Beautiful and convenient location in the heart of Varenna. Very short walk to “Lovers Walk” which will bring you directly into the marina area. Many bars and restaurants. Gorgeous amenities including breakfast and a terrace for drinks and food. Accommodating staff. Would absolutely visit again!

Beautiful historic hotel with pleasant and helpful staff. I celebrated my birthday while staying there and discovered a bottle of wine and note from the staff in my room.

A beautiful old villa with amazing gardens surrounding it. Room lovely, breakfast wonderful. Staff a bit frazzled, often would not (or could not) answer phone. Shuttle bus could not meet us at ferry with our bags for example as no one answered phone when we called. Fortunately they could take us to train next day. I think hosting a wedding and also keeping regular guests happy may have been a bridge too far. Still I would recommend it to others with these caveats as it’s a really beautiful property and once we were there everyone was very attentive and welcoming

If you are thinking about staying in Lake Como then you’ll want to stay in Varenna (Bellagio is touristy and crowded). Villa Cipressi is lovely. Absolutely wonderful hotel inside and out. The gardens are exquisite, the location is perfect, and the hotel itself is fantastic. Great rooms and facilities but even better staff. Everyone there is great and they go out of their way to assist if needed. Can’t recommend this place enough. Don’t overthink, just book it

Marco was wonderful. He arranged transport from Milan Airport to Varenna. He assisted me with the reservation when I thought I might have to cancel. My daughter met him in person - I missed meeting him but his lovely wife Tanya introduced herself to us and made sure we had a lunch for our train to Florence

Incredible beautiful hotel and Botanical gardens. We loved our stay at Villa Cipressi and visiting their gardens. They are actually a lot nicer than Villa Monastero and as a hotel guest you can visit as many times as you like.

I had the most incredible time at this hotel. Everyone went way out of their way to make our stay so special. Marco helped me get wine shipped from France to hold it until checkin and then the hotel boat was an extra bonus. The breakfast included is outstanding as well. The grounds are magnificent!! ALL of the staff are incredible and the owners should be very proud of their team. I can’t wait to come back! Until next time!

My partner and I stayed at this hotel for a special occasion. The staff and the view are absolutely lovely. We had no complaints whatsoever in relation to these. However, although we paid for a very expensive suite, we did not have AC (we were told it was due to local authority rules) and the bed was squeaky. Upon arrival, we did mention the AC to the staff but we were told that could not be resolved. We were not offered any alternative solutions. Therefore, we had to leave our windows open but this meant very loud church bells and crowds from about 7 am into very late evening hours. In addition, our bed squeaked. Therefore, with the open windows and the noise, we could not have a lay in or take naps and we felt always on alert and could not fully relax. We had travelled from another country for these specific views. Therefore, we did not ask to be moved and had to choose the noise over losing the view and balcony. Furthermore, the quality of food for breakfast was not impressive with food often being soggy and cold. After our stay and before leaving this review, I did communicate these concerns with the hotel’s management. However, they did not offer a satisfactory resolution. Therefore, all in all, we spent over 2500 euros for a suite and a 4-star stay (our entire trip cost in excess of 4000 euros) that was not fully relaxing. I have never seen a 4-star hotel without an AC before.

Beside the fact that this property is amazing with its iconic gap and historic rooms the staff is so excited to serve and friendly. Yunes, Renzo, Luca made this stay the best experience. Yunes made sure at check in we were welcomed, walked through the property, down to getting the right temperature in our room. Luca was a lifesaver because we were arriving at 11pm and he walked us through the train schedule and how to deal with the train strike down to getting us bus/train/route number so we would arrive ok despite the situation. Renzo was the best front desk person asking us what we like to so and recommending the best hike in Bellano once he found out we love to hike. He shared that he hiked it often and it's his favorite. Because of the staff we would come back here again and again 10/10!!!!

Beautiful property with views of the lake and gardens. Challenge was that June is wedding month so that most of our 3 day visit we were not able to use the seating or dining areas at the hotel and had to use the sister resort next door or elsewhere. Grateful to have had a room the non view side of the hotel so were not disturbed at night by the revelry.

We were only there one night. While small the rooms were very comfortable and the staff was uniformly incredibly gracious and helpful. The hallway on our floor could use a fresh coat of paint but otherwise the common areas are spectacular.

The staff was amazing! Our room was nice with an awesome view of the lake. The grounds around the hotel are beautiful and provide space to sit and enjoy the quiet and the view. BUT- Be aware that apparently this hotel is a popular wedding reception venue. One was held every single night of our stay. Which means the beautiful grounds, including the terraces, that are highlighted on the hotel’s website are closed to hotel guests from mid-afternoon until after midnight. There is no way to escape the loud music and sounds of party revealers. If these drawbacks don’t matter, I highly recommend the hotel. I wish I’d known this before booking. I likely would have chosen a different hotel.

PROS: GORGEOUS view and the botanical gardens located onsite are INCREDIBLE. Unforgettable experience. CONS: room was small and very hot upon entering. hotel is very close to the church bells that ring every hour from 7am-11pm and are loud enough to startle/wake you up. breakfast was disappointing for the most part and they play loud country music in the dining room/lobby. Kinda takes you out of the Italy experience imo. "Spa" was super expensive and was very disappointing. ~60 euros per person and comes with no amenities, only an hour of use, and it's just a couple showers with no bodywash, shampoo, etc, a steam room, and sauna. not anything special. It's also located in a different hotel about 5 min walk away and is under a ton of LOUD construction. not a great experience.

This property is a wedding venue. The primary business is NOT providing services or hospitality to overnight guests. Hotel guests are not allowed in the bar or on the grounds on days that weddings are occurring. The staff did do a good job of ending loud weddings at 11:00 PM and clearing the spaces by 11:30. They also moved our room to a quiter area of the hotel which was very appreciated. If we had known, that we would not be able to use the public spaces, or that they would be occupied by photographers, bridal party etc. 4 out of the 5 nights we were there, we would have selected another property. While the location is beautiful, and the rooms have beautiful views, the service at the hotel was disappointing.

Wonderful place. We had a view of the lake from our balcony - just beautiful. The place is immaculate with the botanic gardens to stroll though in the morning or evening. Short walk to town 200 meters where you can go for a boat cruise to all the lake villas. It is about 1k to the train station, over cobblestone part of the way so hard on the luggage. Taxis are a good idea to and from station. Lower score on comfort because all the Italian hotels seem to have really hard beds - what’d up with that??
