Orange House is a bed & breakfast in Varenna, on Lake Como, favoured by couples for its location just steps from the lake, rated 9.4 out of 10 by guests.
The property offers a small number of rooms, all with a private bathroom featuring a shower, air conditioning, flat-screen TV and refrigerator, designed for those seeking a simple yet comfortable stay in the heart of the lakeside village.

The two room types available at Orange House share the same essential features: private bathroom with shower, air conditioning, flat-screen TV with satellite channels and a view over mountains, town or river depending on orientation. These rooms are designed for couples or small groups of up to two people, with functional furnishings such as a wardrobe, electric kettle and access to a clothes dryer.

Both include a courtesy set and a bathrobe on request, making the stay practical even for those arriving without their own linen.
