The apartment is just outside the old city. 2-3 minutes walk. We have been to Como before so we know our way round. The free parking was very useful as it is super expensive to park in Como. The apartment was very clean and served our purpose.

Welcome to Porta Torre Suite, a delightful open-space apartment just steps from Como’s historic center and the iconic Porta Torre, a beautiful example of medieval military architecture. Located on the second floor, the apartment is thoughtfully furnished and fully equipped to make your stay truly special and unforgettable, fast internet included. One of its standout features is a private garage located just a short walk from the property—so you can explore the city stress-free, without having to worry about parking or daily fees. The apartment was completely renovated just two years ago, and we are currently upgrading the building’s stairwell. Rest assured, this work is being carried out with care and won’t cause any noise or disturbance during your stay. Cleanliness and attention to detail are very important to us. In addition to our regular cleaning routines, we perform complete ozone sanitization between each guest, ensuring a high standard of hygiene and peace of mind. Perfect for two guests, the loft now also features a sofa bed that can accommodate a third person upon request. For added safety, the apartment is equipped with a surveillance camera outside the entrance, as well as gas and smoke detectors inside, for early detection of any leaks or fumes. We look forward to welcoming you and making your stay in Como comfortable, relaxing, and memorable!

Please don’t hesitate to reach out—I'll do everything I can to make your stay in Como truly special and full of genuine experiences.
The apartment is in the center a few meters away from the Tower that opens the way to the centre historic and pedestrian area. The area is very safe.
