Varese Suites is located right in the historic centre of Varese, just steps from the Basilica of San Vittore and its famous Bernascone Bell Tower, architectural symbols of the city. The area is pedestrian and lively, dotted with bars and restaurants such as Bella Napoli and Cyclery, both just metres from the entrance, and historic venues such as Buongiorno Varese.
The property is also convenient for those arriving without a car: Varese Nord station is about 450 metres away, while Varese station is 550 metres away, with regional connections to Milan and the wider Lombardy area. Milan Malpensa Airport is about 19 km away, a useful reference point for those travelling by air. Nearby are also the Baptistery of San Giovanni Battista, 100 metres away, and Villa Mirabello, a historic museum venue, 450 metres away.
For nature lovers, the Campo dei Fiori Regional Park is about 8 km away and is an ideal destination for excursions through woods and trails, with viewpoints over the Varese Prealps. In summer it’s suited to walking and mountain biking, while in autumn it offers the colours of foliage. Lake Varese, on the edge of the city, is another recommended stop for those wanting to combine relaxation and lakeside scenery with an urban stay. The gardens of Villa Mylius and Villa Biumi Redaelli Park, both within walking distance, also offer green spaces handy for a break away from the traffic of the centre.
