UNAHOTELS Varese

Perched on the foothills of the Italian Alps in Varese, minutes from the town center and known as the “garden city.” Steps from Villa Menafoglio Litta Panza and a short drive to Lake Varese, with Lake Lugano roughly 12.6 km away. A four-star, family-friendly and pet-friendly business resort with easy access to Milan Malpensa (about 42 km).

A leading-edge architectural hotel with contemporary, functional design. Choose from 220 rooms — Superior, Executive, Junior Suite and Suite — many with private furnished balconies overlooking verdant hills and the nearby horse-racing track. Rooms include LCD TVs and private bathrooms (bathtub or shower, bidet, hair dryer); higher categories add extra space and modern comforts like mini-bar, safe and air conditioning.

Dip in a seasonal outdoor pool or unwind by the summer pool; some sources also list an indoor pool and a solarium.
