B&B Casa Gentile met all of our needs for our stay in Como. It is clean, less than a 10-minute walk from the lake, and the host, Lidia, is incredible. She was very kind to us and even waited later than she normally would because we were having transportation problems. I highly recommend staying here.

Lidia was very welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. She was available to help with all our needs, including booking a lovely restaurant nearby. The bed was comfortable, and breakfast was superb. The location was perfect, peaceful (with parking), whilst being a short walk to the centre of town. Thank you very much. I would not hesitate to recommend Casa Gentile.

Casa Gentile is a really nice place to stay. The place is very relaxing due to a garden, there is a safe place to park and the rooms are beautiful. It is a short walk to the lake and the city center. Lidia is a wonderful, charming host. We love to come back every year and can only recommend Casa Gentile.

We were staying two nights at Casa Gentile and enjoying every minute! The lovely villa is situated close to the city center, but in a quiet area. The rooms are lovely decorated and the beds are very comfortable. Breakfast was utterly delicious with freshly made fruit salad, crispy bread with ham and cheese and self-made tarts - the best way to start the day, exploring the beautiful area of Como! Lidia, we thank you and your family once again for the extraordinary stay in your home. You're just the perfect host and we'll return with great pleasure!

We couldn't ask for more. We have been at B&B Casa Gentile for 3 nights, a couple + a 3-year-old child. In addition to a very good location, a clean and nice apartment to stay, Lidia, the owner of the house, was so kind and provided us with all the information we needed. It felt like we were at home.

We stayed here overnight on our way to Tuscany and were very sorry we couldn't stay longer. Lidia, is a very nice lady who was very helpful in helping us find our way in Como (it was our first time there). Her B&B did not steal its name! Moreover, the property is very beautiful and clean. The location of this beautiful house couldn't be more perfect. In a quiet area of Como, but only a 10-minute walk to both the lake and the historical center. Just about perfect. The breakfast is without a doubt one of the best we ever had in Italy. Very fresh and elaborate. With fresh fruit, pastries, great coffee, lovely bread, and above all a nice chat with the other guests and Lidia. In short, we were very glad we discovered this gem. We have found ourselves a 'fixed' stopover to the south. Although, truth be told, we hope to be able to stay a bit longer than just one night next time. Thank you, dear Lidia for having us.

A 5-minute walk from Como's Duomo, B&B Casa Gentile is located in a beautiful house surrounded by a garden where you can park your car. The place is perfectly quiet. Lidia's welcome is charming. She knows how to be present without imposing herself. The Rose room is very comfortable, with beautiful furniture and a neat decoration. Impeccable cleanliness. The breakfast is excellent, plentiful, and complete. With Lidia's advice on Como and its region, this B&B is perfect. Thank you.

The accommodation is top-notch! Lidia, the owner, is very very kind, provides great tips and assistance. During the lovingly prepared breakfast by Lidia, absolutely nothing was missing, everything was plentiful! The accommodation is located about a 5-minute walk from the old town center, very quiet, with its own parking and a great garden. All in all: always happy to come back and highly recommended! Thanks again to Lidia.

The B&B Casa Gentile is a very lovingly run small Bed & Breakfast, Lidia Bianchi Monti is an extremely friendly and helpful host who creates a relaxed atmosphere. I felt particularly comfortable in her home. The rooms, bathroom, and breakfast room are tastefully and individually furnished without being overloaded, and all the premises are exceptionally clean. The Casa Gentile is located in Lidia's private home. There is a beautiful garden and Como city center is only a few minutes away, so the location is perfect. I booked this accommodation, among other things, because it was described that all guests would have breakfast together at one table. And indeed, it was particularly nice, cheerful, and enriching. Lidia's breakfast is perfect: fine and very appetizing. Thank you again for the lovely stay.

The B&B Casa Gentile accommodation lives up to its name. The owner is extremely friendly and accommodating, making you feel comfortable right from the start. Breakfast at a large communal table allows for communication with the other guests. Even outside of breakfast, drinks are available free of charge. Our quiet room was very tastefully furnished, the beds and the bathroom were impeccable. We were only there for one night, but could also imagine a longer stay.

When the accommodation and its host become part of the experience. Lidia is a careful and caring hostess. She welcomes her guests and takes care of them throughout their stay. The B&B Casa Gentile is a five-minute walk from the center. It consists of three rooms and we stayed in the Rosa room with a private bathroom. The furnishings are elegant and the building, with its garden, is immersed in a timeless place just a stone's throw from the Duomo. The breakfast served in the dining room, as beautiful as Como and its lake are to explore, is the best part of the day. Croissants and bread come from a local bakery, Lidia prepares small sweets and fruit salad for each guest. The savory breakfast with scrambled eggs made on the spot is also excellent. After a day of sightseeing, we had the pleasure of meeting her husband Matteo, and the conversations with the hosts are polite and informal, making you want to return to visit them, even just to say hello if passing through the lake areas. Thank you for the passion with which you do your job.

The answer from the host:
Gentile Luca, Vi ringrazio con tutto il cuore per le belle parole che ha speso per il b&b e per noi. Ha colto perfettamente quali siano le motivazioni che ci sostengano: gli ospiti devono sentirsi a casa, coccolati e a loro agio. È stato un grande piacere ospitarvi e davvero, se passaste da queste parti, sarei felice di rivedervi sorseggiano insieme un bel caffè!

Family atmosphere, quiet and relaxing place, renovated and furnished spaces preserving the style of the late nineteenth-century building at best. Mrs. Lidia is the icing on the cake with her sympathy, professionalism, and cordiality. I can't wait to go back with my family instead of for work so I can enjoy this wonderful place even more.

B&B Casa Gentile: a very pleasant stay at Mrs. Lidia's house, welcoming and caring, in a beautiful room with a romantic flavor, neat and well taken care of. We really enjoyed the rich breakfasts with fresh pastries of the day. The convenient location allows a short walk to reach the historic center, the pier, and the places to eat in the evening. We had a really good time. Thank you and compliments to Mrs. Lidia and her family for their hospitality and see you soon, Simona and Renato.

Extremely welcoming facility, excellent for families with young children, as we experienced firsthand (we have two children aged 1 and 4). The kindness, availability, and hospitality of Mrs. Lidia exceed all expectations and ensure a quality experience. Excellent location just a few steps from the historic center but isolated from confusion and noise.

È stato un grande piacere ospitarla con la sua famiglia, grazie di cuore! Lidia.
