Price vs Performance was very good. I would stay again in this hotel while visiting Varese. Hotel is situated above the city of Varese in a beautiful Park. High ceilings, marble columns, nice hotel bar with woodwork, etc. "Grand Hotel" but they kept renovation on a minimum (I assume it must be very expensive to keep it uptodate - therefore... More

We made this hotel our one night stop on our way home due to the price and expected price performance. We were not disappointed. This old mansion is somewhat unique in that it looks more like an apartment building than a hotel. However after entering one discovers a very nice ground floor with unusual high ceilings. There was a congress... More

Located on top of a hill, this old palace is magnificent. The lobby is elegant, the rooms are large, the bathroom is huge. Our room, on the third floor, overlooked the lake-a view we enjoyed morning, noon, and night. The food was very good, for hotel food. There was a large selection to choose from at breakfast. Others have said... More

Stayed at the Grand Palace whilst on business in Italy and had a very pleasant experience. The hotel is approached by a very long drive up a big hill / drive which must be well over a mile and your then met by a beautiful old building with stunning views across Varese / Northern Milan region. I arrived quite late... More

This is an old fashion hotel with not a lot to offer. It is not in a very good location so you will need a car or do lots of walking. The room was OK decorated in an old fashion style with comfortable beds and the marble bathroom that was large. The buffet breakfast was OK. The staff all through... More
