Downtown Varenna by George - Centro Histórico apt. Lago de Como

Location wise this property was excellent and the apartment itself had everything we needed.Check in was with Ettore (a lovely gentleman) who doesn’t actually speak English which didn’t really affect check in however did make it difficult to ask any additional questions. We are over 65 travellers and the 30 stairs to get up to the apartment added a degree of difficulty getting our suitcases up the stairs on check in and down when we left. The spiral staircase (which I must admit I did see in the photos) did prove to be a little difficult especially going to use the bathroom through the night.The surrounding restaurants were all fantastic - Alberto del Sole, La Scarpetta, Il Cavatappi and Osteria Quattro Pass. All within a minutes walk of the apartment. View from the upstairs bedroom was magical at night. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay but think we may have reconsidered where we had stayed taking into consideration our age.

Incredible apartment which made our stay in beautiful Varenna so enjoyable. The host was great in being helpful, super responsive. We loved our stay. The location is the best as it is centrally located and even more within a few steps (literally) of several great restaurants, wine bar and the water area. My wife and I just loved our visit and will definitely reserve this apartment for our next visit. Highly recommended!

Wonderfully perfect. This home is in an absolutely wonderful location. Easy access to anywhere in Varenna. The home itself has all the comforts of home. It was very clean and comfortable. Ettore was highly communicative and available. The I highly recommend it.

Lovely top floor apartment is centrally located in Varenna, just a short distance from the main piazza and has everything provided for a comfortable stay. The bed was comfortable and the air conditioning welcome. The property owner is friendly, has excellent communication skills, is very knowledgeable about the area and offered excellent recommendations. You may even meet his charming father. I highly recommend!

This is our second time staying here. We love the location, as it sits atop a wine bar. It is also close to some of the best food in Varenna. The host has always been nice, and he is easy to contact. We love this place and highly recommend it.
