The location is perfect for enjoying Lake Como. While the rooms are basic and fairly dark, the lakeside views are a must!

Great location on the main square in Varenna. Excellent breakfast on the terrace. Nice swimming pool with bar service, and you are right on the lake. Clean, modern bathroom in our room.

Traci, United States of America

You cannot get a more perfectly situated hotel in Varenna. Steps from everything. View was incredible. Breakfast was typical Europe... meaning waaay better than in the States. Excellent selection of food, friendly service. The complimentary Haribo selections at the front desk were a nice touch.

Jeffrey, United States of America

Just about everything else. Excellent morning buffet breakfast.

Raymond, United States of America

Air conditioning vibrated so loudly we could not sleep. We complained 3x and it was never fixed. We had to ask 3 x for an extra blanket

The room are well heated, we had the door open in December
From the moment we walked in the team were fantastic. The hotel is beautiful and has such a great outlook. We had a lake view room which is worth the extra. We spend the afternoon on the balcony with a glass of wine.

Super slow internet suitable only for basic texting via viber and similar apps and they charge extra for faster internet speed. It was so slow I relied on my other phone which was on 3G as a hotspot for my other devices. And while the price includes buffet breakfast, they charge extra if you want eggs fried or an omelette prepared.

“Fantastic vintage hotel on Lake Como”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Superior Double Room with Lake View and Balcony
- • Stayed 2 nights
No complaints or deficiencies. Would definitely return to this hotel on a future visit.
Beautiful vintage hotel on the shore of Lake Como! We booked a suite, which came with more space, including a faux fireplace (with artificial smoke that made it look quite real) and a huge balcony (probably 3x the size of the normal balcony). The bathroom was of good size and came with all expected amenities, including nice toiletries, a heated towel rack, separate bidet, and colored lighting in the shower. We received a bottle of Proseco, which we were able to enjoy on our balcony and in front of our fireplace. The pool looked great, although with our stay in early October, we did not get to use. There is also lake access, and we did see some young kids jumping in the cold water. There is a nice outside bar with plenty of outdoor seating. The breakfast is everything you would expect for a "full European" breakfast at a quality hotel. We enjoyed the restaurant for dinner one evening, and the food was well prepared and flavorful. Breakfast is served in the main restaurant, which has lake views. There is also a more casual cafe-style restaurant at the front of the hotel, which is has great views of the piazza and Varenna's church, but we did not have time to use it with our 2 night stay.

Dinner at the hotel was a bit over priced compared to other fine dining restaurants in Varenna. Also, our dinner was being attacked by numerous fruit flies, so many of them. The hotel had fruit in the candle holders, why do that? That must attract the flies. The restaurant manager didn’t say anything or helped.
Beautiful views! Amazing location. The hotel is lovely.
