Very nice
Hotel location was amazing. We picked Managgio because it is less busy. We took the ferry to varenna and Bellagio. We spent about 2 1/2 in Bellagio and were ready to go back. Stay was nice beautiful views. One con our remote control batteries were dead and no one could help us. We like to enjoy our evening tv to relax

Perfect for us
You can’t beat this location if you like to be close to everything. You can walk downstairs and order a couple of cappuccinos and fresh pastry and bring them to your room. We had a balcony where we could look over the plaza and people watch. Our view was fantastic! Walking distance to everywhere. The town gets quiet after 11pm so this isn’t a place for night life.

Quiet Stay
This was a nice little town away from the hustle and bustle of Bellagio and Varenna, but also an easy ferry ride to either. Our room was in the annex building which was a little difficult to find as it was getting dark. Had a nice little balcony overlooking the town. Room was simple, but clean and had everything we needed for a one night stay. Breakfast is not included, but they do have a cafe where you can eat. Only had coffee so can't speak for how the food was.

location directly on the lake with breathtaking views
cleanliness
some of the staff weren't the friendliest or willing to assist much.
private parking garage, although not integrated into property building, was a big plus
very centarl location with access to cafes, restaurants and shopping and ferry to travel around the lake.

The property was in a very convenient location with beautiful surroundings, however the room lacked facilities such as a kettle and the air-conditioning vent pointed directly at the bed head and was quite noisy as well.
Overall, average.

10 Aug 2023
The staff/owner is not very welcoming. We had two reservations and one explicitly for a family room with two adults and child. He insisted on billing for an additional guest - until we showed the reservation made which proved we had booked and paid for three. Leading to the next point- this was a ‚book now, pay later‘ reservation but the hotel pulled the full amount without any communication or approval several weeks later. Lastly, one room had low and slanted ceilings- in bedroom and bathroom which lex. To multiple head collisions with the ceiling. The hotel also attempted to double charge the garage. One last point, the advertisement/promo photos are deceiving. Very disappointed. I am a gold member and this is a first.
