![]() Give this hotel a try, I’m a traveler that doesn’t write reviews and gives feedback directly to the hotel or my agent and I felt compelled to write this as I am heading to the airport. Only 22 rooms and I barely heard anyone next to me or around me. If you want quiet, with access to many tourist spots, exceptional service, accommodations and food, this is your place. ![]() It is really hard to find this kind of travel experience these days and I would come back here over and over. This gem, with its additional famous family bakery is just 40 minutes from Milan and an hour from Lake Como. ![]() The room was very clean, and minimal as well as just perfect and lovely. I travel constantly, both for work and pleasure and have paid double for less of what I received here at the C Hotel. To have the whole spa to myself, enjoying the thermal pool and steam was outstanding. I had a private spa experience, which was so relaxing. They went out of there way on several occasions to accommodate anything I asked for and with pleasure. The service is over the top, as every member of the team wants to make sure you are happy, and well taken care of.

In addition, there were building works going on at the roof, which means building site noise from 7.30-8am onwards. I didn’t get offered a room upgrade, no complimentary breakfast was provided (€35 pp if paid in cash), and the cost of using the Spa is €25/pp per hour. As a Platinum member, my loyalty to Marriott wasn’t recognised. The daily room cleaning team was lovely and efficient, and left a nice little surprise every day which we loved (local juices, cookies, organic shampoo, chocolate). The hotel itself is beautiful, with a slick, minimalist design - we enjoyed a lovely check-in with Luca, had a wonderful room, and spent the days/ afternoons by the swimming pool. The location is good, we wanted to be within 45min of Lake Como, and we got it. We were looking forward to a relaxing 5 night stay (we paid with Marriott points which was an excellent deal BTW), but didn’t really see our expectations being fully met.
