Hotel Engadina - Como

5.4

The room is a typical room if you want to stay for a night or two, no more. The noise from the street nearby is realy a problem. Parking also is not provided, but you can find places near the hotel with 2-5 € per day.

6.7

Amabilidad de sus propietarios. Mala relacion calidad precio. En España la habitacion costaria 70 euros y no 95, aunque incluya desayuno

9.2

good quality of service, nice athmosphere.

3.4

Service was o.k. but the price is by far too expensive for such a hotel in that location, which is so loud and the room is 10m distance from the sports stadium.

0.7

This hotel is a really an impertinence for travellers. We (little family) get a room with a 'double bed' about 1,20 meter. We are not on the street front but the noise was very loud although the windows are closed. No obligingness of the personal and hotel manager to find a solution. The breakfast was a joke - only Cappu was good. Sorry, I couldn´t recommend this hotel in Como anybody.

8.3

The hotel was quiet, modern and clean. Location was within walking distance of city center and train station. Free internet connection actually worked, as opposed to other hotels we stayed in. The staff was very helpful with restaurant recommendations and gave us discount coupons. Elevator was appreciated and breakfast was excellent.

7.3

Great location near train station and easy walk into town centre. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room and bed were small but comfortable. I expect the price is on the high side due to popularity of area.

7.3

Hotel staff were good and helpful. Traffic noise could be heard despite double glasing and would recommend that guests request a rear facing room. Hotel was well located near parks with a Supermaket located nearby

9.4

excellent hotel just a bit noisy from the road. rear rooms are better than the front

7.9

Excellent location for the train station, the lake and the town center. We had rooms 222 and 223 which are away from the main street. Definite value here, especially for a short stay. The town of Como is not a long stay place. We came in late by train, roamed the town that night having pizza in an outdoor cafe. Then took our bags down the next morning and checked them at the desk and spent the day in Bellagio (travelling by boat) which was very fun. recommend a similar program. Then picked up a rental car and left that afternoon for Carreno on Lake Maggiore which was also beautiful.

6.2

Nice surroundings but noisy room, it was faced on the main street (traffic noise)

7.0

Clean and comfortable accomodation centrally located

9.5

wonderful hospitality! in comparison to other higher graded hotels in como, this was an absolute surprise and pleasure. we will stay here again.

9.9

I was there 10 nights and thought the hotel was wonderful. We were close to wherever we needed to go. The front desk people were gracious, helpful and willing to do whatever it took to make our visit perfect. It was a wonderful time!!

8.1

We stayed only for a night and generally we had a pleasant stay.Staff very helpful and competent.Hotel clean and very close to the lake and it was very easy to find by car.Breakfast was geat too. Only negative point was the noise from the busy road that the hotel was on despite the double glasse windows.Maybe a little bit overpriced for what it had to offer.Overall a pleasant stay.

8.2

VERY NICE PROPERTY,EASY ACCESS TO THE TOWN CENTER,LOGICAL PRICE,EVERYTHING OK!

8.6

This is a great small hotel for business or leisure travellers. Easy access, greta service and very convenient to Como centro.

7.3

to thin bed sheets!

7.5

Good location and good relationship between price/quality. Near the hotel there are pay-parking areas but they are cheap.

9.9

Gutes Hotel der Mittelklasse, freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Kostenloses Parken vor dem Hotel! Würde wieder kommen

7.6

We had an enjoyable three day stay in Hotel Engadina. The room was modest but clean and comfortable and the staff were very courteous. The only 'negative' was that our room fronted onto a busy street and was therefore a little noisy. That said, after each day of exploration we had little problem getting to sleep!

8.7

This is a friendly hotel, very close to Lake Como, the centre of town and the railway station. The rooms are clean, well decorated and air conditioned. There is a busy road at the front of the hotel, but with the windows closed the noise is considerably reduced. The only potential problem could be that the hotel has very little dedicated parking. It made a great base for visiting Monza, Milan, Lake Como and Switzerland.

10

We only stayed one night, but this was a great hotel. This probably isn't the most central hotel, but it is only a 10 minute walk from the main train station and a 10 minute walk to the central part of Como. The receptionist (young lady) was extremely helpful in directing us to the places we wanted to see. She was fluent in english as well. We had read about it being kind of noisy, but we did not experience this problem at all. We had an interior room though. Would definitely recommend to others as well as stay here again.

7.3

A good, basic, three star hotel. Do print out a google map in order to find it though as the hotel's version isn't the most detailed. Breakfast is good (coffee, juice, yoghurts, croissants, rolls with condiments) and the location is five minutes walk from the lakeside and centre of Como. It is overpriced, but I think this is symptomatic of Como, rather than this particular hotel.

8.4

Good option for one night or lower budget stay. About a 20 minute walk from hotel to lake and downtown (i.e. Piazza Cavour). Clean rooms, clean bathrooms. Excellent latte for breakfast. No internet access. Insider tip: The hotel is close to the train station, but do not try to walk (despite the recommendation of the hotel staff) if you have heavy luggage, as the path from the hotel to the train station is only about 15 minutes but travels across several busy streets, narrow cobble stone sidewalks and includes several flights of steep stairs.

7.6

this hotel is very noisy in the night,because there is much traffic in the street

9.4

Staff was great. Hotel was a little further away from main part of town as we had expected from the information on line.

6.9

This was a good hotel for the price. The rooms were small, but not a-typical by European standards, and the bathrooms were nice. It's only a couple of blocks from the water and a about a 10 minute walk to the "heart" of Como. The only issue we had was finding the hotel since it's hard to see from the street.

7.0

The location of the hotel is excellent! its only a 5 minute walk and your in the heart of Como, and as a single female traveller I found the area to be very safe. My only complaint would be that the rooms are tiny, it was no problem for me because I didn't spend much time in the room but it was a bit of a shock to walk into such a small room! it was very clean though and you get a small cute balcony. Also whilst the breakfast was good, there are only limited tables so if the hotel is full you may have to wait for a table in the morning for breakfast (but annoying if your trying to catch the first ferry to Bellagio!). Overall though, for the price and location it was a very comfortable stay. I would stay there again for sure.

9.3

This is a good value hotel a very short walk from the Lake front. Our room was well decorated and very clean with fridge, aircon and balcony. The bathroom was superb. Only disappointment was breakfast which was adequate but nothing special with truly appalling coffee - not what I expect in Italy.

7.1

We stayed in Como for 2 nights. Engadina was a great base for the price. Only complaint was the traffic noise at night, although we had friends staying in another room and they couldn't hear the noise. We were closer to the main road.

7.6

The location was very good for a stay in Como, not in the main hustle, but a 10 minute walk along the water. It was great for me. The only concern I had was for a non-smoking room it did smell quite heavily of smoke. I would use the hotel again.

8.4

Our room had a fairly unattractive view (although not horrific). We were expecting a modern, efficient, fairly economical, clean hotel with air conditioning (for one night between destinations during our trip through Italy) and that's exactly what we got. The personnel was all very friendly and accommodating and the rooms were spotless.

8.4

Friendly,helpful staff and a good, well run hotel in a convenient location. Not the most picturesque area of Como, but easy to find, with car parking directly in front of premises. I used it merely for a 1 night stopover on the way to Umbria and it suited me perfectly. Very close to main autoroute.

7.1

The room on the street side is very noisy. Como itself is a nice city. Parking is a problem

7.9

Very good quality hotel, close to Lake and city. Staff pleasant and helpful.

7.2

This place was great EXCEPT for the street noise. It is on a busy road and all you hear are cars going by all the time. I was happy with the room - the bathroom was all new with nice new working plumbing. The room was big enough and clean and met our needs. I was surprised it was nicer than I expected - though the road noise was a bummer.

7.8

MArch 11 & 12th, 2007: Nice hotel, clean rooms. It is near the San Giovanni train station, which is why we booked there, so we could go to Milan and leave the rental car at the hotel.

6.1

Beds were very hard. Location was on a busy rd but outside noise not too bad. Room was smelly from too much smoking and little on the warm side. Staff were excellent and very helpful. Location is close enough to main stuff (8-10 mins walk to station and city centre). Walls were very thin. Breakfast was a little stingy with the croissants.

9.4

We would definitely stay here again. The room was lovely and clean. Very nice breakfast room with good service. (Great cappucinos!) All of the staff were helpful with any questions we had. On our last day they served us breakfast before the opening time of 7am so we could catch an early train. And the location was great - short walk to historical town centre and ferry terminal.

6.7

The Hotel was comfortable and welcoming, the rooms and facilities were adequate for our two night stay, and the street noise mentioned in some reviews wasn't a problem. We would use this friendly family Hotel again, and recommend it to others.

2.1

Hotel très bruyant.Route juste sous les fenetres.Loin du centr ville.Pas de restaurant à proximité.

8.7

Location - excellent. Rooms - excellent. Staff - very friendly, all could speak English. Not cheap but would recommend.

7.2

The location of the hotel is OK, although if you arrive at the train station its about a 15 minute walk. Our room had a lot of traffic noise as a main road runs in front of the hotel. They have block out shutters on the windows which helped, but there was still quite a lot of traffic noise. The rooms are good, very clean, large enough and the bathrooms are good.

8.6

I was very plased with this accommodation. It was central to what Como had to offer and to both railway stations. The staff was especially helpful and friendly. Although I was confident in communication in Italian, when I had to ring the airline, which was a little more difficult, the phone call was made for me, willingly and cheerfully. The room was very comfortable, the bathroom well equipped and newly fitted (loved the bath!!)The breakfast was typical continental style - but fine. I would return to this hotel.

5.6

I was at this hotel for two nights and had a double bed all though I was alone. The traffic noise is ridiculous. I had asked for a room away from the street but when your alone hotels tend to put you in the worst location. I would highly suggest getting better glass on the rooms facing the street. Breakfast was alright (croissant, buns, orange juice and coffee) I ordered a cafe latte and was presented with a jug of coffee and a jug of milk. I paid 70 euro a night but the price list in the hotel said 60 euro a night. The best part of my stay was the snack bar next door. The woman running it is delightful and the "snack food" tastes pretty good. I would suggest looking elsewhere first and using this hotel as a last resort

9.7

I was very surprised about Engadina,i found the hotel relly excellent,i wasn't expecting such a nice hotel like that when i see the hotel info's on Venere.Price is fare and rooms are very clean.Hospitality was great.All team of Engadina was very friendly.Thanks to all!!Hope i come to como again and stay there again !!! x Zeynep

4.6

Location fine but the traffic during the night was very noisy. With breakfast the rolls were fine and warm on Sunday but cold and very hard as the week progressed.

4.4

If you are looking for a quiet place, we recommend to choose another location. Otherwise, fine for one night.

7.3

The hotel is very good for being a 2 stars one, but I think it is too expensive.

3.5

Der Eingangsbereich sah ordentlich aus. Die Vorkasse machte uns stutzig. Als wir dann ins Zimmer kamen waren wir erschrocken: die Tapete hinterm Bett war versifft, mm-Dicke Staubschicht auf dem Bettgestänge, die Zudeck-Wolldecke war total schmutzig und müffelte. Ekelhaft! Es war kaum Platz im Zimmer. Das Badezimmer war klein, aber von der Sauberkeit erträglich. Hoteleigene Parkplätze sind im nahen Parkhaus nicht mehr vorhanden. Das nächste Parkhaus "Mozart" war unheimlich eng. Eine Video-Überwachung fand nicht statt - dafür war es mit 13,- € zu teuer und zu unsicher. Immerhin war man tatsächlich in 10 Min vom Hotel in die Innenstandt gelaufen. Never again!

8.2

The hotel seems to be near the Railway Station, but in fact you can either walk, which is not so funny with a suitcase, or take a taxi, unfortunately there is not bus service at all. The hotel is not central, it is on the boundary of the city with quite a lot of traffic. Inside and when windows are closed it has been very well renovated, upgraded actually from a 2 to 3 star hotel.

8.7

Our stay at Engadina will be a memorable one. Very clean rooms, staff was cordial, loved our little balcony in one of the two rooms. AC worked well, both rooms were quite, the location of the hotel walking distance to the lake, shops and restaurants. Breakfast was ample and a very tasty capuccino. I highly recommend it if you're to spend your time ourdoors. Free parking was very helpfull, make shure you ask for the Parking Card at the desk. It is not for a resort type of stay. Our two teenaged kids were happy with this hotel's arrangements. I would return to Engadina.

9.9

Great location--short walk to both the center of Como and the train station. The facility was new, modern and clean- a marble bath, shower curtain(!) and a spotless tub! Best of all the staff tried to help in every way; the morning manager even used his own cell phone to help! A definite good choice.

8.2

Gemütliches und schlichtes Hotel. Preis/Leistungs Verhältnis ist top. Neue Badezimmer und alles sehr sauber.

6.0

the breakfast was very poor. There was only jam and cheese spread. For 130,00 € I expected a little bit more. Real cheese,ham,bacon and an egg would be welcome. Last year Iwas in an hotel in Germany for 60,00 € I had all of this mentioned above. I don't think I'll stay for a second time.

8.1

accueil réellement charmant

8.1

noisy street but air conditionning exceltent welcome

5.8

the breakfast needs improvement. rooms facing the street are very noisy. hotel location is quite convenient. staff is courteous & helpful.

5.1

The Engadina is a comfortable walk to Como main centre. On a noisy, busy road, a room away from the street is essential for sleep. The lake and most facilities are nearby, including a good supermarket as eating in Como is expensive.

8.4

Extremely helpful staff. Very Pleased with our stay!

8.4

Un'ottima struttura, ben gestita e curata, in cui, sicuramente, tornerò. Vicina al centro storico, facilmente raggiungibile, unico neo i parcheggi, abbondanti i pubblici a pagamento, ma reperibili con pazienza nel fine settimana.

9.6

good location. walking distance to the docks. good breakfast. seemed clean, but there was a cockroach in our room.

7.6

As always, map provided left something to the imagination - paticularly when walking from the train station for two people in their 70s. Once there the location was an easy walk to almost everything. We tend to use public transportation on all our trips and location is very important to us

9.8

I found the hotel matched the information provided perfectly and our stay went well. I havd a group of six students and they found the location of all facilities very good. I would recommend the hotel as a good base for the area.

7.4

Hotel très pratique, proche du centre ville. Bien pour une étape d'une nuit. Bon petit déjeuner, personnel accueillant. Attention, si vous venez en voiture , les places réservées sont très limitées.

9.5

gutes hotel; zimmer/bad sehr sauber; altstadt gut erreichbar zu fuss (seepromenade); parkplatz vorhanden; frühstück sehr gut, obwohl keine grosse auswahl; nette bedienung; würden hotel weiterempfehlen für einen kurztrip nach como; einziger nachteil: strassenlärm!

7.3

Das Hotel ist für diesen Preis gut und geradezu ideal gelegen, weil man gut mit dem Auto hinkommt, aber auch schnell zu Fuss in der verkehrsberuhigten Altstadt ist. Man sollte aber darauf achten, dass man ein Zimmer nach hinten raus bekommt, weil es sonst etwas laut ist.

6.2

Hotel room was fine, apart from the fact that we had one of the two rooms which face the main street. There was traffic noise all night. And we had to open the window because it was awefully hot in the hotel room (airconditioning was still switched on winter-modus)...Apart from that everything was fine. Nice bathroom!

9.1

This hotel had very clean, average sized roooms. Even though our room faced the main street, we had no problem with noise. The location was convient to the lake and a short cab ride to the train station. I would recommend this hotel to my friends.

9.6

The hotel was a great value for the price. It was very conveniently-located and the staff was helpful and freindly. The rooms were small but very clean. I would definitely stay here again if I ever travel back to Como.

9.8

A lovely hotel in a wonderful location in Como. Very close to lake and the center of the town. The hotel was clean and well appointed, if a bit clinical. The staff did not speak English more than a few words, but were helpful. The breakfast was good. A great value.

9.1

The room and the public space is nallow but very clean. The location is good; only 5 minuts from both of the train station and historic part.

8.8

The Hotel and room was as described. Bathroom big enough. Pity that the staff in the restaurant don't speak English. Breakfast consists of coffee and croissant which was disapointing.

5.2

room relatively small. room very noisy...street traffic room in the center of a large town. thought it would be more country. hotel hard to find...parking was not obvious ... we had parked a block away and walked to hotel and then told where to park. It was on a main street so, took awhile to find.

10

great room, wonderful hotel. All they need is an internet facility on site. A first class hotel other than that.

7.8

Our room was at the front and traffic noise from the busy main road meant that we could not open the window for fresh air. Otherwise, everything was as expected.

9.3

I found the hotel exceptional value for money, only minutes from lake, rooms allthough small were clean and adequate. Staff friendly and helpful.

8.7

Lovely hotel,close to SG train station. Hotel staff very helpful and polite, a chambermaid helped with luggage, receptionists were very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast staff very pleasant and went out of their way to speak to my 2year old grandson. Room on the third floor was cosy clean and quiet(at least until the last night when a few very noisy residents woke us up at 3a.m. At 300 euros for 3 nights, it wasnt cheap but I have learned that it is far better to pay a little extra for a far better experience. Would definitely return.

8.9

This is a very good hotel! Just 5 minutes away from the Lago di Como, 10 minutes to the central station, 3 min. to a supermarket... Disadvantage: The place is quite loud because the hotel is situated along a main road (i recommend to use ear plugs, really!!). The english speaking staff was kind and helpful, breakfast is OK, the capuccino excellent (as always and anywhere in italy...). I would stay there again.

8.1

The property was clean and as advertised. The staff were friendly and competent. The suroundings were a little industrial and the noise level was quite high.

8.9

The best part was that the Engadina was adjacent to a small cafe/bar where we experienced the most tasty and reasonable meal. The service in this cafe/bar was just great and the staff, as with the whole of the Engadina, were very friendly, courteous and helpful. We would certainly return to the Engadina Hotel in Como.

9.6

This clean, comfortable hotel is well-located in Como. It is within walking distance of two train stations, the bus station, the lake boats, and the old-town. It is a nice hotel, but what makes it outstanding is the location.

8.2

Well located hotel. Although the room we had was adjacent to a very busy road and hence noisy with the windows open as soon as the windows were closed the sound level inside the room was very acceptable. Good breakfast and pleasent service

9.7

If you're traveling by rail, this hotel is in a great location- about a five minute walk from the station. Also, it's only about a ten minute walk to Piazza Cavour, the main square in town. Restaurants are also fairly close by. The staff was very helpful and accommodating, and the continental breakfast was very good. One drawback may be that if you're a light sleeper, the sound of the motorcycles at night might be disturbing, as the hotel is on a main street. Otherwise, it's a great bet at a great price.

9.9

Good location, friendly reception, clean rooms

8.4

would stay here again

8.9

Hotel well located for all amenities. Accomodation clean and tidy. Close to main road and easy walk from station. Would use hotel again.

4.8

Hi, the biggest problem was the trouble of the road behind the room - it's very difficult to sleep in the night. That's why we're leaving the hotel. The employees are competent and friendly. Como - a very nice place. I'll retourn back as soon as possoble. Best regards,

7.1

Le petit déjeuner serait à améliorer, pour le mettre au niveau du prix pratiqué.

8.2

Malgré quelques difficultés à repérer l'entrée de l'hôtel, nous avons pleinement apprécié l'accueil et le confort, ainsi que la réelle proximité des sites intéressants. L'hôtel lui-même n'a pas de réel cachet, mais il est confortable, bien tenu et agréablement décoré.C'est une adresse que nous retenons, d'autant plus que même notre voiture a pu "séjourner" sans frais.

5.7

This hotel was difficult to find because there are two different rail lines that stop in Como. One needs to take the line that stops at the San Giovanni station. I took the other line and walked 2 km with a heavy suitcase. While the reception people were very nice, and there is an elevator and air conditioning, the room felt cramped and there was no view from the window. Given that Como is a beautiful city, I think one could do better than this for the price.

7.6

As expected from previous comments, the hotel is very comfortable and the staff are very helpful. Breakfast is basic continental (rolls or croissants and jam). The hotel has a useful and reasonable bar/cafe/gelateria to one side (connected with the foyer). As it is on a busy main road, make sure you close the windows and balcony door so that the air conditioning works and keeps out traffic noise at night. Very good and reasonable trattoria locally "In Borgovico" (ask at desk, closed on Mon).

6.1

A nice hotel close to the central of Como. A bit diffcult to find as there was only a small sign from a busy street. We had a room towards inner yard, which was quiet. I would imagine that a room towards the street would be noisy.

9.1

room at the front of the hotel was a little noisey from the road. breakfast was plentiful but only a typical european breakfast of bread and crossiants. central to the lake and the old town and staff could speak english and were willing to answer any questions and helpful

8.8

Located 10 minute walk from centre. Nothing outstanding but good value for money. Small selection but adequate breakfast. Would use this hotel again.

8.0

Directions for getting to the Hotel could be made a lot simpler with a better map. The hotel was perfectly fine, though a too little noisy for my tastes.

10

Loved this hotel. The location was perfect and Como is just a dream. The staff was friendly and hotel was clean, quaint and the bathrooms were nice. You couldn't go wrong with this one. I've booked several hotels with this website and haven't once been disappointed.

6.1

Americans will compare this Hotel to a motel 6. Very small rooms, no pictures on the wall, just a bed with a bathroom. The problem is that it cost us the price of a Mariott. The web site map was very poor and made it hard to find. The Hotel is right on a very busy street and our room was right in front and the noise kept us awake most of the night. The staff was friendly and spoke english and the breakfast was O.K. The bathroom was clean with a very small shower. If you drop your soap you have to get out of the shower and reach in to get it. It was a 8 -10 min. walk to the lake. Of all the Hotels we stayed in in Italy this was our least favorite.

4.8

It's squeaky clean and newly renovated, all right. Location is B+. Rooms and bathrooms are for the dwarfs, not for real size people. Breakfast is pathetic. Staff could not tell me how to get outside line from the room, and how much it costs. Credit card machine refuse to work at check-out time. Bottomline - if you are lonely traveler - it's OK for a quick overnighter, otherwise - don't bother.
