Review by hotel critic
As a fashion photographer who frequently indulges in Italy's luxury fashion scene, my recent visit to the Barchetta Excelsior for a gourmet getaway surpassed all expectations. The hotel's prime location by the lake and close proximity to Como's finest boutiques and eateries made it an ideal choice.Partaking in the breakfast spread at the Barchetta Restaurant on the 1st floor was a sensorial delight. Offering everything from freshly sliced fruits to home-made cakes, it truly catered to every culinary desire. The buffet's selection of sweet and savory options, paired with the best cappuccino I've ever had, set the tone for a memorable day ahead.Dining at the Bistro Restaurant on the ground floor was a culinary journey blending Italian and international flavors seamlessly. The ambiance was intimate, and I found myself savoring each dish with delight. The gastronomic experience was further elevated by the Franciacorta sparkling wines, rivaling the finest Champagnes.the Barchetta Excelsior seamlessly blends luxury accommodation with a culinary haven, making it a must-visit for travelers seeking a gastronomic escape in Como.
