Perfect location
Very friendly staff at the front desk
However the room didn’t meet up to expectations and can be better. The flooring is quite poor , the bed was nothing to write home about.

Super close to the train station. Literally next to the exit with just 1 min walk. It’s also a close walking distance to the pier to hop on the boat to other islands.
The place is very nice, cozy and modern. Well cleaned. Sofa bed is very comfortable and big unlike other places. There’s snack (biscuits, macaron), tea and water to welcome us. There’s a microwave in the kitchen with all the kitchenware. Bathroom is well equipped with amenities. Water pressure is strong. The owner is also super nice and helpful. He stood in front of the place to make sure we find the place. When we msg him to ask something at night, he offered to come by to help and we’re very glad.

Don't miss Villa Monastero! Lovely gardens walking along the lakeside and tours inside were only offered on weekends. Check hours before going.

The views from Varenna are better than the more southerly locations. There are lovely walks and it’s easy to get to nearby towns. There are many eating places but not much opportunity to shop if self catering.

We knew we were going off season (the hotel has only opened the week we visited in the 2nd week of March) Varenna is a pretty village with breathtakingly beautiful views. But off season there was nowhere open to get a drink or food after 9pm!

Easy walk about town.
Easy walk about town. Wear good walking shoes steps are steep and not always a handrail. Beautiful gardens and scenery. Easy hop on a ferry to go to the other towns. Hike up to the castle is 30 min. I would have felt more comfortable with a walking stick. Make sure to have water.

Picturesque and just charming.
Picturesque and just charming. Loved the waterfront, walking on the bridge, flowers, vibe and restaurants on the water. Ferry efficient and pleasant, easy to access other towns.
Food superb at Nilas - great, friendly waitress - perfect spot on the lake.
Ensure you have plenty gelato. :)
The owners and employees are A+. Our 2-story, 1-bedroom apartment was clean and comfortable. (Bedroom and bathroom were downstairs.) Apartment, bed, linens and temperature were very comfortable. Couch and high-back chair seem old and could use an updating soon. Happy to have a kitchen and a kitchen table and chairs. We paid €12 for a small bottle of wine offered in the apartment. Nice breakfast included in our stay. We loved our time in Varenna and ferrying over to Bellagio. Thank you, Albergo Milano!!!
The location: Villa Torretta is located in the heart of Varenna, a charming village on the shores of Lake Como. It is just a short walk from the village center, with its many restaurants, cafes, and shops. The villa also has stunning views of the lake and the surrounding mountains. The staff: The staff at Villa Torretta is friendly and attentive. They are always happy to help you with anything you need, and they go out of their way to make sure that your stay is enjoyable.
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.

Cute little lakefront hotel in Varenna, we loved it! The staff are exceptional - so friendly and warm, we felt very welcomed. Beautiful property with lake view rooms. Breakfast on the terrace with the most amazing and calm view over the lake - unforgettable. It’s a classic ans typical Italian hotel, rooms are small but the overall atmosphere is very romantic. Perfect for couples.
A beautiful apartment with a stunning panoramic view of the lake, we had several hotel stays on our trip & this was definitely our highlight.
We were greeted punctually by the owner who showed us in & gave advice on restaurants, boat trips, taxis etc.
A large comfortable apartment in the perfect place to explore Varenna. 2 min stroll down steps to cafes, restaurants & the view!
The views of Lake Como were amazing! It was so beautiful and made it worth the stay at this place. The room was nice and spacious with a full kitchen and bathroom. It was about a 10 min walk to the city of Varenna and a little less to the ferry. We were able to spend a lot of time in Varenna while also exploring Bellagio and Menaggio. (Also images are from the balcony!)
the location was fantastic- great views across lake como and sitting on the balcony was a stand out feature. very clean and host friendly and helpful. having train station within walking distance was great and it was cheap to travel to places along the lake. it was also an easy walk to Varenna. there is a small ‘beach’ below apartment and you can swim in the lake.
This apartment was beautiful and in a perfect location close to restaurants, shopping and the shores of Lake Como and ferry in Varenna. We could walk to everything, and yet it was very quiet! There was an awesome view out the windows also of the lake and mountains! I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting the City of Varenna on Lake Como!
Central location was outstanding, 100 metres to ferry and so easy to train. Clean, well presented property with the most beautiful host Mary. Very comfortable bedding, well appointed with a terrace that was ideal for our extended family. The view of Lake Como was breathtaking. Varenna was the most perfect start to our 3 weeks in Italy.

Staying with Renata and Antonio was like staying with Nonna and Nonno. They were charming and friendly. They take pride in being good hosts. The room was very clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was tasty. The location was ideal for exploring Varenna, and easy access to the ferries for seeing the rest of Lake Como.
The location is superb just next to the pier. Few minites walking we can reach the villa monastero.
Varenna is just perfect. Its like we are walking in disneyland. We would definitely recommend to stay at hotel olivedo!
Breakfast is also the best, the scrambled eggs & bacon are excellence and god-like taste.
Just a brilliant hotel, great views, breakfast was fantastic, and the view was incredible. Rooms were great too! For a special occasion in the Italian alps this has to be right up there, Varenna is also a beautiful spot and really handy to the train station,
It was a beautiful and charming property with terraces that overlooked Lake Como. Mauro was an incredible host who did it all to make his guests happy. It was a short walk to center of town and the ferry dock.
Great views of Lake Como! We had plenty of space to settle in and enjoy the apartment. Kitchen was nice to use to cook dinner one night and the patio was great to sit out enjoy the sun and a glass of wine
The location was absolutely amazing. Varenna was a great town to stay in while at lake como and the view from the apartment was lovely. The hosts were very helpful and efficient too!
The hotel had a great location, was easy to find, staff was nice and the breakfast was also fantastic. Would definitely recommend this hotel if you are staying in Varenna.
