Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Hotel Varese is appreciated for its fantastic location, very close to the main Termini train station, which allows easy access to the city. Guests found the rooms to be clean and of a good size, with modern furnishing. Breakfast receives mixed feedback; while generally good, requiring a reservation time, some found the serving slow. the hotel's location near the station and restaurants is a definite plus for many.

The hotel offered a packed breakfast since I checked out before the regular breakfast service. The bathroom included excellent fixtures. The hotel's location is very convenient for accessing the station.

The lift made concerning noises.
