In Gravedona, one is quickly haunted by ghosts of the past with a town that has retained its medieval urban plan and a creepy church dating from the 12th century.
Gravedona may not be too far from Domaso, Lake Como’s windsurfing capital but the feel of the town is world’s apart. Even the residential houses tend to keep an ancient look about them, transporting tourists several hundred years back in time.
For others, however, Gravedona may seem like a more convenient base to get their watersports needs met than Domaso. After all, it has one of the most beautiful lakeside promenades found anywhere on the lake, great bicycle paths, sandy beaches, public tennis courts and a variety of sailing centers.

Varenna hotels blend in remarkably with Varenna’s pleasant and rustic Lake Como sorroundings and tend to be much quieter than those in frenzied Bellagio.

Why not spend the night in a cozy Milan airport hotel near Malpensa before taking off on your adventures in Lake Como? We’ve prepared a list of our favorite hotels below to help you start your search.
For those landing in Milan Malpensa before their journey through to Lake Como, it makes sense to rest the night in a nearby airport hotel before traveling onwards. Sometimes we rent our car directly from Malpensa airport and drive it to the hotel where we’ll be spending the night, because of the convenience of renting at Malpensa (great hours and selection of cars).

A Lake Como Vacation?…does that phrase tickle a bone in your body? It tickled mine the first day I arrived into Como and caught a glimpse of the glittering waters that shimmer under a warm, Mediterranean sunshine.
Relax under a palm tree (Yes! we’ve got ’em) and watch the gentle waves roll in under your feet or explore on foot the myriad of museums and churches displaying precious artifacts and paintings spanning over an entire millennium.
Or, perhaps you want something more exciting and prefer to take part in active sports like hiking, water-skiing, kite-surfing and others.

Some consider Varenna Italy to be the most heavenly of all the towns on the Lake of Como. Elegant and peaceful, it captures the breath of its visitors with charming rustic houses, a matrix of narrow cobble-stoned alleyways, and its lovely lakeside promenade…
A nice stroll along the long, lakeside promenade which begins from the boat harbor is one of our favorite ways to unwind and relax…letting the peaceful sound of the waves from the deep-blue water, and the calming breezes capture your senses.

Lake Como is generally not cheap, nor are Italian hotels in general with the rise of the Euro! Most people will pay on average 150 EUR a night for a hotel right on the lake with first class service. The high season in Lake Como lasts from April to October and prices are highest in the summer months of June and July which also gets the most tourists.

However, this does not mean that budget hotels do not exist. In fact, many Italians have decided to convert their homes into mini-hotels, or bed and breakfasts offering cheap rates to visitors who may be interested. So you can do budget Italian travel in style! Also, in the north you can find agriturismos which are farm holiday houses, offering quiet, rural environments for their guests at attractive prices. See bbplanet.it to search for them.

Although locals may consider Argegno a sleepy town, it is in fact a popular tourist destination.
It’s secluded location, backed by a tall-rising, majestic mountain offers superb views of Lake Como and an incredibly picturesque town. Some tourists, choose Argegno only as a passing-by town to get to ski-lifts and mountain trails nearby, or as a lunch stop for those enjoying the slow ferry ride up and down the lake.
