Location & what to see

Vanessa Apartment is located in the pedestrian historic centre of Como, on Via Domenico Fontana, just steps from Piazza Cavour and the lakefront. The area is the city’s liveliest for bars, restaurants and shops, with Como Cathedral and the Roman Theatre about 150 metres away and the Broletto a little further on: a lively setting, quiet at night thanks to the soundproofed rooms, but always within walking distance of everything.

The two train stations, Como Lago and Como San Giovanni, are 350 and 600 metres away respectively, while the bus station is about 400 metres away: getting around without a car is therefore easy. For those arriving by air, Milan Malpensa Airport is the closest at about 31 km, followed by Linate at 41 km and Orio al Serio at 49 km; the property also offers a paid airport shuttle on request.

Lake Como is the area’s main draw, with the lakefront reachable in a few minutes on foot for a stroll or a boat trip. Nearby, visitors can explore the Volta Temple, dedicated to Alessandro Volta, the Villa Olmo Museum and, a little further away, Baradello Castle overlooking the city from above. In summer the lake is suited to swimming and water sports, while in cooler seasons the hillside trails around Como offer good opportunities for hiking, an activity also organised by the property itself.

Piazza Cavour Como — Central square on the lakefront, a meeting point and popular spot for strolls 50 m
Como Cathedral — Gothic-Renaissance cathedral in the heart of the old town 150 m
Roman Theatre — Archaeological remains from the Roman era in the historic centre 150 m
Volta Temple — Museum dedicated to the life and discoveries of Alessandro Volta 500 m
