Lake Como Beach Hostel

Guests praise the friendly and helpful staff, exceptional hospitality, and scenic lakefront location with easy beach access. Rooms are clean and well-equipped, but some may find dorm rooms crowded.

I would give this place five stars for the enjoyable stay, but I have to take one star off for the wobbling bunk beds. Investing in some solid wooden bunks would really improve the experience and ensure travellers get a good night's sleep. I've stayed in hostels in Sweden and Slovenia with outstanding beds, so I know it’s possible! Overall, I still really enjoyed my time here. I wouldn’t recommend booking a dormitory room here unless you’re okay with late-night noise and wobbling beds. I stayed for two nights and struggled to sleep at all. Plus, using the bathroom in the early morning was a challenge, as I felt terrible waking up those on the lower bunks. If you value your rest, consider a private room instead! Check out P&L Bike Rental! I took a bike along the red route, which offers flat terrain amidst beautiful rural Italian scenery. The ride was refreshing, and the views were stunning. It’s a perfect way to explore the countryside—highly recommended! This hostel was our first stop on our Italy trip. After visiting Milano, Varenna, Bellagio, Tirano, and Bergamo, I can confidently say it has the best Aperol and Corretto coffee! We also ordered a delicious buffalo pizza. If I return to Como, it would definitely be for those drinks and the delicious pizza! Highly recommend! We stayed in a dormitory room and forgot to bring our own locker locks, which was quite inconvenient. It made carrying our wallets around a hassle. I’d recommend bringing a lock if you plan to stay here to keep your belongings secure!

Mold on the wall, dirty toilet etc. We didn’t even want to shower, because the room was so dirty.
