The hotel had large and spacious rooms, but the quality was not up to par for a 4-star establishment. The service was wonderful and accommodating, making our stay special. The location was beautiful, overlooking the lake with plenty of seating options, but some front desk staff were unhelpful.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were comfortable with a huge bathroom, but the church bell tower ringing every half hour from 7 am made it tough to sleep past 7. The poor illumination was a downside despite the view of the town square and church opposite.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, modern, and offered stunning views of Lake Como from the huge balcony and brand new bathroom with a large shower and great water pressure. However, the service was lacking, except for one lady who was helpful. The location was perfect for exploring Lake Como, but there were some issues with seating. The dining options were delicious but coffee was disappointing.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was breathtaking, offering a relaxing and picturesque setting by the lakeside, close to a charming town beach. However, the rooms were dark and small, massively overpriced for what they offered. The service was a hit or miss, with some staff being extremely rude, but others were helpful and knowledgeable.

The rooms felt like a dark cupboard, and although they had doors opening to a tiny standing balcony, they were not worth the high price. They were small and dark, not living up to the expectations.

The dining experience was delightful with a wide selection of items, but the $20 charge for breakfast seemed a bit steep. The fruit lacked freshness, giving the impression that it had been stored improperly.

The hotel offers a mix of great and not-so-great features. The rooms are spacious, light, and comfortable with a beautiful balcony overlooking Lake Como, perfect for a romantic stay. However, the rooms required multiple drainings per day due to the lack of an external condensation line. The location is outstanding, centrally situated in Varenna by Lake Como, allowing easy access to the main square and stunning views. While the dining experience was amazing, it came at a high price. The service was a mix of extremely helpful and friendly staff but with some shortcomings in facility offerings.

My stay at this hotel was truly exceptional. The rooms were not only comfortable but also quite spacious by European standards, making the extra $ well worth it. However, being above the kitchen meant some noise carried through the air con. The service provided was top-notch, the staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. The location on Lake Como was truly magical, with stunning views of the lake and mountains. The dining experience was fabulous, with probably the best free breakfast I've ever had. The facilities were impressive and well-maintained, offering everything I needed for a relaxing stay.
