What guests think

Reviews of Grand Imperiale Resort & Spa highlight stunning lakefront views, a scenic pool with direct lake access, and convenient ferry proximity, while also noting dated areas and extra charges for facilities like the spa and on-site parking.

Many guests praise friendly staff and standout concierge help, but others describe rude or disorganized front-desk interactions and slow issue resolution. Room quality ranges from beautiful, comfortable spaces with lake views to smaller or dated rooms, with reports of thin walls, unreliable climate control, and occasional hot-water problems. Cleanliness feedback varies widely, from spotless stays to troubling reports of pests, stained bedding, and neglected outdoor areas. Overall, expect a picturesque, lake-centered stay with strong views and pool access, but confirm what is included and your room type.

Facilities

The lakeside pool and direct access to the lake are frequent highlights, and several guests liked the spa and bar. However, spa use typically costs extra and can book up, and on-site parking is paid.

Zimmer veraltet und entsprechen nicht dem Preisleistungsverhältnis in der Hochsaison. Klimaanlage schlecht zu regeln. Frühstück ausreichend und in einem wunderschönen Garten. Pool-Anlage direkt am See und sehr entspannend. Leider ist der Zugang zum Baden im See schwierig und nicht für jeden gerignet. Parkplatz mit 24€ am Tag eher teuer.

The hotel pictures are not correct, they aren’t descriptive of the facilities that are accessible to guests. The first 5 pictures show access to a terrace which is actually part of their imperial suite. There is no terrace available to hotel guests. Using the spa facilities is charged at 20€ pp for a steam room, sauna and pool only. This is also only available for 2 hours! The tennis court isn’t usable (I don’t even think it was used for a very long time) and has not been looked after. Same for the outdoor pool. We were not given wifi access until we asked for it the next day. When I commented that this was supposed to be given at check in, the receptionist laughed, and no apology was given! The reception staff is very poorly trained and have a bare understanding of customer service. I found things out as the days went by and not upon check in! There is no tea or kettle in the room and is only upon request. I was charged for a tea for me to bring it to my room, when this should be complimentary. On top of that, the heating in the room is set automatically and cannot be turned off or regulated to a decent temperature. It was at least 28 degrees Celsius in the room, which made a huge difference in temperature compared to the one outside (3-5 degrees). This has now caused me to be sick! I am overall very disappointed with the way this hotel was presented/described when almost all of the amenities advertised were not available or included!

Hôtel très propre, chambre relativement petite, bien situé sans cependant une vue directe sur le lac. Ayant eu des chambres dans différents hôtels de la région, de même catégorie, ou supérieure , je n'ai pu que constater que les tarifs pour le parking et le spa (prestations gratuites dans d'autres établissements) restent chers.

Schöner Aufenthalt. Rezeption war freundlich und respektvoll sowie sehr hilfsbereit. Spa war leider trotz buchung voll. Zimmer war toll, Badezimmer sauber. Reichlich Parkplätze vorhanden, jedoch mit einem grösseren Wagen eher eng und kostet pro Nacht €24! Der Frühstücksbereich war auch super. Gute Auswahl und für jeden etwas dabei. Tolle Anlage und gut gelegen. Wir kommen wieder!

A very nice place, and unfortunately we noticed some negative reviews on the state of this old hotel, but it doesn’t affect the quality of the stay. Italy is old and perhaps not for everyone. Staff is kind and service very good. The spa and swimming pool are great bonuses. The location of the hotel by the lake shore is second to none. This is really good value for money. Adding to that the restaurant and bar are terrific.

For the cost per night the property is dated and the staff is not friendly. Also, this is our 2nd time at the property (which see mentioned during checkin) and it was the fourth time for the couple we were traveling with. There was no acknowledgment or recognition by the staff as return guests. Also, there was a dead rat decomposing on the walkway. Staff were informed and after 3 days the rat was still on the walkway! Neither of the couples will be returning to this property.

The hotel was disappointing for the price. The staff was rude and made no apologies when things would go wrong (AC didn’t work first night, key cards stopped working mid stay, etc). We moved to the Hilton in Como for the final 2 nights of the stay and it was much nicer and more enjoyable.

I think the bad reviews don't really do the place justice. As for my own experience in late March '24 having booked an executive room during easter I have the following observations on the good side and what could be improved. First the good: - Very comfy, large bed in a large room. Way better than expected and I'd say arguably 5-star level bed. You will sleep well here. - Beautiful view - Quiet area around the hotel - Decent breakfast - Very convenient parking + charging for EV if needed - Friendly staff What could be better: - Noise insulation from within the hotel is poor. You easily hear the neighboring guests. Wasn't a big issue, but it depends on the guests and it can be loud during the day. - Larger TV with chromecast would be nice

Great location and general access to lake Como. Clean and safe space. However, we booked a "deluxe lake view", and upon arrival we were given a room that was clearly neither "deluxe" nor "lake view". When we raised the issue with hotel staff, they said this is the only room they got and fits the reservation description. After spending 90mins on a call with Expedia, trying to resolve the issue, hotel insisted on their PoV, until the morning after, when the manager came over and acknowledged the mix up and tried to make up for the chaos. While I appreciate their efforts to address the issue, the way they treated their guests upon arrival and for few hrs was not acceptable.

This is set in a stunning part of the world and is a beautifully appointed hotel with gorgeous gardens. You have bistro, silver service and room service dining options. There is little else in Moltrasio, though. Those that like a little more in terms of shopping and bustle may prefer one of the other spots like Argegno or Cernobbio
