The train system to get to Veranna was efficient and clean. The view from the room was delightful across the lake. Also the views to the villages from the boats are superb.

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.

Don't miss Villa Monastero!
Don't miss Villa Monastero! Lovely gardens walking along the lakeside and tours inside were only offered on weekends. Check hours before going.

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. :)
The Margherita house had a great view of Lake Como and you can see Belaggio and Menaggio right from your window. The place was very clean and well kept. Just a 15 minute walk to Varenna restaurants and ferry. Great location!! Francesca was extremely helpful and picked us up from the train station. She gave us great recommendations and suggestions during our stay. It was our first visit to the area so her guidance was very much appreciated!! We also appreciated her checking in from time to time to make sure we were ok and comfortable.

The staff: The staff at Villa Torretta is friendly and attentive. They are always happy to help you with anything you need, and they go out of their way to make sure that your stay is enjoyable.
This is the perfect location to stay in Varenna if travelling by train, it’s just a few minutes walk down hill from the train station. Giulia the host was very helpful, I was unwell during my stay and she fetched me pain killers. The rooms are cosy, wonderful comfy bed and spacious bathroom and great shower. The views from the balcony in the common area are gorgeous and where breakfast is served from - a wonderful stay and location for exploring Lake Como!
Amazing hotel & thank you once again for another amazing stay. We have been coming to Varenna for many years & this is the only place we will stay.
Barbara is so lovely & welcoming & the hotel is so unbelievably clean. All the staff are so friendly & the café is lovely also, with great coffee & a great selection of pasties.
Walking distance from the train station, approximately 1 minute.
A little gem of a hotel on Lake Como, our favourite place.
Where do I begin? Everything from the booking, to the reception to the room and service was impeccable. Diana is a fantastic hostess who cares for the guests and really makes sure everything is kept clean, tidy and fresh. The room was newly renovated, with a bathroom worthy of a five star hotel. All in all it was a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend casa contrada bella for anyone visiting varenna!
The Casa Mary window views looking north and south along Lake Como were fantastic. The location a block from the ferry dock in Varenna was so convenient. You could hop on a ferry and have lunch in Menaggio or Bellagio then return to Varenna before dark. The apartment was very cozy and clean. We were able to cook pasta and play Cascadia while drinking wine and enjoying the endless views.
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.
Staying with Renata and Antonio was like staying with Nonna and Nonno. They were charming and friendly. They take pride in being good hosts. The room was very clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was tasty. The location was ideal for exploring Varenna, and easy access to the ferries for seeing the rest of Lake Como.
Breakfast was enough to get you started for the day. The views were amazing which added to the whole experience of Lake Como and Varenna. The location was away from the main crowds but still had a lot of atmosphere with the buildings and facilities around. The lake view suite was ideal.
We had the suite and it was incredible. The view from our balcony was phenomenal! The room was comfortable, the staff were fantastic, we couldn’t have asked for a better location on the lake. If you’re going to Lake Como, Hotel Royal Victoria is the only place you need to stay!
Very nice place to stay in Varenna ! Definitely not a 1-star hotel, more like 3 stars. 5 mins walking from the train station and with large balcony and great view towards the lake. The room was super clean and with a pleasant smell. Friendly staff. Would love to come back!
The location was really great, we stayed in the partial view room and the view was perfect. Hotel staff were very polite, helpful and friendly. When I come to Varenna again, I will stay here again. It was wonderful to walk among the colorful houses in the small streets.
Very picturesque location looking out over Lake Como. Great walking path into the centre of Varenna, which took about 40 minutes. Lucca was very helpful at check-in, and there was free parking right outside the apartment. It was very quiet and peaceful!
We loved the location, it was close to all the amenities we needed. We were really happy with our choice of staying in Varenna and just visiting Bellagio instead of staying. Varenna and del duca was peaceful and beautiful!
Varenna is a beautiful town, and Mauro and Paola were the perfect hosts, full of helpful information. The hotel is beautiful, and our room was glorious with a fantastic view out to the lake and the mountains.
Beautiful area of Varenna. Near restaurants, walking paths, villas with gardens and views of Lake Como. Good breakfast, friendly staff, especially the lady who served us breakfast.
Beautiful studio apartment located close to restaurants and wonderful Lake Como. Very comfortable bed and nice little table and chairs for two outside with the lake view.
Large room, comfortable bed with an amazing lake view. Hotel is in a great location, close to everything in Varenna and opposite the ferry stop. Breakfast was nice.
This lovely boutique hotel is wonderful. Breakfast is delicious. The staff great and the rooms are comfortable with a lovely view. We hope to visit again.
