The two ladies at the accommodation were so helpful and kind, they were available for any questions we had! The room was more like a flat, great bed and bathroom but also had a full kitchen with every utensil you would need and seating inside and out to relax at. The host even did things like resupply coffee capsules daily which was a lovely touch. They also have really cute and friendly cats that will give you company while you’re sat outside if you want them to!:) Location was really good as it was a short walk from the main ferry route and therefore a total of 30mins to get to bellagio from the accommodation.
The quickest way to get down to the main road and therefore the ferry is down a steep staircase which is completely fine but if you’re unable to do that then you will just have to go down the main roads which is longer. Also nothing to do with the property but lots of mosquitoes around lake Como so bring bug spray.

The large double room was great. We were able to have breakfast there each day and the seating area meant the accommodation was more than just a bedroom.
We enjoyed being in the village with a great pizzeria and well stocked local shop for any supplies. The host Leanne is so helpful and kind. The location near the ferry port is very convenient for visiting the other towns in the lake.
Sometimes I didn't like the walk up the stairs up from the lake to the village!!

The location was a perfect base for exploring the rest of lake Como - 10 minute walk to the ferry and the bus stop was awesome.
The hosts were exceptionally helpful, and always responded when asked a question.
The room would definitely benefit from an air conditioner. We had a fan, and were told to keep all the shutters closed during the day which did keep the room moderately cool, but an AC would definitely help with the July heat

If you don’t like crowds of tourists and prefer quiet, peaceful places, you’ll enjoy it here. The room is spacious and very clean. There’s a beautiful, well-kept garden with flowers and fruit trees. The hostess is very kind, caring, and welcoming. Nearby, there’s an excellent pizzeria that’s popular with the locals. Be sure to take a walk through the center of Cadenabbia — I mean the upper part, with its narrow streets and unique atmosphere.
A little local tradition: you’ll wake up every morning at 7:30 to the sound of the church bells — it’s like a built-in wake-up call. Breakfast is available for an extra charge, but we were happy with just coffee. One thing to note is that there’s no air conditioning in the room, but there is a fan, and it was enough even on the hottest day (over 33°C).
The villa is located on a hill. You can walk up and down, but it might be a bit difficult for elderly people.
No air conditioning (and this is indicated in the description - air conditioning is not listed in the facilities), but there is a fan that helps a lot :-)

The studio was very spacious
Mountain view
Pizzeria La Torre San Martino nearby with amazing atmosphere, pizza and tiramisu
Host was extremely helpful
Griante is quieter than Varenna and Bellagio and feels more local which we really liked
Very easy access to ferries and buses
Very safe and beautiful area
I really liked everything, I would just say that probably stronger hair dryer would be useful and sponge in the kitchen. Nothing major.

We loved everything about this accommodation! The staff were great and very helpful. The hostess was very accommodating asking how everything was and gave us recommendations. The room was well equipped if you wanted to eat in. The outdoor area was lovely and all rooms had a private dining table. But my favourite was having the cats and turtles and dog who were around the place from time to time!
The extra paid breakfast was a little disappointing, the bread was a bit dry and the juice was a cordial. And the extra coffee was filter but there was an pod machine in the room. Would have preferred to pay a little bit more and have a nicer breakfast.

The location is good.
There was an awful smell in the apartment. We were told that previous guests used to cook something with spices and garlic and there is nothing that can be done. So we had to keep the windows opened despite the cold and rain.
It was really horrible and very annoying:((

Beautiful room and grounds with everything I could need. Lots of space and separate areas and a large table
It was a bit of a walk up a steep hill but I knew that as the price was very reasonable.
10.0 / 10.0
location is nicely up away from the busy Main Street though still very accessible by foot. Close to a nice pizza restaurant/bar and a little market.
Walls are a little thin so if you are a very light sleeper it may be tough but if that doesn’t bother you there are no negatives!

A very Italian style quaint home. The family is very welcoming and nice they are so helpful and allowing to use the facilities like picking the fruits.
Great location, a walk away from the fairy to bellagio and to a near quaint pizzeria.
The only problem is, that there is no breakfast included which kind of contradicts the name (B&B).

Casa Pini is well located in Griante, up a steep hill from Cadennabia (be prepared to walk up hills if you're not driving everywhere!). Michela, the host and owner, was friendly enough (as is her very characterful father).
The property is an old house up on the hill, and the rooms are accordingly nice but dated. There's a pleasant garden you can chill in if you want to, and Michela has lots of lovely pets (including a turtle!) that roam around the property.
All in all, it's a decent cheap (relative to other places in the locality and Lake Como region altogether), to use as a base for exploring. Note it is NOT a hotel that provides any luxury so don't book this is that's what you are looking for.
Three things:
1. Although we never mentioned it to Michela, given we were only there 3 or 4 nights, our bed was broken and very, very squeaky. This needs to be replaced, and I'm sure she would have had we mentioned it to her.
2. It's obviously really hot there over the summer, so be warned the rooms have no air-con. Don't book if you need this. The fan provided did very little.
3. The room we had contained a sweet little kitchenette however, although lots of kitchen utensils had been provided, it would have been helpful to also provide a few basics such as tea bags (there is a coffee machine with pods I think), salt, pepper, maybe sugar, that sort of thing.

The lady that runs the place is just amazing. She was so nice and friendly. She recommended to us nice places to have a pizza in Como. Also, we arrived late and she waited for us plus gave us some olive oil, salt and vinegar for our salad. It was really clean inside and it had all the amenities that you would need. There was even a garden table and chairs to have your dinner/breakfast in her garden. There is also a lovely dog on site that is just so friendly and cute. Thank you for making our stay special.

Nice big room, more like an appartment.
In a very quiet ans green area. The town has some restaurants with nice views. In the town itself there is not so much to see. You can take a boot or bus to travel to the other parts of the lake.
The owner has a sweet cat and dog.
The bed was making noise when we were moving in bed. So I woke up multiple times because of the noise.

Nothing.

Micaela is an excellent host! She has even offered us bottled water because we could not find any at that late hour when we arrived. Communication is great with her, she is really welcoming.
The room we stayed in had one large double bed and one single bed, a kitchinetta and a sofa. Basically everything you would neex for a nice stay. Outside each room there were tables and chairs where you could sit and marvel at the mountains. And the birds twittered the sweetest sound!
The villa is uphill a bohemian village, so quiet in the evening, really nice.
And last but not least, the cats are a delight! :) so fun to be around :)

We had a wonderful time staying at Casa Pini. We were welcomed by very warm and friendly owners who offered us some useful tips. We were able to leave our luggage in the morning before check in.
The room was spacious, comfortable and very clean. We were super happy to see a coffee machine.
There is a bit of an uphill walk to get to the property so if you are traveling by public transport keep that in mind. I would happily recommend to stay at Casa Pini.

Host was excellent, friendly, inviting and helpful. She even gave us details of the restaurants open nearby and how the ferry system on Lake Como operates. The room was very spacious and came with a small fridge, kettle, microwave, coffee machine, crockery and cutlery in a kitchenette area with a table and chairs. The room was also very neatly laid out, clean, warm, comfortable and pretty. The accommodation exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend it to anyone in the area.

The small kitchen was perfect. There is a patio area in front of the apartment (no lake view.) Easy parking on the street was never a problem. There is a little bar around the corner. Only 10-15min walk to the ferry. Just what we needed.
The mosquitos in the room were too friendly. Floor was not clean.
