We stayed for three nights. Our room was in the annex, not in the main building. The WiFi was erratic. There is ample secure parking. And it is easily accessible, through a wide gate, which is locked over night and has CCTV. The surface spaces are a very good size. There is also underground parking. Our room was big, a mini-suite. It had a large safe and a fridge. Bathrobes and slippers also. Comfortable beds. The bathroom was big, with a great shower. Everywhere was absolutely spotlessly clean. Breakfast was very good. The lady in the breakfast room makes excellent double espressos. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They gave me good advice on getting to Campione d'Italia, when my satnav was of little help. It’s a curiosity - an Italian enclave, on the shore of Lake Lugano, completely surrounded by Switzerland. My main problem was getting there and back without incurring the €40 Swiss motorway toll. We also got good recommendation from the hotel for restaurants. They list a number on the city map which they provide. We went to Bologna, which was great (closed Tuesdays, otherwise we'd have gone again) and La Piedigrotta for pizza. Go at opening time to either, if you don’t have a reservation. Otherwise forget it. Varese is a lovely relaxing town with colonnaded streets, lots of high-end shops and plenty of eateries. We will definitely stay again at Hotel di Varese.
