Charming hotel with a great view.
The hotel is set in a small village on the top of a hill overlooking Lake Como. The view is gorgeous, the restaurant was awesome and the staff are so lovely. I didn’t find the room particularly comfortable but we stayed in the least expensive room so perhaps the more expensive ones are a bit cozier. Our room was very basic and a bit run down but it’s an old building and has a lot of charm. Overall, it’s lovely but if you want luxury, I would recommend upgrading your room to a suite. Thanks to the hotel staff for the warm welcome!

Such a wonderful stay. Staff were really friendly, room was gorgeous, view was stunning. Felt clean but vintage and stylish. Food at the restaurant and at breakfast were lovely. If you're driving it might be easier to park in Como and get the furnacular up as it's literally right next to it and saves navigating up the hill.
If I could give more than 5* I would!

The Bellavista is simply charming! Our stay could not have been more enjoyable! If you enjoy a serine and quiet experience, staying at the Bellavista in Brunate is the best choice in all of Lake Como. The Bellavista is family owned and operated, which extends a warm and welcoming experience! The view of Como from the hotel is spectacular too!

This property was gorgeous. The views are amazing. The staff was very nice. They have a restaurant overlooking Lake Como that is spectacular. Dinner, wine and breakfast were lovely.
They stayed in contact with me via messages and answered all questions.
I will absolutely return to this hotel my next trip to Brunate.

Exceeded all expectations, friendly warm welcome, helpful in every way. Magical room with breathtaking views of Lake Como, authentic room and surrounding. Room was traditional yet had all the modern necessities needed. Young children were equally in awe of the hotel. 2 minute walk from amazing funicular that takes you down to Como. Delicious breakfast served by helpful and friendly staff enjoyed with views of Lake Como.

Beautiful place on the hillside.
Hotel is beautiful inside and out with gorgeous views and good food. I didn't realize it's at the top of the funicular, so trips to and from Como are easiest using the funicular.

An incredible experience and property. Wonderful views beautifully restored building and rooms. Great restaurant and bar. Really a wonderful location and staff. The drive up is not for the faint of heart but we’ll worth it. 20 meters to the incline down to Como. My only complaint if you could call it that, is that it did not have A/C. But completely understandable given the age of the building. Was not expecting it but it did get very warm in August. Overall a great experience. Would absolutely recommend.

WORST HOTEL IN THE WORLD
There are very rude employees in the hotel, there are 9 rooms in total, at least three people asked me which room I was in, there is no elevator in the hotel, the room is very dirty, the toilet is the worst hotel I've ever seen until I can't find a bathroom

Great location, great staff and great food!
The road up to the hotel is mostly one car wide and has to deal with two way traffic :-) We had reserved a parking space. The hotel doesn't have air conditioning, so in summer be prepared to sleep with the windows open and expect a few mosquito bites, there is also street noise, but that said, the room was large and comfortable. The staff are just wonderful, nothing was too much trouble. We ate at the restaurant and the food was exceptional. Would be happy to return.

Beautiful!
Beautiful hotel, wonderful restaurant, kind and welcoming staff! Our room with a balcony overlooking Lake Como was perfect!
However, we didn't anticipate the lines for the funicular during the day. Many people take day trips to Brunate, so the wait for the funicular between 10 and 5 was between 30 minutes to an hour.
But the hotel was worth the small inconvenience of the funicular (which does have a lovely view!).

Nice hotel. Old but this is what gives it some charm. Easiest way to it was funicular. Had to queue for 90 minutes to get on it the Saturday we arrived. Pre-Book ticket and bypass the line.
