Reviews for Taverna Bleu

Review 1:VERY POOR value for money. Over the bath shower that you needed to hold above yourself as there was no place to hold it on the wall. No hot water on the morning that we left Constant noise of dogs barking during the night. We eventually left early without breakfast Breakfast didn't start until 8 o'clock Only one of the two radiators in the bedroom worked Restaurant excessively expensive and not a great selection Poor toiletries Tiny television Nothing in the minibar other than water Disposable plastic cups Hotel make a 10 euro charge to use their carpark

Review 2:Excellent position Fantastic views Nice bedlinen

Review 3:There was nothing bad, but it would have been nice if the bar had been open in the Hotel on the Monday.

Review 4:The location was superb - right on the edge of lake and the room was very elegantly furnished. The photos of the Hotel and it's location do not do it justice. The views were wonderful and it was brilliant to catch the ferry to Bellagio right outside the Hotel. There was also a friendly little local bar just along the road.

Review 5:The restaurant is overpriced and unimaginative, so therefore underused and lacking in atmosphere.

Review 6:A very comfortable and attractive hotel in a stunning location. The lakeside views are superb, and the staff are friendly and helpful.

Review 7:The restaurant was closed the night we arrived (Tuesday) but so what, there are plenty of others to try.

Review 8:It's impossible to highlight 1 particular thing. Everything was great: the location, the staff - everything.

Review 9:The location was somewhat removed from restaurants and shopping.

Review 10:The facilities were excellent with a gorgeous view of Lake Como from our terrace. Staff was very friendly and quite helpful - always ready to go the extra mile to provide information and schedules for us.

Review 11:Our room didn't have proper curtains which meant sun woke us up. The restaurant here is expensive and we were a little disappointed. Wine list is ostentatious.

Review 12:Staff went out of their way to help us. Beautiful setting with fabulous outdoor area to sit in. Lovely room.

Review 13:I didn't find anything I didn't like !

Review 14:Lovely place to stay ! Gorgeous view from our room of lake como fantastic service ! Wish we could of stayed longer ! :-)))

Review 15:Dinner was not as good as expected but following complaint, cost of dish was deducted from bill - so good reaction / service

Review 16:Location, easy access to boats and secure parking

Review 17:To travel around though was a bit of a hassle as the village is not a regular stop on most ferries although when it does, it stops just steps from the Hotel! However, a combination of bus and ferry can get you around the hot spots of the lake.

Review 18:It was a beautiful restful stay with great views of the lake.

Review 19:Noisy apartment (the main street could be heard too loud from the bed at night) No curtain and no shower holder in the bathroom! 10€ parking for each night it's too expensive Breakfast was almost the same for the whole week we spent there

Review 20:The amazing views from the Terrasse where we had breakfast. The apartment was nice, clean and spacious. The staff was really nice and helpful

Review 21:Restaurant was a bit expensive, but good. Not much choice for kids food, but they did make up some pasta for them.

Review 22:Great location, peaceful, magical, friendly staff and great food.

Review 23:I don't think there was anything I didn't like.

Review 24:The hotel was at lake side which was lovely. Dinner was served out there. We were very late in arriving but there was no problem.

Review 25:I booked rooms due to very high guest rating despite negative reviews BUT unfortunately rooms were stuffy and need air conditioning or fan. Loud plumbing noises. Food in restaurant was not good - fish dish in restaurant left 3 of us feeling sick - also someone else's hair in found in duck but atleast we got an apology from the kitchen! Cold bacon and eggs at breakfast. Restaurant grossly over priced. €10 parking fee per day in hotels own off street car park unacceptable and also attitude of man at reception.

Review 26:Location of hotel - friendly lady at check-in

Review 27:Exquisite lake view. The property is right on the waterfront, and the ferry stops right at the hotel. Perfect peaceful lake experience in a very charming little village, walking distance to a number of very nice restaurants including the renowned Isola Comacina.

Review 28:Air conditioning would have been fabulous considering that it was extremely hot and humid. Poor bus service - always late.

Review 29:Location and beautiful views of Lake Como.

Review 30:Relative property of the floors of the bedroom and in particular of the bathroom... Poor isolation: on entend les occupoants des chambres voisines se doucher, se brosser les dents,...

Review 31:The excellent location and views over the lake and the village Le charme un peu desuet Le calme The staff

Review 32:The only reason I don't rate this hotel as a 9.5 or 10 is because the rooms don't have A.C. We were there in late July. The weather in Como is quite humid, and because of the way the rooms are built, the entire temperature and humidity gets captured inside the room making it very hard to sleep. Although I loved the property I would not stay here again during the summer season.

Review 33:Beautiful property with a nice garden and direct access to the lake.

Review 34:Leaving!

Review 35:Staff friendly. Location stunning, food divine. Even though this was a last minute booking they had purchased gluten free items for me. Excelkent

Review 36:The Hotel has no air condition and the weather was 38 degrees therefore the stay was a bit warm With the windows opened the traffic noise was to loud Italy is very expensive. Traffic is very bad, streets are a nightmare

Review 37:The Hotel, staff, surrounding are all excellent The food at the restaurant was exceptuanal good, but not cheap

Review 38:No airconditioning.

Review 39:It was a traditional hotel with friendly staff. We had a room with a view of the lake en this was wonderful. Breakfast was very good and for dinner we were given a table directly next to the lake.

Review 40:Location was wonderful with incredible views. Away from the tourist areas but ferry and restaurants accessed very easily. quality of food and drink was outstanding. welcome and service was second to none.

Review 41:Lack of friendliness of some of the staff. The price of a small beer. The lack of sound proofing in the rooms and a decent shower!

Review 42:The location was great with parking (at an extra charge). The welcome was very nice and happy to have an air-conditioned room. The restaurant was very nice, but the service a little slow and strange. Great location close to some very nice restaurants.

Review 43:small town, not easy to explore on foot (traffic) expensive to eat in the evening(although, value for money, what you get is good!) no airco

Review 44:Nice room, more like an appartment friendly staff nice breakfast and good kitchen

Review 45:No AC (+30c) in the room, no electric fan, it was really hot in the room. had to pay 10€ per day for parking... Should be included in the price of the room since there is no other option to park...

Review 46:View of lake como, breakfast with good choice, size of room, sala comacina ferry just outside the hotel.

Review 47:Our stay happened to coincide with a heatwave (39 degrees)which made the absence of Air Conditioning more apparent.

Review 48:The staff were excellent and very happy to arrange bookings or travel to any other part of the Lake. Service was quick for ordering drinks and food. On-site parking very helpful.

Review 49:Wifi didn't work. Very noisy at night. But most importantly no air conditioning on a very warm night. No fans either to circulate air = no sleep.

Review 50:Location was great right by the lake and has car parking.

Review 51:no airconditioning. As there was no air conditioning you had to have the windows open, however on the Friday & Saturday nights noise travels across the water from a disco.

Review 52:the lake views, good size room, excellent food at the restaurant.

Review 53:Not much walking from the hotel, as the road along the side of the lake is very narrow and busy with no pavement. The same went for cycling (unless you are very brave!) However, the ferry stops right next to the hotel so you can get to other places on the lake with ease.

Review 54:We had one of the two terrace rooms which was comfortable and clean with great views. Cala Comacina is a small village, but has a couple of excellent restaurants apart from the Taverna Bleu, so we could eat at a different place each evening.

Review 55:the reception is closed by night.You cannot arrive too late.The owner occurred to be very helpful and polite and he has waited for me.Thanks a lot!

Review 56:View was amazing!And this smell of jaśmin.

Review 57:Having to leave ......

Review 58:The view from our balcony- stunning. The upgrade to room with view and balcony- thank you! Staff friendly and polite, great restaurant, fab breakfast- what's not to love? We shall return when we have more time to savour its delights. Who needs a shower on the wall( see other reviews) when you have such an amazing view? I could have sat on the balcony all day and night just watching the lake.

Review 59:Staff very friendly, always ready and willing to help. Breakfast in the "sun room" was absolutely delightful with the vista of lake Como before your eyes. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable. Charles, Mexico and Arizona

Review 60:It was a bit difficult to find.Coffee in the room would have been nice and parking to be free for guests.

Review 61:Great location on the edge of Lake Como.The staff was all very friendly and efficient.Breakfast was very good and plentiful and the room very comfortable and great value for money.Parking wasnt a problem although not free.

Review 62:We booked double room and got a one bedroom studio, with balcony and a great view. Breakfast was included, basic but delicious. The coffee was good.

Review 63:10€ for parking

Review 64:The owner was very nice, we arrived quite late but he still organised us a table in the closest pizzeria, which was lovely. We woke up and the breakfast with the view over the lake was sooo beautiful, nice food! The stuff was very friendly! We definitely recommend this place and we come back for the summer!

Review 65:very loud rooms - if someone from an other room has a NORMAL conversation, you feel like they're siting next to you. One village more south or north you would have direct boats to "bigger" cities. unfortunately not from Sala Comacina

Review 66:very friendly staff, excellent food, good wine, nice view from the superior room (top floor), parking lot. no or very poor, WiFi access in the top floor - "top" you don't need to be connected in your holiday :)

Review 67:The location right on the sea shore of Lake Como! The breakfast was excellent, really tasty croissants and great coffee. The hotel and staff is relaxed and the place has a nice and homey feel to it.

Review 68:Beautiful location, friendly and very helpful staff, cozy room. Excellent value included a great breakfast. Dinner was pricey - but we would return here again.

Review 69:a few corners cut in the rooms ie not a proper shower extension over the bath. Could have been a better choice of cooked food at breakfast.

Review 70:the balcony and view were superb, the guy and girl in reception were lovely and he recommended a good restaurant nearby when we arrived late on our first night.

Review 71:Nothing

Review 72:Walking distance to everywhere if you like walking. Gorgeous views of the lake anď the activity going on first thing ovèr breakfast. Delightful bird life. Just a short distance to ferries skimming across to other towns taking in breathtaking views.

Review 73:The bath/shower leaked a lot of water onto the floor. It probably needs to be re-sealed. It would be good if there was a hook higher up on the wall to hold the shower hose in place otherwise you have to be careful as the shower screen isnt' long enough block splashes from shower.

Review 74:Beautiful location! This place is just located half way up the west side of the lake just south of Lenno. We were upgraded from the loft to one of the rooms with a small balcony as we arrived at the end of the season. There is a wine bar within walking distance that we tried and liked. We rented a car to get here but probably could have done with out it as there is a train from Milan that gets into the main town of Como and from there you can catch a bus for around $3euros to the hotel. THere is also a ferry pier right next to the property which had a sign that said the ferry stop will be serviced in 2015. I cannot get over the view of this place. You have a beautiful private villa next door and you also have the Isla Comacina (island) on the opposite side. I'm the type of person who cannot sit still and here at this hotel all I wanted to do was just stare at the beautiful view. I could not get enough! Breakfast room has amazing view as well and the staff were accommodating. They let us have breakfast out on the terrace in the fresh air which is even better!

Review 75:one minor issue was that the toilet kept running - one of the staff came up and showed me the trick to get it to stop and it worked fine - I am sure they have it fixed by now

Review 76:Location was phenomenal - right on the water; hotel itself is beautiful, restaurant is Michelin rated, grounds are beautiful, parking is very convenient and reasonable, staff is great, rooms and bathrooms were beautiful - shower was the best I had on my 10 day Italy trip! I would stay again and highly recommend to others!

Review 77:There's only a few hotels around the lake having their own waterfront but this old villa is one of them. Imagine a nice view of the lake at breakfast or at sunset & sunrise. Rooms and furnitures have also a friendly ancient mood...

Review 78:My husband and I stayed for two nights in a Superior Room. The view and terrace were magical and the comfort and service superb. Loved the boutique size of Taberna Bleu, the ferry landing just below, the dining area, the garden, everything! Marie and Brian, Auckland, New Zealand.

Review 79:No wifi Not close to anything Can't really walk to anywhere as the roads are so narrow but that's not the motels fault.

Review 80:View Beautiful room Breakfast

Review 81:Very little... but.. How hard is it to put in a holder for the shower head so you can stand in the bath and have a shower! Some rooms have showers and no bath and ours had a bath with a hand held shower but they could have easily made it a proper shower over the bath.

Review 82:I loved this hotel. The location is superb. We had a top floor lake view bedroom with a small balcony. The room was very tasteful and pretty large. The view is amazing. We drove around a lot of lake como and honestly didn't see a view I would have preferred. I'm not sure why the main stock photo is taken in the fog! I almost cancelled this place as the photos didn't look great but I'm so glad that we didn't. Large free car park as well which is a bonus. Cant wait to go back.

Review 83:The bed is really not what is expected of such a high priceestablishment. The pillows was non-existent. The breakfast as mandaneand not worth the effort.

Review 84:Situated on the water edge, right by the lake ferry boat docking point.We had a terrace room, which was great. The staff was helpful withadvise and friendly.

Review 85:There was nothing to dislike.

Review 86:Everything. Couldn't ask for a better place to stay.walking right from Taverna and then down the little passages to the waterfront a number of small eating places. Catch bus C10 to Maggio from Como railway station tell driver Taverna Bleu at Sala Comacina.

Review 87:Steep stairs to loft rooms although the views from there were breathtaking. Restaurant closed on Tuesdays. Positives far outweigh these minor niggles.

Review 88:Stunning views. Very convenient for the ferry. Quiet and peaceful. Picturesque terrace. Good, varied breakfast. Helpful staff. Easy parking.

Review 89:Internet connection was almost non existent. the town itself does not offer much.

Review 90:port was right at the property, hotelier and staff were friendly and helpful. parking is available at the property. restaurant is at a good level.

Review 91:Not much going on in the village of Sala Comacina, but as long as you have a car, that's not a problem.

Review 92:Location - right on the lake with wonderful views. Breakfast out on the lakeside is heavenly - even if you have to have breakfast inside, the wonderful big windows provide a fabulous view. Very friendly and helpful staff. Impeccably maintained and very clean. Large private car park.

Review 93:Bathroom was a bit dated, hotel bar was very expensive (8 Euros for asmall bottle of beer), restaurant menu was limited and the prices high,so we chose to eat elsewhere. Breakfast was basic and we had to askthree times for some milk. Nearest village is 20 minutes walk away, nopavements and the roads are very narrow and busy - you really need a carto stay here.

Review 94:Fabulous lake views, ample parking, nice big rooms, clean andcomfortable, free wi-fi with good connection, room rates reasonable

Review 95:They had some problems with wifi but that is the only negative.

Review 96:Everything was great. Stunning property, highly attentive staff, fabulous service, excellent food and wine. Exceptional value for money. Would be willing to pay even more. We loved it! Can't wait to come back.

Review 97:Nothing.

Review 98:Loved the easy location and the 'private' jetty. Friendly informative staff and breakfast under the trees right by the water. We booked it off the internet and it far exceeded our expectations.

Review 99:Drinks and food are overpriced. A small bottle of beer for €8 is way over the top. Wine in the restaurant is ok, but starts around €40 for a bottle. The restaurant food is fine, but not exceptional. I'd expect more from a €20 appetiser or €26 small main course.

Review 100:Beautiful location right at the Como lake. Terrace and rooms have nice views. Attentive and friendly staff. Parking at the hotel premises (parking is difficult around the lake!). Quiet surroundings.

Review 101:We found Raverna Bleu at short notice on booking . com when desperately seeking somewhere late in the evening. Very friendly reception. High quality room. Right in edge of lake. Lovely gardens. Lovely breakfast. Super!!

Review 102:My room didn't have a shower although my kids room did (I think each room is different so travelers need to check fine details). Restaurant was overpriced for lunch service. With such a great view I was surprised that their were no lounge chairs available where one could relax and have a glass of wine and take it all in.

Review 103:The location of the hotel was awesome. Lake Como is beautiful and our room provided a great coastline vista. The service overall was great in particular the breakfast service. Staff was friendly and helpful - can't stress that enough. Plenty of parking available.

Review 104:Beautiful scenery, fantastic food and very nice hotel. Do not be discouraged by only three stars. This hotel is beyond four stars. The food is touching five stars!

Review 105:Because the boat launch was a small one it has very limited times to take and return. Also the road to resort are very narrow and winding- difficult for American drivers.

Review 106:The views were spectacular!!!!! Boat launch is right in front.

Review 107:We had the most amazing dinner sat outside on the Terrace, overlooking Lake Como with superb service and an excellent bottle of local wine made by Monks.

Review 108:Not one thing.

Review 109:Beautiful view of the lake from our balcony. The room was so pretty and rather large (for Europe) with a great big bathroom. Bed was super comfy. Staff was really nice. Breakfast great. Loved this place. Easy parking, too.

Review 110:excellent car parking facilities
