i traveled here with 2 girlfriends of mine. we actually forgot to confirm the room, unintentionally. however, not only did we get a room, but the best one in the place. breakfast was decent. room was excellent. only complaint was the church bell ringing at 7:30 am. good location, although a bit hard to find from the road. more

Como is a beutiful city with many hotels. Quarcino is tucked away in a quiet place, about two blocks from the lake, on the east side of the main attractions. It is a quick walk to the old town and to the Ferr. Nord train station. The hotel is behind an old church that does make use of its bells... more

I was actually looking up this hotel in order to recommend it to a friend that was travelling to the region and wanted a place to stay on a budget. I was saddened by even teh few bad reviews that this place had received. There is no better place than this in much of Italy. And, for the price you... more

My wife, son (6 month old) and I stayed at the Quarcino right around the end of May and beginning of June 2008. The accommodations and the included breakfast were very good for a budget hotel. The room was a good size, as was the bathroom, and both were very clean and comfortable. My wife and I found the hotel... more

Where do I start...... First, the owners were terribly rude! Second the beds were rock hard and the towels were like sheets! Third the breakfast was awful - just bread and juice. Fourth, it was very noisy; the walls are paper thin and there is church right next door with a loud bell. On a positive note it was a... more
