Reviews of Hotel Merloni 3 stars

Friendly and helpful staff Beautiful location

Eating inside

A big thank to all the staff at Hotel Merloni. We enjoyed every minute of our stay! The hotel has free parking, WIFI and air conditioning in the bedrooms. Breakfast was great. There was so much to choose from. We ate dinner at the hotel three out of the four nights of our stay. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. The pool was lovely, with an amazing view over the mountains and had a pool bar. You could have your drinks in the comfy chairs at the bar or take them back to the pool. Our bedroom room was spotlessly clean and comfortable. We caught the bus into Mennaggio (which was about 200 metres away) and it took about 10 minutes, Mennaggio was lovely, but we much preferred staying in Grandola, as it was quieter and less touristy. We went on a couple of ferry rides on Lake Como and the service was very good, but super busy in August! We also drove to Lake Lugano, which was only about 20 minutes away. The views over both Lake Como and Lake Lugano blew us away! It was like looking at paintings!

Nothing. It was all great!

Great location with plenty of spacious free parking and a lovely clean pool area. Room was nice and big with a lovely balcony looking out over the hills and Italian toen it was next to.

Breakfast was a little basic

The staff was very pleasant.

The hallway was very noise, because you could hear every door opening by the keys. Better have automatische ones or have a carpet to isolatie the sound.

Amazing service. The staff was so nice, immediately a smile on your face when greeted!

Hard bed and pillow was not amazing

This is a lovely place to stay ( I've stayed here before) and the family that run it make it very special, thank you !

Practical, no-nonsense, very friendly reception, and staff in general, good beds, easy to find and park, quiet place although located next to the main road. Room was functional and in good order.

Restaurant is really very basic, in terms of food and the place itself which is not cosy (to say the least). And we couldn't sit outside, which I is a pity but maybe more practical for serving. Swimming pool closes at 8pm, also a pity but probably with good reasons. And the coffee at breakfast was really horrible. Rather pricey for what you get - but this was high season.

The staff were lovely! Very welcoming and friendly...

The bed was very hard...

The staff were amazing, welcoming, friendly and always on hand to help with a smile. Will stay again. Food was amazing.

Perfect location if you have a car to go few km to the port and to explore Varenna and Bellagio by ferries. Good breakfast. Drinks or dinner near the pool.

Beautiful pool and place overall, friendly staff.

Not much to choose from in the breakfast.

Our stay at Hotel Merloni was truly memorable. The location is absolutely amazing—surrounded by mountains and offering a stunning view. One of the highlights was the beautiful front terrace, lined with palm trees and other lush greenery. Sitting there, simply soaking in the scenery, was a peaceful and unforgettable experience. The hotel staff deserve a special mention. They were incredibly polite, friendly, and always willing to help. This is what I call exceptional service—genuine hospitality that makes you feel welcome and cared for. As for the food, I originally planned to have dinners in the town center, where most restaurants are located. But I quickly changed my mind. The hotel’s kitchen turned out to be a hidden gem. The meals were so delicious that I ended up wishing I had tried them from the very beginning. In summary, Hotel Merloni exceeded our expectations. If we ever return to this area, we will definitely stay here again.

Front desk staff the best. Good locstion near menaggio. I had a problem with car and the lady at the front desk was outstanding.

No elevator to rooms located the next building, carrying luggage is not essy

We would like to say a big thank you for a wonderful stay at Hotel Merloni. We stayed here with our 4 year old for 3 nights. The room was quite basic but everything worked and it was super clean and the staff went above and beyond to help with any questions and made us feel welcome.
