Wow, Wow, Wow. What a place to stay. We were met by Sabrina the host, nothing was too much trouble. The room and its view is something you can normally only dream of. Stunning. There were many little extra touch like cakes, milk, coffee biscuits etc available to us. It’s only a 300m walk into the town, where there are a few bars and restaurants, but it’s also where you can catch the ferry to anywhere on the lake. For example the trip into Como was just over 20mins. This place is highly recommended, do yourself a favour, stay here!!!

We stayed in December 2021, Sabrina was very attentive and met us at the door, giving us a quick tour & all the necessary information. We had a parking space right outside the front door. We stayed in a room overlooking the Lake, it was immaculately clean & warm with everything you could possibly need, the shower was hot and powerful, the bathroom was spotless with towels, hairdryer etc. The kitchen was equipped with every utensil & appliance, we ate out every day but did have a coffee for breakfast. The ferry port is 2 minutes along the Lake as are a few restaurants. The view from our balcony was fantastic, right over the water, we can't wait to return and we tell everyone about La Darsena!

What a relaxing getaway! Wonderful casual atmosphere with amazing views with access to the water. After exploring the towns of Lake Como all day, I came back to the house and sat on the deck over the lake. Perfectly quite and peaceful. The hostess was more than accommodating, pleasant and helpful with local sights and treasures to find. Room was perfectly clean and comfortable. Best way to get to and from is the water take from Como.

Awesome Lake Como B&B
Our stay in Moltrasio was wonderful! We loved our room with wide windows that opened to let in terrific breezes and a beautiful balcony over Lake Como. The fan in our room was excellent in keeping us comfortable. We had free use of a full kitchen and cooked some of our own meals to enjoy on our balcony. Our room was very spacious and the view was outstanding! We took a train to Colico, then walked to a ferry station nearby.and took a ferry to Molrasio. The walk to the B&B is about 10 minutes from the ferry, and does not have sidewalks all of the way, so you must walk close to the sides for a few minutes. The walk around town in amazing, but requires a lot of steep stair climbing. There is a terrific gelato shop up at the top to reward the climb! We took a ferry to Como to do our grocery shopping and use an ATM.

Amazing little place
We stayed in Patria - a 1 bedroom flat. On arrival check in was very simple. There was nothing that was too much trouble for them. They had made us a cake and left little bits like shampoo and milk and some snacks. The views are second to none! We shall be returning to this absolute little gem!

La Darsena on waters edge
La Darsena was simply lovely, the check in was quick and Sabrina was friendly. She supplied us some products for breakfast and some drinks to enjoy for sundowners. The space was spacious with lovely kitchen and lounge area and comfortable bedroom. The views from balcony and room are gorgeous. La Darsena is literally set on waters edge so you have no barrier between you, the water and great view. The place was peaceful and charming. Only small issue was bathroom is outside across the passage but is for your private use only. We did not find this to be a problem

Super séjour de 3 nuits dans cet hôtel au bord du lac ! Un vrai plaisir tous les matins d’ouvrir les volets et de voir le lac aux pieds de la chambre !! Avec un peu de chance on peut garer la voiture à côté (deux petites places en face de l’hôtel) sinon il faut aller un peu plus loin sur un parking payant et difficile d’accès pour les piétons. Mais ça n’enlève rien au charme de cet hôtel d’un bon rapport qualité - prix !
