Varenna Lover's Walk Hotels

"We love that our room had a balcony. The hotel staff were very helpful. The restaurant is independent and the staff there is not so friendly. We would stay there again. Plus, you can walk to the train station and the lake easily. We recommend! "

"Nothing to complain about at all, perfect setting and excellent service "

"Not 5*. Needs a major update and rooms have odd smells unfortunately "

"We loved our stay in Varenna! The host gave excellent directions on how to access the apartment. We brought a car and were able to park in the nearby public parking lot. Walking to the place involved a short steep downhill on cobblestones and several flights of stairs to the apartment, so that is good to know if you have physical limitations. But, we loved it and would go back!"

"The staff were wonderful and the hotel was impeccable. All amenities were extremely thoughtful."

"Beautiful view "

"The good: - The view from the balcony is amazing. - Well equipped for 4 people. - Very spacious overall. - Close enough to the train station and main roads. The bad - one of the comforters seemed dirty - the internet connection was very spotty Overall a good place to stay"

"I normally do not write reviews; but, wanted to for this hotel. It is a small quaint hotel. It actually has a small pool and hot tub with incredible views. It is actually located in Vezio right outside of Varenna. At first, I was concerned about the location from Varenna. However, Rita the proprietor made sure we had transportation from the train station as well as to and from all of our points of interest. We seriously wanted for nothing. Rita and the staff made sure all our needs were taken care of. She even cooked us lasagna dinner herself when the local restaurant was closed. I have stayed in many hotels but never received this level of hospitality. We actually would say and continue to say where is “Rita” because this would not happen. She took care of every need and would not let us be without a ride, food, umbrella, etc. If you are planning to visit this area you will not regret staying at the Hotel Diffuso il Portichetto. Rita and her staff will treat you like family! I can’t wait to go back!! "

"This lovely apartment was perfect for our stay in Varenna. It was right up the lane from the boat docks, had a gorgeous view of the lake, and was just a five minute walk along the beautiful lakeside promenade into the main part of town. Being set a little bit apart, I think made it, especially quiet and peaceful. Our hosts were so lovely and made every effort to make sure our arrival, stay, and even departure, we’re easy and smooth."
