Could you please post the name of the hotel you like in Como? My elderly aunt and uncle will be flying out of Malpensa in a couple of months, and I also convinced them that while Milan is a worthwhile stopover for a day or two, it is just as easy to head straight for the airport from Como. It also makes for a much more pleasant spot to end a tour of Italy. And I say this as a minority of one who loves Milan.

By the way, I believe there are regular shuttle buses from Como to Malpensa. If I can dig up the information, I will post it.

Ciao, Joel
