My wife and I had a wonderful weeklong stay at Hotel Albavilla. It was a business trip with some sightseeing opportunities. The location was convienent for my work and visits to Como, Milan, Bergamo and local towns and villages; a true exposure to Italian culture, especially during non-tourist season. Our room was comfortable and clean, shower was a bit small but nothing that spoiled our time; and the exercise room was top noch with a tremendous view of the mountains. The resturant was exceptional - Enrico runs a first class operation from the service and the delicious and flavorful foods, to the attention to details for breakfast and dinner; nothing but good things to say. And Samantha and Francesca were friendly and most helpful during out time providing great advice and guidance for our daily adventures. We look forward to visiting again as my business travels warrant.

We booked a suite at the end of the hallway. We thought it would be quiet. But no because people use the emergency door as an exit to the parking. The problem was that the suitcases made so much noise in the morning on the metal bridge we wake up too early. We had to change room because the manager cannot avoid people using this emergency exit. (strange as themselves opened the doors ?!) So we had a downgrade of rooms. Finally they compensated only one night without consulting us. Also the breakfast is really basic. No dark bread, no orange juice, only pineapple juice.

Chosen by a tour company, this place is remote. Check in was shambolic. No WiFi password on hand. Grudgingly given by reception. Info pack states that tea/coffee making in all rooms."Not on your room" I was told. A/C not operating. I could go on, but what's the point. Totally incompetent. Next morning, 80% of our group had to have a cold shower. The Manager was "too busy trying to rectify the situation" to answer any of our concerns.

Smart, clean and comfortable at a reasonable price. Good size room and bathroom. Excellent breakfast included and also a good evening meal in the restaurant. Also went to two excellent pizzarias in Alberville.
Well located for a short drive into Como where we easily found convenient city centre parking.
Take a ride up the Como-Brunate funicular for stunning views of the city and lake.
A lot of construction on the lakefront just now. New promenade and ferry berths.
Drove up through the mountains from Alberville and down the other side to Bellagio but couldn't get near the place. Cars parked bumper to bumper along the side of the road for miles. Turned around and drove the lakeside road all the way back to Como - stunning drive !

The hotel is a 7/10. The rooms are okay, the location is good (not far from Como and 45 minutes to Bellagio. At our stay we always had a high class and delicious dinner. Particularly noteworthy is the friendly staff and the waiters Ernesto and Marco.

I am very happy after our 2 days of holiday in Albavilla Hotel.
The environment is just perfect for couples or families.
Samanta from the front desk was extreamly helpful with her advices, politeness and good attitude toward us.
Enrico was also other person to mention. They were nice and collaborative since we arrived on Ferragosto and everything was close.
The hotel facilities are good, super view from the entrance to appreciate the nature.
We definitely recommend Albavilla!

Breakfast very poor, the Breakfast hall was not airconditioned, it was hot and uncomfortable. The selection is very poor and due to the heat the only cheese was glazy and tasteless, the yoghurt was warm, the fruit salad was bad and not cooled. By far the worst breakfast I had in Italy. As well the Hotel smelled constantly perfumed, got me a headache, why should one use room scents in a hotel Lobby and all the rest of the building.
This Hotel never again! : (
