Very good overall but as usual in Italian hotels I struggled to set the shower temperature and tiny box.

The owners of the hotel were extremely nice and accommodating to my daughter who was having trouble walking due to a bug bite that had swollen up her whole leg. The restaurant had delicious and fresh food, and the cook was also so kind.

It was the second time I have stayed at this hotel. I loved it seven years ago and it was equally good this time round. Locanda Milano 1872 is a three star family run in perched high on the hillside above Brunate. The family that run it are extremely friendly and the food is good and the bar buzzing with locals every night. The accommodation is simple but comfortable and the breakfast very good with fresh fruit, breads, meats and cheese and excellent coffee. If you are looking for somewhere flash or ultra comfortable, you would probably be better off in one of the lakeside 5 star establishments. However for me, the charms of Brunate and the welcome at this stunning little inn are more than any 5 star lakeside hotel can offer. I like to drive up the winding road to Brunate and then leave the car at the hotel and travel to Como by funicular and use the ferries to get around the lake.

5.0 / 10.0
An excellent stay! The service was top notch. The restaurant was very good too - with a very good wine list (I recommend the San Felice). There is parking which is quite handy, and the drive up is definitely an adventure. A very short walk to the funicular and some great views of Como. The building itself is old, there is no getting around that - but the room was absolutely spotless. Their cleaner deserves a raise. Seems to be a local haunt and the bar downstairs can get quite lively - will definitely stay here again

Nice, family run hotel and restaurant. Fantastic breakfast that offers something for everyone. Staying in Brunate was very relaxing and puts you close by to an area for trekking above Lake Como. Would stay there again or recommend it to others.

コモはとても美しい街です。安全で清潔でお洒落で、とても良い場所でした。このホテルはコモの街の外れからケーブルカーに乗った頂上にあります。ケーブルカーは15~30分ごとに1本しかないので、わりと不便です。
このホテルからはコモ湖が見渡せることを期待したのですが、残念ながらホテルのレストランバーや私の客室からはコモ湖は見えませんでした。というか眺望があまりなかったです。
部屋は狭くて、荷物を広げる場所がないのが困りましたが、清潔だし、一泊するだけなら問題ありませんでした。

The setting is great as you are up on the mountain top and the staff were friendly and largely helpful.
I would not recommend staying on the family rooms, except in the winter as the hot water pipes for the kitchen/hotel run right in the floor. It wouldn't be bad in the winter to keep you warm, but on the 80-90 degree days we had it was unbearably hot. The room came with a small fan, but I had to keep putting cold towels on me during the night. I asked if they could turn off the heat, but they explained about the pipes and offered a second larger fan. I took that but it was still sweltering in there. The room only had one window and it was at street level and there was no air flow. I really wanted to like this place but additionally, the shower head leaked and sprayed water all over the bathroom which I remedied by wrapping a bidet towel around the shower head. While my wife's mattress was good, mine and both the two for our kids on the wobbly bunk beds, had more than exceeded their lifespan and were lumpy or thin. Also as a note to those staying on the hill, the fenicular while close by is not necessarily a cheap endeavor - plan for one trip up and down to cost around 14 euro.

Very basic room, but clean and good enough for one night. From Brunate you have a beautiful view over Como, and the funicular is just a 3 mins walk away from the hotel, so it's very convenient. Breakfast was good. If you have a small car, you can park right in front of the hotel, you just have to leave your keys, as they have to move around the cars since the space is not very big.

The original hotel we were going to stay at was unacceptable, so we went to Hotels.com and booked this one, thinking it was close to Lake Como, and close to the city center within walking distance of restaurants and sights. When we began to make a steep climb up a mountain, we thought that our gps was on the blink. Once we got to the hotel and realized it was truly the one we booked, we were not less than delighted at the wonderful surprises that this hotel offered. Not only were the proprietor and staff wonderful, this boutique hotel was literally close to the top of the mountain, overlooking Lake Como. The view was wonderful and after we checked in, we took a walk even further up the mountain. It was stunning. We had a drink in the bar with the locals, and ate in the restaurant, which was wonderful. Breakfast was included the next day, and it offered a wide variety of items. Would definitely recommend to anyone going to that area.

With a need to stay near the Swiss boarder and Como on business I had a quick search for a functional hotel. I had no idea the hotel was perched three quarters of the way up a mountain, overlooking Como, but was smiling all the way to the hotel. The location is very accessible to Como and absolutely idyllic. The hotel is a small privately run affair with a busy bar. My room was clean, comfortable and had doors opening on to a small veranda. The staff were very friendly and excused my poor Italian. Breakfast was excellent. I would certainly stay there again and would have to hesitation recommending the hotel at €50 a night.

If you've got a carryon and some funicular money this is great little way to spice up your vaction...spend a couple of nights and unwind against the best view of Milianese smog you'll ever see. Old fashioned...no AC, loud old men in the parlor drinking all evening. I call those "pluses" but don't try this for a stopover. --And, by all means, don't drive!! Unless you're really comfortable with unmarked streets, hairpin turns on 20deg climbs and motos up your butt all the way up!

WE ENJOYED THE STAFF. THEY WERE VERY HELPFUL. THE ROOM WAS BADLY IN NEED OF A PAINT JOB (VERY TIRED FOR THIS PRICE) AND THE HALL CARPETS ARE CURLING UP AND ARE A HAZARD WHEN LEAVING THE ROOM. BUT OVERALL, OUR STAY WAS VERY PLEASANT. WE ALSO LIKED BEING UP ON THE MOUNTAIN, AWAY FROM ALL THE NOISE AND BUSINESS OF COMO. IT WAS SO EASY TO JUST TAKE THE FUNICULAR UP AND DOWN FOR DINNERS OUT OR CONNECTIONS TO THE FERRIES.

TV missing the remote control, took the staffs 2 days to get replacement. One plug beside the bed not working. Location is not closed to Metro. The heater in the room is too hot. Good breakfast! Room and bathroom is big, price is good!

Nice little family-run hotel in the village of Brunate. You can get to the village by furniculare from Como city ( runs untill 22.30 at night)- so need for car if youre planning a stay.

The Hotel staff are very helpful and friendly. All in all we had a great time. The main problem with the hotel is that its on top of a mountain overlooking Como. This means if you dont want a precarious drive ,it is only access able via a mountain lift service at 5 euros each return per person ( this gets very expensive over a weeks stay) The rooms are small with no air con. Staff are brilliant friendly and very helpful.

This hotel is located up the hill from Como. It is a steep drive up, but once you get there you can just leave your car because the hotel is so close to the fanicular that goes down the hill into town. The view from up the hill is just spectacular. You can see down into Lake Como and the white cap mountains in the distance. Room was small but clean. Staff was nice.
2.5 / 10.0
As long as you dont mind either the windy drive up or taking the funicular up the hill, this hotel is perfect. We stayed in the summer and it not only was it cooler up there on the hill but there were hardly any bugs compared to being swarmed down in Como. Massimo, the manager, went out of his way to make us feel comfortable and was there whenever we had a question. Located less than a 5 min walk to the funicular, it was perfectly situated in quiet Brunate. Both my wife and I thought it was much better to stay there than in Como.

The staff where pleasant and the area was nice. Parking was available but cars needed to be moved around in order to get your car our. concidering your on a mountain, this is to be expected. Our room was the smallest in the hotel and was not that comfortable for a week long stay, might be ok for overnight.

Clean, simple, and quiet. Very good value. Nice restaurant too!
2.0 / 10.0
Very comfortable hotel and great value for the price. The restaurant on the ground floor is actually one of the best on the hill. Not much in terms of views from the room, but the streets around it are nice and quiet and its super close to the funicular. The only downside is relying on the funicular to get to and from Como and the lake, but the hill provides a welcome sanctuary from the streets of the town which can be crowded with tourists and chaotic at times.

Frederico and the wonderful staff made my 4 day visit to Locanda Milano such a memorable experience. The village atmosphere is amazing and there are lots of places to explore around the hotel and the trip to Como via the Funicular is such an easy and scenic way to get to Como and the Lake. An hours tour of the Lake is a good way to begin to see the vastness of it. then home via the funicular (cable Car) and then to a wonderful dinner at the Hotel - a prefect day...
Without a doubt I will be returning to spend more time exploring this special part of the world.

This small family-run hotel in Brunate has much to offer for a short break on Lake Como. The hotel is reached by a seven minute almost vertical ride on the funicular from the lake to the village, which offers spectacular views from the viewing points over Lake Como. The owner Federico was happy to arrange a late check-in after 9.30pm. and was extremely helpful in many other ways, also setting up a special connection to watch some international sport in our room. He also offered advice about local places to visit in Como and in the area. He advised a day trip to lake Lugarno in Switzerland, a half-hour train journey from San Giovanni Station, and well worth the visit. The hotel offers a shuttle service to the two nearest train stations for which there is a fee. The alternative is a pleasant half-hour stroll to San Giovanni Station from the lower funicular station or a five minute stroll to the Como Lago Nord railway station which offers a handy connection to the Milan Malpensa Airport via Saronno. The walk from the upper funicular station to the hotel is well sign-written and can be done in two minutes (and the cobbled road is smooth enough to trundle your luggage).The Lake Como ferry ticket office is within five minutes stroll from the lower funicular station, with a drop-off quay right in front of the funicular. Despite the shoulder season, there were sufficient ferry connections to see all the main visiting points. We would recommend a ferry trip to Bellagio, about two hours ride on the slow ferry, and spending at least two hours there.The rooms in the hotel appear to have been recently redecorated and the room we had was a fair size with twin beds joined together. The mattress was firm but comfortable enough for us. There are no coffee making facilities in the rooms but there was a stocked bar-fridge . There was new bathroom and shower en-suite to our room. The hot water was a bit temperamental at times, but useable. The windows are double-glazed and this helps with the early morning traffic noise from the roads on either side of the hotel. There are slatted shutters on all the windows. There is no air-conditioning in the hotel and this could be a problem in mid-summer. We were there in October and the weather was fine and warm. Couldnt get the wi-fi to work but didnt worry because there is a lap top computer in the bar area that can be used by clients. The locals frequent the bar and there is a bit of social noise until about 10.30pm, but this adds to the local flavour. The locals are friendly and helpful. The cold buffet breakfast was sufficient and had a variety of breads, cereals, fruit, cakes, cheeses, ham and hot drinks served. The breakfast times were user friendly and humane (from 7.30am to 10.30am.). The servicing of the room was done daily and we were impressed that everything was refreshed each day while we were out. The hotel restuarant offers good service and a fair variety of Italian dishes. The prices are fairly high, but not much more so than the other places we visited in Brunate. Both the house wines were very good and reasonably priced. We had a comfortable break, brilliant views, good Italian food, wine and ice cream. What more could a tourist want?
