Clean. Comfortable bed. Helpful staff. We checked out very early the staff prepared packed breakfast for us. The only thing I didn’t like we have to walk uphill to get to our room. I injured my leg prior to our stay there so it was hard for me to get to our room.

Wonderful Stay at a Clean and Convenient Hotel! We had a great experience at Hotel Montecodeno. The property was exceptionally clean and well-maintained, which made our stay very comfortable. The location couldn’t be more convenient — it’s just a short walk to both the ferry terminal and the train station, making it easy to explore the surrounding area. A special mention to Matteo, at the front desk, who was incredibly helpful and kind. We had to leave unexpectedly a day early, and he went out of his way to assist us and make the process smooth and stress-free. His professionalism and helpfulness really stood out. Highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting the area — clean, convenient, and outstanding service!

The staff, receptionist and front desk were all very satisfactory, as well as the location. The hotel itself, however, was terrible. Among the many problems, it was mainly the humid air and horrid odor that stood out to me. The bathroom itself was not only extremely outdated, but was designed without the user in mind. It was an extremely tight and cramped space, as I was even unable to sit straight on the toilet. There were bed bugs in all of our rooms. We were a group of 7 and all had bites across 4 rooms. The sheets smelled of bleach.

Great location and good place to stay

Overall the hotel is a good choice. It’s very well located and has reasonable prices for the area. Breakfast was only just passable. I had a single room which was quite well set up. The mattress, however, urgently needs replacing as it has a large hollow at hip level from overuse. The bathroom was small but functional. Be aware, though, that the shower is very small and if you are larger than average you probably won’t have a particularly enjoyable shower.

The property needs updating and the room wasn’t that functional-safe was locked and I useable, bathroom was big but with virtually no storage area for toiletries and with a yrinal and toilet?, only an armoire to hang clothes and room was noisy with main road foot and street traffic. Staff is lovely, it’s well located, and very walkable from the ferries. Breakfast had real eggs , limited fruit and no decafe coffee All in all-a basic hotel that’s located just off lake “love” trail and within easy walking of main Varenna and ferries

Stay elsewhere! No AC, no fan, no elevator. Staff unwilling to help with broken ac. We could sleep as it was 98 degrees F in our room. We carried 2 large suitcases up 3 flights of stairs to a room with no ac or fan. After 1 sleepless night we decided to check out in the morning. Staff was nothing but argumentative about everything. No refund, no apology, no attempt to help with the matter. We checked into a neighboring hotel and had a lovely rest of our stay.
