Reviews for NH Lecco Pontevecchio

Review 1:We had a very nice stay at this hotel. We booked a triple room for a reasonable price. Our room was big and clean. The staff was very helpful. Included breakfast was varied and the Wifi worked all the time.

Review 2:The free wifi is extremely slow and very painful to use. Obviously you can pay to have the speed upgraded - I don't like this!! Just give me the good internet straight up! Also the hotel resturant, bar and room service are not avaliable on the weekends which was extremely inconvenient.

Review 3:Great hotel that is close to the train station. Very helpful staff and very clean and well presented hotel. The room was large and modern looking. Great bathroom facilities and an opening window. Overlooking the lake which is a nice view. Mini bar and hair dryer were great and the breakfast is as good as you could want. They also offer a free of charge coffe and tea station in the lobby for use all night which was a nice touch. Would reccomend and stay at again.

Review 4:the service at reception was a bit rude the day we arrived the hotel is old and needs some decor upgrade its has not very pleasant smell

Review 5:breakfast was delicious good location

Review 6:Parking a little difficult to find a space especially late at night.

Review 7:The room was very big even the bathroom. Bed was very big and comfortableThis hotel is in a quiet area and just five minuets walk to the centre .

Review 8:The air conditioning system controlled only from the reception without having the possibility to be adjusted from the room that made it uncomfortable ... in several times we call the reception during the night to adjust the temperature.

Review 9:Very nice location situated on the river close to Ponte Vechio bridge. Nice reception staff, good Italian coffee and breakfast. Free parking place is definitely also a benefit. For 80-100 Euro per night we recommend the hotel.

Review 10:Chose the hotel specifically for parking which was not available as we arrived late & all spots (not nearly enough) were full. I was told to park in the street or pay for parking. Very disappointed

Review 11:Nice place, clean roomy & well laid out

Review 12:No parking - dining room OK for breakfast but poor for dinner

Review 13:accommodating staff - arranged to turn on aircon - which was off when we arrived. large room and good breakfast.

Review 14:Very hard to fault

Review 15:The overall friendliness of the staff, size and comfort of the room, walking distance to the town and bus station and most importantly breakfast was amazing

Review 16:no iron facility throughout whole hotel - so all of my clothes were creased! Poor breakfast, staff at bar were not attentive

Review 17:location was great and room was good size

Review 18:Beds a bit too hard for us Location a little far away from town centre Too few free parking spaces, although we were lucky to get one

Review 19:Very nice and serviceminded staff Room was nice and had all we needed - very nice breakfast buffet, the best on our entire trip (9 hotels in 9 days)

Review 20:That walk into town takes a few minutes, not too much in the immediate area.

Review 21:Nice room, great breakfast, location allowed for a nice walk along the river/lake to center of town, reasonable price.

Review 22:The hotel does not have major outside facilities. This was not a big problem since the city center was at 5 minutes walking, but a better terrace would have added to our pleasure.

Review 23:Large room + bathroom, very clean, comfortable bed, good breakfast, good personnel (even received a cake on the room on birthday). Close to city center.

Review 24:It was a very nice hotel and on a beautiful destination, Lecco has it all.. Bars, restaurants, clean, boulevard, water and the best of it all is that wherever you go, you have a very nice view at the mountains and the water. I've traveled true many places in Europe and I think this is my most beautiful destination where I've ever been.

Review 25:The photo of the location is misleading. The hotel appears to be more isolated than it is. It was very crowded on a busy street and the room was much smaller than we expected. We had spent the night before at the NH in Padua which was so much more plush.

Review 26:The lobby, the proximity to the lake and town of Lecco

Review 27:You cannot swim in vicinity of the Hotel, the nearest beach is 5 km away. Not enough of parking space. No gym or spa facilities.

Review 28:Nice breakfast, friendly staff.

Review 29:Size and comfort of room and bed. Friendly, helpful and polite staff, in particular the gentleman running the dining room. Superb breakfast choices every day.

Review 30:Small toilets (tiny shower) and wi-fi didn't work well. Sometimes it was hard to reach staff by phone.

Review 31:I loved the location. 50 m to the beach and taverns. Very helpful and friendly hosts (business run by the whole family). Appartment was spacious and clean. Good value for money.

Review 32:We have received perfect and obliging service during our two weeks stay, from the people at the reception, as well as from the staff in the restaurant, during breakfast, from the repair staff and from the cleaning ladies. Spacious and beautiful rooms.

Review 33:At check-in, the concierge wasn't very helpful and did not make a very welcoming impression. The sheets are quite rough.

Review 34:The staff at our check-out were very friendly. The hotel room and bathroom was very clean. It takes about 3 minutes to walk to the main town / lake Riviera. There is free parking outside, spots are limited though.

Review 35:Criticisms-lack of parking, no pool but not necessary if you have anice outdoor area which there isn'T. The standard room pics onbooking.com do not match the standard room we got - one chair at thedesk only no others for relaxing/sitting. Ok for 2 nights butnot longer.

Review 36:Clean, efficient and friendly staff and great breakfast.

Review 37:The room was very nice. Breakfast was great. But what set this place apart was the personnel at the front desk, especially Patrizia. Our luggage was lost on the flight from the US and we got to the hotel fairly upset. She calmed us down, and sent us with detailed instructions to the only store in town still open at that late hour to purchase some basic clothing. The next morning she spent almost an hour on the phone with the airlines. Finally, she provided great tips, instructions and maps to make our trip most enjoyable (even as the luggage showed up 2 days late). Thanks very much Patrizia.

Review 38:Great breakfast Nice location - not too crowded and in a beautiful town Modern and comfortable, unlike the majority of old and dodgy places in the other towns

Review 39:none

Review 40:Reception staff were helpful friendly and professional. Room was clean and spacious with river views. Central location near bars and restaurants, free parking on site for our motorcycle.

Review 41:None

Review 42:We got an early check in, upgraded to a suite and a free parking with the suite. We stayed in almost 8 different hotels during our holiday and this was one of the best stays. Millian was great at the reception and guided us well. The staff is very helpful and cooperative, we received great hospitality during our stay.wifi was very good and will definitely come back to stay here.

Review 43:Everything.. The staff were excellent , the breakfast superb, parking nearby,the room very comfortable.,it was everything you expect and are pleased to find when travelling .

Review 44:It was 30 deg.C outside and room air conditioner was not able to get temperature to comfortable level. Maintenance crew tried to resolve that problem but to no avail. I think the AC system is just to weak - no cool air was coming from the vents.

Review 45:Very good hotel in great location if you want to make day trips to Milan, Lake Como, Lake Maggiore. Staff very friendly, room was of great size and nicely furnished. Great breakfast with very efficient serving staff but especially Veronika, always with smile, was out of her way trying to make everybody happy.

Review 46:One male receptionist didn't like when I said I thought I had booked a twin room and if I wanted I could upgrade which I refused only to find room had 1 or2 problems which when I complained was duly moved to another room

Review 47:Staff in restaurant so helpful and friendly so too cleaning staff

Review 48:No iron + ironing board in the room, not even available for loan, they were pushy "we have a washing service that and your clothes will be ironed at the same time". That does not help much when I arrive late and just would like to iron a shirt for dinner. Also pushy on offering deals to their restaurant when checking in.

Review 49:Location, food, the local wine that were suggested to dinner. Good rooms.

Review 50:No parking provided from hotel (few places only, we were not lucky). Paring close to the hotel cost 15euro/day - relative expensive. Breakfast is just ok.

Review 51:I like this NH hotel net and this time I was not dissapointed. Very friendly and supportive personnel on reception. Nice clean room, fast wifi. Good price (was special offer). Relative close (5-10 min walking) to center of Lecco with lake side and markets.

Review 52:Location, lange room, everything easy, Friendly , and efficient staff. Breakfast lady not only spoke Italian. And she filled our thermos with coffee for our trip. Best beds since a long time travelling

Review 53:Some details need more attention : hot water in bathroom work with some problems, safe doen't work, no any water bottle free of charge. 3 euro for person of local tax is a legal steal, but it's not an hotel responsability, of course

Review 54:Breakfast is super and cleaness. Other are of middle level

Review 55:Staff is friendly and helpful,the room offers a view on the lake,is comfortable and tasteful, the breakfast offers lots of choice(would be nice to have at least one freshly squeeze juice option rather than different concentrate)

Review 56:Bar closed early.. we got there at 00.45am and would have loved a glass of wine before bed...

Review 57:Night staff was excellent, day staff was too. Breakfast is hard to beat.

Review 58:- Uncomfortably hot room overnight (heating was still on in the building, no room temperature control -- explanation was that they had to wait until Apr 15 to switch off heating and switch on air conditioning due to some council regulation) - Very slow free wifi, could barely load websites

Review 59:- Excellent breakfast - Clean, nice room

Review 60:Air condition really didn't droduce cool air at all, we had a trade off - get overheated or open the window and listen to a street noise, generated by car. Some lapms of a room lightning didn't work.

Review 61:Location, staff

Review 62:No such thing

Review 63:From check-in to check-out, everything was perfect!! Front desk staff, cleaning lady, manager, room, breakfast, WiFi, Location!! We traveled in Italy 2 weeks and been to 9 hotels, this was perfect 10. PARKING is FREE and EASY TO FIND around the hotel, so stop complaining in your reviews. Thank you for a great stay!!

Review 64:We booked a taxi though the hotel and it charged us €28 for a 4 km ride. When I complained to a lady at the front desk she called the taxi driver to ask why he charged this outrageous amount and he explained to her it was because there was a traffic jam between the railway station from which he had departed to the hotel (a 500 meter distance). The reception lady thought this was a good enough explanation and when I complained it isn't, she asked whether I thought they were taking a commission from the driver. Well... if she put it like that, yes indeed that is of course the impression. She was very upset about this and asked if I maybe also thought they were all mafia. Well,... there again, strangely that thought does appear. On the other hand, the man at the front desk was very pleasant. Breakfast was until 10 and even as the whole restaurant was still filled at that time, punctually at 10 they started to clear everything away. When we arrived at 1:30 the restaurant had closed for lunch, the bar was also closed, there was nothing to be had apart from in the room. Wifi is very slow (as usual in NH hotels).

Review 65:Room good. Breakfast OK. Price OK. The man at the front desk very good.

Review 66:Advertised room service was not available on request, 7:30 pm Friday evening. Bit of a walk, around 1 kilometer to rail station with bags.

Review 67:The staff were very helpful. Breakfast was good, plenty of choice. Very clean and comfortable room.

Review 68:the location in Lecco is great- the town is charming with good restaurants and shops and walking by the lake is stunning.. we paid a bit extra for a room overlooking the lake and this was definately worth it with a lovely balcony - breakfast was super and staff friendly

Review 69:- The bedroom supposed to have a view on the lake of Como has no view on the lake of Como, but view on the river Adda, which links the lake of Como to the lake of Garlate.

Review 70:- Staff availability - Breakfast

Review 71:Nothing to dislike

Review 72:I have stayed here en route to and from Livigno to airports in Milan on five occasions. The reception is always very friendly and welcoming. The selection at breakfast is excellent too. A very comfortable conveniently located value for money hotel.

Review 73:No complaints I have stayed there before and will stay there again.

Review 74:The hotel was well situated only 10-15 minute walk from station by the river and an easy 8-10 minutes or so walk from centre of town. Check in was quick and efficient the staff were friendly, efficient and helpful. Included breakfast was well prepared and the fresh range of options was good - few hot but most typical continental cold type choices. I did have dinner there too it was convenient with excellent service - there are also numerous choices for dinner in and around the town centre and lake front area. Rail service from Malpensa Airport to Milan Central (45 mins) then change trains for 40 minute train ride to Lecco.

Review 75:It was cold at night and the climatization was not working on heating. The reason was that the local authorities did not give permision for . . . . heating.

Review 76:The room looked over Lake Como which was a bonus, staff were friendly and helpful, food was extremely good. Located near to shops and local restaurant was great.

Review 77:For the first couple of days we did not have hot water in the bathroom , we complained and the third day just when we were going to be moved to another room the hot water came. WIFI very poor . No parking available in the hotel but down the road there is a public paying parking . Not a typical NH category

Review 78:Breakfast was good, staff friendly

Review 79:Honestly, it's very hard to find something which I did not like in this hotel!

Review 80:5 mins walking distance from Lecco Railway Station which is your gateway to other places you wish to visit like Bellagio, Varenna, Menaggio and many others. Shopping is very near too. Via Roma and Centro Meridiana are within minutes away. The hotel restaurant food and staff were just great! A hotel which I would surely recommend.

Review 81:Our bed was old therefore we had backache in the morning. There were some strange noise from the bad in the evening.

Review 82:Location, breakfast, price was very good. Parkhouse costs extra but they have a special deal with them. Employees of the hotel are helpful and friendly.

Review 83:Wi-fi strength could have been better.

Review 84:Everyone was helpful and cheerful. We interacted more with Michele who was an excellent professional (I'd hire him in my hotel). It was my girlfriends birthday and when we got back to the hotel that day, it was a great surprise to see a birthday cake and a letter from the entire staff and the general manager Anna Maria. The room was excellent and as clean and comfortable as it gets. What more can one except from his stay? Thank you all! You are the best! Keep on offering great hospitality.

Review 85:We agreed to have a meal on the first night. For 26 euros the meal was extremely over priced, and the steak we had was not particularly very nice. It was served with vegetables, but the amount was very small. Certainly not worth the money. We did not have an evening meal at the Hotel after that.

Review 86:Location of Hotel was very good. Reception staff and cleaners very nice and helpful. Breakfast was excellent, and the young lady who was on duty doing the breakfasts performed her duties extremely well, and should be congratulated.

Review 87:Only one downside was the parking situation. They have a small strip of free parking out down the side of the hotel. But it was all full. I dashed in to ask the reception about the parking options... they were helpful but their suggestion of "waiting" for a space to become available seemed like it could be a waste of precious time. There was a garage for 15 euro a day. Don't think it was owned by the hotel. Free road parking was hard to find elsewhere. We found something eventually a few minute walk from the hotel. The hotel was absolutely great so the only way it could be improved really is by having more of their own free, or even reasonably price (e.g. cheaper than 15 euro a day) parking. Overall, not a major negative though.

Review 88:They upgraded our room for free to a Junior suite. It was fantastic. Perfect night's sleep after a nice shower. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Great value. We also ate in the hotel restaurant and thought the food was very good too. Would recommend very highly.

Review 89:Very limited parking capabilities, slow wi-fi, hotel requires internal cosmetic repairs (wall scratches, shower mixer).

Review 90:Good breakfast, baby stuff provided (pencils, drawing block, juices, hot milk etc.), nice dinners accompanied with good wines for a reasonable price, friendly personal at reception, roomy and quiet junior suite with lake view.

Review 91:I loved the walk along the lake bank,until it ended and had to go via the streets(nothing to do with the hotel of course).No bad points about the hotel.

Review 92:From the receptionist to the waiter / barman ,cleaning staff they were all very polite curteous and friendly towards us.Excellent staff training.Keep up the good work.Rooms clean and lovely facillities.

Review 93:Maybe due to the holiday season there was no one to help us with the bags

Review 94:Location was great, the view of the lake is amazing, the staff were very kind and helpful, a nice breakfast and nice welcome from the hotel

Review 95:Parking was near impossible . if you did not get one of the few spots, you were left to try to figure it out on your own. the lobby seemed recently remodeled, but the outside patio was bare and the rooms need a facelift. they looked like they were from the 70's. also the rooms were very small.

Review 96:location was great. we were on the river/lake and we were in walking distance to the heart of lecco. Breakfast was very big and tasty. the staff was very friendly and helpful.

Review 97:The welcoming from the reception staff was great, thanks to Patrizia for giving us robust information about the lake, the area and the advice for visiting Bellagio and keeping ourselves entrained. We will come back again!

Review 98:Wasn't in the heart of Lecco, but still only a 10 minute walk away.

Review 99:The staff at the hotel were very accommodating for my wife and 18 month year old in particular. Location was beautiful along side the river linking two lakes and breakfast was nice.

Review 100:Nothing all very good

Review 101:Everything very nice room quite Breakfast good with plenty of choice of food free wifi and good connection all over the hotel jus a 10 min walk to the center of Lecco

Review 102:There was nothing to dislike.

Review 103:The staff - courteous, friendly and helpful. The breakfasts - great choice, a 3 hour window, excellent quality and huge quantities. The room - spacious, quiet, clean, well equipped with a nice private terrace. The location - 10 mins walk into the town centre and to the train and bus station, beside the lake yet a quiet spot. The price - excellent value for money.

Review 104:The hotel is not at a great location and is really old. When we arrived we were socked and we try to cancel but we couldn't. The breakfast is medium the service is so and so. Nothing great. I would never stay there again.

Review 105:Nothing special

Review 106:Our only problem was the slow check the staff where In no rush

Review 107:Great location, the rooms where large and well equipped the breakfast was outstanding! Well worth staying there!

Review 108:My wife and I are budget travelers; we are not used to the degree of care that the staff put into EVERY aspect of this hotel. From the awesome breakfast spread (individual panna cotta with your choice of fruit topping...I went for kiwi!), to the shine on the green marble countertop in the bathroom, everything at the hotel was absolutely first-rate. Super-friendly front desk staff (fluent in English and able to help us plan bus routes through the city) and THE MOST COMFORTABLE HOTEL BEDS...EVER. Just great. We'll be back!

Review 109:There are no tea/ coffee facilities in the rooms, and the tea/ coffee machine in the restaurant is only available at breakfast time.

Review 110:Location is nice, city center is 10 minutes away by foot. Staff is very helpful and friendly.

Review 111:Yeah, it is a big "business" hotel.. But it's nice and clean and the bed was super comfortable. I read lots of complaint about the wifi not being free.. But if you just want to get online to check emails and it's fine... Really if you are trying to download big files maybe you should be paying for it. Anyway it was nice. And lecco is amazing and if you have time and the nerve drive to belagio and varenna... Amazeballs!! Also breaky was free! Winning.

Review 112:Not exactly a problem, but the TV in the room was a classic CRT television. Sometime the hotel will need to equip all rooms with flat screen TVs. Again, not a problem for us at all.

Review 113:Location, breakfast, spacious classy hotel, our room was big and comfortable, exactly as advertised, free parking on the street (we parked safely in front of Barclays bank which had CCTV cameras coverage) about 05-30 meters away. Five to ten minutes walking to the center of Lecco. Very good choice, good value for money, definitely recommended.

Review 114:Better to improve menu in the restaurant for dinner for more variation and selection

Review 115:Beautiful location, friendly and compression staffs. Nice view, good access to the center.

Review 116:As expected in a chain hotel, everything was of a good standard but a bit clinical and maybe not entirely fitting with a town like this.

Review 117:Clean, spacious room with a good bed, not too soft, but comfortable enough. Reasonably affordable for a hotel 10m from the lake. Good breakfast, nicely airconditioned room.

Review 118:Were upgraded to a room with a view of the lake, which was wonderful! Cannot fault anything about this hotel. Even the cleaning staff were lovely!

Review 119:There was some rain in our room because the air conditioning, but we could change the room and everything was fine. Swimming pool would be nice at this big hotel. Lack of parking spaces was a problem too.

Review 120:Clean rooms, great breakfast. Helpful staff.

Review 121:- the hotel did not have any private parking place. We had to park in the public parking lots. Also the public parking lits around the hotel were limited. Evefytime we had ti search for parking. - the room temp. Was high. The air condition did not help. - we booked a room with lake view. But actually the view from the room was not spactacular.

Review 122:- location was great . Close to center - staff were very kind and helpfull

Review 123:- Parking of the hotel is too small and used maily by locals.

Review 124:- Clean, modern Hotel with a very friendly staff. - Restaurant and breakfast are good - Free parking (if you find a place).

Review 125:Rooms were tired worn out and need redecorating. Had a musty smell to the rooms. Also a 19 inch tube tv. 4 star hotels are supposed to have flat screens by now in 2014

Review 126:Lobby area was nice and breakfast was good

Review 127:-Be warned, this hotel is not in Como, it is in Lecco.

Review 128:Everything was awesome. Clean, amazing breakfast and even lake views from our room. 3 minute walk into the main town of Lecco.

Review 129:Very nice hotel, all staff were very pleasant especially Mr. Nader and Miss Ylenia, me and my family had a very pleasant time in lecco because this hotel. Thanks to NH Pontevecchio.

Review 130:Very good and diverse breakfast. On Sunday we were allowed to have breakfast till 12pm and to check out till 3pm.

Review 131:The wifi was a bit slow.

Review 132:Very good breakfast and a big variety. The staff was busy keeping everything available and full!
