Varenna Sweet Home, hotel in Varenna

Located in Varenna, Varenna Sweet Home provides air-conditioned accommodation with a patio and free WiFi. The property has quiet street views.

Super close to the train station. Literally next to the exit with just 1 min walk. It’s also a close walking distance to the pier to hop on the boat to other islands. The place is very nice, cozy and modern. Well cleaned. Sofa bed is very comfortable and big unlike other places. There’s snack (biscuits, macaron), tea and water to welcome us. There’s a microwave in the kitchen with all the kitchenware. Bathroom is well equipped with amenities. Water pressure is strong. The owner is also super nice and helpful. He stood in front of the place to make sure we find the place. When we msg him to ask something at night, he offered to come by to help and we’re very glad.

Varenna Boulevard, hotel in Varenna

Varenna Boulevard is located in Varenna. Free WiFi is included throughout the property.

Location is superb - just a minute or two from the Varenna waterfront or the main square. I had 80 and 75 year old parents with me and they were able to enjoy the town without too much trouble (whereas many other accomodations are too far up the hill or too many steps). On more than one occasion when the weather turned I was able to quickly run up the steps from a waterside cafe to fetch my parents a cap or some sunscreen from the apartment and I'd be back sat down in a few minutes. Host has a wine shop next door and welcomed my family of 5 (one of us stayed elsewhere) with a lovely glass of white wine each. Very nice way to start our trip. Also provided us with a discount on some wine purchases which we enjoyed drinking during some movie nights in the apartment (they had Netflix and Amazon Prime!). Clean apartment and a nice view from one of the windows (can see the lake), while the others face down on the cobblestoned alleyway where you can watch the world go by. Good instructions beforehand on locating and accessing the property - I communicated with the host on WhatsApp a few days ahead of my arrival. In the end I was able to access the apartment using the keysafe without any trouble, but after dropping my stuff off I ended up meeting the host at his wineshop next door not too long after.

Apartment is located a little bit far from the main train station but the owner meet us and transported to the destination by car.

    Perfect location for using the train.

    Perfect location for using the train. It was a little walk to the water and restaurants, but no more than 10 minutes and well worth it. La Veranda, the restaurant above the villa, was excellent. The villa was beautiful. There was a nice outside area with tables, chairs, etc. but unfortunately, we were unable to use them due to weather and time. Our host was wonderful. We left our bags early morning and when we returned, they were in our rooms. One thing we missed is the breakfast which I heard was great, but we had too early of a train. Breakfast is made to order, so could not pre-order. Would absolutely stay again.

    Varenna is beautiful and we enjoyed it, but no taxis available you have to stay right in town otherwise have to walk steep hills back to your villa. Restaurants require reservations. Highly recommend Villa Monesterio for walking and outdoor cafe. Everything was very crowded on Saturday and the ferry from Villa Carlotta was over loaded with people if there had been any accident most people could not get out it was too over crowded.

    Ideal location for visiting other towns on the lake, Bellagio, Menaggio & Tremenzenno all a short distance away. Ferries are frequent & very punctual. One hour train ride into Milan, not that frequent so check the times.

    Don't miss Villa Monastero! Lovely gardens walking along the lakeside and tours inside were only offered on weekends. Check hours before going. A few restaurants within walking distance of the ferry. Bar Moto has spectacular views from the water.

    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!

    We stayed at the annex hotel (not the main hotel) and I highly recommend this little gem! The room was modern, very clean, quiet and comfortable. The bed and bathroom facilities were very good. It overlooked the Varenna ferry and was super close to everything- a wonderful view with a short walk along the shoreline to more eateries and shops in Varenna. The breakfast at the hotel were among the best we had during our Italy visit and the staff was exceptionally sweet to us. We will for sure be back!

    We had a lovely stay at El Lavandee and really enjoyed the comfort of a larger space for our family of 5, the air con, washing machine and, especially the little private beach (through the tunnel under the road). The apartment was well equipped, clean and well styled. It was 2km out of Varenna but there was a great multi story car park on the edge of Varenna which served us well. Daniela and Marco were really helpful and we loved the boat hire they suggested - 3hours on Lake Como was a highlight!

    The location of the hotel is perfect, with a wonderful view over Lake Como. A short walk from the train station at Varenna, less than 10 minutes, as well as being only a 5 minute walk from the ferry. Plenty of bars and restaurants within a few hundred yards of the hotel. Very helpful and friendly team looking after us. The breakfast set up was fantastic, tables overlooking the lake, then, food wise, everything you might want, hot or cold, absolutely loads of healthy options, delicious!

    Varenna was our favorite town in Lake Como and Varenna Guest House was the perfect location to explore the lake from. It is a 5 minute walk to the train station, 2 minute walk to the ferries and a 10 minute walk to all of the restaurants on the promenade. it had all the basics a traveler needs and we were very comfortable throughout our stay. We also appreciated our host Enrico who went out of his way to mail our watch which we forgot at the apartment at checkout.

    I stayed in a single room (10m2) it had everything you could need. Relatively comfy bed, free wifi, clean amenities and good location. The hotel is located in the heart of Varenna and is only a short walk from the train station. The breakfast in the hotel was pretty good and consisted of fresh croissants, bread with various spreads, orange juice, coffee and fried eggs. I also had dinner at the restaurant in the hotel and the food was delicious and well priced.

    The hotel and staff are fantastic. Partial Lake view balcony is nice and the view from the restaurant terrace is beautiful and the food good. If I go to Varenna again I will stay here. The office staff is extremely helpful and friendly...they heard rumor of a train strike the morning of our departure and not only advised us but helped create a travel plan to get us to Milan and on to Venice that solved or problem perfectly. I can't thank them enough.

    B&B Villa Varenna is a particularly charming hotel run by the very welcoming, friendly and kind Mauro. Our room was clean and comfortable with a wonderful lake view. A generous and enjoyable breakfast is provided on the lovely terrace each morning. The location is excellent with easy access to restaurants, cafes, excellent walks, trains and ferries. Our 4 night stay was a highlight of our holiday.

    Location is unbelievable like something out of a movie. Beautiful views of Lake Como from the house and 3 separate outside deck/viewing areas. This place is a villa with tall ceilings and in some cases marble floors. Very spacious. Nice large kitchen with glasses and pots/pans etc. The patio just outside the kitchen has a running stream that was awesome and very calming.

    The views of Lake Como were amazing! It was so beautiful and made it worth the stay at this place. The room was nice and spacious with a full kitchen and bathroom. It was about a 10 min walk to the city of Varenna and a little less to the ferry. We were able to spend a lot of time in Varenna while also exploring Bellagio and Menaggio. (Also images are from the balcony!)

    Modern and clean. Amazing views of Lake Como from the terrace. The host, Viviana, is very welcoming. 30 minute hike to town which we came to enjoy. There are many trails to do this. Especially liked the one past the cemetery. The shower feels so good after a long day of hiking. Take the ferry to Bellagio and have lunch.
