7am) until late evening. The hotel’s central address puts you near pedestrian areas but also means delivery lorries, scooters, and bar crowds. Ask for a room at the rear or side to reduce street noise.
Insider tips
Arrive before 3pm to check in early – the hotel often holds rooms, but late arrivals risk a ground-floor allocation. If you’re driving, book parking in advance (there’s a small private lot or use the public garage 200m away). Also worth requesting a kettle for the room – not standard in 3-star properties but often available on request.
- 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 (Bancomat) for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaux at Como San Giovanni station and tourist spots, as they take a hefty commission.
Cards are widely accepted in shops and restaurants, but smaller bars and market stalls often prefer cash for under €10; contactless works almost everywhere.
Tipping is not expected but appreciated; round up the bill in restaurants (€1-2 for a coffee, 5-10% for a meal if service was good), spare change for hotel staff.
吃,购物和旅行在一个预算
Cheap car hire →A standing espresso at a bar is about €1.20-1.50; if you sit down at a table near the lake, expect €3.50-5.
Pizza al taglio (by the slice) or a panino from a forno costs around €5-7 with a drink.
A basic pasta or pizza main in a straightforward trattoria runs €10-14.
Head to the covered market area around Via Perti or the old town backstreets for takeaway pizza slices, focaccia, and arancini stalls.
Conad, Coop and Lidl are common; Lidl is cheapest for basics, Conad for a decent selection without markup.
The high street on Via Vittorio Emanuele has H&M, Zara and OVS for affordable basics; avoid the designer shops near Piazza Cavour.
A single bus ticket in Como city is €1.30 from tabacchi; the cheapest way from Milan Malpensa airport is the Malpensa Express train to Como Lago station (€13.50), not the direct coach which costs more.
Buy a Como City Card for free museum entry and discounts on ferries if staying more than a day; fill a water bottle at the free public fountains (fontanelle) around town — tap water is excellent; eat set lunch menus (menu del giorno) in trattorias, usually €12-15 for two courses.

🧭 First things nearby: cash · Nearest — 646 m · ~8 min walk — pharmacy · Farmacia Piazza — 443 m · ~6 min walk
🚐 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.
