The garden was beautiful, room was comfortable, and breakfast was delicious. Only issue is that they only have one check-in counter with a lot going on, especially with all of the people in line trying to get into the garden. Overall, it was great.
This lakefront hotel is a 2-minute walk from the pier in Varenna. The historic 19th-century building features a terrace with panoramic views of Lake Como.

LOVED this gorgeous property on the hill! It’s a peaceful sanctuary away from the crowded streets in Varenna below. Stunning!! Only noise was really the chickens.
The staff was so kind and Stefano was so helpful, going above & beyond for us!
Would 100% stay here again.

Attilio met us at the door to welcome us and explain everything, he was really nice and helpful. The location was truly amazing. Convenient two minute walk from the train station so you don't have to carry luggage up/down into the other parts of town. The main attractions are only a 10 minute walk away. The place looks to be freshly renovated and they thought about all the little details for a comfortable stay. The best accommodation we stayed in during our trip around Italy. The sofa bed is well.. a sofa bed so not the most comfortable sleep, but it does accommodate an extra person or two. There is a separate bedroom with a double bed which was very comfortable. It also has an outdoor area, which is lovely. We truly loved staying there and wish we had longer. Thank you for everything
Guests staying at this apartment have access to free Wifi. The air-conditioned apartment is composed of 2 separate bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen with an oven and a microwave, and 1 bathroom.

The location was planning perfect. Varenna is beautiful lake town with excellent views and a perfect jumping off point for the lake. Hermes was an amazing host and wonderful person. We loved our stay and will definitely come again.
Overlooking Lake Como, Hotel du Lac Varenna offers accommodations with free WiFi in Varenna. Guests can enjoy meals at the on-site restaurant and a drink at the bar.
An amazing view and really nice and helpful staff.
Facing Varenna’s Piazza San Giorgio, Albergo Del Sole is less than 328 feet from the shores of Lake Como. It offers classic-style rooms, a restaurant with pizzeria and a snack bar.
Beautiful view from our room, perfect stay in Varenna!
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!
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!
Giuli was a fantastic host. From arriving (we were early) she gave us our room. Sent me lots of information and recommendations for in and around Varenna, on WhatsApp. All were amazing!
The room was very clean and had everything you needed. If we asked for anything, it was left within an hour!
The location was perfect. 5 mins walk from Varenna Esio Station. 3 mins walk to ferry port and 8 mins walk to the square. Nothing is far in Varenna.
We 100% recommend staying at Tosca House 2. It's a wonderful base for all things Lake Como 😊
We stayed in the annex and our room was brand new with a huge outside terrace. Everything about the room was spectacular. And everyone who works there are super kind and helpful. The breakfast is great as well, with many items to choose from including freshly made baked goods. They also offer made to order eggs and bacon and coffee drinks. The morning cappuccino was always a treat. And the best part? The hotel is right next to the ferry making it super easy to visit all the towns in Lake Como.
Everything. I was totally in love with the place.
They were really loving to us, i felt i was home. Will totally recommend this place if you want to go to Lago di Como (Varenna). If you go by train, when you arrive you can see the hotel just in front of you. It is really close to everything you can walk. Mauro and his wife explain everything to us.
I really miss the place, i almost cried haha.
Kind regards to Mauro, his wife and the dog Roosvelt

An AMAZING location for staying in Varenna. 2 minutes walk to the rock beach to swim/lay out, 5 minutes walk to the train, and maybe a 10 minute walk to the main square / more historic downtown area. A great location to use as a base for enjoying lake Como (can take a Ferry to Bellagio and other cities on the lake) but also day-tripping to other nearby cities (Bergamo, Milan, etc). The staff was very nice and helpful, and loved having a view of the lake from my balcony.
The Villa it was simply perfect! The location, room, view, everything! We are coming back soon for sure! It's close to everything you need and want to see. The host Roberto is the best, he helped us from the train station and drove us to Varenna anytime we needed. He even took us to see the whole lake by boat. The experience was beautiful and writing this makes me want to book the next trip already. Lake Como, the villa and Roberto is worth visiting more than once
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.
Everything! A beautiful apartment in a stunning location. the view down the lake from the balcony was wonderful, everything I dreamed of when coming to Lake Como. The location is right in the middle of the attractions in Varenna, but also very quiet. Alexandro was an excellent host, very welcoming and helpful about everything you will need for your stay. waking up to the beautiful view from your bed was very special.
Everything about b&b il bolentino varenna is phenomenal. place is located in short walking distance to varenna esino train-station and ferry ride to bellagio ,como and other side of lake . famous villa monastero is in 10 minutes walking distance. restaurant and cafe are all around.Surrounded by beautiful view of lake .They serves very nice and huge breakfast. you will not regret in staying this place .
A beautiful apartment with a stunning panoramic view of the lake, we had several hotel stays on our trip & this was definitely our highlight.
We were greeted punctually by the owner who showed us in & gave advice on restaurants, boat trips, taxis etc.
A large comfortable apartment in the perfect place to explore Varenna. 2 min stroll down steps to cafes, restaurants & the view!
the location was fantastic- great views across lake como and sitting on the balcony was a stand out feature. very clean and host friendly and helpful. having train station within walking distance was great and it was cheap to travel to places along the lake. it was also an easy walk to Varenna. there is a small ‘beach’ below apartment and you can swim in the lake.
Property was clean, good size and had all we needed. View of Lake Como from the patio was amazing (both day and night) , and unit was in remodeled condition. Washer and dryer and cute “retro” fridge were perfect. Bed was very comfortable. Luca our host was inviting, took care of questions promptly and gave advance notice of our stay
The location of the hotel is ideally situated within a short walk from the Varenna train station and the ferry points to visit other locations on Lake Como and further afield. The room was as pictured ideal for a single person and the brekfast which was included with the booking was also good.
The property is gorgeous. It's a whole one bedroom apartment with private entry and a patio complete with furniture and view over lake Como and mountains. Fully equipped kitchen stuffed with everything you would need for staying there forever.
Perfect location, large and comfortable room and good breakfast. The ferry station was a short walk away. The restaurant downstairs was always busy, and although we didn't eat there the food looked great. Perfect hotel for our time in Varenna
The location and especially the restaurant's terrace are certainly the best places to be in Varenna.
For an Italian hotel, the breakfast is rich and very good. It is served on the terrace on sunny days.
