Everything. Alfina was the perfect hostess with the most comfortable of homes. Alfina picked us up from the train station, which was most welcome. I went for my 50th and Alfina arranged flowers and a cake and prosecco, at the request of my partner. So very kind. You will feel so at home here. No need for a big impersonal hotel. Stay here and you will be more than happy.

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.

Offering a garden and garden view, La Casetta Varenna is set in Varenna, 46 km from Como Borghi Train Station and 46 km from Basilica of San Fedele. This beachfront property offers access to a balcony, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is situated 43 km from Circolo Golf Villa d'Este.

The property was beautiful and very clean and well maintained. The owner was so thoughtful and had stocked the house with so many essentials that we were most pleasantly surprised. She was also very helpful with information and tips. Self check in was smooth and easy. The best part is the property and location. It was lovely in the mornings and so peaceful....we were lucky that there was a road closure ahead and hence the traffic that other people have mentioned was non-existent, so I really can't comment on any noise....but the property would more than make up for it. Highly recommended. It is not a far walk from the Ferries for sight seeing for the rest of Como....but it might be a bit of a walk if you have luggage (not much, around 10-15 minutes). We had a car, so this was not a problem.

The spacious villa is fitted with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, bed linen, towels, a TV, a fully equipped kitchen, and a terrace with mountain views. Guests can take in the views of the lake from the patio, which also has outdoor furniture. The accommodation offers a fireplace.

Absolutely stunning waterfront location to enjoy private swims in the lake, along with the fabulous views on the lake and sunset (you have all the afternoon sun)! The property is cozy and comfortable and is better and far more beautiful than one would expect from the photos; Joshua is very friendly and helpful!

Villa Central Varenna is an independent building in the main square of Varenna, in front of Villa Monastero and Villa Cipressi, and 500 metres from the ferry pier linking with Como, Lecco, and Bellagio.

The lounge with fireplace is on the ground floor, and then there are 2 bedrooms per floor. The master bedroom features wooden beams on the ceiling, and the en suite bathroom features a spa bath.

Liz went out of her way to make us feel welcome. She prepared a welcome tray of food and drink which served us well for breakfast the few nights we were there. Also called to make sure we were settled in and comfortable. Wonderful for weddings at Villa Cipressi as I was travelling with babies and needed to be nearby. Appreciated that I did not have to climb up steps and steep slopes, and taxis could easily drop me in front of the doorstep.

    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.

    We were self catering so we organized our food from local artisan outlets and Menaggio's supermarket across the lake. some lunches we had during day trips to other Como villages, and our evening meals were enjoyed in some great local Restaurants including Al Prato recommended by Varenna Garden, La Dolce Vita, Bellagio, Albergo Sol Varenna, and Trattoria La Scalpellino in Novate Mezzola off the north end of Lago Di Como, we loved our garden and view across the lake. and hot water and air conditioning were plentiful.

    This hotel was lovely. It had a pool and access to a lake beach as well as outside dining but it still felt charming and traditional. The rooms were clean and pretty. A big thank you to the staff who were very helpful and friendly and looked after our bags when we arrived early and checked out late. There was also a shuttle service to the station and ferries.
