“A charming lakeside hotel with 16 comfortable air-conditioned bedrooms - some with lake views and private balconies. The hotel has a peaceful terrace overlooking the lake with a lovely shaded dining area. A family run property and the number one spot to explore the local area.”

Hotel review

The Arosio family have been welcoming guests to their friendly lakeside hotel since 1959. Endearingly old-fashioned, it seems to have changed little since. Downstairs Persian rugs warm mosaic or tiled floors, and pictures jostle for space on the walls. Reception rooms and bedrooms are furnished with substantial antiques. Meals are accompanied by the sound of lapping water as the terrace and airy restaurant jut out into the lake.

GUIDE TO ITALIAN LAKES

Of the two contenders in Varenna, the 18th-century Hotel du Lac is the one to go for. Rooms are homely rather than elegant, but the lakeside position makes drawing back the curtains an unforgettable experience.
