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.

We enjoyed the stay, hotel is clean, well located, and opposite a very good restaurant in Acqua Dolce. Ferry terminal is at the door step, and the area is quiet, relaxed and wonderful. Rooms are smallish, as with most in Europe, but value fir money here is excellent, as was the hotel service

Good location, kind helpful staff, and a big comfy bed with a view. Can't ask for much more. The pizza at the restaurant is some of the best we had while in Italy. The included reakfast is delicious as well. No fridge or safe in the room but WiFi and air conditioning work very well. Would definitely stay here again

Picturesque and Romantic Lake Como Escape!
We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Orso Bruno. The staff was friendly and very helpful. We had a room with a lake view and balcony, and the views of Lake Como were breathtaking. The ferry stops 3 times a day right in front of the hotel, and we had a memorable day traveling to Bellagio and back. Also, the C20 bus stops right in front of the hotel. The day we arrived, we mistakenly took the C10 bus from Como to the Carate-Urio stop, but it dropped us off higher up the mountain. Thankfully, we met a kind woman named Marta who showed us the way down the cobblestone path into Urio. It was tough with two suitcases, but we struck up a conversation with Marta, and ended befriending her and meeting up with her the next day! The breakfast was fantastic (we still talk about it!) and our stay was just wonderful in every way. Keep in mind that Urio is a very small, quiet town north of Como, and there is not a lot of activity there. Which was just fine for us. If you want a quiet, romantic escape on Lake Como, this is the place!

Great view and pizza!
This is a gem of a hotel. Simple but effective and an incredible view. The ferry is also right outside for a hop on / hop off adventure. The pizza/risotto in the restaurant is fantastic and the breakfast is traditional with cheese and meats, fresh fruit and pastries. Parking is very easy as the hotel has reserved spaces. The roads are fun, a tad narrow but add to the whole experience. The friendly staff booked us a boat hire in the next village along and were happy to advise on ferry times and places to eat. Overall a great stay. :) The wine bar down stairs is also superb!!
