What's nearby:
Staying at the Stella Apartment you are right in the centre of Como. In a few minutes you can reach the walled city and stroll through the cobbled streets, shops, bars and restaurants, churches and pretty squares. In 10/15 minutes you can reach: the famous Piazza Duomo, with its marvellous cathedral and its Broletto, both worth a visit; Piazza San Fedele, a pretty little square with the Romanesque basilica of the same name; Via Vittorio Emanuele, one of the most famous streets for shopping; Piazza Volta, very lively for aperitifs and after-dinner drinks all year round; Porta Torre, one of the historical entrances to the walled city.
A 15-minute walk takes you to Piazza Cavour, Como's largest square, in front of which you can take the Navigazione Lago di Como boat to the most famous resorts on the lake (Cernobbio, Blevio, Torno, Laglio, Argegno, Menaggio, Bellagio, Varenna).
On foot, or by renting city bikes, you can reach Villa Olmo and its park by taking the picturesque walk from the Hangar, and Villa Geno by taking the lakeside Viale Geno.
