Villa Monastero really leaves a lasting impression. This grand, old building is a must-visit for traveling history lovers.

This historic landmark is on the to-do lists of many visitors to Varenna. But Villa Monastero isn't the area's only highlight. Villa del Balbianello, Villa Carlotta, and Villa Melzi are some other worthwhile attractions close by.

Had a good experience staying at this hotel. The staff were great, breakfast was good and the room was comfortable. Only thing I would change is the pillows offered, they were quite uncomfortable. Other than that, it was pretty good.
