Gorgeous place and view
Communication with our host and his staff was excellent and the neighbors were kind to us as well. The house is beautiful and restored to a better than new level. Walking throughout the town and it’s many cafes and restaurants was a delight.

A most relaxing and refreshing vacation
We had never stayed at Lake Como before and had only really heard of Como and Belaggio. Our daughter helped us select the Pilissy Guest House, primarily due to its position on the Lake Como Greenway. We are big walkers and it was appealing that we could visit several towns by foot. This place was PERFECT for us. Not only was it well situated, but the owner and property managers provided immediate responses to our questions. And the views were unparalleled. If you want to stay in the middle of tourists and hustle, with overly expensive restaurants, don’t come here. But if you want a relaxing vacation, in a small, historic village, with plenty of local, family owned restaurants nearby, this is the place. We couldn’t have been more pleased. P.S.- if you want to visit the larger towns on the lake, the ferry is only a 12 minute walk away.

Breathtaking View from the Tree Tops
Our family truly enjoyed being part of the Ossuccio community in this gorgeous, well-maintained home. The view from every window & balcony was unparalleled. Atilla & Debora took care of our every need and provided tons of information before our arrival and after. Debora even drove us to the grocery store - an act that was above and beyond generous! We were greeted with Prosecco and nuts and the house was well-stocked to make cooking a breeze (spices, olive oil, tin foil - basic items you need that many houses don’t provide). We were fortunate enough to be there during the festival of San Giovanni and had front row seats to the fireworks from the comfort of our bedroom! We highly recommend staying here and are grateful to Debora & Atilla for their hospitality.

perfect location and well-maintained guest home
Beautiful town situated in the heart of Lake Como overlooking L'isola di Comacina. We stayed a week and found all the amenities to our enjoyment. Atilla arranged for a chilled bottle of Prosecco and a small snack to be presented upon our arrival. The check-in and out process was efficient. The kitchen worked very well for breakfasts and a few lunches. The outdoor patio and terraces provided ample space for an aperitivo. Atilla check in on us via WhatsApp many times to ensure that everything was to our satisfaction. Grazie mille Attila!

Hey Ladies and Gentlemen!
My Name is Gabor Atilla Pilissy-Sipos. I am the owner of the Pilissy Guest House. Although I am not of Italian origin, my roots lie in Hungary, and I am also Australian. My family has a history spanning nearly 900 years. Five hundred years ago, my ancestors studied in Italy while in the service of the king. Additionally, I have graduated from both an engineering and physical education university. Thanks to my degrees, I can work anywhere. I constantly travel and seek out challenges whenever possible. I enjoy immersing myself in different cultures, customs, and meeting local people. I believe this is the best way to experience foreign villages, countrysides, and cities.

Why they chose this property

purchased a house here because it is one of the most beautiful places in the world. The unique microclimate makes the weather here exceptional. In fact, the weather in the Alpine mountains resembles that of the Mediterranean. I have a deep admiration for Italian culture and historic buildings, and I am fortunate to have many Italian friends.

I would choose this house because it is an old building with a stunning ceiling and a traditional design. In addition to its unique interior style and layout, it offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city and the mountains.

What makes this property unique

There is a hidden gem where tranquility envelops the evenings, providing a serene and peaceful ambiance. Restful slumber awaits you, as you can freely open the windows and let the gentle breeze lull you to sleep. From every level, the balconies offer breathtaking vistas, allowing you to soak in the beauty of the surroundings. Our guest house boasts a captivating traditional design, reflecting the essence of Italian countryside living.
