Hotel Argegno is a charming establishment situated in an idyllic setting, offering well-lit accommodations that provide delightful vistas of Lake Como. This unpretentious hotel features a laid-back dining area and a convenient snack bar. Its favorable location near the ferry terminal allows for easy access to the lakeshore and affords guests with breathtaking views of the lake.
I had an amazing time at Argegno, the place as well as the hotel. Great hospitality, clean, and the view from the room is worth spending a few more penny. The location is great, well connected through bus/ferry from Como S. Giovanni station, and the bus/ferry stop is right in front of the hotel. Taxi is also available from the station, but quite expensive. There is a restaurant along with the hotel with good food. Breakfast selection is good too. If you want to spend some time far from the hustle bustle of a city, this is the place to go.

We had a terrible experience with the owner/manager before we even checked in. We booked a room one day in advance, and when we called directly to confirm there was a crib available, the owner went crazy because we dared phone directly and not use the messaging system in the booking platform we used (even though it says they take up to 15 hours to respond there.... um, great). He was so rude and aggressive to my wife, that we had to stay somewhere else. The worst service we have ever encountered in any hotel/restaurant anywhere in the world. And we've been to some seriously underwhelming places.... Unluckily for us, Como is beautiful enough to keep their rooms full regardless of bad reviews... but if this review changes just one person's mind, it's done its job. The most annoying part of this hotel, is how much time I've had to spend writing reviews and opening tickets... that alone will fuel this vendetta for life.

We had a pleasant experience with this hotel. Nice location, if you don't mind 30min bus or taxi ride from como city. View of lake from the window was worth it. Breakfast was included with the room. Very helpful and friendly hotel staff.

All the staff is super friendly. The hotel is in a privileged location overlooking the lake. Breakfast has a wide variety of options and the restaurant also has a lot of very tasty Italian food options. I strongly believe that I will return and this hotel will be my main option for staying.

Not worth it! The hotel is located in a busy town, with loads of traffic driving by all the time. If you sit on the terrace, don't expect other than a lot of noise and stress. The rooms are in poor condition, and the staff were not friendly. I was glad when I checked out! 1/5 🌟
Peter Kastrup-Larsen — Google review
Absolutely disgusting! Please do not eat here unless you want to have a food poison. Old food, tomatoes were fermented, pasta was worse than from a box, pizza had barely any sauce, the tartar was just raw beef with no flavor. My husband and I barely ate, left whole dishes, paid full amount and left this place. Both felt horrible the rest of the night with stomach issues. Horrible stuff on top of that, the manager guy there was so rude told us that “is not bad food you just don’t like it, if you wanna complain is not here” The worst food I had in my life.

This is a review for the restaurant below and not the hotel. Waitress was quite rude, we wanted to order coffees but she said that they were only a restaurant and had no coffees. There was a couple sitting right next to us who ordered coffees nice and easy. I was going to try and order a different drink so we could sit there as we were waiting for our ferry but she walked away from us before I could even say anything. She kept looking at us with a scowl on her face. I'm sure this place is nice normally, but I assume they are only nice to you if you are staying in the hotel. If there was an issue with us ordering coffee I wish she had explained it to us clearly instead of just saying "it's a restaurant" and walking away expecting us to understand. I can understand if there is actually a restriction on the coffee, maybe for only people staying at the hotel or something - which is pretty bizarre on its own - but it would have been nicer if she had spent some time trying to explain it to us and not give us this rude attitude. I was willing to pay for anything but her attitude made me incredibly disappointed and turned off from ordering from there. Every other restaurant in Argegno has been very understanding and willing to try and explain things to us. Maybe that lady was having a bad day but she treated us like scum and I wouldn't recommend it.Bar motto next door and La Piazzetta around the corner are better and I would highly recommend it - the waiters were patient and kind.

The waitress in dark short hair (always working day shifts) are extremely rude! Not helping to solve problems and when it happens starts to speak only in italian! The room was fine but bed not comfortable. The hotel is right in the main street and near the local bar so the loud noise didn’t let to sleep well.

Such a lovely hotel with a restaurant downstairs. Good selection of food, reasonably priced. So many pizza varieties to choose from as well as other items. Our room was modern and comfortable with a balcony with a fantastic view of the lake. No fridge or elevator. The owners were very friendly and helpful. We had to leave early to catch the first bus so missed breakfast so the owner made us a lunch of sandwich, cake fruit and water which was so thoughtful. The location was great. The bus stop and ferry stop was right outside and there were various restaurants very near. We loved taking walks around the narrow cobbled streets. Such a great experience. It was the perfect place to stay.

Restaurant
Il Sorriso, situated in the north-eastern corner of the piazza near the passageway connecting the port and piazza, underwent a complete renovation under new ownership in 2017. The establishment boasts an appealing outdoor dining area with decking. Indicative of their menu showcasing delightful fish specialties is their enticing fresh fish counter.
Lovely tiny place in the heart of Argegno, Lake Como. Kindness, excellence in cuisine and service as well. A must-visit when around!

5 stars for the warmth and hospitality of the restaurant employees and owner. We tried 3 different pastas, and the meat skewer and all were really good. It's worth the money. I tried the Ragu bolognese spaghetti and it was delicious. The sauces was tangy and creamy. The basil pesto sauce was also great. To finish off the lovely lunch, we ordered Tiramisu and it was on point. Would love to go again if I visit Como.

Beautiful atmosphere, gorgeous lake views, kind and attentive service, delicious food...this little restaurant is a real gem! Every dish is prepared with extreme care, this time we ordered "Risotto al pesce persico", that was very very good, and "Spiedoni di black angus con panceta peppata", surprising rolls of peppered bacon and extremely tender beef, served with jacked potatoes and crunchy mint zucchini... you have to try these! Tiramisu was also fantastic. Highly recommended

Beautiful atmosphere, gorgeous lake views, kind and attentive service, delicious food...this little restaurant is a real gem! Amazing experience we had here as a group. The view to the lake was stunning, very romantic and the restaurant is very classy one. Local Menu, very friendly staff! The cuisine and wines are also super nice and tasty! We tried all starters (veggie & meat options), best pasta with crunchy zucchini pistachios sauce, and tiramisu! Of course we finished with limoncello!
Nico — Google review
Outstanding! Octopus skewers had an amazing grilled flavor. Chicken and beef skewers were also amazing and juicy (we had them leave off the sausage). We also got a side of vegetables that were as good as the other dishes. The pasta on the shrimp with pasta was perfect with a nice flavor to the minimal sauce, the shrimp were good. And they introduced us to the concept of a sparkling Chardonnay (who knew?). Loved it and we may be back for our final night, loved the space and the staff. But the food was the star, congratulations to the chef and the kitchen staff. Loved it!

Myself and my partner had a wonderful dinner here. We felt very looked after and the food was absolutely delicious. We had the fried lake fish and chips and the sausage, chicken & beef skewers. Really special food - cooked perfectly and it tasted amazing. As a gluten-free eater myself, the staff communicated very clearly, the menu was labelled, and I was even given some freshly baked gluten-free bread to go along with my meal. 😋 Thank you so much Il Sorriso. If we return to Lake Como, we will certainly be back.

Our family of 6 had dinner here on a week night. It was helpful to be able to book online. The restaurant is nicely decorated inside and the food is good overall, but a bit hit and miss. The chicken, beef and sausage skewer looked amazing, and was full of flavour. The pastas were good and the fried fish was good but needed a sauce to accompany it. The risotto was presented well, but was not really seasoned enough and didn't quite taste as we expected it to. The result was that the risotto, which had a good consistency, didn't really feel like a savoury dish. The fish fillets on top were cooked nicely, but again didn't have enough seasoning and were neither soft or crispy so ended up in between. We all had desserts and the tiramisu and panna cotta were delicious. The waiter was kind, helpful and attentive and was greatly appreciated. Overall it was a nice experience, but let down a bit by the risotto unfortunately.
dc — Google review
Quaint little restaurant with views of Lake Como in Argegno. It is family owned and has a good selection of local dishes - no pizza though (our daughter loved her pasta though). The risotto dishes can only be ordered if at least 2 people are ordering it, which was a little confusing because there was no mention of it on the menu. We sat outside and enjoyed the relaxed dinner with very attentive service. Parking is nearby available and in 2 minute walking distance.

La Piazzetta, situated in the central square with ample outdoor seating for al fresco dining during the summer months, offers a varied menu of flavorful dishes that are expertly presented. The restaurant's staff goes above and beyond to create a wonderful ambiance, making the overall dining experience exceptional. While many establishments can serve tasty food, it is only the truly outstanding ones that possess a team capable of delivering an exceptional front-of-house service.
We’ve been here with my boyfriend this year in October. It was right when we arrived at Lake Como after a pretty long car trip in the evening. What I loved the most was the cozy Italian atmosphere and what made me feel like in American movies were some two super rich American couples which were speaking loudly about life stuff, creating the atmosphere more fun. The food is great, we had some very nice pasta and we also got some pizza from the house. Amazing experience, I should totally repeat it !

Cozy. Good food. Nice service. Restaurant busy, but fast. Music was a bit loud. House wine 7 Euros 1 dl. 🤔 Price for a pizza 10/12 Euros was good because the pizza was really good but can not say the same about a starter for 40 Euros. I was expecting something to die for.

Arrived here on a busy night with no reservation. The manager, Christiano, was so helpful and actually had a table brought out and set up for us outside. It was great. The food was amazing. The best pizza I had in Italy was from here. So flavoursome with fresh toppings. The aperol spritz were really good here too! The atmosphere and everything was just perfect. 100% recommend this place.

We liked the restaurant so much that we had all 3 dinners there only. On the day of arrival we got in at a time when everything around was closed. Italy)))) we were very tired, but we were received before the opening time, brought water (as it turned out it was a gift from the waiter🙏🙏🙏🙏) And then we made an order and it was brought very quickly. The waiter kept asking if everything was ok, recommended interesting and tasty dishes. The portions are big, we could barely manage))) At last: definitely recommend.

The food is fabulous but the staff excel. They create a great atmosphere. Many restaurants can serve good food only really excellent ones have a team that can deliver a fantastic front of house experience. We had our first meal here when we arrived at Lake Como and that impressed so much we decided that it was only fitting that it be the last restaurant we had dinner in. It was the right choice and our final meal was excellent! We will be back the next time we ar in the area or as best I can achieve using Google translate: "fino alla prossima volta!"

Very good food. I had the tuna with the Mediterranean salad and it’s delicious. They give you as starter pizza with sundry tomatoes oregano and olive oil on the house very good. Must order the artichoke as first dish and it’s delicious must try. The service was great they try to accommodate you and willing to change the dish. If you in the area stop by you will enjoy it. Also they’re open at 6pm when everywhere else open at 7pm.

La P'Osteria is a stylish and beautiful restaurant located on the edge of the river in Argegno. It offers a great dining experience with vaulted ceilings, delicious food, and excellent service. Booking in advance is recommended to secure an outside table with views of the ancient bridge from the terrace. The restaurant can be easily reached by following the path from the church along the same side of the river.
Excellent meal. We started with the local Lake Fish sampler, and it was better (and less expensive) than the one we had last week at a Michelin starred restaurant across the lake. The chestnut ravioli was perfect balanced. The veal with 4 salts was tender, cooked to proper temp and all 3 courses were delicious. We also had a bottle of one of the local FIVI wines, grappa and the tart for dessert.

We had the slow cooked lamb and lake fish. Delicious. Not huge portions (we added a side of veggies) but perfect for us. Lovely views, next to a trickling creek, and the staff were friendly. The food took a little longer than usual in Italy, but still pretty quick. The wines were only by the bottle and no house option so we went without.
