I am looking forward to travelling to Lake Como soon. This will be my third JustYou holiday, all in Italy, and I had a wonderful time on both occasions.  However, on both previous holidays, I was disappointed with the standard of the room I was allocated at the hotel. After some negotiation with reception, I was upgraded (at a cost).

Some of the reviews of the Britannia Hotel in Como are poor - particularly the rooms, so I am anticipating that I'll have the same issue. Would you advise that I contact the hotel directly, in advance, to check on what's available?

Many thanks 🙂

Apologies for the delay in responding.

At the Britannia Hotel We make sure that all our rooms have a balcony and lake view so that customers can sitt outside and enjoy the beautiful views, the main reason we use this hotel is because of its position on the lake just in front of Bellagio.

You can eat in different restaurants and enjoy a variety of food and there is a choice of bars.

They also have a great floating pool!

Standard rooms are simple but have air-conditioning hairdryer, minibar, ceiling fan, flat-screen satellite TV.

Our concierge team can contact you to see if we can upgrade you before travelling if you would like? We would need to request the room with the hotel and then their will be a supplement to pay, but we should be able to do this for you.

Thanks,

Hi FormbyP

I stayed here in May and my room was fine, overlooked the lake and had a balcony, and high enough up, floor 6, not to get much road noise, although it is quiet at night.  Apart from the fact that the a/c had not been switched - too early - the ceiling fan worked OK once you fathomed out which switch it was.  If you get the chance, do have lunch at the Lido just across the road, it is part of the holiday, and the food and whole experience in the Lido is just great.
