The USP of this property is the amazing view down to Lago di Lugano across into Switzerland. There is also the interesting story about the old funicular railway to the rear of the hotel which closed in 1977 but may be refurbished and reinstated if funds can be secured. It is a rural location, about 20 mins walk from the nearby town of Lanzo d'Intelvi and the bus service from Como drops you about 400m from the hotel reception if you aren't driving. Rooms were not air conditioned but you do get a oscillating fan! Get a room with a view and you won't be disappointed

Super accommodating. We booked last minute because another hotel booking fell through & upon checking in we were upgraded to a lake view room. Mohammed at the restaurant was very good to us.

When we arrived at the Hotel Funicolare we were greeted with a breathtaking view & this really is one of the hotel's best features. We were also pleasantly suprised to be given a family room (which we had booked) which was actually 2 rooms that were adjoining giving us lots of space, 2 bathrooms and 3 balconies. The rooms had, I believe, just been renovated and they were very charming and clean as were the stairs and entry area. There were a few niggles though. The lights in the hallway were on a sensor and timer and so if you were entering the hallway from your room, it was pitch black until you were within range of the sensor. Now for the worse bit, the restaurant! Breakfast was wonderful with amazing croissants and everything else was yummy! However, I was not impressed with the evening service. First of all, the pizza oven was not working for the 2 nights we were there which made up for 70% of the menu. When we requested one of the 6 other choices we were told that that wasn't available and the wine I wanted wasn't available either. What we did get that night was pretty good. The 2nd night (Wednesday) was so busy and they just couldn't cope, service was slow, there was no 'sorry', there were people walking away because pizza wasn't available. When my Spaghetti alle Vongole finally arrived it was nothing special and hardly had any sauce, I could have done better myself at home! Very disappointing and really put a dampner on what would've been an amazing stay!

Outstanding location

Outsanding and unique property. The views are stunning and breakfast is great. We were worried that it will be hot at night with no AC. It is higher up aka cooler at nights anyways so had no issues there (they have strong fans anyways). Super friendly staff and amazing ambience. Rustic and unique - definitely returning!

We had an amazing 6-day stay at Hotel Funicolare. The family suite provided to us was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The location is excellent — just a short drive to both Lake Como and Lugano. The views from our rooms were absolutely breathtaking. The staff was friendly, courteous, and always helpful. We also enjoyed the good breakfast each morning. We look forward to returning to this hotel in the near future. Sharing a photo of the beautiful view from each room!

Unbelievable View! Amazing breakfast!

Try finding a hotel with that view for that price anywhere in the world, the pictures just can't capture how amazing it is. Breakfast was the best I've had and worth £30+ but was included. Rooms were the cleanest by far I've stayed in and we are on a roadtrip around europe. The receptionist was very helpful and the owner went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. For the fact they have only just opened I'd get in while the prices are cheap as they will surely go up with popularity. Top recommendation from the owner, go and see the Balcony of Italy that is 15mins away WOW!
