Palace Grand Hotel Varese

A destination hotel sitting above Varese with gardens overlooking Lake Varese below. We were warmly greeted at reception and having arrived in the evening after a flight and drive, we chose to eat in the restaurant. Good move - the food was very good but surpassed by our waiter's enthusiasm to make crepe suzette at our table, which was excellent and thoroughly entertaining. We stayed in May, so the pool was closed and left before exploring the area but glad we stayed here - charming, historic and whilst there are areas that require a little TLC, it adds to the character. Rooms were comfortable, well equipped and a nice bathroom.

Thé staff were great, friendly and helpful. We’re glad we stayed there and are looking forward to going again

Cocktails where gorgeous. Staff friendly and amenable. Breakfast was fresh and plentiful

Clean room, parking

Old grand hotel. Absolutely fantastic staff. Good dinner. Property definitely needs reno.
