Where to Stay in Como City (2026): The Areas Worth Booking and the Ones I’d Skip

Please don’t sleep on Como City, it is a lovely town in Lake Como and the best part is Como is also open all year around. I ended up in Como City completely by accident, and it turned out to be one of the best travel mistakes I’ve ever made.

ABOUT COURTNEY

Courtney's profile picture for www.whatsupcourtney.com blog
Hey! I’m Courtney, traveling has been my happy space especially with my day job.

I’m not quite the tick of the list person but do love to visit the sights stress free, find that indulgence at a good price, and also good local food and places that not everyone has been to yet.

I hope you find your next inspiration here!

How I Fund My Travels

You can start a small online income stream while you travel.

A lot of readers ask how travel bloggers actually make money. One way is running small online stores or digital products.

I tested a few platforms, and Shopify is the easiest one to set up and  it takes about 20 minutes.

You can try it here: Start your free Shopify trial

Stay Safe Online while You Travel

Public WiFi in airports, cafés and hotels can expose your personal data and hacking.

You need a VPN to help protect your connection and lets you access your favourite sites while abroad. I use NordVPN for security:
