Palace Hotel
The Palace Hotel had great staff and the breakfast was wonderful. The only unusual aspect was you had to go downstairs to iron your clothes but that seems to be the norm in Italian hotels .

B&B Hotel Como City Center
Good point; 1. The location was close to the train station (walkable). To be improved. 1. Unpleasant odor of the bath room. 2. Several big dents on the bathroom door.

Excellent breakfast choices and responsive staff. I lost my phone and the staff helped me communicate with someone who found it. The room had a magnificent view. We had dinner in the ristorante and the meal was creative and delicious. The staff are friendly and shared interesting information.
