"Stresa is a beautiful lakeside resort and La Palma reminds me of the grand European tours of the past. Great service, beautiful rooms and perfect location."
"Excellent location and hotel. Also, one of the best restaurant in town as well, I can speak from experience since I tried three of them.
I highly recommend that hotel if you want to spend some time around Lake Como."

"This is a great and very convenient hotel. We specifically booked this near the airport instead of in the city center because it was August and we wanted the option of having a pool. It’s a lovely property close enough to the city center by car. The staff was very friendly and accommodating.
This was the last stop before going home so being close to the airport only a few minutes away was very helpful.
I did a lot of research for choosing this location. It did not disappoint."
"We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Funicolare. We stayed in a family room, which was absolutely massive, with plenty of space for all of us and a very comfortable stay.
The views were amazing and really added to the experience. We also had dinner at the hotel one evening and breakfast during our stay. The menu was varied, with plenty of choice, and everything we had was enjoyable.
All of the staff were lovely and welcoming, but Luana at reception deserves a special mention. She was incredibly kind and helpful. We had unfortunately made a mistake when booking and selected the wrong dates, but Luana was so gracious and understanding and went out of her way to help us resolve the issue. Her kindness made a stressful situation so much easier.
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend Hotel Funicolare. Spacious rooms, beautiful views, good food and genuinely wonderful staff."
"It’s very convenient if you need to stay near Malpensa and their shuttle service is great! It was also very convenient to have the restaurant downstairs and the food was very good.
Would definitely come back!"
