Beautiful little hotel in the stunning Lake Como! Breakfasts were brilliant - what a view. The ferry left from right outside and it was walkable to a couple of nice restaurants. We had the family room for four which was perfectly adequate for us. Would highly recommend this hotel. I would stay again if I’m ever lucky enough to be back in lake Como!

Thanks for a lovely stay

Our family of five, including two teenagers, had a truly pleasant stay at the family-run Orso Bruno. Finding accommodation for us in a single room can be a challenge, but Orso Bruno offered a fantastic family room that comfortably fit everyone. The convenient Bus-Boat stop right outside the hotel made exploring Como town and the surrounding lakeside villages a breeze. We also enjoyed the breakfast and dinner, and the staff were exceptionally helpful and welcoming throughout our stay. We will absolutely be returning! 10/10

The highlight of our trip was the room: spacious, clean, and cozy, with beautiful views of Lake Como. I highly recommend the room with a terrace, which for us was an unmatched experience; we felt like never leaving! Dinner at the hotel’s restaurant was also delicious (highly recommend the lasagna) and served in a cozy space with views of the lake. Plus, the location is perfect, right next to the ferry station, with boats available to Como and Bellagio, as well as a number of buses. I couldn't have asked for a better stay. Highly recommended!

Beat staff ever!

I normally don’t take the time to write a review but the staff at this hotel were so good that I needed to make sure I wrote a review to tell people about it. The staff went above and beyond to try to help with our accommodations. He was so nice! He made our trip be extraordinary. From helping us get a cab to tieing a tie, he did everything he could to help us and make our stay pleasant. Highly recommend.

Det var bra att vi inte visste innan vi bokade boendet hur långt bort Orso Bruno var från Como. Det fina var att området var väldigt lungt men att det fanns en "hamn" station mitt emot hotellet. Våran familj gjorde dagsutflykter och kom tillbaka till lugnet och njöt utav det. Läget vid vattnet gör verkligen ett lyft för hotellet som i sig inte är något märkvärdigt. De få middags alternativen i omnejd är hotellet resturang, resturangen i porten brevid (som är stängd torsdagar) samt 10 min bort finns det alternativ med lättare tilltugg... Så det finns en del att önska vid utbud och något man bör ha i åtanke till innan man bosätter sig i Orzo men för oss som endast stannade i 3 nätter var det bra! Rummet 303 var rymligt för en tvåbarnsfamilj men vi hade hemskt mycket insekter på vårat rum. ACen var livsviktig. Det var enkla inredda rum som var lyhörda från hiss och andra boendens rum på samma våning. Liten hiss. Det enda värt att klaga över var den översvämda duschen. Vi tog alla snabba duschar och det var nästan vatten ut i hallen pga dåligt flöde i duschgolvet.

Hôtel bien situé , confortable, bon petit déjeuner .Un seul petit bémol : l ´hotel a retiré le prix de la chambre ainsi que le prix du parking, qu on avait rajouté un peu plus tard ,sans nous prévenir ,5 jours avant notre arrivée .Donc on a eu un retrait qui ne correspondait pas au montant initial ( le parking ayant été rajouté ) et nous avons dû appeler la banque en France pour savoir qui avait fait ce retrait . Un e-mail lors du retrait par l hôtel pour nous prévenir aurait été plus correct je pense …
