Learn more about Varenna

Wandering the lakeside promenade feels like stepping into a painting, with centuries-old fishermen's houses in sunset hues clinging to the shoreline. Villa Monastero offers both a museum and botanical gardens where Mediterranean plants thrive improbably against Alpine backdrops. Take the ferry to explore Villa del Balbianello or Villa Carlotta, where manicured gardens frame lake views that have seduced artists for generations. Climb to Castello di Vezio for panoramas that explain why wealthy Milanese have summered here since Roman times. The 'Lover's Walk' wooden boardwalk hugs the rocky coastline just above the water's gentle lap. After exploring, claim a lakeside café table and watch the light change on distant mountains while sipping local wine – the true Varenna experience.

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay at Ibis Como was excellent. The hotel is very well located, just a 10-minute drive from Lake Como and surrounded by numerous restaurants and shopping centers. Free parking is available, which was a great advantage for us. The room was clean, comfortable, and met all our expectations. Breakfast starts at 6:30 AM, which was very convenient for our schedule, although the variety of options could be improved. The hotel is also only a 30-minute drive from Fiera Milano, making it an ideal choice for business travelers. Having a car is highly recommended. Overall, we had a great stay and would happily return."

The front desk attendants were always very helpful and nice and the hotel was lovely. The view is unmatched.
