Parcheggio Santarella, near the Basilica of Sant’Abbondio, is one of Como’s best deals for day-trippers: an arranged public lot charging around €5 for the day — one guest cites €3 for up to eleven hours — within comfortable walking distance of the whole city centre. The catch is demand: it fills up, with reviewers reporting it full by mid-morning, so arrive early or be ready to wait for someone to leave. It is an open lot rather than a secure garage, and one guest reported a break-in to a van, so do not leave valuables on show. For a cheap, all-day base close to the centre, though, it is hard to argue with the price.
