We had an excellent couple of days at this hotel. The location is perfect, overlooking Lake Como and across to the Bellagio peninsula. Picturesque and idyllic, especially at sunset from the balcony. The staff were friendly, helpful and accommodating. The breakfast spread was large with a selection of gluten free options available. The only thing absent was non-dairy milks but to be fair I did not ask if there were plant based alternatives available. My biggest regret about our stay was that we only had two nights.

Horrible customer service. I thought I had cancelled my booking and could not come to Varenna do a family emergency. The hotel still charged me $800 for a room I didn’t even stay in. Do not book this hotel as they will not refund you if something comes up. Extremely disappointed in customer service.

Too much dust in the room and room service did a sloppy job. The internet service was very slow, unexpected from a pricey hotel.

Great location and a lovely old hotel. We booked at very late notice so probably and understandably got one of the least attractive rooms immediately above the main entry doors, which was a bit noisy and not private if blinds were open, but otherwise my wife and I had a lovely stay
