Hotel Plinius

A very good hotel in Como

不是很舒適，感覺整體較差

All hotels in Como are expensive but we thought we would get a good deal at Hotel Plinius. The bedroom was large (we hadn't asked for a 3 bed room but liked the extra space) but the decor was getting tatty and worn. The bathroom needed renovating as tiles were cracked and there was black mildew all round the shower cubicle. The shower head and handle were broken which meant when water was running through, the whole thing came apart. We reported this each day we were there but nothing happened, no suggestions or apologies. It was obviously known about as the cleaner would have spotted it. Very disappointing. The breakfast was a bit better than basic with none of the Italian delicacies promised in the guest book. The coffee machine was inadequate for the number of guests as it had to be checked and refilled every 5/10 minutes. We felt this was not good value despite the location. We suggest you look a little further away from the centre to get a better experience.

The staff are friendly and the location is relatively ideal except for the church which the hotel backs onto. The breakfast was good and the room was a pretty good size, but the AC was rattly and the beds were uncomfortable with flat pillows. There were no additional pillows in the room, instead we had to ask at the desk. We didn't get fresh towels until we asked for additional ones either and the walls were pretty thin. The elevator was also very small And then there was the bathroom. Very little thought had gone into the bathroom. The configuration was all wrong and seemed to have been designed in a hurry with accessibility (fortunately not a priority for us) an afterthought. There were two showers, one in the back where there was not even a light, a tiny shower head, half unusable shower rack and the bidet right in front of the shower door. The "accessible" shower with seat was right in front of the door with no screen, nothing to protect the door or the rest of the bathroom. The positioning of this shower and the rails didn't seem to be cohesive for actual accessible use that would allow a disabled person dignity and independence. The toilet and the sink were both huge which again didn't make it seem very disability friendly. There were also two toilet roll holders for some reason. As me and my friend could also only just fit into the elevator, I have my doubts about a wheelchair being able to fit in there Como was beautiful, I hope to go again, but not at this hotel!

We had a very pleasant stay at Plinius. We had executive rooms at the fifth floor, and that was one of the best room we have had for a long time...Very clean & tidy, and the air condition did a good job, without to much noise. Very friendly and helpful staff...Yes, can be recommended...

We are currently staying in room 502 we arrived two days ago at 10.45am and we were impressed from this moment on, really welcoming reception who took our luggage and said our room would be ready for 12.30pm. (How wonderful to have an early check in.) Less than two hours later our luggage was in our room. Wow plenty of space, fabulous bathroom, and an amazing balcony view, these photographs are after we unpacked and had a nights sleep, in a very comfy huge bed with super crisp linens. There is nothing here whatsoever to fault. Nothing has been too much trouble, they even got me a great selection of gluten free bread, rice cakes and biscuits for breakfast, so they really do go above and beyond. We are here in Como to plan our wedding, so it’s central location is perfect, we have family in the area, and are constantly in and out, I think now in day three we have probably met all the staff who are genuinely friendly. We will certainly be back as our plans finalise and have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending this hotel to our English wedding guests.

Bad start to our stay as room was still being cleaned when we got there and lift was “in use” to stall us. We wouldn’t have minded just being told and waiting the 20 minutes. However everything else was good. The location is just off a square with lots of restaurants and not too far from anything. Breakfast was good with enough of options to keep everyone happy. Bed was too hard for my liking but I slept fine because of all the walking.
