  No Air Conditioning!

  12 Jun 2025

  This place is super cute and great so long as you don’t like air conditioning. When we checked in, we explicitly asked does this hotel have air-conditioning. The answer was yes. The truth is no. They said that the rooms are cold through coils in the floor because “Europeans don’t like air blowing on them.”We were told that our room would eventually cool down… Spoiler alert… it did not. We were given a fan to cool our room down that didn’t really work. We were also told that the restaurant was so full that they couldn’t accommodate us even though there were literally four tables in the restaurant that were occupied out of a 30 table restaurant. Very disappointing. Our worst stay of our trip. Fiori Bianchi Srl, Direttore generale at Dandelion Como Suites & Park, responded to this review Dear Guest,Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.We are sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations.Regarding the cooling system, we would like to clarify that the most recently renovated part of the hotel features underfloor cooling rather than traditional air-conditioning with blowing air. This is a system that is often considered more comfortable, as it provides a more even and gentle temperature throughout the room. We are sorry that, in your case, it did not provide the level of comfort you were expecting.We also regret the disappointment concerning the restaurant. We understand your frustration, and we are sorry if the information given at the time was unclear or if the experience felt inconsistent with what you observed.Since your stay, the restaurant team and service organization have been fully renewed, and this aspect of the guest experience has since been revisited with great attention.Thank you again for your comments. Feedback such as yours is valuable, as it helps highlight where expectations were not met.Best regards,Dandelion Como Suites & Park

  Farmhouse chic, but without the chic

  28 May 2025

  Overpriced and underdeliveringLet me start by saying this: I have spent nights in all sorts of old farmhouses, from lovingly restored estates to crumbling structures with more character than comfort. I appreciate the quirks that come with age. This is not about expecting perfection. But when a property charges a premium, it must deliver more than nostalgia and excuses. At Dandelion Como, the disconnect between price and reality is impossible to ignore.No air conditioning, no heating, no solutionThe air conditioning was not working. When asked, the staff explained that it was due to “strange weather.” That is not a solution. The heater also did not work. Regardless of the season, a room should offer a functional temperature control system. This is basic, not optional.Check-in: the art of being ignoredThere was no greeting, no smile, no effort to make us feel welcome. The staff behaved more like indifferent landlords than hosts. If hospitality is meant to create a sense of arrival, this place missed the memo entirely.The room: old farmhouse, yes — but still filthyWe understand it is a farmhouse conversion. That does not mean the floor should be so dirty that your feet turn black after ten minutes without slippers. Insects were everywhere. The charm of old architecture vanishes quickly when basic cleanliness is neglected.Bathroom: no space for anythingThere was no shelf, ledge, or usable surface to place a toothbrush or any personal items. The bathroom was not minimalist. It was simply impractical.Three guests, one towelWe were three people. We received one towel. That alone speaks volumes.Noise: an echo chamber with creaky floorsIt is an old building, but the noise levels were astonishing. We heard every step, every piece of furniture being dragged above us, every late-night conversation. This is not inevitable in older buildings. It is the result of ignoring soundproofing entirely.The bed: bad design meets cheap materialsThe mattress was so soft it collapsed near the edge. You felt like you might roll off just by turning over. The pillows were oddly thick and round, made from hard foam, almost engineered to cause neck pain.Curtains that surrender at dawnThe curtains did not block light at all. At sunrise, the room was instantly bright. Sleep ended then, like it or not.Gravel courtyard: a nightly concert of crunching wheelsThe courtyard is covered in gravel. That might sound charming until you try to sleep. Every suitcase wheel and footstep echoes directly into the rooms. When new guests arrive at night, you hear it all. I am not a light sleeper. I still woke up.Pool: a surprise you learn at check-inThe pool, prominently featured on the website, was not working. This small fact is only revealed once you arrive. At that point, there is little you can do but feel misled.Final verdict: youth hostel atmosphere at luxury hotel pricesDandelion Como delivers a mismatched experience. If you enjoy being ignored, waking to sunrise at 5 am, and falling out of bed after sharing a single towel, this is your place. Otherwise, look elsewhere. What they charge and what they offer have absolutely nothing in common. Fiori Bianchi Srl, Direttore generale at Dandelion Como Suites & Park, responded to this review Dear Guest,Thank you for taking the time to share your impressions.We are sorry to read such a strongly negative account of your stay. While some aspects of every hotel experience are naturally subjective, we believe it is also important to distinguish personal impressions from objective facts.For example, your reference to needing both air conditioning and heating during the same stay is, in itself, a reflection of the particularly unstable weather conditions at that time. In some rooms, our systems are able to provide heating and cooling independently; in others, depending on the technical setup of that specific area of the property, the system operates seasonally and cannot provide both modes simultaneously. This is not unusual in historic buildings that have been carefully restored with different technical solutions in different parts of the property.We are also surprised by your statement that the pool was not functioning, as this was not an issue that occurred during the season.That said, we always take seriously any concrete comments regarding comfort, cleanliness or service, and we are sorry that the experience did not meet your expectations.Dandelion is a historic country property with a very specific identity, appreciated by many guests for its character, atmosphere and intimate style of hospitality. We understand that this may not correspond to what every traveller is looking for, but we believe that any review should still aim to reflect the stay in a fair and balanced way.In any case, we regret that your visit did not leave you with a better impression.Best regards,Dandelion Como Suites & Park

  Wow!!! You won't get better.

  24 Jun 2023

  Wow!!! What a lucky find. It was by chance I found this gem. As an owner of holiday accommodation in Italy I always think I do everything better but they have hit the mark here in every way. The design and setting are sophisticated and elegant, grown up. It is refined; from the rooms to the bar. The buildings are enveloped in mature parkland that just relaxes the soul. The food was 5 star and staf super friendly. I liked it so much I said that if they ever decide to sell to contact me. Dandelion Como, Direttore generale at Dandelion Como Suites & Park, responded to this review Thank you very much for your beautiful and detailed review. It was a pleasure to have you here for us as well and we really hope to have another chance to surprise you. Kindest regards, Jacopo
