Albergo Milano, hotel in Varenna

Featuring a large terrace with spectacular views of Lake Como, Albergo Milano is a stylish hotel in the heart of Varenna.

The owners and employees are A+. Our 2-story, 1-bedroom apartment was clean and comfortable. (Bedroom and bathroom were downstairs.) Apartment, bed, linens and temperature were very comfortable. Couch and high-back chair seem old and could use an updating soon. Happy to have a kitchen and a kitchen table and chairs. We paid €12 for a small bottle of wine offered in the apartment. Nice breakfast included in our stay. We loved our time in Varenna and ferrying over to Bellagio. Thank you, Albergo Milano!!!

Varenna Sweet Home, hotel in Varenna

This vacation home provides air-conditioned accommodations with a patio and free Wifi. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a car rental service is also available.

Such an easy walk to the train station and the ferry. There is a luggage storage at the train station if you arrive early. It is convenient because all the streets and up or down, few level, and lots of stone. Varenna is a beautiful place. The apartment had everything, including a patio for relaxing evenings outside. We used the washing machine, and it did fine. There is a clothes line to dry. There is an espresso maker and it works great. We were so very comfortable all 3 days and the place is very large. I would definitely recommend it to a close friend, and come back myself!

    The views from Varenna are better than the more southerly locations. There are lovely walks and it’s easy to get to nearby towns. There are many eating places but not much opportunity to shop if self catering.

    We knew we were going off season (the hotel has only opened the week we visited in the 2nd week of March) Varenna is a pretty village with breathtakingly beautiful views. But off season there was nowhere open to get a drink or food after 9pm!

    Easy walk about town.

    Easy walk about town. Wear good walking shoes steps are steep and not always a handrail. Beautiful gardens and scenery. Easy hop on a ferry to go to the other towns. Hike up to the castle is 30 min. I would have felt more comfortable with a walking stick. Make sure to have water.

    Picturesque and just charming.

    Picturesque and just charming. Loved the waterfront, walking on the bridge, flowers, vibe and restaurants on the water. Ferry efficient and pleasant, easy to access other towns. Food superb at Nilas - great, friendly waitress - perfect spot on the lake. Ensure you have plenty gelato. :)

    Loved Varenna. So beautiful, straight out of a movie scene.

    Loved Varenna. So beautiful, straight out of a movie scene. Do a wine tasting, there are many options there. There is a lot of uneven cobblestones and a million stone stairs. Have sturdy shoes with grip. You walk everywhere. I wouldn’t recommend for someone who is unsteady, walks with a cane, has bad knees. I saw people with baby strollers, but I wouldn’t recommend it, seemed awful with all of the stairs. Not a kid friendly location. Food was fantastic…eat all the bread, it’s not like in the US. Take a cooking class. Take the ferry to Bellano and visit Orrido di Bellano. Next time, I would not bother with Bellagio visit. I would’ve liked the boat ride on the lake and botanical gardens…next time.

    Lots of options throughout the area - not just Varenna.

    Lots of options throughout the area - not just Varenna. So why Varenna?Easy access via train without needing more hops to get somewhere else. Probably more things in other villages if you're looking for a party scene. We tend to stay out later than some and we found enough places to seek out in our three nights. This may have included buying a bottle of wine and enjoying it out on the balcony, but still. Just liked the vibe as subjective as that is. Special shout outs to Hotel Olivedo, Locanda del Cavallino, Taxi Boat Varenna and Osteria Quatro Pass.

    Spacious room, comfy bed, nice kitchen - and gorgeous view of the lake and mountains from the window and the terrace. The town's center and ferry dock is close by, just a 5 minute walk and there's a nice store down the road. Oscar was very welcoming and helpful - explained about the lake attractions, left us the remote control for the parking. We loved Varenna (it's much prettier than Bellagio btw) and our stay at Residenza Decimina.

    Beautiful hotel located in the best place in Varenna - right in front of the lake, opposite the ferry port and close to everything important. The hotel itself is in an authentic building and brings you back in time with the beautiful and cosy interior. Our room was big and very comfortable with a nice small terrace and a magnificent lake view!! The breakfast is also quite good with the menu options as well.

    The staff were so friendly and helpful at this beautiful hotel right at the ferry station in Varenna. The view from our room was spectacular - over Lake Como and the town itself. We loved the convenience to the ferry, and to the swimming beach in the lake. One night we hopped on the ferry and had dinner in another town and then returned and headed right to bed. The breakfast was delicious.

    We were able to meet Oscar who provided us with keys on arrival. The room was easily accessible by elevator, was comfortable and spacious. We were also able to bring our dog and there was enough space in the room for the three of us. The location was great, being so close (3 minutes) to the Varenna-Esino station, and had a beautiful view of Lake Como.

    Central location was outstanding, 100 metres to ferry and so easy to train. Clean, well presented property with the most beautiful host Mary. Very comfortable bedding, well appointed with a terrace that was ideal for our extended family. The view of Lake Como was breathtaking. Varenna was the most perfect start to our 3 weeks in Italy.

    There had been a landslide in the area so train travel was limited. The host/hotel concierge was very helpful in providing needed information that helped us make connections with train and boats. The hotel restaurant served excellent fish from Lake Como. A lovely location in the town square of Varenna and picturesque establishment.
