Balerna Vacation Rentals

"This was our first vacation in a long time because my wife has a brain tumor and can't fly, but we finally took the time to go to Lake Como because it was a place she always wanted to visit. It starts off with us booking a handicap room by accident, and to DOWNGRADE to a cheaper room, reception asked for 150 euroes. We politely declined after a long battle over why we are paying for a downgraded room and went to our room. Inside this room, the A/C is dripping loudly, and the Concierge told us this is a known issue with this room, so we then asked the reception for a different room. In this different room, there is a loud clicking noise since we enter the room every 5-10 seconds. I again call the reception and ask for a different room because now it is just a joke. They send concierge to "check" the problem, he walks in for 10sec and walk around and say he will get us a new room. The next room we are put in (still handicapped room despite us visiting a normal room that had no issues whatsoever) where the concierge visited prior to us to confirm this room is okay so we don't move a 4th time, and surprising to no one this room has the same clicking noise.

"Breakfast menu was great and views were incredible. Room was clean only thing would be if the en suite was bigger but other than that thoroughly enjoyed the stay!"

"This hotel is really nice but it is located outside Milan and it cost €100 to Uber. But the train stationnis nearby,so if you can learn to navigate the train system, which is really easy,then you'll be good."

"Everything was fine, room comfortable. Excellent shower! Breakfast (buffet) was somehow included and it was plentiful. Requested a decaf cappuccino and they got me one. They also remembered my request the following day! Drinks at the bar were good but a bit expensive (in CAD$)"

"The location, the staff, the amenities, the food, everything was amazing."

"The hotel is very old but nicely updated. They offer a free shuttle to the airport. The rooms are a nice size and bathrooms are spacious. Not too many amenities but you don’t need them if you are just spending the night before flying out. We walked to the bakery, pub and gelato (which is right down the alley). We also had a very good dinner in the hotel restaurant. The check in clerk was super nice and very helpful."

"Breakfast was excellent and a good variety "

"Outstanding experience. Rooms, Location and terrace are really special. Highly recommended!"

"The room was lovely, and the view from the balcony over the lake was wonderful to wake up to each morning! Breakfast was delicious- loads of choice and all the food was very tasty. Staff were always very professional and friendly. We will definitely be coming back again."
