Hotel and places was good disappointing that Expedia did not include the parking what I was charged 10 euros per day by the hotel

the hotel was about a 8/10 but the service was excellent and the balcony view and space really made the stay. on the Monday night the restaurant was closed so we got ham, cheese, wine, bread etc., from a supermarket and ate al fresco on the balcony, which was wonderful The following evening we ate in the restaurant which was great and they catered for my gluten free requirement. We were treated to an amazing storm so we were able to sit on the balcony and watch - which was totally awesome. The parking was a bit tricky. 3 spaces downstairs and maybe 8 upstairs but a bit tight and you'll need to park up the way and walk down if you arrive much past 7 I would say.

Lovely tranquil place with a wonderful gourmet restaurant.

We stopped at Hotel Colonne for the World Championship bicycle race in Varese. We had an accident in the hire car and Silvio owner / chef looked after the problem allowing us to prepare a bicycle for one of the Great Britain team riders. Silvio's food and hospitality is also World class along with a selection of fine wines.

Nice little hotel nice view , quiet please, nice restaurant definitely come back

Lovely hotel near Sacro Monte di Varese, lovely view and room. Staff are friendly, the only downside was the restaurant and bar were always closed.

Beautiful room opening to a private balcony overlooking the town and a lemon tree. One suggestion would be to arrive in the daylight. Navigation to this hotel is very tricky!

Super hotel, very good value for money, super staff, but did not meet the owner, who I think could have introduced himself to my wife and I. Area is stunning, with lots of walks etc. Only problem is the Wifi, or lack of it. There is supposed to be a connection!! Breakfast was adequate but limited, but at least there was English breakfast tea. We stayed in room 4, which was lovely, very comfy bed and good sitting areas. Bathroom good. Amazing views from balcony

Magnificent view of Varese, situated on top of the near by mountain in the Sacro Monte area. You would need a car to go up there of could take the bus. Has parking and it is a family run hotel, very nice people. Would stay again ...

Our stay at Hotel Colonne exceeded our expectations, the friendliness and helpfulness of the owner and staff were delightful. The view was outstanding and our walk around the close by small village was lovely. Last but not least the quality of the food, sublime ..... My husband and I have been traveling around Italy for a month now and this small hotel has been the highlight so far ..... this will definitely be part of out next trip, however we will stay longer next time.

Wow, what an amazing place. At the end of a 5 day bike ride, the hill up to the Motel being a bit of a challenge, to say the least, but, boy was it worth the ride! Silvio, you and you staff, especially your mother, are amazing. Our room was absolutely delightful, our afternoon on the terrace celebrating our ride, was amazing and to top off our stay, the breakfasts, I'm sure my husband eat you out of the "homemade" cheese! I could go on and on, but, thankyou. You are a star in Italy's eyes. Love from Jen and Mark Australia

Delightful spot, fabulous food, incredible views, very attentive service, twenty minutes from everywhere, by car, taxi, or bus.

Potrebbe valere molto di più, ma il giochino del parcheggio a pagamento, 15€ al giorno, non mi è piaciuto. Sulla scheda di Hotels, compare la dicitura PARCHEGGIO DISPONIBILE, dopo la prenotazione, ti arriva una mail che di avvisa che lo devi pagare. Sarà che vorranno recuperare la provvigione di Expidia? Sanno benissimo che non vi sono molti parcheggi in quella zona! Altro; non mi puoi proporre una cucina sofisticata e raffinata in montagna, da 75€ in su, la cucina deve essere semplice e che richiami il territorio. Non voglio la cucina da “Fighetti” in un contesto come quello, fallo in centro a Varese! È forse competizione con il vicino BORDUCAN? Del quale non approvo ugualmente la scelta, anche se la motivazione mi sembra più plausibile, cenette romantiche per far colpo sul partner. Comunque, l’ingordigia, vi ha fatto perdere un cliente, non per i15€, sia chiaro, ma per principio. La furbizia non sempre paga.

Ein ganz aussergewöhnliches, charaktervolles Hotel in sensationeller Lage über Varese. Der Ort selbst ist hoch oben am Berg und für sich schon eine Reise wert. Sehr freundliche Wirte.

Fantastisk vertskap og rom. Anbefales på det varmeste.

Det var ekstrem vær når vi bodde der i 2 dager. Vi skulle gå i fjellene. Det var bare å gi opp det. Tett tåke styrt regn og kraftig lyn og torden. Vi fikk gått pilgrims ruten den var helt fantastisk sammen med kirken og alle små gatene. Vi spiste også en 8 retters på restaurant Colonne har aldri smakt bedre mat. Det var helt fantastisk.

Un hôtel vieillissant, défraîchi, sans climatisation (très inconfortable en période de canicule). Ne correspond pas à un standard de 4*. Mais un restaurant gastronomique (avec tarifs associés)

A beautiful gem of a hotel situated on Mt. Varese, quiet and with an impeccable view of the surroundings. A great destination for a little getaway. The building itself is old, but charming and well-kept. Our room extended across two floors, with the bedroom on the bottom and the bathroom (with a shower cell, toilet and bidet) upstairs. The bedroom led out on a large balcony, providing a remarkable view of the mountainside and the lake. The room was clean and tidy. We went in august and the weather was very hot, with temperatures staying high at night. The rooms have no air-conditioning, which might be an issue for some people. We had dinner at the restaurant twice and enjoyed it both times, with good food and very fresh ingredients - remarkably so, considering the rather remote location. My vegetarian partner was accomodated nicely, without prior notice from us, which is always appreciated. The staff was always attentive, calm and nice. We very much enjoyed our stay and will gladly return!

Unique location on the mountain top. Many historic sites nearby. Great place above the World. Exquisite cuisine. You need to be there. Any better place on this Earth?

Fantastisk beliggenhed og udsigt meeeenn,,,, Vi ankommer mandag, hvor der er lukket (restauranten). Får vores værelse og bliver gjort opmærksom på, hvilken restaurant der har åbent i nærheden, Det er fint og vi får reserveret bord og har her en dejlig aften. Men vi har især to forbehold overfor det "4-stjernede" hotel Colonne: Der er ingen aircondition - og der var varmt. Herudover: morgenmaden er decideret mangelfuld. Vi måtte bede om æg (det blev ikke tilbudt) for at blive mætte. Ingen ost og kun 3 skiver salami til deling. Udsigten er uforlignelig - men det bliver man ikke 4-stjernet af!
