Hardware wallets, Paper wallets and Air-gapped, "cold-storage" wallets are generally considered the "safest"... Of course, they still require that you set them up and use them in a correct and safe manner for them to actually be "safe".

Desktop wallets can also be "safe" if used correctly and common sense is exercised with regards to computer security (don't download random software, check digital signatures of downloaded wallets, regular virus/malware scans etc)

Online (web) wallets and exchanges are generally considered the least safe.

I wrote a thread about this and I personally prefer Trezor,
while my 'guide' is about Ethereum, I also mention various wallets and ways of security!

(if anyone has any input to what I wrote there, kindly comment it in the thread because I'm always looking to learn more for safety!)

With the TREZOR you should still have a paper wallet backup for it.

The TREZOR key generation is on the device though, so it avoids the situation where you generate your paper wallet on a compromised machine and therefore your keys are compromised. It's also easy to use the TREZOR if you want to spend from your cold wallet without compromising it.
