COMO WAS MISSING A CERTAIN KIND OF HOTEL. NOT ANY MORE



The Posta Design Hotel is a three-star hotel with five-star charm. It’s rigorous, yet absolutely hip. And even though it’s housed in an extraordinary building – i.e. one of the very earliest examples of Rationalist architecture, by Giuseppe Terragni – it wears its importance with elegant aplomb. The recent restoration meticulously matches the new fixtures and furnishings to the spirit of the original main staircase, resulting in a delightful informality that invites guests to relax and feel at home, while maintaining the efficiency so dear to Terragni in the form of streamlined check-in and out, and a badge that allows access to the hotel even when the reception desk is closed.

POSTA DESIGN ATTITUDE: GIUSEPPE TERRAGNI WOULD APPROVE

Not to boast, but the renovation of this small boutique hotel in the center of Como, carried out by the Passera family, would have pleased Giuseppe Terragni, the great architect who designed the original building. The attention to detail and respect for the architect’s vision, from the parquet flooring and furnishings to the bathroom fittings and lighting fixtures, all exude the Rationalist minimalism promoted by Terragni. In a word, pure elegance, no frills. Is that why young designers, trendsetters and international creatives feel perfectly at ease here? Or perhaps it’s the service, impeccable yet without pretense, that makes a stay at the Posta so satisfying?

IT ALL STARTS FROM THE POSTA BISTROT

The day at the Posta Bistrot Post starts early. A coffee accompanied by a selection of breakfast delights. A muffin, a brownie, every imaginable variant of croissant. It continues with the late-morning snack… wait, is it lunchtime already? Time flies when you’re having fun. Meanwhile, there are lots of people to meet, both old friends and new. And between one chat and the next, you're feeling a bit peckish again. The great thing about the Bistrot is that no one here ever says no. A small cheese board, delicious amuses-bouche, a glass of excellent wine… It’s happy hour, check out all these cool people! What are you doing for dinner, shall we eat here? I hear there’s a great concert later tonight….

BOUTIQUE

You’ll probably notice that, at the Posta, there’s a unique fragrance that you’ll only find here and in all the other LarioHotels. Our guests love it, so we’ve created a line of candles and room fragrances that allow you to take a bit of Como home with you. There’s also a line of silk scarves with Terragni-inspired geometric patterns, custom crafted for us, which you’ll only find here.
