I normally do not write reviews; but, wanted to for this hotel. It is a small quaint hotel. It actually has a small pool and hot tub with incredible views. It is actually located in Vezio right outside of Varenna. At first, I was concerned about the location from Varenna. However, Rita the proprietor made sure we had transportation from the train station as well as to and from all of our points of interest. We seriously wanted for nothing. Rita and the staff made sure all our needs were taken care of. She even cooked us lasagna dinner herself when the local restaurant was closed. I have stayed in many hotels but never received this level of hospitality. We actually would say and continue to say where is “Rita” because this would not happen. She took care of every need and would not let us be without a ride, food, umbrella, etc. If you are planning to visit this area you will not regret staying at the Hotel Diffuso il Portichetto. Rita and her staff will treat you like family! I can’t wait to go back!!

Great Italian town in beautiful Lake Como

Apartment was clean, comfortable and fully equipped. The view of Lake Como from the balcony is exquisite. Breakfast was excellent and Rita was a great host. The croissants were the best we've ever had! The walk up and down the path to the town issues but walkable.

In the quiet town of Vezio, it’s a great place. Rita and Kirsty make you feel like you are staying at a B and B. It’s a 10 minute walk downhill to Varenna. The 20 minute hike up can be challenging, but the hotel will get a cab for you if you don’t want to hike up. Highly recommend

Beautiful little B & B hidden in the back streets

Casa Cristina is exactly how I imagined Italy to be. Cobbled footpath leading up to the restaurant with the B & B tucked in beside it. The room was clean and comfortable and our host Rita was accommodating and easy going. There was a fairly huge language barrier between us, but we worked through it and had fun doing so!

Lovely Hotel and stay

This little hotel was so cute, and had everything you need plus more. Rita couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating. There was a home made bottle of wine waiting for us! There is a washer in the room, plus everything you need and more. It is high up on the hill from the lake/town right next to an olive grove and old castle. The breakfast was home made, and had a lot of variety. There is a restaurant on site. I highly recommend it.

Il Portichetto is in a small village at Peledo, overlooking Varenna. The hotel is quiet and clean. Our hostess Rita is super friendly, she speak some English, we were able to communicate w/o much trouble. There is a small footpath that goes between the village and Varenna waterfront, it’s pretty steep, so if you have big luggage, it’s better to call taxi to take you there, it’s OK to walk from the train station to the village, but I wouldn’t do it if I have luggage or if the weather is bad. The hotel had a website and you can talk to Rita using Whatapp. The hotel has a small kitchen and Rita make excellent meal, must try the lake trout. Over we had a great time and will come back again.

Excellent quiet place with outstanding service. Very clean and highly recommend. The complimentary breakfast was also very good. Only things to be aware is that the center of Varenna is a significant distance down the mountain. You can walk there but it is a pretty good distance. The hotel will arrange local taxi to take you down and back up. The cost will be between 10 and 15 euros each way but very much worth it. Other thing is that the room temperature is centrally controlled. Either heat or air conditioning is on. During our stay the heat was on as it gets cool at night. Our room was a bit stuffy but we kept the window open during the day which helped. The area is very beautiful.

My family of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Il Portichetto. Our apartment was spacious and clean, with a balcony that had a view of beautiful Lake Como. The air conditioning worked reasonably well and was much appreciated during the summer heat. We also appreciated having a free place to park our car and being able to walk to/from Varenna (though it is steep walk that requires good shoes and stable footing). We enjoyed being removed from the crowds of Varenna and having the option of cooling off in the small hotel pool in the late afternoon. It was very quiet and peaceful. The owner Rita does not speak much English, but she is very kind and clearly cares about her guests. We also enjoyed several meals at the restaurant on the property and would recommend it to guests staying at the hotel. Overall, a very enjoyable stay!

Wonderful Italian escape

This place is a hidden gem in a typical Italian setting 5 minutes walk from Vezio Castle in the hills above Varenna ferry port. Rita the host and Kirsty are the most helpful and friendliest people you could ever meet and absolutely nothing is too much trouble for them to do for you. The walk down to the ferry is quite steep on a cobbled trail but only takes 10 to 15 minutes and walking back up is a little more challenging especially after some wine and pasta down at the lovely restaurants in Varenna! It is not suitable to be taking cases up but this isn't necessary as Rita will pick you up on arrival and drive you up to the property. You just have to WhatsApp them in advance. We stayed 4 nights and it felt like we had been there much longer down to the hospitality and genuine kindness of Rita and Kirsty who welcome you into their casa as they would a family member. Lake Como itself is delightful with plenty of pretty lakeside villages all easily accessible via the public ferry transport system for around 5 euros each per trip. A truly wonderful stay at il portichetto with all of it's charm made even more special by Rita and Kirsty. You have to try the pasta with pear and cheese which is homemade by Rita and is as authentic an Italian dish as you could get. Delicious! We shall certainly be staying here again in the future. A truly wonderful experience. Grazie Mille Rita, ci vediamo!

The hotel was half way up the mountain so it was lovely to have them pick us up from the train station. The town of Varenna was easily reached with a 10 minute walk down the mountain however the uphill trip could be a bit gruelling, there is a free bus that operates from the station after 7pm. The hotel room was well appointed and even had a washing machine which was well used by us. It was a beautiful peaceful setting with pool and spa and a lovely restaurant a few steps away. The breakfast was wonderful and I would go back in a heartbeat!

Il Portichetto Hotel, July 2025

Great stay, the hotel and Rita, the host and all the staff are amazing! Fantastic views, a bit different from your regular hotels but that is a plus! Has a hot tub and pool as well as included breakfast (which is really good and it’s great to not have to worry about breakfast). It’s a bit outside of Varenna, it’s up in the hills, so you will need a Taxi every time to get back up to the hotel, there was a free night bus that took us to the hotel, but I believe it’s only running until October 2025. Going down to Varenna, you do need a Taxi or if you have a bike or rented car, be careful with the curves and the other Italian drivers lol. You can also do a walk down that takes about 20-25 minutes, but it is very rocky path down. Overall, great stay and room and would recommend.

OUR THOUGHTS!

Kind, helpful owner. Free parking can be arranged a little farther up the hill. Walk down to Varenna (ferries, etc) is steep and very slippery where wet. Impossible for us to climb back up. Each return trip by taxi cost $12 to $30 Euro. $$$ If your budget allows, stay down in town.
