B&B Villa Liz Varese is a family-run bed and breakfast located in Varese, just a few minutes from the historic centre and the lake. The property stands out for its garden, sun terrace and common room, spaces designed to enjoy the view over the surrounding hills in a quiet, residential setting.
The three room types available — double with single beds, triple and double — all offer garden or mountain views, flat-screen TV and a courtesy set with bathrobes and slippers. Some units have a private bathroom, while others share common facilities, a solution suited to both solo travellers and small groups or families.

The location allows guests to reach the centre of Varese on foot, along with its restaurants and historic villas, while the Campo dei Fiori Regional Park and Lake Varese are easily accessible by car for those wishing to explore the surrounding nature.

Villa Liz offers three room types designed for different needs: the Double Room with Single Beds, the most compact at 12 sqm, the Triple Room of 20 sqm with private bathroom and the Double Room of 14 sqm. All share some distinctive features, such as views of the garden or surrounding mountains, flat-screen TV, electric kettle and carpeted flooring, elements that make every stay comfortable regardless of the chosen room type.
Each room is equipped with bathrobes, slippers and a bathroom set with bidet and hairdryer, while only the Triple has an en-suite private bathroom; the other two share common facilities.
