Reviews for Casa Del Portico

Review 1:Amazing place! We loved the place, and really enjoyed the room and its great views, as well as the home-made breakfast which included freshly picked berries from the property. The owners went above and beyond all our expectations and even drove us to a nearby restaurant so that we wouldn't get lost on our way there!

Review 2:The property is beautifully put together and maintained by its very creative owners. Breakfast is prepared with care, includes homemade jams, savoury tarts and cakes and is also artistically presented. The owners are charming and could not have been more helpful.

Review 9:our hosts, Alice & Georgio, were great. lots of good local knowledge. made us feel very welcome. The breakfasts! the best! Location was great with beautiful views. Lots of walking, which is what we wanted, so remember to take some good walking shoes but well worth the effort. easy to get to the ferries and other sites, restaurants, bars etc.

Review 10:Alice and her family are beautiful in every way. The breakfast they provide is spectacular, and changes every day. The grounds are stunning. The room we stayed in was cozy, and very tastefully decorated. Vary safe and convenient parking. Close enough to the ferry that goes all over the center of Lake Como.

Review 11:would not be able to come up with something

Review 14:lovely property, proprietors were lovely people and very helpful. Wonderful and convenient location for exploring the middle of the lake-

Review 15:We loved everything about our stay at this beautiful bed and breakfast. Alice and Giorgio are wonderful people. Delicious breakfasts are all homemade from their garden. The views are amazing! The suite was very comfortable and the air conditioning was a plus on those warm days. We can't wait to stay here again on our next trip to Lake Como!

Review 16:Have to be fit and well cause there is lots of stairs and hills if walking to dinner and getting to upstairs rooms in the heat because we were there in the high summer temperatures.

Alla prossima volta Cara Alice e Caro Giorgio! Ciao Gökhan

Review 22:Nothing!

Review 23:The room was beautiful and the host (Alice) was lovely and welcoming. Breakfast was superb, home made cakes and jams. The location was fab for reaching all of the main sights within walking distance of a ferry port. Located in a nice sleepy town with some super restaurants (recommended by Alice). Wish we had stayed longer than our 3 nights!

Review 24:The owners were very kind and caring, the beakfast was really great. The garden is splendid, the view - just great. We have received valuable hints about where we could walk, unfortunately it started raining quite heavily. Maybe the next time? :-)

Review 25:wifi connection in the bedroom was not always reliable

Review 26:great location in a quiet village, near the green walk way; yummy home-made breakfast; beautiful garden with sakura blossom, green lawn, and olive trees, perfect place to enjoy the lake and snow mountain view, or a private picnic among the olive trees overall great atmosphere, would love to go back

Review 27:Wish there had been better wifi in the room, but other than that, the stay was wonderful!

Review 28:The owner is so wonderful and accommodating! The B&B is absolutely beautiful, with a gorgeous view of the lake. Great location as well. Free parking. Short drive to Menaggio to catch the ferry. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we would very highly recommend this B&B!

Review 29:You need definitely a car in this area including getting to this hotel.

Review 30:Alice and her husband are extremely kind and busy to make your stay one you never forget. even the breakfasts should be ranked into the Guide Michelin as a start restaurant.

Review 31:Nothing actually. It was just perfect.

Review 32:Everything was designed for our comfort. The bed, sheets, bathroom, toiletries, heating, mechanism of the ceiling window, shower... There were many small details that made the hotel nice. All of them were perfect. Hotel was situated in a quiet part of lago di como, making our stay even more enjoyable. The garden was huge and had lovely olive trees. It was possible to picnic. Breakfast was magnificent. Alice prepared the best omlette ever! She baked great cakes, focaccias in the morning and prepared fresh fruit juices. Her handmade cappucinos tasted perfect. She and Gorgio helped us a lot with our daily plans, they made great suggestions. They even made reservations in restaurants for us. In the afternoon, it was possible to make coffee or tea down at the breakfast room. Parking was also ok.

Review 33:The food was excellent Super comfortable bed All the amenities included for a very comfortable stay Alice provided great information about the area for transport, walking, restaurants, etc... Felt very much 'at home'

Review 34:No negative points

Review 35:Fantastic attention provided by Alice Beautiful place and good location Fabulous deco and quality of the premises The breakfast was fantastic

Review 36:What an amazing stay! Alice treated us like a guest in her own home. All staff we very friendly and the grounds were kept very clean and tidy. The room itself was very clean and we felt we could relax and have one of the best nights sleeps we have had in a long time! Breakfast was incredible! Alice had made homemade breakfast treats and hands down beats any breakfast in a 5* hotel. I would highly recommend this B&B!

Review 37:Alice was very welcoming , friendly and helpful. The room was spotless, the whole place beautifully designed, the breakfasts were delicious. Alice is a wonderful cook and hostess. We would highly recommend it to others.

Review 38:nothing

Review 39:The owners are very friendly , the rooms are beautiful as is the view . The breakfast is out of this world ... the owner is cooking different things every day so, everything is sooo fresh and delicious . The house also has a great history...but I'll let you discover what it is.

Review 40:Beautifull location easy to walk to the lake and visit the other villages along the lake. The owners are very helpfull and their breakfast is very good. Everything is freshly made. if you want to visit the lake this is a good location to start.

Review 41:Extremely friendly and charming owners, really taking care even of all possible small details; English speaking; Private parking; Home made breakfast! A really beautiful and charming place with a very personal atmosphere - very recommended!!

Review 43:The WiFi could be better, you had to log in on different networks depending on where you are (breakfast room or your own room).

Review 53:Alice & Giorgio couldn't do enough for us to make our stay fantastic. Would highly recommend- the best hotel we have ever stayed in.

Review 54:The room looked really big on photo. The surface looked great. But we got a mezzanine room at the back. Make sure your rooms are on the lake side.

Review 61:A gorgeous place run by wonderful people. Cannot wait to come back again.

Review 62:great location, great views from the hotel. very peaceful. lovely terrace for breakfast, the home cooked breakfast & lovely fresh great coffee,

Review 63:Location not the best. A long walk to get anywhere.

Review 64:Wonderful welcome, beautiful accomodation, fabulous and unusual homemade breakfast dishes.

Review 65:The only negative was poor wifi reception due to the thickness of the villa's walls.

Review 66:The owner Alice was a delightful host. Sitting in her magnificent garden overlooking the beauty of Mezzegra and Lake Como eating her freshly baked breakfast offerings was bliss. It was a truly spectacular beginning to each day in this wonderful location. Our room was very well appointed and cleaned every day to maintain a very high standard. I would have no hesitation in recommending this B & B.

Review 67:Luckily we had a hire car as we would have struggled with the very, very steep walk up from the lake, restaurants, etc. Once at the gates of this property there is still a huge steep walk up to and then through the house and up more stairs to the rooms which we found quite challenging.

Review 68:You cannot fault the stunning views over Lake Como with the mountains behind when you are enjoying your delicious breakfast in the garden. Our room was spotlessly clean and comfortable with views over the lake.

Review 69:That I had to leave.

Review 70:The best place we stayed in Italy. All of the things that you want to be great are just that. Breakfast- tremendous. Room- comfortable, spacious and clean. Good value, great location, etc. But what sets Casa Del Portico apart, what makes it truly memorable, is the warmth of Alice and her family. Good people who do an exceptional job at making you feel welcome. An absolute no- brainer to stay here.

Review 71:Steep, grass walk to property or cobbled alley both not easy with heavy suitcases. Lack of sitting room. We were blessed with perfect weather so breakfast outdoors was fine but we wonder what happens in rain as inside servery would be too small to take more than four guests at a time

Review 72:Helpful, attentive owners, beautiful grounds and delicious breakfasts.

Review 73:We didn´t mind the walk to other villages in the evening, but if you want restaurants on your doorstep Mezzegra maybe isn´t for you.

Review 74:The casa is a beautiful old house that has been carefully restored and is surrounded by lovely gardens, just set back from the lake and with stunning views. Alice and her husband were very welcoming and recommended places to eat and visit. Excellent breakfast in the garden was the perfect start to the day. Would definitely go back.

Review 75:Everything was perfect. That is a typically Italian bed and breakfast. We could not have found a better place to explore the beauty of the Lake. Alice and her husband were also of a great help to enjoy the most of it. Stunning scenery and excellent Italian breakfast. All is home-made!

Review 76:The bed and breakfast was absolutely stunning, beautiful scenery, everyday different variety of breakfast. I stayed the night before my wedding and Alice who ran the bed and breakfast was so helpful and obliging with such a busy day with flowers arriving and hair and make up to be done. Very comfortable bed and breakfast. I would highly recommend staying at Casa del Portico.

Review 77:Nothing. Everything was outstanding.

Review 78:The owner - Alice - was warm,professional and very helpful. We highly recommend this place. No flaws. A 10 plus.

Review 79:Casa del portico was exceptional. This is the first time I have ever provided feedback on a hotel however it was one of the best places we have stayed in a long time. Staff were extremely friendly, rooms better than most hotels and the view incredible. Loved being in the quieter town of mezzegra, the best walk to the other great towns around. Couldn't recommend highly enough. Will most certainly stay there again.

Review 80:nothing!

Review 81:Alice and Giorgio were the perfect hosts, a great spot with history (Musolini's last nights sleep before his execution in the very same hotel). A generous and freshly prepared daily breakfast with little tasty variations throughout the stay. Well located for all local attractions. We will be back again a shame we had our trip cut short. Would recommend this B&B to anyone that wants a quiet spot with great views and location.

Review 82:Homemade breakfast on the terrace overlooking the lake and mountains, a comfy room. It's a fantastic base to explore Lake Como. We really enjoyed our stay!

Review 83:Everything!!! We are going to come back. The room was beautiful and cozy, the food just excellent, Alice and Giorgio are just perfect hosts! Thank you!!!

Review 84:This is one of the nicest places we have ever stayed in in Italy. The apartment we had was spacious and well-designed, with everything one could ever need for a short or even a longer stay. The owners - Alice&Giorgio, were very friendly and helpful. And if you want a treat, you should not skip the breakfast which is home made with wonderful fresh ingredients and an interesting twist. A true wonderland, we can't wait the summer to go back to Casa del Portico.

Review 85:The room although new and simple, didn't have a desk where we can have sometime at the computer, and there's no reception or no room where one can stay, so either we are in the room or there is nowhere to be. Also there is no full body mirror in the room! The room said lake view, and the view is through a small window. Overall I would say it is overpriced for what you get.

Review 86:The cleaning. The kindness. The bed was confortable.

Review 87:Amazing place,extremely beautiful very tastefully decorated. Breakfast is the best we had in Italy and the owner gave us lots of information about hiking around, the lake and other places of interest, restaurants and so forth. Ask for precise indications how to get there...Isabelle, Ramat Hasharon Israel

Review 88:Mezzegra is a great little town on the way to Menaggio, which has a top class Golf Course. The villa is situated about a 10 minute walk from the lake or a 2 minute drive. It is set on a large piece of land with great views. The rooms are new and very tastefully decorated. The apartments are spacious and the renovation has exposed the arched Porticoes, which are stunning. The villa has been in the same family for 2 centuries and is now run by daughter Alice and husband George. Breakfasts are amazing, huge choice and all home made. We highly recommend a stay here, although book early as they have people returning each year.

Review 89:Lovely family run B&B, great facilities and plenty to choose from at breakfast.

Review 90:We have appreciated very much the peaceful, landscape and attention of hosts (Alice very nice)

Review 91:Everything about it Best breakfast we had in Italy

Review 92:excellent, helpful owner. Breakfasts were superb with home-made treats
