Hotel Ungheria, Varese

This hotel is located in Varese, one kilometre from the centre of the city. Its location makes it an excellent base to explore the Italian Lake District and the luxurious villas that are dotted along the lush shorelines. The neo-classical Villa Olmo, which is 18 kilometres from the hotel on Lake Como, was built by the Marquis Innocenzo Odescalchi. It is notable for the elegance and grace of its architecture and for the superb Italian garden, complete with pagan statuary, which sweeps down to the edge of the lake. Villa Carlotta, also on Lake Como, in the lakeside town of Tremezzo, provides a fascinating insight into the luxury that Italian aristocrats took for granted in the 19th century. The city of Lugano, just 24 kilometres away on the other side of the Swiss border, has a lovely old town.

Varese's Hotel Ungheria is built in Swiss style with a green tiled roof and wooden shutters; it is laid out over three floors and has a lounge bar. This family run property has wireless internet access in the lobby and in the meeting rooms. Guests enjoy special rates at both a nearby restaurant and a health and beauty centre.
