It is a very nice 7 min pleasant walk to center square, and only 6 min to ferry boat station. Very quiet so can sleep in and the owner Roger is very nice, he even gave me 2 free glasses of wine just for talking to him.
I would stay here again

We had a very good time staying at this hotel. The room was very clean and included air condition. Nice breakfast and staff. Calm and nice neighborhood, close to centrum but very steep and many stairs but that is to count for when you live on a mountain. Would gladely stay there again.

Quick overnight in Menaggio
The hotel stay was just what we needed. A quick walk to the downtown area (via sidewalks and stairs). But watch our for the relatively steep walk back.
We had plenty of room, our car parked close, and a great view from our balcony. They have a great pool area as well. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

The staff were wonderful here.
The bedrooms are old but we knew that prior to coming and Menaggio is so spectacular we are only in room to sleep!
Rooms did have option of Netflix and prime which was great.
Breakfast delicious - continental with small amount of cooked food. Staff couldn’t be more helpful and polite, my children and I loved them.
We didn’t have a car and walked everywhere but you must have good level of fitness to do this as hotel up very steep hills with many (many) steps. Has car park though if you have a rental.
Gorgeous swimming pool and sunbed area.
Play park with football goals opposite hotel.
Loved it and will return
Thank you Sonenga ♥️

Basic hotel close to Menaggio city Square
There were ants on the Floor of the room and the furniture was very 80’s like. Also the walls and celings was very thin and you could easily hear your nabour. So very basic indeed.
But, the staff was very nice, but had a hard time understanding basic english.
The sourroundings and pool area was very nice and quite. The hotel is situated within 10 minuts walk of city square of Menaggio and the ferry port. But overall, compared to the Price level of hotels in Menaggio, it was very good.

The family room for 4 was in terrible condition. The drain in bath was choked, air conditioning didn’t work properly leading us to sleep in cold. The extended bed was uncomfortable. We had dinner in the accommodation which was fine. Overall not so good

Super clean and comfortable. Not fancy, but nice. Great and friendly service. Good breakfast. Nice pool area. It is a good 12 to 15 minute walk to town, uphill on the way back, but doable. Nice and quite hillside. Great for relaxing with a drink by the pool after exploring other areas of lake como!
