This review is for the restaurant Veranda as we did not stay in the Villa d'Este hotel…read more We came here for dinner on Friday night along with two other couples. Upon arrival we were told that the men needed to be wearing jackets. I wish that our hotel had told us because my husband had packed one, but luckily the restaurant keeps spare jackets on site for just this situation. The large dining room is incredibly old school with beautiful brass dining chairs laden in blue and yellow striped fabric. When they brought out the wine list I thought it was a joke because it was the size of a dictionary! For dinner I had the beet tartare and the veal filet. The soy marinated tofu was a little bit of an odd flavor combined the beet dish but besides that it was quite good. My husband started with the gnocchi and it may have been the best dish of the night, it was dynamite. In my opinion, my veal filet was better than my husbands beef filet and I also really enjoyed the petite eggplant parmigiana that came with it. Soufflé and ice creams for dessert were a big hit, but I was especially pleased because I asked if they had some dark chocolates off menu and they brought me out a beautiful assortment that tasted as good as they looked. Great restaurant if you are looking for an elegant evening out on the town or an excuse to use the dinner jacket that you packed but thought you wouldn't need.

My mom and I visited the Palace Hotel in Como in August. We just actually left the hotel! Como is…read moreabsolutely beautiful and the hotel itself from the outside is stunning. The location is perfect. However, everything else is not. The rooms are very dated. Very small! From the time that we arrived we received misinformation, absolutely no help - and left the same way. And was literally left standing in the rain with staff, looking at us as we struggled to bring in our bags in safely. The hotel personnel were actually extremely rude. Food was good - but there are plenty of other wonderful places to eat in Como. If you ask for water, you're lucky to get a bottle. If you ask for help or recommendations, they won't even ask you what you're looking for and just book you somewhere and expect you to go. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. But I do recommended Como!!!

The only good thing about this hotel is the beautiful restaurant and breakfast…read more I'm racking my brain trying to figure out how this is a luxury hotel. Our room was 105 which is one of two rooms on the first floor. It felt like a dungeon, with barely a view of the entrance parking lot. There was not one moment of silence. The staff "hallway/bathroom??" Is located behind a door next to these two rooms and all night you hear footsteps, toilet flushing, door slamming, chatter, and whatever they roll down the hall. You can hear every street noise and the music from the bar/restaurant late into the night. The the thermostat did not turn on at all which we were told was "controlled by Como" and not the hotel but what resulted was fluctuations between hot and cold with no benefit of ambient noise from a fan. Maybe other guests had a better experience because they weren't banned to the dungeon rooms of the first floor. For as much as we paid to stay in this hotel we should have been afforded the opportunity to enjoy it and have a restful night sleep. The worst two nights I have ever experienced in a hotel. If you stay here and they put you in room 104 or 105 I would highly suggest requesting a new room immediately (but good luck that they will accommodate).

The first night we stayed here, they had a private party playing loud music, I called the front…read moredesk to find out how long the music would go on and they assured me the music would stop at 10:00 pm. The music did stop, but what they didn't tell me was, I would have to listen to the chairs and tables being broken down and loaded in trucks right outside my window for another hour and a half. but the absolute kicker was, We sent out a small bag of laundry to be done without asking the price, when we checked out they presented us a bill for 180.00 dollars, hell, I could have bought a used washer and dryer for that amount. I had laundry done in other city's at a cost of 40.00 dollars. never again.

The junior suite screams luxury with the finishes and bedding and the spa is so relaxing. There was no one here for 90% of my 90 minutes and I enjoyed it thoroughly.

Surprised to see mediocre reviews…read more Sheraton is a gorgeous property, well-situated and very comfortable. I loved the spacious room, large comfortable bed and air conditioning that actually worked - the room got nice and cold! Many rooms I've stayed in across Italy are small, HVAC is ineffective and beds are like futons - the Sheraton delivered on all counts, no issues. I spent an afternoon by the pool which was delightful (I did not have a swimsuit, so did not go in the pool.) Lunch at the restaurant by the pool was great - food quality and service were top-notch. Next time I'm in the Como area, the Sheraton has my attention and will likely be where I stay (loved the grocery store nearby too!) 5 stars

The outdoor dining room (it has a manually-pulled awning for shade) is in the middle of nowhere, on a narrow road in the hills above Como; still, lunch was well-attended, mostly by locals. Good, homey place with fresh food served simply , with little regard to the passage of time or cholesterol counts. And Franco is entertainment in himself.
