The hotel is really beautiful, the views are stunning just as you can see in the pictures. Totally recommend the breakfast! It was very good, with a lot of options and the restaurant has views to the lake.
Located in the little historic village of Brunate, on a hillside overlooking the city of Como, the Vista Lago features spectacular views of the lake and the Italian Alps.

Chiara was super helpful, she is amazing and super kind and was always making sure we were comfortable and ready to help. Mariana also made our stay amazing, she welcomed us and explained everything thoroughly. Breakfast was generous in quantity and quality. The rooms were comfortable, spacious, clean, and with an amazing view. The town gets extremely silent at night which is always nice.
Ristorante Hotel Falchetto is in set at the top of the hill in Brunate, a 15-minute walk from the cable car to Como and the shores of Lake Como. It offers rooms with free Wi-Fi and views of the lake.

Brunate is a great way to stay above Como and more suitable for families or couples that seek peace and tranquility.
There is a cafe surving drinks and snacks with a FAB view point
Walk to the lighthouse
FAB views of Lake Como!
Funicolcare is great fun
I went on the ferry to Villa Carlotta I left Brunate at 8.30am and took the Ferry at 10am.
It is 2 hours to Villa Caroltta on the lake but it is FAB with beautiful views.
There are various stops along the lake, Double check your return journey as I missed the boat back, There is a bus it takes about 45 minutes and get a ticket from the newsagent down the road for 5 euros, There is a stop by the ferry stop and one outside the newsagent.
With your back to the ferry stop you will see the Como bus Fermata across the road. And turn left from the ferry stop for the newsagent there are shops/cafe here too.
There are FAB resturants in Como. My husband enjoyed the one on the sea front near the ferry stop it served delicious sea food!

A small town overlooking Como's surroundings.
A small town overlooking Como's surroundings. A place to stay to enjoy the coolness of altitude during summer ! The quietness and seclusion, while never being far away from means of transportation (FUNICOLARE) and shops.

Nothing of interest here really.
Nothing of interest here really. Maybe the Volta lighthouse ? (Closed by the time we arrived, so couldn't really tell). Nice view over the lake (Villa d'Este a.o.) from up there. If you do want to come to Brunate, I strongly suggest you take the Funicular from Como for a short round trip. Coming here with a larger car is a bit of a nightmare, and spending the night here was a mistake, wish we'd stayed in Como.
The view! The view is incredible. We had the Lake-View Junior Suite. I highly recommend paying extra for the suite. We sat on the balcony every evening looking the city lights. The hotel is very close to the funicular so Como city is very easy to access. I loved that the hotel was away from the busy city. Atmosphere at the hotel was very calm. Also the hotel restaurant is very high quality.
The place is amazing. Up in the hills of Brunate you can leave your car and do everything using the feniculare at a walking distance. The place is quiet and the owner is really helpful. She shared tips about the region and served delicious breakfast (thank you for the clafouti). We will come back. Enjoy a visit of the well maintained gardens. Thank you for everything!
Most amazing view from restaurant patio of Lake Como end/end. The family run hotel provided very friendly/home service. It’s a bit hard to find, and I got lost on my way up and ended up back in town, but the owner, Roberto drove into Como, found me and escorted me back to the hotel. Food was amazing as well. Great value once you find it! 👍👍
This is such a beautiful and special place and Cristina and Massimo are so great and so helpful with recommendations and making you feel at home. The attention to detail in the design is perfect. Delicious breakfast. It was a bit of a trek to get up to Brunate from Como but so worth it. I hope to make it back here.
The host helped us by whatsapp with many suggestion and how to find the place, which is in brunate on top of a hill, with a view on the old city center. Very close to Como, it is also possible to reach the lake shore with a special train called "funicolare" which climbs straight up and down along the hill.
Easy and flexible access. Owner was helpful and available. Apartment was close to everything we needed in a quiet street. Nice view from balcony to the east. Adequately equipped for few day stays. We liked Brunate better than Como city. Nice surroundings and good starting point for hiking.
The best part of the stay was without a doubt the view, the hotel is located on top of a hill higher than clouds but the road up there from Como is half an hour of crazy turns where only one car can pass, so book only if you are up to that drive. The staff were quite nice.
Our stay was interrupted by news of a workers' strike at the Funicular Como-Brunate which caused us to leave the hotel at 7.30am before the said strike was to start. The strike was called off the last minute.
Perfect location for a visit to Como. Close enough with beautiful views from the hillside. The apartment was spacious and clean. The hostess communicated well and made sure that all questions were addressed.
We loved the peace and tranquility of Brunate. We parked the car up for the week and used the funicular to get to and from Como, jeep ride to the lighthouse and our legs!!
Very nice view, lake Como is below and you can see Alps up to Monte Rosa! The restaurant is right below, where we had lunch. Brunato and the funicular is 10 minutes walk.
Great stay, unique experience, perfect location offering a nice view on Como. The hosts are very helpful and guided us to the house when we arrived to Brunate.
