Casa Brenna Tosatto Art Experience

This was the most beautiful setting and the staff made our stay so comfortable, fun and happy. It was the most perfect location and place. We could not have asked for more. Thank you!

Lovely little property in Lenno, excellent directions, clean apartment with comfortable bed. On the Greenway trail (walking path to ther towns). Very close to Lake Como, with boat stop in Lenno (limited service), much more options for ferries/water taxi just north in Cadenabbia. Only downside is you really need a car to get around (which we had); onsite parking is provided.

We stayed for 5 days & enjoyed our stay in the Lake. We were in the top floor apartment which has a lot of stairs to climb, no lift. It is a little noisy as it’s right beside the main road so bring ear plugs as that made it better at night to sleep. The second room in the apartment is difficult to stand in as its ceiling is very low due to being an attic. I would recommend the owners upgrade the towels & bath mats as they were very old The staff are very lovely, helpful. Special mention to Nejla who gave us lots of recommendations & nothing was an issue. There are not a lot of restaurants in the area as it’s not centrally located in any of the larger towns however there is a lovely walking path to get around. There is also a nice little beach to swim in the lake about a 2 minute walk from the apartments and a small restaurant that is nice right out the front which was great for afternoon aperitif or dinner. Excellent spot of you don’t want to be in the hustle and bustle of the large towns. Also parking on site was great.

We stayed in Sophia a wonderful apartment with an outside terrace offering amazing views of Lake Como. Our hosts were incredibly attentive & helpful. The personalised breakfast provided by the ever helpful Nejla was served outside giving us a memorable start to the day. There is a safe walled walk to a local supermarket & attractions in Lenno. Highly recommend taking the public ferries from Lenno to visit other towns around Lake Como such as Varenna or Bellagio. Only downside of this spectacular property is the very busy & noisy rd on the other side of the property which impacted on our tranquil retreat.

Very friendly staff who keep seeking for anything they could help with. A nice property with good maintenance. Need a little walk or transportation to restaurants.

Starting on a positive note Casa Brenna is a beautiful art hotel, with stunning pieces throughout the old home. The rooms are neat and tidy and the views are quite lovely depending which apartment you get. The downsides, starting with location. Lenno is lovely but very quiet, there are only a handful of restaurants near the hotel and most are a 20 min walk away. The hotel isn’t actually in Lenno it’s about 15-20 mins on foot along quite a busy dangerous road. You can duck and weave through the back streets but there is one part that you must walk against the heavy oncoming traffic. Secondly I wouldn’t really call this hotel, there’s never anyone around to greet you on reception and getting a taxi or Uber to and from is impossible. Finally, there are a lot of stairs. Most apartments have 2 flights of stairs inside, so to get to the bedroom or bathroom you need to go up at least 2 flights on a windy narrow staircase. Not at all practical with kids or older people. The staff were lovely and very accommodating. This is a lovely place to stay if you’re a young couple, but would not recommend otherwise.
