Our reservations were booked and prepaid eight months ago. Upon arrival they had no reservation for us. They were able to accommodate us for one night of the two we reserved, and made arrangements at another Agriturismo nearby which was also very nice. Agriturismo Al Marnich was very apologetic and helpful as well as being a beautiful, clean wonderful place to stay.

Farm in the hills

Amazing experience high up in the hills. Dining room had some longer tables enabling conversation( language allowing)
Road up from Autostrada to Schignano interesting! Directions from Schignano were good but would have been perfect if a photo of sign had been included as several other names were included on that board.

We will not return

The staff at this hotel were very nice and accommodating. However, it is not a place I want to stay again. First, the drive up the mountain to get to it was quite harrowing and seemed to take forever. Our room had a comfortable bed, the most comfortable bedding we've had during our two-week stay in Italy. I did not like the ants and other insects in our room. We had purchased some pastries and had to throw them away because of ants. The breakfast was free but very sparse and there were ants crawling on the table where the food was being served. The wifi in our room was very strong. Unfortunately, our room was close to the hotel entrance and we had noise from someone playing the piano.

Arrived at this hotel with my family and were escorted to the room that turned out to be quite dark, basic and smelled like cellar. Had to leave to another hotel losing the non-refundable payment. The manager was rather kind to reimburse us the money we prepaid for the half-board.

Beware if you're a backpacker

If you are a backpacker without a mode of transportation, do not stay here. My girlfriend and I hiked - literally a vertical hike - nearly 2 km to get to the hotel with all of our luggage, without warning. Once we got to the top we were kindly greeted and taken to our room by one of the receptionists. After we explained that we were worn out from our hike, the receptionist insisted that we allow her to get us something to drink. We assumed it was complimentary, we were wrong. We ate dinner here because there was virtually no way down or back up after dark without a car, and we were pleased with the service and the food. The cook was excellent! The room itself was also very nice and tidy and came with everything we needed as well as a balcony that had awesome views of the Schigano.

It took a little while to climb up the winding roads, but worth it for the view at the top. The food is first rate -- all homemade and delicious. We had an excellent dinner and the breakfast was one of the best I've had. The room had a lot of character, not huge but comfortable enough. I would only hope for more attention to detail in the cleaning, but I would stay here again.

One of the last bastions of authenticity

The Agriturismo Al Marnich is one of the few remaining authentic, family-run agriturismo, serving locally grown, homemade food both at breakfast and dinner. I travel quite a bit around the world and every year I find there are fewer and fewer authentic, family-run hotels/restaurants. Unfortunately, many close and are replaced by hotel chains that all look exactly the same, more or less like an airport terminal. So it is truly refreshing and gives me hope when every once in a while I am still able to come across a place like Al Marnich, which is still anchored in its historical, geographical and cultural surroundings.

In addition the staff was most kind and welcoming. They served us delicious food even though we arrived late due to a long drive. The breakfast included local jam, cheese and cold-cuts.

I plan to return as soon as I get the chance...

Very disappointing.

Very disappointing. We expected a good-sized character room after studying the photos - we were allocated the tiny Room 11 as \"we don't give the bigger rooms to guests staying only one night\". The room was a single room with a double bed in it - I had to climb over my husband to get into bed! We were looking forward to the usual good food you find in an Agriturismo, but it was mediocre at best - very basic salad buffet (grated carrot, sliced tomatoes, cold pasta salad, etc) and the hyped \"mixed grill\" was thin strips of meat, a kebab etc(and a hamburger!). The \"fixed price\" for the meal was much too high, and drinks were extra. The views were good, but over the valley - you can't see the lake. Not worth the half hour drive up from Como to the hotel on a dreadful road.

Good value for the money

This property is a working farm, but the family that owns/runs it also rent out rooms as a B&B. The room we had was small, but clean and reasonably comfortable. It's a ways out from everything, so one needs a car to get from place to place. Food was good, albeit somewhat pricey, but we knew that going in.

great view, great food

I had a wonderful time at Agriturismo Al Marnich. It's a homey feeling and the view is great. I usually wake-up w/ a panoramic view of the mountain. If u like to trek and enjoy the view, this is the place.
Food is great. They make their own cheese, salami and all the foods were harvested from their farm.
The only setback is the transport. Since it's on top of the mountain, transport is difficult. It's good that Antonio is very accomodating and sent me to town w/ his car. There was supposed to be an airport shuttle which should have cost me 180 euros return trip but was not available. I hired a taxi instead for a return trip to the airport which costs me 280 euro.
Most of the staffs can't speak english as well, so they ring Antonio if I've got a message or passed me on to the lovely lady chef. Regardless of transport and non-english speaking staffs...i will still come back to the place! <3

Too Isolated and Rustic for Us

I found the location extremely difficult to find and am sure that even Sir Edmond Hillery's sherpa JAMLING
would be confused and lost finding his way. My GPS kept saying \" I'm lost too!\" If you eat in their restaurant
the food is disappointing and the prices are high. The morning breakfast was disappointing also. The only
good thing at breakfast was the home made bread and the raspberry torte.We stayed 4 nights, would
have left earlier but they would not allow us to shorten our stay without a full charge. It was 9.5 k's down
to lake Como on a treacherous road.
Our room was big enough but the bathroom was very poorly designed. I think that the
bathroom sink was added as an after thought. The sink was right in front of the toilet and you had to
slide sideways into the toilet. I found it difficult as they wanted to run a tab for everything. I would not recommend this place. Stayed Sept. 2013

A nice hotel, which is about 10 mins drive up the hill, but has spectacular views over the hills to lake como. The staff are all very pleasant and work hard. The rooms are all clean and very well equipped. The restaurant was well priced and did a limited but excellent menu which changes each night.

Fantastic Service

Considering that we didn't stay at this place on this occasion, the review may seem odd...but hear me out.

We booked through Expedia for the second time in three weeks (traveling through to southern Italy). The first time I've already reviewed. This time, sadly, despite paying there was an overbooking. Unlike other places where we have been overbooked via Expedia, these people were really helpful. Other places have always said \"We've no room, sorry\" and left you to your peril. Not these people. They offered us a choice of three possible alternatives in the area. We chose one in the same road and they took care of everything else - transferred the booking, the payment and ensuring that the breakfast was included too - all of this while remaining very pleasant. Despite the overbooking, the experience turned out to be great and I left with an even better opinion of the owners than I had following our previous stay.

It really is the people that make a difference in so many cases. Following their actions here, we will seek them out whenever we are passing through. Can't recommend them highly enough.

Typical Agriturismo

Having stayed here, the reviews seen on Trip Advisor etc were put into perspective. People really shouldn't moan about a working farm having a cockerel that crows early in the morning or a slightly bumpy bit of road at the front of it. As for people who complain that it's up a mountain, I can only assume they have no idea of the area of Como.

So, what is this place like for those who do know the area and understand what happens on a working farm? Pretty typical really, with one notable exception: the views. Being high up, the views over the hills is stunning and on a sunny day, lounging in one of their chairs is a real pleasure.

Beautiful place well worth the long winding road!

About 25 minutes up a winding road from Lake Como are some charming little villages and here you find this beautiful farm/guest house. The personal touch applied by the staff is warm and welcoming, the home cooked food delicious including home made goat cheese and honey. The spectacular views also off the possibility of a hike to the ridge line where an incredible view of Lake Como awaits those with strong knees! Dog lovers will revel in the company of two Pyrenean mountain dogs! we'd definitely come back here.

Interesting place

Way out of the way. and tough to find. Even took several attempts with the GPS. Staff was nice but take care to pick your room. Avoid room 1 - very tight, small window provides no ventilation or view. Slept part of the night with door open to get cool air flow (not the safest idea). Being on a farm was interesting. Loved the breakfast and dinner. This is a unique experience. Hot water was busted the day we were there.

All round, a very pleasant stop-off on road from UK to Rome (9/10 hrs driving from Calais). A bit of a trek up the mountain to find, but worth the drive- great views too. Peace amid the goats and the trees but within reach of Como and the crowds. Restaurant very pleasant for an evening meal and a good breakfast.

The staff were very fiendly & helpful. The drive up is a little adventurous but don't be put off, it's worth it. If you come with kids, bring suitable clothes so they can get dirty and then let them go and you relax. We forgot to bring gumboots and their shoes were very muddy. Our only slightly negative comment is that during our stay, the weather was cool but the restaurant building was completely overheated (we were sweating even in tee shirts) and our apartmetn was also too warm with no possibilitiy to adjust the temp. Small grumbles though, generally highly recommended.

Agriturismo Al-Marnach

Someone from the farm house picked myself and my sister up at the train station in Como and drove us to the hotel up the mountain. There was a fee but it was cheaper than the taxi service in Como. Beautiful countryside and the mountain was beautiful. They served great food both for the evening meal and the breakfast service. Staying there for more than one night would be great and also very relaxing.

Sad to leave=(

Honestly don't have a bad thing to say about this find of a retreat... and as a keen racing cyclist, having my bike with me to enjoy the awesome Lombardia riding territory was fantastic.
My fiancee also enjoyed the experience too; the views from the room and the friendly warm reception from the staff was incredible. The meals consisted of farm grown and local produce , so although we had a hire car, most nights chose to eat there.
My only reservation about giving this review is that more people will find out about it and the money will go up=)

An absolute treat of a hotel.

We visited Lake Como on a Sunday. The views were wonderful, and we really enjoyed the drive from Garda, however what came next disappointed us immensely. Most things were closed, we couldn't find some of the specific attractions we were looking for and in truth, we simply had a bad day there. One could say nothing went our way. Fortunately, we had decided to get to the hotel earlier than expected. It was quite a long drive, but undoubtedly very pretty. It felt like we found our home in the north of Italy. The view was outstanding, the staff were extremely friendly, the food was delicious and very clever. We wanted to book more nights, and we'd have done so if it wasn't for lack of time. We highly recommend this beautiful hotel.

Agritourismo

Very small room, one small window covered by the headboard, bath 2 steps down, to go outside 3 steps up. Food was not to my taste and the location was 20 minute drive or more from the main road. Also the roosters at 04:30 were not appreciated. I would not recommend and would not go there again.

An absolute joy!

Once you have found this wonderful farmhouse in the mountains it is a true pleasure you made the effort. If it's rustic old fashioned pleasure you are seeking, you will not go wrong.
The home made salami and cheese is worth the effort in itself, the staff are friendly and welcoming, the rooms are all individally decorated and very basic. Bed, wardobe, shower and a view to die for, but that's all you need for a relaxing and quiet stay in this lovely part of Italy.

Wow!

I chose this \"hotel\" ( it is a farm guest house in reality) because of its location - close to Lake Como, but off the beaten track a bit. If there was a disadvantage, the location is 20 mins climb into the beautiful Italian hills. But once there the views are spectacular over the surrounding valleys and villages. The farm is indeed a working one and a great deal of the food served at dinner is home produced. Dinners were worth having and I got the feeling that locals also used the \"hotel\" as a bistro restaurant as they were known to the staff - so that's a recommendation in itself.
the location is great base for exploring the area either on foot (extensive footpaths in the wooded hills and valleys), by car or on bicycle ( although you'll need to be pretty fit to cycle up to the farm.
One other small disadvantage is that persons of restricted ability may have difficulty climbing the steps to some of the rooms apart from that - what a great place.

Perfect Quaint Lake Como Hotel

The Agriturismo Al Marnich is beautiful, cozy and inviting! We arrived nearly 10:30pm on a Friday and the gentleman who checked us in was extremely pleasant and did not hesitate a moment to accommodate our in-room beverage request. The restaurant is quaint and very clean. The property is fabulous, especially if you like to see local wildlife. We will definitely revisit this property.

This hotel is truly located at the top of the mountain. You have a bit of drive up but it is worth it if you seek quiet company, good food, and a beautiful rustic rural setting. There are even friendly animals to pet.

Off the Fast Track

If you really want to relax, choose this hotel. The views along the drive up the mountain are spectacular. This property is nestled way into the mountain. The rooms are very rural and rustic and force you to appreciate the nature. No phones, no tvs. Listen to the sounds of real life, hike, trek and just appreciate the surroundings. It was wonderful. I'm definately going back and hopefully soon. Not many rooms so the attention is very personal. Loved it.

Jättemysigt boende uppe i bergen, inte jättelångt från Comosjön. Vi reste när det var över 30 grader varmt ute och det fanns ingen AC. Förståeligt och vi visste att det inte fanns men det vore trevligt med en fläkt i rummet!

Bra boende alternativ för en familj på upp till 6 personer i samma rum (uppdelat i två mindre rum).

Die Unterkunft liegt in den Bergen, bis zum See runter sind es so ca. 15-20min. Straßen sind eng und steil aber mit jedem herkömmlichen PKW machbar. Parken am Hof ist auch kein Problem.
Der Bauernhof bietet einen spektakulären Blick über ein Tal und Berge. Die Ferienwohnung sind rustikal aber liebevoll gestaltet. Der Zimmerservice kommt tgl. Und leistet gute Arbeit.
Für Kinder hätten wir uns noch etwas mehr Beschädigungen gewünscht, einen Spielplatz oder Fläche um Ball zu spielen. Es gibt zwar einige Tiere aber diese sind für Kinder kaum zugänglich.
Einen ganzen Tag auf den Hof zu verbringen ist mit Kindern nicht gut möglich, zu schnell kommt langeweist auf. Gut, dass in der Region viel zu entdecken gibt.
Das Restaurant hat eine Terrasse mit besagtem tollen Blick, hier kann gefrühstückt und Abendessen werden.
Zum Frühstück:
Käse, Aufschnitt, Obst, Cornflakes, Milch, Joghurt, Kuchen und Brot/Brötchen.
Die Speisen hatten eine gute Qualität, die eher übersichtliche Auswahl ist typisch italienisch und für uns OK. Kaffee sehr gut.
Eierspeisen nur gegen Aufpreis.

Abendessen:
Küche war sehr gut,werben mit regionalen bzw. Eigenen Erzeugnissen, preislich etwas gehoben, aber auch noch ok. Was leider nicht gut war der Service. Dieser war steht's bemüht aber leider reicht das nicht. Immer nett aber bringt Sachen durcheinander, vergisst Teile der Bestellung... Sehr schade ... Für den schlechten Service sind die Preise in Restaurant trotz Qualität und Ausblick wiederum zu hoch.

Une étape franchement dépaysante !

Tout en charme et en rusticité, cette auberge est d'une rare authenticité.
L'accueil du patron est chaleureux.
La cuisine est très savoureuse, mélangeant simplicité et recherche avec une carte variée qui change tous les jours, sans doute pour susciter l'envie d'y retourner (ce qui est plus pratique pour le dîner car cet hôtel est un peu loin de tout).
Optez si possible pour une grande chambre, elles sont plus spacieuses, mais toutes meublées d'une façon tellement originale que le charme est total.

Après avoir lu de très bons avis, nous avions choisi cet hôtel. Certes la route est périlleuse, mais nous le savions. Une fois arrivés, l'entrée de l'accueil n'est pas bien indiqué et nous n'avons mis du temps à trouver. Cet accueil a été assez passable, avec une hôtesse parlant mal anglais, donnant peu d'explication sur le séjour. La découverte de la chambre a été très décevante. Elle doit faire à peine 8 m2. Même pas de chaise pour poser les vêtements. Une lampe de chevet qui ne fonctionne pas et des WC qui fuient en permanence. Nous avons demandé à changer de chambre mais l'hôtel était complet et l'hôtesse ne savait pas si on pourrait changer le lendemain car elle n'avait pas le planning !
Nous espérions nous rattraper sur le repas (car les avis étaient excellents). Les prix étaient très élevés et nous avons testé la pizza pour 8 euros. En fait on nous a servi une petite portion de pizza, qui, si elle était faite maison, de datait pas du jour : pate dure, fromage réchauffé. Bref, vraiment pas bon. Le vin rouge aussi, très acide. Nous avons donc décidé de quitter l'établissement le lendemain bien que nous ayons réservés 3 nuits (et nous espérions une meilleure chambre pour 3 nuits !). A notre départ, nous avons rencontré le patron qui a reconnu que notre accueil n'a pas été à la hauteur, et qui s'est excusé pour la chambre, mais selon lui, cela faisait partie de ce que nous avions réservé. Devant notre déception, il nous a tout de même offert notre repas du soir.

Die Lage ist wirklich Klasse. Aber der Weg von der Autobahn dahin dauert über eine halbe Stunde, durch viele kleine Strassen in Schlangenlinien den Berg hoch. Wer das nicht mag oder ein nicht so sicherer Fahrer ist, sollte nicht dahin fahren. Das Frühstück ist Klasse und sehr gut. Das Abendessen kostet extra, ist sehr gut aber ist nicht ganz billig.

This is really a wonderful place to stay and the host makes it even more wonderful. A family owned B&B-ish hotel.
One improvement, the signs to the hotel could be better since the address is really in middle of no where with zigzag roads towards the top of a mountain! Don't follow Google maps, but the sign on the road!
