I would have given 5 stars if the restaurant was up and running but the restaurant was under construction. Everything is excellent, not as busy as other places so it is very romantic, beautiful and quiet away from the noisy part of Lake Como. Perfect get away place to stay for us.

Great staff who were more than welcoming and very accommodating. Very comfortable room and amenities, as well as is a wonderfully central location to get to some of the best spots on the lake in a timely manner. It gives you the least touristy vibes off the whole lake. 10/10 would stay again!

My wife and I stayed here for a week at the end of September (2025). The setting is stunning and the staff exceedingly courteous and helpful. The property condition is excellent and very clean - appears to have been recently renovated. A beautiful terrace overlooking Lake Como and the mountains. Close to the Lake Como water taxi station, so convenient to get around to Bellagio, Mennagio, etc. The on-site restaurant has great food at a reasonable price. Highly recommend Hotel Helvetia.

A hidden gem in Lezzeno. I had a great Lake front room. The rooms are clean, updated and has everything you need including a refrigerator. Easy parking if you have car. A 10 minute walk to catch a ferry to any of the other cute towns. The breakfast overlooking the lake is wonderful with an assortment of choices and they will make you a latte!!
