    It was a great experience staying at this location, its close to everything. The only drawback is it's not quite till about 10pm since there are so many restaurants and Wine bars downstairs.

    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!

    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.

    We loved our stay in Varrena. The apartment was very relaxing and peaceful. We slept soundly in the upstairs loft. Location excellent for exploring the beautiful town. Great communication via text for recommendations and assistance. They provided suggestions for parking in a garage not too far away. We cannot wait to return.

    This place is perfect! Right in the heart of Varenna and walking distance to everything. If you are in Italy, you already know that there are lots of stairs. This apartment is on the 3rd floor so pack light. It is a walk from the train station so be ready to haul your gear but worth every step! Enjoy!

    We spent two days in Varenna and the location was just perfect! The apartment was quite clean and comfortable for our family of four. Both the waterfront and S. Giorgio Piazza were readily accessible. Even in the offseason, there were plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby. Ettore was a gracious host and easy to communicate with. Ettore’s father was a great help to us and gave us rides to/from the train station! We highly recommend!!

    Ettore’s dad picked us up in the next town because we couldn’t get the train doors to open! So nice of him. Personal escort to the apartment and how to use everything. Lovely town. Ettore was awesome to communicate with us all along through What’s App! Everything was super clean! There is a 3 flights of stairs to get to the apartment. Also, a winding staircase to get to the bedroom upstairs. If you have mobility issues it might be hard to navigate, especially bathroom trips at night. We would definitely stay here again! Ettore took us back to the train station, so kind!! We loved the place!!

    Loved everything about this loft apartment in Varenna. Our communication with Ettore was excellent and he was extremely helpful with everything before and during our stay. The apartment is perfectly located in Varenna and has everything one requires. The upstairs bed and bedroom layout was fantastic with the most comfortable pillows we have experienced in Europe. The sofa bed was also very comfortable. It was a joy to stay in such a cosy and comfortable apartment. We will definitely return so as to experience this town in the Summer months when everything is open. The upside to visiting in Winter was the peace and serenity without crowds.
