"For me, the biggest reason why you come to Villa Sassa is the majestic view or the surrounding areas. It's a scene out of a movie. Beautiful with a lake view. The only thing that could be better is having more kid friendly food options and a major paint job of the buildings, as it looks outdated and takes away from the aesthetic view of the property. "
"The Osteria Della Pista is not the fanciest hotel but it really did grow on us with its quaint old world charm and we became very fond of it and its wonderful staff. Everyone was so pleasant and helpful which was welcoming and made us feel like they really did care about our stay being a great experience. Nestled in a small village close to the airport and within walking distance of the train station there was also a church down the road that we could hear the bells ringing in the morning and a little farther down we enjoyed gelato every evening after we ate dinner at the hotel which by the way dinner was always amazing. The manager of the restaurant was very friendly and always accommodating and after we checked out we found out that the manager Celeste was actually one of the owners of the hotel and we couldn’t speak more highly of him. Our room was very clean but if I did have to pick one thing to change I would recommend nicer furniture in the rooms. Maybe something antique to match the ambiance of the hotel and surrounding area. Overall we had an amazing stay and would definitely recommend to our friends and family. "
"A five star experience at a four star hotel. Staff was execptional. Food was good. Hotel is recently renovated, so the rooms are clean and pleasant. Pool area is very well laid out with amazing views of Lake Como."
"This was a great hotel location for those looking to easily get access to MXP. They have a convenient shuttle (for free) and very accommodating staff. Affordable, clean, updated hotel. My wife and I enjoyed our quick stay."
