What people say

We stayed at Hotel Europa at the beginning of our recent trip to Italy and were very glad that we had chosen it as our base for exploring Lake Como. The hotel offered everything that we were looking for in terms of accommodation, living up to its excellent reviews, and we were very comfortable there. Our room was clean, modern and airy and the hotel as a whole has a welcoming, relaxing atmosphere. What makes this hotel particularly special, however, is the friendliness and hospitality shown to .
all reviews » My husband and I booked Hotel Europa for the last leg of our honeymoon and ended up adding an extra night last minute do to an issue at another hotel. Booking here was one of the best decisions we made on our whole trip. The hotel and small town of Sorico was absolutely charming. Mattia was extremely helpful in planning the ins and outs of our time there. He had current ferry and bus schedules available which saved us a ton of time. Our room was very modern and comfortable with a beautiful view. August 2013 we drove throughout northern Italy celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary. Arriving at Hotel Europa we were welcomed as family or friends, making our celebration even grander. Our room was clean and lovely-overlooking the ball fields, promenade, waters of Lake Como and beautiful mountain ranges. What a treat to awaken to each morning! My husband, a cook, was impressed with Angela's home-cooked meals, especially her pasta-saying that it was the best he has tasted. Mattie's multi. We stayed 3 nights in this hotel at the end of our trip trough Italy, and it was a delight! The staff (a nice family) were very friendly and attentive, the room was big, comfortable (huge bed!) and very clean, and the location very close to the lake. Having said all of this, I also have to mention that the food in their restaurant is simply delicious!!! Real home made food, made with love! The pasta was the best I ate in 10 days travelling around Italy! Don't miss out this nice hotel when stayi. We booked Hotel Europa for the last leg of our honeymoon and could not have been happier with our choice. The town of Sorico and the hotel (and owners were absolutely charming. The room was modern yet cozy. As others have mentioned the food was delicious! I also appreciated the option of having delicious salads and soup if you're in the mood for something a little lighter :) Mattia was extremely helpful in giving us tips and helping us plan our time there. He even had up to date ferry and bus s. I loved the small town atmosphere and the charm of Hotel Europa. It is a family run hotel and I was fortunate enough to meet them. Mattia was so helpful... He even picked me up and brought me to the hotel after I got off the ferry in an adjoining town. The food was outstanding... The best pasta (spinach tortellini) I have ever tasted not to mention the flavor of the butter. Don't hesitate to ask for smaller portions (if that is what you want) as they are very accommodating. If my travels take m. We had a very enjoyable stay. The family who own the hotel are very friendly and helpful. The food is all home-cooked and the pasta is especially good. Our room was clean and comfortable with a balcony from which there was a good view of the lake and snow-capped mountains. The hotel represents exceptionally good value for money. Sorico is a quiet and attractive village which makes a good base for visiting many places around Lake Como. Hotel Europa is definitely one of the loveliest places we have ever stayed. Mattia and his family are extremely welcoming and helpful. His mother's cooking is incredible so there is no need to eat anywhere else but the hotel during your stay. It is within an easy drive of all the local attractions, but in a more low key area on the lake. We would definitely book at Hotel Europa when visiting the area again. It is a true gem. This is a wonderful family-run hotel that ticks all boxes of value, comfort, relaxation and Lake Como atmosphere. Matthia is a wonderfully helpful host, ably supported by his parents. His mother is a wonderful cook and, after the first meal, we did not even think of eating elsewhere. They are particularly happy when hosting Australian guests. Homemade pasta, local lake fish, dinner and breakfast in general, air-dried ham and made-to-order egg for breakfast, very friendly service by "il patrone"; conversation with the junior owner, totally friendly and helpful family staff, down to earth prices, impeccable cleanliness, quiet location, everything functional. Great lakeside walks. excellent staff. They were very hospitable and friendly and did everything to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The restaurant served excellent food. You asked and you received what was asked very promptly. If only all hotels were as warm, friendly and hospitable. Hotel is beautifully decorated and deserves to do well. lovely family run hotel close to the lake with great scenery, a great place to stay if you want to see the alps .the room was very clean and comfortable the home made food in the restaurant was very good and so was the breakfast, the family where all very friendly and helpful a great place to stay, we would stay there again. the very good meals prepared by "la mama" the very very good (excellent) service of all the family: the father at the restaurant (speaking very good french), the son at the public relations (a great sense of humor and a very good english). We really felt like home and would like to come back.... Staff was supernice and helpful. We had a dinner at the hotel and it was excellent. To be honest: best dinner ever eaten in Italy! Also the breakfast was delicious. This is an unique place where customers are taken a really good care. I warmly recommend the hotel for all travellers. The family whom own the hotel were very kind and very helpful they let us use the Landry of hotel free of charg because all landries around where closed for holiday I feel that I'm in my house if I will return to sorico I will stay in this hotel and I strongly recommend this hotel. Family run with home cooking. Deserves more than 2 stars for the ambience and facilities. Good breakfasts and excellent dinners with mama's own pasta. Lovely promenade 50 metres away and fantastic views of Lake Como and the mountains. Ask for a front balcony room if you can. Very welcoming and warm owners Very clean and neat Just a few steps from Lake Como Mamma is wonderful cook, treat yourself to a great homecooked dinner in the restauant go with waiter recommendations re what mamma has made fresh that day Great spot to access lake como. Absolutely everything. Very nice and clean family hotel with helpful staff. Delicious cuisine - the homemade pasta was incredible. The personnel speaks english, french and german. Very good hotel location for trips around lake Como. We really enjoyed our stay. The staff at Hotel Europa are delightful. Nothing is too much trouble - from eggs at breakfast to a special request for homemade lasagna. Mattia and his family ensure that all your needs are met. Ate mama's wonderful pasta every night! Recommended. Excellent, warm, friendly, thoughtful service. Mattia and his entire family went out of their way to ensure we had an excellent time. The homemade meals were delicious. We didn't even have to think about where we wanted to eat each night... Hotel situated in the beautiful and peaceful surrounding of Sorico, at the northern part of Lake Como. The hosts were very courteous and helpful. Mattia offers useful tips and ideas for 'what to do' around the lake. The friendly family service and home style cooking was a clear highlight. We have spent a month in Italy eating more than our fair share and I can honestly say it was the best pasta we have both had by far..... Location was quiet, short trip to busy parts of the lake. Family owned business o strived to do their best. Very proud if their hotel. Comfy bed, had option to chose balcony room, overlooked lake. Family area. Lovely family run hotel with friendly and welcoming owners. Really clean and neat - spacious family room. The evening meal at the restaurant was wonderful - real Italian home made food. Very good family hotel. Nice owners - very good food (mama is wonderful cook). Little quiet village, perfect location to visit Lake Como. Excellent hosts.Mathew and family took care of us as we were part of their family.Excellent location, 5 mins walk to Lake Como.

Family atmosphere Good home-cooked food Relaxed ambiance. Staff absolutely fantastic, delicious homemade food. Love the home cooking and the family run staff. Great family run hotel. Very helpful people. Very accommodating and very nice breakfast. Very friendly and great cooking. The Hospitality of the crew. the food. Nice staff, and location. The location was nice, but maybe not so much to do in the area. Nothing, wonderful stay!. There could be a wider range of options for breakfast. There is absolutely to not like. Low quality orange juice - should be fresh sqeezed or forget it - day old rolls - should be at least baked up quickly in the oven before serving. none. nothing, it was perfect;-). Everything was good. Being a small Italian village it is to be expected that church bells will toll at night - its part of the authentic experience. Nothing. Towels have seen better days.... Hard pillows. Breakfast a little sparse. A little more choice for breakfast - perhaps a buffet?. Nothing. It's a small village a bit away from the 'funcy' villages without many alternatives. For us was what we were looking for. Church clock chiming every half hour right outside the room! Breakfast bit unimaginative. Nothing really. Prices could be lower during low season. 2 star rating doesn't seem right, should be 3-4 stars!. The bells. No airco in the room. the room. Room was really hot during the night (mid July). The staff brought us a fan, but it didn't help.
