Hotel Montecodeno, hotel in Varenna

Located in Varenna and only 3 minutes on foot from Lake Como, Hotel Montecodeno is very close to a ferry boat stop. It offers free WiFi and rooms with views of the garden and mountains.

We needed a room for 3, it was small with 3 beds but spotless and had everything we needed. Bathroom/shower was larger than others we had on the trip. I was a little concerned from other reviews but we had a great stay here. No view but Varenna is tiny and views are easy to get, you don't want to stay in your room! We had a nice courtyard right outside our door by a trail that winds above the town. And it's close to the train station. Breakfast was lovely, the facilities are in great condition. We also were worried about the wifi, my son had a job interview while we were there. The room had a small desk and good light, and the wifi was fine for him.

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!!!

    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!

    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.

    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. :)

    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.

    We enjoyed our stay here. Everything in the apartment was a bit dated, but clean and in good condition. The apartment included the use of not one, but three terraces, each with increasingly better views of Varenna and Lake Como. Wow. Enzo and Antonella were great hosts. This is a private apartment on the lowest level of their home, but it did have a separate entrance. The washing machine worked well, and they had a drying rack for us to use.

    Very charming hotel in the center of Varenna old town and right on the waterfront. Our room was actually a small apartment under the roof of Casa Rossa. With a magnificent roof terrace. What a view across Lake Como and, if you stand up, even a small part of charming Varenna itself. The apartment has a small kitchen. Breakfast and dinner on the hotel restaurant terrace was surprisingly good - not only because of the location. Very friendly staff.

    We loved everything about the hotel! We didn't include breakfasts with our booking, but chose to have our coffee, pastry and (freshly squeezed) orange juice there every morning, because the atmosphere was so relaxed and friendly. We've only been back in England for one day, and are missing it already! We had a great holiday in Varenna, and Hotel Beretta played a big part in making it a really special holiday. Many thanks to all the staff!

    Everything. The location. The views of Lake Como, with a private balcony, were unparralled. The included breakfast was fantastic. It is a 5 min walk to the ferry, a 2 min walk to the main area by the water with bars, has it's on restaurant and bar. The staff, particularly Tatiana, was fantastic. Some of the most helpful, warm, friendly, people I've ever met. they also have their own parking lot.

    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.

    Cute little lakefront hotel in Varenna, we loved it! The staff are exceptional - so friendly and warm, we felt very welcomed. Beautiful property with lake view rooms. Breakfast on the terrace with the most amazing and calm view over the lake - unforgettable. It’s a classic ans typical Italian hotel, rooms are small but the overall atmosphere is very romantic. Perfect for couples.

    The Hotel Olivedo had the most wonderful location. We had Room 22 with a balcony overlooking the harbor. We thought it would be a little loud, but not at all. The activity for the ferries started well after we awakened. The breakfast was lovely and the room was large and comfortable. The hotel is a historic one, so not shiny new but it was charming and a good value.

    A wonderful small hotel by the ferry station in Varenna (around 5-7 min promenade to the central area of the town). Cozy and impeccably clean! The room was spacious and airy. A balcony has a nice lake view. The bed was a bit hard but still quite comfortable for my taste. Altogether, the hotel exceeded my expectations! Warmly recommend.

    Great location but would have struggled without a car. Views were spectacular from the apartment . The only facility missing was air con which made sleeping really uncomfortable as we stayed during a heatwave and temperstures reached over 45°c. Varenna and Bellagio were beautiful.
