Hotel ristorante Vapore - Faggeto Lario, Province of Como

It is a nice boutique hotel with a great view of the lake directly from your room window. The hosts are very friendly. The rooms are very tidy but the bathroom not so much. The only inconvenience are the steps that have to be claimbed to reach the main road/bus station.
A huge plus for the hotel is the ferry station at 200m from the reception if you choose this mean of transport.

The view deserves at least 3 stars for such an affordable price. We managed our expectation before arrival due to the reviews, and the reality was better than expected. The deluxe room with lake view is actually a family room with extra bed. The table and chairs set-up is suitable for relaxing drinks and snacks. There are three restaurants or bars in the area, without car it might be difficult to move around. The beach bar serves drinks and light meals as well as sunbeds. The hotel restaurant is ok. Breakfast is simple. The issues with the room are mainly smelly toilet and no soundproofing. Strongly suggest the owner to do some improvements with the toilet, as it is basic for accommodations, no matter how many stars. The hotel locates almost at the end of the street, so no busy traffic. If lucky, the surroundings are quiet, but fully depending on the neighbors. We happened to have one night that neighbor room woke up at 4:48 am and left. The lady was polite, whispering to her company, no soundproof means I could hear every single word. The other night there was thunder, and dogs barkings. Maybe earplugs would help. Well, the view heals anything.

Stopped here en route to Italy by car, very much off the beaten track. Nice location beside lake, peaceful. Pleasant and friendly welcome. good room with all facilities, bed very comfortable. Very good meal, good breakfast. Reaching hotel by car was a bit difficult, had to go through Como during rush hour and lakeside road to hotel was narrow and winding. Decor a little dated. Service in restaurant a little too formal, price of meal a little higher than we would have expected.

Fabulous location, hotel and bar,
Restaurant was unfortunately closed when we arrived in Tuesday.
Roads and bus access might not be to everyones preferences.
Lots of tight turns, hairpin bends and very narrow roads.
Very glad I was used to roads similar in Ireland
Beautiful location.
If you are a nervous driver or getting public transportation possibly worth getting the water taxi or ferry from Como

Quiet and peaceful hotel. The prices were very good. The rooms were lovely, recently renovated and comfortable. The views over the lake were outstanding. The staff were friendly, the breakfast was good. The restaurant was okay, a bit pricey. The location is lovely albeit quite remote.

The hotel is located in a quiet zone by the lake, so it's really peaceful here 😌 It's a half way from the center of Como and Bellagio - the must-visit quarter of Como.

The hotel has great views from every side, especially from the restaurant. And it has its owned parking spaces.

The staff were really nice and helpful. They welcomed us from the parking lot.

The rooms are spacious with full-equipped furniture like a mini fridge, large wardrobes, a TV 📺, a kitchen and large beds as well. The mattress is quite comfortable that is important for a good sleep 😴

The buffet breakfast was okay. I expected a little bit more. They had cereal, juice, tea, croissants, scrambled eggs, fruits and you can ask the waiters to make a hot cappuccino or an espresso for you too

Perfect hotel for a stay in Lake Como. Breakfast isn’t huge but the food is all very nice, there’s a small beach 2 minute walk away.

Rooms are clean and modern with a smart TV and a view over the lake.

Como is only 30 minutes away on the C30 bus, which is €2.60 per person.

The deluxe rooms are very pleasant en-suites with views over Lago di Como, and in one case featuring a private balcony. There can be some noise filtering through in the mornings from general outdoors bustle, so I'd recommend waking and starting your day a little earlier. There are combination shutters and blinds, allowing varying light and privacy levels.

Breakfast is continental, buffet style with a good variety from which to select. Lunch and supper likewise provide variety without being excessive or overwhelming, and are well prepared and tasty. The wine list is very pleasant and there are a number of grappas and stronger alcohols off the main menu.

Staff are friendly and helpful, and pretty cheerful as they go about things, although it doesn't hurt to have a splash of Italian for more in-depth questions you may have.

Excellent location near to the beach, the ferry and private hire boats, and walking routes up to the hills.
