Sergio Brunati MD, il Vicolo Manager
"Il Vicolo" was born from an old family house, from the end of the 1700s, completely renovated, in order to allow spacious and modern apartments. The furniture has been chosen directly by us, with care and love, so that guests can feel at home and have all the comforts that make them feel at ease. An elevator has been built for guests. All apartments are equipped with free fiber optic WI-FI, a fully equipped kitchen and a flat-screen TV. The apartments provide for the free supply of sheets, duvets, towels and in some large multilingual libraries. The building is located in a quiet street and has soundproofed windows. Added to this are now the apartments in via Albertolli 22, facing the lake, in the most beautiful, important and central square of Como, 150 meters from the Duomo from which you can enjoy the view of the lake and the surrounding mountains. In our apartments we consider it important to provide not only a friendly environment, where one can feel at home, but also to provide all the information for daily life (shops, restaurants, supermarkets, markets), on what to see (architectural beauties, panoramic) and best ways and times to reach them, without ever invading privacy, which we believe is a precious asset. If you don't have information about the place or time to look for it, we can plan with you which privileged visits, where to find a nearby parking space, locate a good hairdresser, a good restaurant, a quality Happy Hours, a place of entertainment or an exciting show ... up to an evening at the Casino. Ours is also a perfect location for SINGLES, if they are looking for a place to spend a comfortable stay, to enhance their individuality, to discover our wonderful landscape.
We want to be very attentive to the safety of our guests. Each apartment has a security door, none of which open onto the street, none on the ground floor. We are located in the historic center, a safe place day and night but we are also at your disposal to make not only your stay peaceful and secure, but also your transfers and your trips, from booking a taxi to discovering the places characteristic of the city with a professional guide up to planning with you what to see during your stay. The whole central district is a pedestrian area and therefore you can safely walk with your children Like a perfectly tailored suit, every journey is different; just like every traveler is different. And that's exactly why we're here: to help you experience the world on your terms. And we are passionate about detail and service. our one simple purpose: to encourage and satisfy your curiosity for our territory and to make sure that your free time is perfect, because we know that it is incredibly important to spend your free time well, especially if it is limited Similarly, if you are not sure where to travel but feel the need to escape, treat yourself or learn something new… we can arrange that too. Our recommendations are full of insights and inspiration, carefully curated to meet your needs, to create your tailor-made stay.
We are facilitated by being in the heart of the city. Whatever you're looking for, you can find it no more than 5 minutes from your apartment. You are 1 minute walk from the cathedral, 4 from the lakefront and 5 from the main museums. Nearby you can find almost all the best restaurants and cafes in Como , and less than 100 meters away are a 4-storey department store (Coin) and a food supermarket ( carrefour ), a bakery, 2 pastry shops and three take away pizzerias . Taxi stand is 150 meters away. Eight banks can be found in the area. If you haven't fallen in love with "Il Vicolo", take a look at "Le Rondinelle", our new residence in the center of Como. A new location then added to the Vicolo are the apartments located in via Albertolli 22, in the center, with a view of the lake or view the apartments of "Lakecomo- holiday apartments ” Spoken languages: English, French, Italian
