This place takes to you back in time. Located in a wonderful garden with a beautiful view, you feel like time has frozen when you step inside. The villa has kept its original spirit with the nice decoration and furniture without giving away from cleanliness. Definitely an experience for people who do not look for chain hotels without spirit. We stayed in a room with private bathroom, I would not prefer to share this with other people. As I understood not every room was like this. For us everything went fine.

The wifi signal is only available in the ground floor. Yes, it's a place to disconnect and not work but you should be able to make a whatsapp call in your room. Not as a negative point, indeed the location was perfect for us but you definitely need a car to reach in and out.

The location and views were superb.overlooking Lake Como The garden was lovely to explore . The breakfast was just what we needed with plenty of choice to choose from . The fruit was delicious. The local pizzeria and gelato were one of the best we had visited and we could walk there so we could have a drink :)

If you need Charging ports for mobile phone it had old Italian plugs so maybe having an adapter which would fit this at an extra charge even would be useful . We found a modern plug with air conditioner so used this so we were fine in one room :)

We recently spent two nights at Villa Corti in Como and were absolutely charmed by the beauty of this hidden gem. Reached via a steep winding road, the views from the property are simply breathtaking from every aspect. The host greeted us very warmly, despite the fact that we were well ahead of the agreed check in time and had taken advantage of the outside seating area to enjoy the views. The villa is a rare find in such a popular tourist focused area and is the perfect romantic getaway for couples wanting to explore the Como area and the Great Lake Como. The host happily gave us some fantastic tips on making the most of our time in Como and was able to direct us to free parking, very close to the ferry port - the gateway to a hop on/off tour of all of the beautiful towns and villages that Lake Como has to offer. The ferry to places such as Bellagio are an absolute must and Como centre itself is lovely with an unbelievably beautiful church/cathedral Inside the accommodation the room was absolutely delightful, full of original charm and features, and far removed from the more touristy places on offer. With a partition door completely closing you off from the rest of the villa, we enjoyed absolute privacy with a stunning period room, a well equipped private bathroom and the whole place was spotlessly clean. The host was on hand if needed and was kind and helpful, but he was totally unobtrusive and did not disturb our privacy in any way. Another great bonus was the parking right outside the premises at no extra charge offering the perfect security when leaving your vehicle overnight. We cannot say enough positive things about this beautiful villa and would not hesitate to return Highly recommended - especially for those travelling by car/motorcycle The perfect stay !!!!!

it’s lovely but it’s quirky …. wouldn’t suite s family or anyone without a car

If you want the experience of staying in an authentic Italian villa, full of antiques, and the most amazing views at a most reasonable price then this is the place. Having a car would be an advantage, but not essential as there is a gentle sloping walk down to the village of S. Fermi about a mile away. Great way to get your steps in and burn off some holiday calories! Of course arriving and leaving with luggage and no car?? Well, no problem, as the Guido, the host, collected us from the nearest train station, Grandate Breccia and dropped us off again when we were leaving. He was very accommodating with lifts if he was going in the same direction at the same time. The views are amazing, looking down over the harbour in Como and up to the village of Brunate at the top of the funicular train. Breakfast was fine, cereal, fruit and coast and cheeses. You could use the kettle and the toaster whenever you wished. We were there in early October, but it was around 21°C for the week with sun trying to burn off the low lying mist but not succeeding. It was very comfortable to move around. Our bedroom was like an apartment, with a sitting area leading to two large bedrooms and a bathroom. The shower was great. All in all a lovely stay.

Everything was lovely

The house is locatedin a beautiful place, on the hill over the city. It is very peaceful with a great view. The villa is very romantic with the od furnitures, our aparment was roomy, comfortable for 4 persons. Everything was very clean, and the cleaning lady came daily to put everything in order. The owner was very kind and helpful and we loved the two cats staying around the house.

My husband missed a little more rich breakfast, but it was for fine for me.

Breakfast was perfect, you help yourself to toast, tea, coffee, yoghurt, sweet buns and cereal, plenty of food, we ate light so one had plenty of room for a fabulous Italian lunch. The view from the Villa was extraordinary especially when we bothered to walk left and towards Como di Lago out along and under the arbour.

We couldn't fault anything. We had to get a car, it's a fair way up from Como, but hey, without one we wouldn't have gone to Switzerland for lunch, MV Agusta Museum or the Moto Guzzi Museum both well worth a visit for enthusiasts, we also drove completely around the Lago and went for a four hour sail, fabulous. The local Taxi's will service the Villa, but a car is definitely a plus.

Loved the style of the Villa - beautiful grounds and felt very safe. Although we had decided not to have breakfast, it did look amazing. The host was SO kind and such a lovely gentleman, made us feel so welcome and ‘at home’. Even kindly took us to the local bus stop to show us directions to walk to the property and recommended places to eat. Simply cannot fault the Villa itself and the host - we definitely would love to come back in the summer to make use of the grounds. The view from our room was exceptional and one of our favourite parts of the trip.

Much higher up than we anticipated. Stupidly I only took flip flops which made the walk more hard work, perhaps not a walk to make with children or elderly unless fit and able. The walk would not put me off staying here again as it’s so amazing - but next time I shall be more prepared and bring trainers!

This property has a gorgeous view of Como. It is up on the hill, and is about a 20 minute drive from the station. Upon arrival, the host pleasantly greeted us. For us, one of the best parts of this stay was how lovely the host was. Along with the warm welcome, he recommended to us a lovely place to eat dinner, where he himself made the reservation and drove us there. He also recommended to us where to get dessert. The area is very safe, even at night. The room itself was super homely and clean with perfectly working facilities. The private bathroom was very comfortable and clean too. There was a wide breakfast selection, from cereal to pastries which we thoroughly enjoyed. We definitely would recommend this as an affordable, and happy stay.

Villa Corti is located on the hill, so it will give you as it gave us WONDERFUL VIEW in the morning! We woke up every day with Como Lake in the fron of our eyes! Amaizing! Room, bathroom, garden - nice, clean, with an amaizing old italina villa vibe! Host is also friendly, helpful, always postitive ready to give some advide about the trip, city or transportation.

Polished terracotta tiles, beautiful garden, extremely friendly and helpful host, very comfortable bed and large bedroom, spotless bathroom, room to breathe and relax. I came to work, but felt as though I was on holiday. I would definitely stay here again.

The only negative thing I can think of, (and this is no fault of the host), is the busy road not far from the property, but the bedroom windows were totally soundproof and a new sound-barrier is being put up next year.
