    A charming hotel (and very busy restaurant) with well-designed rooms on Varenna's main square, a 10-minute walk uphill from the trains and ferries - best reached along the main road (rather than the waterside path) if you're walking with luggage. Very close to the town parking garage and the two garden villas as well. Bags can be left at reception until check-in time, and there's an elevator. Breakfast was very good, with eggs on request, and lovely smiley staff.

    location, service, kindness, helpfulness. staff at reception were wonderful! wonderful gluten free breakfast with so much choice 😍, lovely lakeside terrace for a cup of tea in the dark with the gorgeous sound of the lake lapping. and an amazingly comfortable bed! slippers & bath robe included. seriously above my normal budget but well worth the treat, waking up to sunset creeping over the mountains with the almost full moon reflecting in the calm lake

    Amazing place!! Gorgeous little hotel a stones throw away from the train station. Fantastic staff on check in, amazing housekeeping & one of the cleanest places I've ever stayed in. Lovely coffees & gorgeous pastries available in the hotel in the morning time. Short 5 minute walk to the ferry and surrounded by lots of cafes and restaurants. Staff were all fantastic and I could not believe this place has only 1 star as it is 5 star for their services provided & staff. Couldn't recommend it enough.
