Right on the shore of Lake Como, opposite Urio Pier, Hotel Orso Bruno is a 20-minute drive from Como. Rooms are simply furnished and some overlook either the mountains or the lake.

Hotel Orso Bruno exceeded our high expectations. It's location is brilliant, literally less than fifty metres in front of the small pier that the ferry boats pull into. The views over the lake from the restaurant are breathtaking.
The staff are wonderful and could not do enough for us, Antonia even drove us down the lake to catch another ferry when the one that was due into Urio was unexpectedly cancelled due to an engine fault.
We ate in their restaurant every night and the food was superb as were the staff, all of whom were very engaging, warm and professional.
The hotel was very clean and our room had everything we needed including tea and coffee making facilities in our room which unfortunately many continental hotels do not provide.
We would book Hotel Bruno again without hesitation and probably will do!

People need to be aware of the complicated mode of transport...
People need to be aware of the complicated mode of transport to arrive from the airport to the hotel unless you hire a car or get a taxi which is 175 euros each way. Airport shuttle bus which only leaves 1 per hour and takes 25-30 minutes to get to Milan central station. Then a train to Como San Giovanni train station which takes 40 minutes and leaves every hour. Then either a bus which takes 30-40 minutes depending on traffic and departures are sporadic or the ferry which is a good 15-20 minute walk from the station and takes 44 minutes but those departures are not frequent in any way shape or form. We arrived Milan Linate at 1pm and arrived at the hotel past 5pm

Carate Urio is not very walkable.
Carate Urio is not very walkable. The street is narrow and very busy. There are limited transit options, with the city bus and boat taxi running at long intervals. Taxis are not easy to obtain due to local ordinances. However, there are a handful of restaurants nearby that are very nice, and the people were all very friendly and helpful.

Fabulous location with wonderful scenery.
Fabulous location with wonderful scenery. Easy to get around Lake Como by ferry boat service but be prepared to do a lot of walking to get to restaurants if you don't have a car. Take your camera everywhere - there are fabulous views around every corner!
The hotel is conveniently located across the street from a water ferry stop. This also means that the hotel has lakefront views from some of the rooms and the dining area. The rooms were very spacious and modern, and the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. They always answered our questions and for breakfast even remembered our favorites. This was the best hotel my wife and I stayed at during our two-week trip through Italy. I would highly recommend anyone to stay here during their trip to Lake Como.
Orso Bruno is a small establishment so our rooms were on separate floors but easy to get to. This was just a stopover to break up a long drive home (with 2 kids in the car) so it fit the bill. The view of Lake Como was accessible to us (just across the road) and it was beautiful. You could catch a ferry ride from right next door! We weren't able to enjoy their restaurant as it was closed that day. Good parking that could accommodate our large car (with reservation in advance).
The hotel is located at a ferry stop so you can easily get to Bellagio and Como. The price was reasonable for the area and our view was incredible. A few nice restaurants around and good breakfast for an extra fee. This was the perfect romantic stay for our honeymoon and we will always remember our time here.
I give this hotel exellent star because of the owner Mr. Fioroni. He is a fantastic, charming person who made my stay there! And once you are with him you move back to 50this in Italy. The rooms are very simple but this one with balcony sitting just at the lake is unbelivable for that price!
Beautiful apartment with gorgeous view over the lake. The check in was very easy and managing company was always there to answer questions and give local advices. The apartment is spotless clean, as if you are checking in into the hotel. Highly recommended!
Perfect place for a short stay at the lake. You can have breakfast directly above the water or a good glas of wine. The hotel is family run and everybody was super friendly. We loved the place and enjoyed our stay. We’ll definitely come again.
Carate Urio is gorgeous, and this studio apartment was located just a ten minute downhill walk to the lake. It was comfortable (had air conditioning thankfully!) and was the ideal place to retreat from the heat in! The bathroom was lovely.
Nice small hotel, in front of lake Como. Ferry station in front of hotel. Workers is very nice and helipiful. Nice restaurant with lake view. Rooms in authentic "old" style, very nice. Great value for price and category.
Absolutely magical locations everywhere you look! Lots of walking and climbing stairs. All the little stores in the area were simple and cute! ALL the restaurants were phenomenal! As authentic as you will ever have!!
The 4 bedroomed Apartment in the Villa was clean and tidy with modern facilities. It is centrally located on the Lakeside in Carate Urio which gives great views of Lake Como. We liked the Pool and the Terrace.
a cute hotel right next to the water taxi boat. if you’re looking for a relaxing time with a good view, it’s a great spot. also, the staff and the attached restaurant were top notch.
Lovely small hotel with generous room size, clean, and quiet. Dining room is exceptional with floor to ceiling glass window views of the Lake. Excellent breakfast. Will stay again.
Very traditional Italian hotel with a beautiful location on the water and in front of the ferry stop. Restaurant was incredible, staff was beyond accommodating. We loved it!
Clean, comfortable and very beautifully located in the centre of Carate Urio. The kitchen facilities were great and the hosts went out of their way to make us happy.
Our stay was perfect, the girl that attended us was quite friendly. We had a lovely night in Carate Urio a place perfect to escape from the big city noises.
The staff were so nice and thoughtful, the location was very good with the boat deck right in front of the hotel! and the view from the bedroom was amazing
