B&B Casa Cantoniera is a bed and breakfast in Como, located about one kilometre from Baradello Castle, in a residential area on the edge of the city. The property stands out for its garden with outdoor pool, a rare feature for a B&B in this category, and for the family atmosphere found in the common areas.
The rooms, three types ranging from 13 to 17 square metres, are designed for two or three people and share air conditioning, soundproofing and a private bathroom with shower and hairdryer; one has a bathtub and city view, another has a garden view, while the largest offers an extra bed for those travelling in three. Breakfast, served buffet-style with continental and Italian options, is included in the stay.
The location is convenient for those who want to get around on foot or by bicycle: the Basilica of Sant’Abbondio is 1.7 km away, and the Como Borghi and Como San Giovanni train stations are 1.7 and 2.7 km away respectively. Ideal for those seeking a quiet stay close to the main points of interest in the city and on the lake.
B&B Casa Cantoniera offers three room types, all between 13 and 17 square metres, designed for two or three guests. Each room is equipped with air conditioning and soundproofed walls, a detail that ensures rest even in the rooms closest to the common areas. The bathrooms are private, complete with shower and hairdryer, although in one of the rooms the private bathroom is external to the room.
What differentiates the room types is mainly the view and the bed configuration: one room overlooks the city and has a bathtub, another looks onto the inner garden, while the third, the most spacious at 17 sqm, adds an extra sofa bed to accommodate up to three people. All rooms share free WiFi and the option to choose between a double bed or separate single beds, making the property flexible for couples, families or small groups.

The property is accessed through the garden via a small flight of about twenty steps, and is surrounded by small local businesses such as neighbourhood bars and restaurants.

Cycling enthusiasts will find several routes towards the lake, while in the centre visitors can explore the Broletto, the Volta Temple dedicated to Alessandro Volta and the Cathedral.
