A beautiful gem of a hotel situated on Mt. Varese, quiet and with an impeccable view of the surroundings. A great destination for a little getaway. The building itself is old, but charming and well-kept. Our room extended across two floors, with the bedroom on the bottom and the bathroom (with a shower cell, toilet and bidet) upstairs. The bedroom led out on a large balcony, providing a remarkable view of the mountainside and the lake. The room was clean and tidy. We went in august and the weather was very hot, with temperatures staying high at night. The rooms have no air-conditioning, which might be an issue for some people. We had dinner at the restaurant twice and enjoyed it both times, with good food and very fresh ingredients - remarkably so, considering the rather remote location. My vegetarian partner was accomodated nicely, without prior notice from us, which is always appreciated. The staff was always attentive, calm and nice. We very much enjoyed our stay and will gladly return!

Hotel and places was good disappointing that Expedia did not include the parking what I was charged 10 euros per day by the hotel

the hotel was about a 8/10 but the service was excellent and the balcony view and space really made the stay. on the Monday night the restaurant was closed so we got ham, cheese, wine, bread etc., from a supermarket and ate al fresco on the balcony, which was wonderful The following evening we ate in the restaurant which was great and they catered for my gluten free requirement. We were treated to an amazing storm so we were able to sit on the balcony and watch - which was totally awesome. The parking was a bit tricky. 3 spaces downstairs and maybe 8 upstairs but a bit tight and you'll need to park up the way and walk down if you arrive much past 7 I would say.

Lovely tranquil place with a wonderful gourmet restaurant.

We stopped at Hotel Colonne for the World Championship bicycle race in Varese. We had an accident in the hire car and Silvio owner / chef looked after the problem allowing us to prepare a bicycle for one of the Great Britain team riders.Silvios food and hospitality is also World class along with a selection of fine wines.

Hidden gem near the top of a mountain. Spectacular view from our room overlooking the lake. Rooms are beautifully decorated and the attention to detail is flawles. Food is excellently prepared and is delicious.
