What guests think
At Alessia's Place in Como, guests consistently praise the central, walkable location near the lake, ferries, and train stations, the charming, spacious apartments, and the exceptionally kind, responsive hosts who provide helpful recommendations and smooth, communicative check-ins.
Rooms are widely described as very clean and comfortable, with quiet interiors and tasteful decor. Some note drawbacks such as limited on-site staffing, strict check-in/out windows, inconsistent luggage storage, occasional noise or light from outside, and minor amenity gaps like soft mattresses or missing in-room items. Overall, expect a stylish, well-maintained base with more independence than a full-service hotel.

Firstly, communication was fantastic! WhatsApp was perfect for us in arranging meet up times. The apartment (bedroom w/cot for 3 adults, good size bathroom & shower and mini kitchen with table & chairs) was good size for us. He gave us quite a few recommendations for restaurants (though, this time of year not a whole lot of places with normal hours). He let us extend our check out since our train was at 1pm. The location was great, walkable to everywhere-train, docks, funicular, restaurants. There is a lift and it’s a quiet, nice building. We would definitely recommend this location!

The king size bed was incredibly comfortable! The apartment was very, very clean. So impressed! The apartment is also VERY quiet and has a lovely little veranda with two chairs and a table to enjoy the sun and fresh air. Very convenient to Lake Como. Approximately 5-10 minute walk to the lake. Lots of good restaurants within walking distance. Head down side streets for even more options. Plenty of gelato stores available too! 😊 The property manager provided excellent communication and very useful recommendations that made our stay wonderful and avoided wasting of time. We highly recommend staying at Alessias Place!

The room is quite pretty, with a modern bathroom, and a great location - minutes from the train station and a 1-minute walk to the main square. However, it lacks some amenities. There was a coffee machine, but no mini-fridge, no safe, and a bundle of heavy keys you had to carry with you, as it took multiple keys to get you in. There is no real staff, but someone that checked us in and then left. She pointed at the air conditioner and the wall module, but then failed to tell us where to find the remote to turn it on, which we didn't find until it was time to check out as it was in a drawer! One of the biggest drawbacks is that the window faced an alley that had extremely bright lights on overnight. We closed the shutters, but they were painted slightly open and basically the room was at the level of daylight all night long! Also, they refused to allow us to leave our bags, as most places do when you have an afternoon departure. When we pushed back, we agreed to be back by a certain time. 20 minutes ahead of time, we arrived back to find our luggage had been removed from the room by a different person! Turns out, he was the manager, and was watching the bags for us, as someone else had already checked in. He did ask us for honest feedback, and we gave him the above, and he was extremely nice, and didn't try to defend, and just said he hoped he would have the opportunity to do better. Before you book here, check to see if they've corrected the night shutters!

We had a great experience with the hostess meeting us to show up the place. She was very friendly and helpful with all her suggestions. The apartment is in the heart of everything. Restaurants and bars all around. The train is a 10 minute walk and the lake is 2 minutes away. Ferries and busses to take you wherever you need to go. The place is very spacious and comfortable with a nice area outside to relax. The bathroom is very big and the bed is comfortable. I give it a 10 for cleanliness, location and hostess.

Alessia's place was absoutely fantastic. The apartment itself was stunning, with gorgeous furniture and a huge, beautiful bathroom. It also had A/C which was a bonus on the hot days. The location was perfect in the old town - steps away from a piazza full of restaurants, and only a couple of minutes walk from the lake. The staff could not have been more helpful - they gave us loads of information and tips, which improved our holiday immensely. If I ever go back to Como (which is likely!) than I will only consider staying here. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

Easy checkin, good communication to collect the keys and allowed us to leave our luggage on check out which was great as we had a late train. Well appointed, large apartment with lift. Great location, close to Como S Giovanni train station and easy access of the lake, restaurants and bars. Highly recommend and would definitely use again on my next trip to Como.

We found our hostess (her name begins with a \'Y" but we can\'t remember ;) was extremely helpful! She was passionate about the area, gave us great tips, and made sure we had what we needed. The property was very clean, updated, comfortable, and had a \'romantic\' feel - and we appreciated having a small kitchen space. There were very nice touches, such as tea bags made available to us. The property is convenient to everything! We arrived by train and walked everywhere in Como from here. We highly recommend this charming place and would definitely stay again!

The place was beautiful, the bed so comfy and the kitchenette was perfect as well. It’s located in a very convenient place, right near the ferries to the other towns, quiet at night, and in the main part of Como. Francesco was extremely helpful and accessible! I would recommend this place to anyone and would go back as well.

En goede ligging en een mooie kamer. Maar in de badkamer was er schimmel op de douchekop dit is onaanvaardbaar voor een prijs van 200/nacht. Ook is de kamer alles behalve geluidsdicht. Je hoort alles van de andere bewoners. We gaan niet meer terug.

Property was walking distance from train station and close to the very social Piazza Volta, but the flat was still relatively quiet. Host was amazing, had great recommendations and sent links to everything! Flat was clean and bathroom was good sized, but shower was small as are most European showers. Would definitely stay here again!

Sentralt beliggende og enkelt å finne. Leilighet var ren og fin standard. Det var meget lytt mellom etasjene så får du litt bråkete naboer vil det være plagsomt. Lite varmt vann i dusj/bad. Ikke kaldt, men langt fra varmt. Ellers alt topp.

Great location within 10 mins walk from the Como main station, and short walk to piazza and pier. Staff is friendly and helpful. The only down side is restricted flexibility due to lack of on-site staff. Early checkout by 10am and Checkin before 7pm. Also cannot hold luggage for the day given staff limited availability. Great place to stay otherwise

The room is quite pretty, with a modern bathroom, and a great location - minutes from the train station and a 1-minute walk to the main square. However, it lacks some amenities. There was a coffee machine, but no mini-fridge, no safe, and a bundle of heavy keys you had to carry with you, as it took multiple keys to get you in. There is no real staff, but someone that checked us in and then left. She pointed at the air conditioner and the wall module, but then failed to tell us where to find the remote to turn it on, which we didn't find until it was time to check out as it was in a drawer! One of the biggest drawbacks is that the window faced an alley that had extremely bright lights on overnight. We closed the shutters, but they were painted slightly open and basically the room was at the level of daylight all night long! Also, they refused to allow us to leave our bags, as most places do when you have an afternoon departure. When we pushed back, we agreed to be back by a certain time. 20 minutes ahead of time, we arrived back to find our luggage had been removed from the room by a different person! Turns out, he was the manager, and was watching the bags for us, as someone else had already checked in. He did ask us for honest feedback, and we gave him the above, and he was extremely nice, and didn't try to defend, and just said he hoped he would have the opportunity to do better. Before you book here, check to see if they've corrected the night shutters!

From coordinating our arrival at the property a week in advance and meeting us upon arrival was a nice touch and change from the usual lockbox check-in experience. Yaiza was punctual, friendly, and ready to share the local secret spots for dinner and experience lake Como. Very pleasant, just don't get your keys mixed up.

We had a great experience with the hostess meeting us to show up the place. She was very friendly and helpful with all her suggestions. The apartment is in the heart of everything. Restaurants and bars all around. The train is a 10 minute walk and the lake is 2 minutes away. Ferries and busses to take you wherever you need to go. The place is very spacious and comfortable with a nice area outside to relax. The bathroom is very big and the bed is comfortable. I give it a 10 for cleanliness, location and hostess.

Easy checkin, good communication to collect the keys and allowed us to leave our luggage on check out which was great as we had a late train. Well appointed, large apartment with lift. Great location, close to Como S Giovanni train station and easy access of the lake, restaurants and bars. Highly recommend and would definitely use again on my next trip to Como.

Great stay! Very good communication with the property. The room was bright and clean with comfortable bed. Excellent location with all the attractions/restaurants within short walking distance. Yaiza was very hospitable and accommodating to our needs. She is an asset to Alessia’s Place. We will recommend to friends and family.

The room was clean and charming. Yaiza, who coordinated check-in, was fantastic — she was responsive and had excellent recommendations for food and things to do. Good location close to the lake and only 5-10 mins walk from San Giovanni train station (depending on how fast you walk). No view from Suite 8 to speak of but I wasn’t hanging out in my room much, other than to sleep. I would stay here again!

Excellent central location near the lake, ferries, restaurants, shops, and about 5–10 minutes’ walk from train stations; several guests also felt safe. Many note it is quiet despite being in the heart of Como.

Very large three person room. Outstanding location in the city center. Easy to walk to both train stations. Outstanding restaurant and bar options nearby and right by the lake. Yaiza Is an amazing hostess with perfect food, bar and travel recommendations. We loved Bar Hemingway (amazing bar and apps) and pizza at Donnarumma. Highly recommend Alessia’s Place!!

Alessia's place was absoutely fantastic. The apartment itself was stunning, with gorgeous furniture and a huge, beautiful bathroom. It also had A/C which was a bonus on the hot days. The location was perfect in the old town - steps away from a piazza full of restaurants, and only a couple of minutes walk from the lake. The staff could not have been more helpful - they gave us loads of information and tips, which improved our holiday immensely. If I ever go back to Como (which is likely!) than I will only consider staying here. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

Property was walking distance from train station and close to the very social Piazza Volta, but the flat was still relatively quiet. Host was amazing, had great recommendations and sent links to everything! Flat was clean and bathroom was good sized, but shower was small as are most European showers. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful room, thoughtfully designed. The little outside space was lovely to sit and have a glass of wine. Great location just a few minutes from the station and steps away from loads of restaurants and cafes and the lake. Highly recommended.

The apartment is located at the back of the property, away from the street. To reach it, you first need the owner’s assistance to enter through one locked gate, then walk along a long corridor to a second locked gate. As a result, the apartment is somewhat tucked away from the street. There is no reception or service desk on-site, so you need to inform the owner of your arrival time to ensure that someone is available to let you into the complex. I was initially in contact with the owner, but Roberta handled our arrival. She was extremely helpful and explained everything very clearly, which made the check-in process easy. The room itself was fine—nothing fancy, but clean and well maintained. The fridge is very small, so there is limited space for storing food or drinks. The location was good, with easy access to the city centre and the boats, making it convenient for getting around and exploring the area.

Beautiful and clean room. Excellent location. Comfy bed. Would highly recommend. Only downside was a loud group waking us up at 2am on the Saturday night - but still 5* rating from us (obviously out of the hosts control). If you stay, remember to bring some shower gel as the samples provided will only last you a day.
