Reviews for Il Grifo

Review 1:everything! we arrived late due to plane being delayed, called up to inform them that we would not be able to check in within the time specified and they were fine with it. The owner's daughter even met us at the bus stop to make sure we didn't miss the stop!

Review 2:No air con, no wifi in bedrooms.

Review 3:Short walk to central Lenno's restaurants and boat terminal. Very helpful staff, lovely breakfast, free car parking on site. There is a small pebbled beach at the bottom of the road, convenient for swimming.

Review 4:Well, I need to be near villla balbianello for a few nights, so I booked this room the same day i arrived with booking now app, because it was the cheapest and near Lenno. From the Lenno boat station its about 10-15 min walk, but there is one more boat station Campo just few min walk and the bus station is just 2 min walk. There is a nice trattoria and a hotel together. Owners were very friendly.

Review 5:My only complaint would be that breakfast wasn't great. It was croissants or toast and jam.

Review 6:Very friendly laid back staff, clean, comfortable and great value for money

Review 7:Really loud outside noise every single morning. However that wasn't the fault of the hotel.

Review 8:Room was really really clean! Great value for money and in a nice location. The owner waited around for us to check in even though it was gone midnight!

Review 9:The beds are a little incomfortable and no air conditioning, however that adds to the charming and authentic Italian experience!

Review 10:Antonio and his staff were so helpful and went the extra mile to make our experience as enjoyable as possible.

Review 11:Loved this authentic Italian experience. Alice was very helpful, great food, lovely clean and comfortable room, friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend.

Review 12:Nothing really..maybe breakfast but let's be honest I think that pertains to Italy in general. Don't expect an English breaky.

Review 13:Lovely little hotel. everything was great. Manager went out of his way to make our stay as pleasent as possible. Thank you;)

Review 14:no lake view

Review 15:Very nice and helpful stuff, clean rooms, if you come with the normal speedy boat from como you should get off one boat-stop before Lenno as the hotel is exactly there

Review 16:smokey bar entrance, outdated rooms and blankets (looking very differently than the picture posted). We found it okay value for money for the single-pers. room, but not for the double.

Review 17:location is excellent, we enjoyed the nice walking route to Lenno.
