Spacious room, very clean, comfortable bed, excellent food in the restaurant, friendly staff, lovely view over the lake. You’ll need the car to arrive there. Easy access to visit Como lake.

We loved the location on top of the hill with a Birds Eye view of the lake. It’s only accessible with a car though, so wouldn’t recommend if you want to stay in one of the major towns of como. But we found it to be very convenient and were easily able to get to Menaggio from where we to ferries to Bellagio and verena. It’s also close to the Swiss border so we travel across to Fox Town outlet stores for a quick browse. The restaurant is lovely and they have a good breakfast selection compared to most other places we’ve been to in Italy. The room is comfortable by does not have AC (however we did not miss it as it was quite cool during our stay).

Great breakfast with a good choice. Our room was called The Suite and was the only room that had a balcony. Given the amazing view we thought it was worth the extra cost. The room itself was very spacious with lots of storage space. The restaurant has food which is simply delicious.

I would have preferred a better quality fruit juice at breakfast time. It is also a very steep climb up to the hotel but there is a footpath from behind the church which saves having to walk on the road.

Very good welcome, breakfast, quality of bedding and everything is very clean. Very good restaurant. Nice view to the lake and the mountains, hills.

No lift to the 1st and 2d floors but it's an old building. No Coffee corner in the room with water boiler and cups. One interrogation: I didn't see an air conditioning system in the room. During summer time it could be a problem. BUT there is a system on the ground in the room; I didn't test it: heather or air conditioning?????

Excellent friendly staff, the delicious restaurant (try the dishes with fresh porcini), the wine cellar (about 5,000 bottles at the moment!!), the location (easy for the ferry, 5 minutes drive, free parking at the Campo Sportivo in Argegno, as long as you don't mind the very steep walk back), the view, large rooms. We would definitely go back.

Bed a bit hard, but that is very subjective. The rooms are large, but lack a little bit of personality, but all the good things about the hotel make up for it.

The room was clean and comfortable. The staff were polite and our bags were carried to our room (no lift). The views from the hotel were stunning! Travellers be wary of the 2KM of very narrow, windy mountain road to access the hotel.

Not a criticism, but worthy of note: It’s a long mountainous drive down to the nearest town for restaurants and bars if you don’t want to use the hotel restaurant.

Cozy inn in peaceful surroundings. The inn is on the trekking path from Argegno and connects to numerous hikes in Val d'Intelvi. The restaurant offers majestic views of the valley. Breakfast was delicious with many choices. Highly recommend trying the restaurant for lunch or dinner as well, as they have wonderful local dishes and wine at reasonable prices. Comfortable beds, spotless rooms and bathrooms. Friendly staff.

Our room was by the main stair case, so it could be noisy if a family was coming up or down. In particular, a toddler had a meltdown in the stairway at 6 am - not so fun.

This place is a gem! I loved how clean and tidy it was, and the food. Oh my God,the food! I've put on one extra kg in 3 days and regret nothing:)) Definitely a place I'd love to come back to.

Maybe as a suggestion, some other things for kids besides the 2 swings would be nice.

Food there is fantastic! I’m very glad that I booked this hotel. We stayed 5 nights, everyday after a good trip around the lake, we could always come back and enjoy the delicious dishes there, with some good selected wine of course. Room is very clean, we had a suite with balcony, good view and sunshine everyday! There is a nice path for walking down to the lake through the bush, which is a good way to exercise. Hotel staff are also very friendly, you can feel that they are sincere to help you. We definitely love this hotel!

Nothing. One tiny point: I saw some guests coming with lovely dogs, while from published hotel policy that is not accepted. I’m not against it, just try to clarify… if it’s allowed, then we will take our dog together next time.

Locanda Sant'Anna was absolutely beautiful. The location above Argegno gave us incredible views down onto the lake and surrounding hills from both the suite balcony and our tables at both breakfast and dinner. The staff were lovely and helpful, happy to accommodate requests for us and perfectly able to understand us in both English and my imperfect Italian! The food at the hotel was incredible, as someone with dietary limitations my requests for alteration were easily met and at no point did I feel like I'd had anything less than an excellent meal. My partner had a similarly happy experience at all our meals, including a Tirimasu she called 'the best thing she'd ever eaten!' It's a short drive down the hill to the lakeside where there are plenty of places to stop for food or activities and although we did not explore public transport options for the lake area the train links to Milan from Como were cheap and reliable offering a great way to see another city without having to stay in a metropolitan area. If that wasn't enough reason to visit there is also an electric car charger owned and operated by the hotel and priced very reasonably, although Brits be aware it may only charge using 1 phase with a UK type 2 cable, so it would be best used to top up overnight if possible. We had an amazing time and would love to visit again. Grazie mille a tutti e alla prossima!
