Plan your stay at B&B della Contrada Varenna

A welcoming B&B in the heart of Varenna, on Lake Como, with city views and a balcony, designed for quiet, adults-only stays.

Room types

The B&B della Contrada Varenna offers two room types, both around 12 square metres, with private bathroom, balcony and views of the city or a local point of interest. Each room is designed for a maximum of two guests and comes with courtesy sets, a hairdryer, bidet and free WiFi connection, features that make the stay practical even for short periods.

The difference between the two rooms mainly concerns the bed configuration: one offers an extra-large double bed, the other two separate single beds, ideal for those who prefer to sleep in separate beds while sharing the same space. In both cases the balcony offers a view over the surrounding landscape, among the village rooftops and glimpses of the lake, in a setting designed exclusively for an adult clientele.

Location & what to see

The B&B della Contrada Varenna is located in the most central area of Varenna, one of the most characteristic villages on Lake Como, on a quiet lane just steps from the lakefront. The neighbourhood retains the atmosphere of Lake Como villages, with colourful houses, narrow staircases and small venues overlooking the water, and the location score of 9.5 given by guests confirms how convenient its position is for exploring the village on foot.

Connections are made easy by the proximity to two train stations: Varenna-Esino-Perledo at about 600 metres and Fiumelatte at 1.5 km, useful for reaching Como, Lecco or Milan without a car. For those arriving by air, the nearest airports are Lugano-Agno (28 km) and Bergamo-Orio al Serio (48 km). Within a few minutes’ walk there are several restaurants, including Al Prato and Il Molo, both about 30-40 metres from the property.

Among the not-to-be-missed attractions, Villa Monastero is just 150 metres away, with its botanical gardens overlooking the lake, while Vezio Castle, perched on the hill, is about 450 metres away and offers a panoramic viewpoint over the entire lake basin. A little further away are the Gardens of Villa Melzi and Villa Carlotta, both reachable by boat or car in a few minutes, an ideal destination in spring for the blooms. In summer the lake is well suited to boat trips and walks along the shore, while in autumn and winter the village offers a more intimate atmosphere, perfect for those seeking a stay away from the crowds.
