Now a little on accommodations at Lake Como. I like to stay on the Malgrate and Lecco part of the "Y". It has a quiet vibe with beautiful views. I have stayed at the Clarion Collection Hotel Griso in the past. This hotel sits up the hill from the lake with beautiful views of the lake, Lecco and the Alps. Each room is a suite with a large terrace facing the lake. We really enjoyed staying there.
This time I booked rooms at the Hotel Villa Giulia, Valmadrera on the same side of the lake. The hotel is about a mile further up the lake and sits right on the waters edge. Our room was a suite with a large terrace facing the water. Being closer to the water was nice and the restaurant has outside seating with a great view. In the mornings we had the breakfast buffet as we watch the wind and kite surfers play in the water. At night we brought wine out on the terrace as we relaxed and enjoyed the view of Lecco lit up at night. Dinner was exceptional as our waiter made the meal very enjoyable. Where the Hotel Griso is very good it has a chain feeling. The Villa Giulia has more of a family boutique feeling.
I would stay at either one. If you stay at the Villa Giulia make sure you ask for a room with a lake view.
