Hotel overview
Located in the quiet town of Colico, surrounded by mountain landscapes, this simple 1-star hotel offers a relaxed, family-run atmosphere. The rooms feature balconies that provide a pleasant view of the natural surroundings. Guests appreciate the straightforward accommodations with clean, comfortable beds and practical furnishings that suit budget-conscious travelers.
The property boasts complimentary breakfast with fresh pastries and cappuccino served at the onsite bar, a favored meeting spot among visitors. Free parking and Wi-Fi are available, making it a convenient base for those exploring Lake Como, which lies about 2 kilometers away.

This informal hotel fits well for short stays, especially for visitors keen to enjoy nearby historical sites and the tranquil setting of the Italian lakeside region.

Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“We stayed here on our European road trip. It's only 5 minutes drive Lake Como. The rooms were clean and a little tired but was more than adequate for a stay over. There were lots of parking room outside. The lady who greeted us at reception was very helpful. We also had a nice little breakfast.”
“Hotel Aurora hosted me for 4 nights during April after Easter. The family owned hotel is very friendly and accomodating. They helped me with my transport and all questions related to my stay in Colico. They were very kind in giving me a room with a larger bed for no extra charge. For the price, the location, the wonderful hospitality and the included breakfast its a great deal. Colico is a very nice and calm town and this hotel made this solo travel very enjoyable and welcoming. Would recommend this hotel and possibly stay here agian. Thanks a lot!”
“Lovely stay at Colico. The picture is the view from the bathroom, really lovely place for the price. The staff were incredibly lovely and caring. The only downside was the 10min walk from the centre, but that is compensated by the views from the city!”
“Nice hotel in easy to find location. All that you need for a couple of night if you are around Colico for the weekend or for work. Old building and furniture, it is a one star hotel anyway. But very comfortable bed and clean facilities. Breakfast was nice with fresh pastries and cappuccino made on the moment at the bar. Few other choices available: fruit juice and yogurt, and cereals. We needed it for one night of rest on the way home after a wedding, and we were happy.”
