The staff at Royal Victoria saved our vacation after we stupidly forgot our passports in the safe in our room. They went out of their way to have them express mailed to our next destination and we cannot thank them enough. The location is perfect for exploring the central part of the lake, and is a peaceful spot. We had... more

Varenna was a fantastic town and the Royal Victoria was such a great location. The view from the room was beautiful. The bathroom and shower are small but clean and everything worked well. The rooms are dated but again were clean. There may be nicer hotels in Varenna but not sure why the other reviews were so harsh. The staff... more

The right hotel in the right town on Lake Como, if you only come once. Although I had already booked this hotel, I only read the reviews much later which began to convince me I had made a grave mistake as more than half of the reviews were negative or very negative. Cockroaches, bells, rude staff but where were they... more

I can't say enough about about Varenna or this hotel! It is worth every euro! The hotel has an old world charm, with all the needed modern touches (wi-fi and air conditioning). Because we booked at the last minute, we had to change rooms during our stay, but both rooms had picture-perfect lakeside views. The rooms were comfortable, with the... more

We stayed for a couple of nights while over for a friends wedding, It wasnt over the top extravagant but we got a lakeview for for 50 euros a night less than it should have been, Breakfast was sufficient if not over the top, Spent very little time in the room as the area is amazing, If this wouldnt stretch... more

Whatever you do for an holiday this year don't waste hard earned money on this so called four star hotel. We paid 1120 euros for a seven night stay for a double room over looking the square. The room itself was dismal and the toilet and shower room worse. The toilet seat was broken and the towel rail was hanging... more

Having pored over so many hotel reviews for Varenna and got thoroughly confused, we decided to go with this one, as it had the most positive reviews. We had wanted to stay at Villa Cipressi, but those reviews were not great at all. In the end we managed to get a better than published deal out of Royal Victoria for... more

I stayed at the Hotel Royal Victoria for a couple of days and I really enjoyed the beautiful lake view from our room (which was offered to us for no extra money), the kindness of the staff and the restaurant with charming view and delicious meals. I will certainly come again, maybe in summer to enjoy the garden and the... more

My partner and I stayed in Varenna for a friends wedding. There is no doubt that Varenna is absolutely amazing, however I agree with other travellers that this was not up to the 4 star standard. We staying in much better hotels for less during our stay, and unfortunately we had been looking forward to treating ourselves to the four-star... more

This hotel claims to be a four star - what a joke. We stayed in Bergamo the night we arrived in Italy in a three star ( Hotel Piemontese) that was less than half the price and had a better room. I would describe our room in the front of the the Royal Hotel Victoria as shabby and small. The... more
