Very nice hotel in Varenna. The staff were super helpful. We were worried that our luggage service may have issues finding the place since it’s along Lake Como but we didn’t have any issues!

Being in Verenna allows for all the beauty of Lake Como, without the chaos of Bellagio. It is also easy to take a quick (and beautiful) ferry ride to Bellagio if you so wish! The facilities themselves are very nice and have a resort feal to them.
