A bit dated sanitary installation (difficult to regulate the hot water in shower), electricity cut after leaving room/removing key. Superb location on the lake front, wonderful views, very friendly and forthcoming staff (never a problem whenever we asked for something, eg. storage of our electrical bikes). A lot of dining options within walking distance.

Really lovely hotel in a beautiful location, with exceptional views. Daily breakfast was great too. Only down side was the lack of air conditioning, although we did stay during the recent heatwave.

This hotel is in a great place overlooking the lake, we had stunning views from morning to night time. Shops, eateries and buses all within a 5 minute walk. We were there mid September but alot of places were closed in the evening so limited on dining options out of the hotel. Parking was very tight due to other inconsiderate guest parking and it was 20 minutes to Lake Como so we had the benefit of a cheaper price than Lake Como towns. No tea/coffee making facilities but eveerything else was great

Beautiful two-night stay at Hotel Europa

A great small hotel. We expected a restaurant, but it was only for breakfast. Nice small pool, but note that there is no service by the pool (no drinks, no coffee, and no snacks). Our room was nice, but it would have been better if we had air-conditioning and a fridge. The staff was very service minded. The view and the balcony were awesome. The city of Porlezza is small but has the things you need on a vacation: Beauty, the lake, a Beach, and some restaurants.

Sufficient place to stay for short time, kind ppl!

My friends and I had a pleasant time at this hotel, it is in a quiet area where locals are just across from the lake. It is an older building with very small amenities such as little bathroom space but it was sufficient enough for us for our 2 night stay. Keep In mind they have no air conditioning in the rooms at least none that we saw, however we let the windows open for a breeze and left the fans on and that kept the room cool. The front desk employees were so kind and helpful, they suggested great places for us to eat in the local area and provided us with great service. I would definitely recommend staying here for a short time.

Great view

The view of the lake is great, but the hotel is old-fashioned and intended only for a short stay. We stayed at the hotel for a week and it was too long. The hotel is old-fashioned, but clean. Breakfast was simple and the same every morning, I also missed veggies. The gym was equipped with non-functioning equipment, so it does not serve anyone. We also tried the sauna and it was good. I would recommend to pay little more and find a hotel from Lugano or Lake Como.

It was very difficult to get to this hotel, unless you drive, as the town doesn't offer taxis and we were unable to hire a driver. We ended up taking the city bus which wasn't a great option with our luggage and with the bus timetable. The hotel itself was right on the water and five minutes to the beach. The staff was exceptional friendly and helpful. The wifi wasn't great and the hotel didn't have air conditioning so in mid-July we had some hot nights! Overall tho, we were quite pleased. Just ensure you are aware of the lack of taxis and no air conditioning as those things took us by surprise.

Good location if you choose the lake view rooms. Bedding and the rooms were clean but that’s where all the positives stop. There is no air conditioning so the night was hit even with the extremely slow speed ceiling fan, and not even an iron available. Toilet seats were broken and no curtains in the bath when taking shower in either of the two rooms, and no overhead shower so showering was not a good experience. When asked for the iron we were told we’d had to walk10 minutes. Also no fridge in the rooms. We then had to pay for the breakfast which we thought was included since we paid extortionate prices, even for the peak seasons. Will be speaking to Expedia about it. Feel ripped off sadly :(

Awful experience!

The missing Air-conditioning was the main deal breaker . The beds were very uncomfortable ;I left with a back pain. The wifi was really bad , unstable. The pool is open from 10:00am to 07:00pm .All good until you realize that during the day you cannot use it too much and by the evening the staff tells you off at 07:00 sharp in a non polite manner. Durring my stay ( june 20-27 ) I had a surprise of a construction site right next to it . Every morning 07:00 sharp the workers uill cut in iron and wood making a awfully loud noise . No minibar in the room . The rooms are looking awful, everything is old and works like it . On the balcony you get just twoplastic seats over-used and mini table. Overall the worst experience I've ever had.By the end of the holiday I got so pissed that really made me hate this place . The only good parts are: the location and the fact that the cleaning staff did a perfect job considering that the showers were not sealed properly and water will get out all over the bathroom. Nothing more , nothing less.
