We had a pleasant two night stay at the Hotel Plinius in October and loved its central location. We arrived by train from Milan so had just a short walk to the hotel. The room was small but we were expecting that and it was by no means a problem as there was plenty of storage space to keep our... More

it's very central. good value. clean. the room is smaller than average. we only had one pillow each on the first day and it was a bit low. think the cleaner noticed that we folded up the pillow for the first night and gave us extra ones on the 2nd day which is quite sweet. they have free wifi :)...

Good central location, and close to the train station too. Good sized modern room and bathroom too. This was the best 3-star hotel we stayed at in all of Italy for our 2 week vacation.

I stayed at this hotel for two nights and I was pleased with it. The hotel is a 10-15 minute walk from Giovanni station and a few minutes' walk from the lake and the main square. The room is on the small size and the bathroom was large considering the size of the room. In order for the air conditioning... More

We stayed at Plinius at the end of our 18 day trip around Italy. We were there for 4 nights. The hotel is in a good location, it is clean, the staff seemed friendly and helpful. However, the rooms are quite small and the air conditioning in our room was not working properly. We asked about it several times and... More

The hotel has an excellent location. the roooms are abit on the small side. the hotel web site is ait misleading as some of the pictures are not of the hotel but in the surrounding area. We stayed for 1 night and it was adequate. We had not been to Como before, so if we return we would book other... More

Como Lake (Lago di Como) was our (me & my wife) third step of our trip in Italy, after Rome and Florence. Hotel Plinius where we spent 5 nights, is one of the small, clean and well placed hotels in Como. The stuff is young and very helpfull. But kowledge of foreign language is a common problem in Italy i... More
