The reviews
Dear Rita and other staff, we have enjoyed our stay here so very much this 5 days en we hope to return one day. The apaziment had airconditioning and was so clean we also had a garden! The breakfast and the dinner in the evening were also fantastically!!! make sure you have a reservation because the staff and food are amazing. Rita also aRRanged us the taxi service to the boat. really amazing!! What a warm and lovely team enormously friendly and great. Greetings from Rosalie and Parents van der Poel from Holland.
Posizione fantastica con panorama mozzafiato, punto di partenza ottimale per visitare il Lago di Como godendo però della tranquillità di un borgo immerso nella natura. Rita ed il suo staff ti fanno sentire a casa e non ti fanno mancare proprio nulla. Insomma un vero angolo di paradiso.
Excellent stay! The rooms were very large, clean, and well furnished. It was great to have a kitchen and dining area. The view of Lake Como was amazing. Rita and the rest of the staff were extremely helpful. I had a late arrival, and am thankful to Rita not only for booking a taxi from the train station but for arranging for a pizza after the restaurant closed. I was attending a conference in Varenna that started early in the morning ,which meant I missed the breakfast buffet, but the staff offered to have a tray delivered to my room. The path down to Varenna takes 10-15 minutes to walk and is very steep, but it was good exercise at the end of the day.
My partner and I had a wonderful stay at Hotel Il Portichetto! The shuttle picked us up from the train station with no issues, the apartment was clean and well maintained, and both Rita and Kirstie were great at responding to any questions we had. The restaurant next to the hotel was also fabulous. Overall, a lovely stay and I highly recommend it!
We stayed at the lovely Casa Rita apartment. It had everything we needed and so many nice touches. We loved gathering for breakfast as well as having the restaurant available in the evenings. Rita and the team create such a nice atmosphere and make you feel like family. We would love to return in the future!
Rita's hospitality was marvelous.The rooms are beautiful and silent.The breakfast was excellent. Rita had some helpful tips, for example about the wayfarers way. You ned to have a Carsten or good legs, as the hotel is about 150 meter above the Lake, but it was worth every step. Last but Not least, there's Beppo the friendly dog who seems to believe he's a cat (allways lays in your way and never makes way for nobody).
Находится в потрясающе красивом месте. Прекрасный отель, отвечающий всем необходимым требованиям для полноценного отдыха и работы. Очень хороший дизайн, где удобство и комфорт гостей являются основными приоритетами. Отлично обученный персонал. Девушка на ресепшене была максимально отзывчива и добра.

Le sistemazioni erano incantevoli e le camere erano fornite di tutto il necessario (ombrellone, lavatrice, acqua). Sono rimasto molto colpito dall'ospitalità. Inoltre, l'autobus notturno era un modo conveniente per salire sulla collina.Jonathan B25. Agosto, 2024.Merci Rita ! Nous venons de passer 1 semaine dans l’appartement Miralago 2. Tout y est! Cuisine équipée avec vaisselle, huile d’olive, vinaigre de vin sel et poivre à disposition + une bouteille de vin en guise de bienvenue. Dans la salle de bain, une machine à laver avec de la lessive est disponible sans supplément. La vue est magnifique et le jardin avec ses bains de soleil est très pratique pour en profiter. Que dire de l’accueil magnifique de Rita. Tout est organisé à l’avance par whats app, le petit déjeuner est top et pris dans un cadre atypique et dépaysant. La piscine et le jacuzzi avec vue sur un champ d’oliviers est magique. Un grand merci aussi aux équipes de Rita qui entretiennent, nettoient et préparent le petit déjeuners, tout est toujours très propre. N’hésitez pas à leur demander des conseils sur les visites à faire dans le coin 😉. Encore merci Rita ! Tanti baci 😘Brenda S2. Maggio, 2024.Albergo tranquillo La nostra camera era spaziosa e confortevole. Abbiamo apprezzato molto il vino che Rita ha lasciato nella nostra camera come benvenuto. La colazione era deliziosa e fresca. La passeggiata fino alla città è durata circa 30 minuti con una camminata attenta. Rita si è offerta di chiamarci un taxi se lo volevamo, ma abbiamo camminato avanti e indietro per la città nei due giorni in cui siamo stati al Portichetto.elaineandgary17. Ottobre, 2023.B&B autentico e rustico Questo delizioso be&be ha una posizione invidiabile a Varenna, il nostro piccolo balcone si affacciava sulla città e di notte sembrava molto "atmosfera" Rita, la proprietaria, è molto disponibile e ospitale. Ha organizzato un taxi per venirci a prendere alla vicina stazione ferroviaria di Varenna - Esino. Se desideri visitare il Lago di Como, Bellagio ecc., la posizione è ideale. Rita può fornire la cena (costo extra) e su richiesta anche un piatto di tagliatelle da me espressamente richiesto, infatti due diverse versioni di tagliatelle su un piatto. Vino rosso locale a un costo ragionevole, sempre disponibile o anche grandi birre Pieroni se più di tuo gusto La camera era sempre pulita, una cassaforte fornita e l'uso di una lavatrice. La proprietà ha un'atmosfera "rustica" e sembrava molto autentica in un ambiente meraviglioso.Cynthia B3. Settembre, 2023.Le meilleur hôtel du lac de côme Hotel super propre, ainsi que la piscine et le jacuzzi, la cuisine de rita est super bonne on manger la tout les soirs, rita est une superbe hôte super attentionnée ainsi que les employés et d'une gentillesse. On se sent comme chez soie, c'est chaleureux, franchement j'ai rien à dire à part merci. Cette hôtel mérite une nouvelle étoile 🌟🌟🌟🌟4 étoile elle le mérite. Merci Rita. Baci dal belgioGJPat14. Maggio, 2023.Hotel meraviglioso con splendide viste sul Lago di Como Il nostro appartamento era ben fornito, molto pulito e servito giornalmente. C'è un'ottima colazione a buffet ogni mattina e il ristorante offre pasti fatti in casa ogni sera. Rita, la padrona di casa, è molto disponibile, cordiale e ti tratta come una famiglia. Ha un interesse personale nell'assicurarsi che i suoi ospiti si divertano. Mi ha anche insegnato a cucinare il risotto italiano e poi l'abbiamo mangiato per cena. Quando si viaggia ci piace immergerci nella società, incontrare la gente del posto ed è quello che il Portichetto ci ha permesso di fare. è stata una vacanza fantastica che non dimenticheremo e Rita e Portichetto lo hanno reso possibile. Altamente raccomandato.Harriettispagetti23. Aprile, 2023.Tutto quello che potevi chiedere, niente era troppo?? Splendidi panorami, ottima posizione, cibo delizioso, personale molto gentile e disponibile. Ma ciò che contraddistingue questo appartamento è l'ospitalità offerta da Rita e Kirsty, ti senti più un locale / amico che un turista di passaggio. Ci mancheranno Il Portichetto e Peepo???nayh19. Gennaio, 2023.Un caloroso benvenuto ricevuto! La prenotazione per questo soggiorno di due notti è stata effettuata da una terza parte, quindi non sono in grado di commentare il valore, ma la qualità del soggiorno è stata eccellente, principalmente grazie al suo personale. Rita (proprietaria) ha risposto a un'e-mail inviata prima dell'arrivo e ha organizzato un taxi per incontrarci dalla stazione dei treni perché stavamo arrivando abbastanza tardi e fuori stagione. Poi siamo stati accolti da Kirsty, parte del team dell'hotel che ci ha prenotato. Avevamo anche organizzato con Rita un pasto serale all'arrivo. Era un giorno di festa locale e la famiglia e gli amici si stavano tutti godendo una cena insieme, ci hanno fatto sentire i benvenuti da tutti. I ravioli fatti in casa, seguiti dal brasato di manzo, sono stati annaffiati con vino rosso locale. Ci è stata assegnata una stanza in una delle quattro intorno alla piscina, una stanza pulita e di buone dimensioni, ben pensata con tutti i piccoli extra di cui potresti aver bisogno. (Ferro da stiro, ombrelloni/frigorifero con acqua in bottiglia, bottiglia di vino/tè + caffè di benvenuto e nel bagno di discrete dimensioni anche una lavatrice, detersivo fornito) C'è un patio collettivo a bordo piscina fuori dalla stanza per le quattro camere a bordo piscina, che è ben posizionato con alberi di ulivo e cattura il sole pomeridiano. Essendo fuori stagione e non molti posti aperti, siamo molto grati a Rita per averci fornito un'abbondante colazione senza costi aggiuntivi entrambe le mattine. Accedendo al lungolago e alla zona principale della città, c'è un sentiero che scende di 800 m+ nel centro, scarpe da ginnastica/stivali consigliati, ci sono voluti 15 minuti in discesa + 25 per risalire. La vista è superba sul lago. Abbiamo preso un traghetto locale (9 € a persona) per Menaggio (traversata di 15 minuti) che offre una vista mozzafiato sul lago. Ancora una volta, a causa della chiusura della maggior parte dei posti, la seconda sera abbiamo optato per la cucina casalinga di Rita, ancora una volta deliziosa. Un enorme grazie a Rita e al suo team / famiglia per averci fatto sentire i benvenuti, abbiamo apprezzato moltissimo il nostro soggiorno con voi.Glenn Å28. Settembre, 2022.Lugnt och mysigt Bodde 3 nätter i en av lägenheterna som innehöll 2 sovrum kök och allrum och badrum. Det var lite svårt att finna hotellet med hjälp av bilens GPS. Hotellet är högtbeläget och man når dit genom en smal snirklande serpentinväg. Det går inte att köra ända fram till hotellet utan man får gå cirka 150 m på en smal gata utan trafik. Parkering finns i närheten och är gratis. Mottagandet och incheckningen var varmt och hjärtligt. Rita visade oss allt vi behövde veta om boendet. Lägenheten var fräsch och välstädad. Allt nödvändigt fanns, till och med tvättmaskin. Till lägenheten fanns en balkong med en helt otrolig utsikt över Comosjön. Att få äta frukost med denna utsikt var helt fantastiskt. Invid receptionen ligger en restaurang med samma namn och som drivs av hotelägarens dotter. Där åt vi fantastiska middagar. Hemlagad genuinsk mat. I omgivningarna finns många vandringsleder men också mång små städer att besöka. Sammanfattningsvis vill jag varmt rekommendera hotellet med närliggande restaurang. Tack för en lugn och avsressande vistelse. Hoppas vi kommer ses igen.Stefano B21. Settembre, 2022.Appartamento con tutto! Consigliamo questo appartamento per: - la vista dal giardino terrazza - la tranquillità - tutti gli elettrodomestici (lavastoviglie, lavatrice, frigo, freezer, forno a microonde, condizionatore ...) - gentilezza e simpatia della proprietaria - disponibilità nel servizio - possibilità di utilizzo di piscina e Jacuzzi

We very much enjoyed our stay and the hotel is very close to the castle and walking trails to Ballano and Fumielatte. Pool was a welcome relief after a hot day walking. Breakfast okay. Walk up from town a brisk 15 minutes. ☺Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfortChristopher7 Settembre 202410VerificataRita and all the staff made our stay special. The accommodation is quite high up in the hills and it is a tricky walk down to Varenna, about 15-20 minutes. Rita and Kirsty organised taxis for us but we did have to reserve them in advance. The hotel is great and we had everything we needed. ☺Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilitiesCatherine27 Agosto 202410VerificataGreat stay! The room was comfy, shower and bathroom were clean and updated, the room stayed cool with the AC. Rita really cared about her guests and was always willing to help. It is far from the city center, so plan to use a taxi since it can be a steep climb. ☺Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfortChristopher15 Agosto 202410VerificataMy wife and I just finished our stay at Hotel Il Portichetto - a hidden gem in Lake Como, located just above Varenna in Vezio. We were very happy with our stay here! Rita is an amazing host, as well as her sweet and friendly dog that you’ll see around the property! Rita got in touch with us before our stay and arranged for a car to pick us up from the train station, as the hotel is a bit of a hike up the mountain and we would not have been able to do that with our bags. She was also very responsive when we would message her via WhatsApp with any questions we had before arriving. Rita and the staff were very kind, welcoming, and friendly. In addition, our room was very comfortable and clean, and it was a big and spacious room, too! It was also right by the pool and hot tub. Another thing we loved was having a washing machine and a clothes drying rack - very convenient! We enjoyed a nice dinner at the restaurant beside the hotel our first night, and a yummy breakfast the next morning. We would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for an affordable stay, with clean and comfortable rooms, a wonderful staff, and in a peaceful and relaxing spot! Just be aware that this hotel is not actually in the town of Varenna - as mentioned above, it’s a bit of a hike up and down - maybe 15-20 minutes, and there is an incline. However, Rita provides a list of numbers for different taxis, so if you’d rather not hike up and down, it’s less than a 10 minute taxi ride, for about ☺Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilitiesNowrin13 Agosto 202410VerificataThe most homely accomadation I have ever stayed in. Rita is an amazing host, she was so helpful and friendly throughout. She makes the best croissants I have ever had in my life for breakfast (and I've travelled to France several times so thats saying something). If you are disabled or have small children with pushchairs this is not the place for you as there is a lot of hiking involved getting around the immediate area. It is 150m above lake level, so a daily climb back up from Varenna is effort in the heat of summer. This is why however the views from my apartment room were breathtaking. The room was spacious, cleaned every day and contained everything you would have in our own house at home (washing machine, detergent, ironing board and iron, airer etc) they have literally thought of everything. It is so rustic and couldnt be more italian. I loved it ❤ ☺Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilitiesChantal12 Agosto 202410VerificataWe thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Il Portichetto. The room had all the conveniences and was very clean. The pool was refreshing and a charming area to relax. Rita and the staff are very friendly and helpful and helped us with maps and ferry schedules and helped to arrange cabs. The breakfast is amazing and we had dinner at the restaurant twice and the food and service were excellent. My only regret is that we only stayed two nights. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Lake Como! ☺Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilitiesRobert, The Villages11 Agosto 202410VerificataRita the owner was very accommodating. She maintained contact with us before and during our travel from Milan to Varenna - Esino train station, and she actually provided our transportation to the hotel when we arrived. Rita is very hands-on and was available from early morning through late evening for guests. The other woman - I am so sorry to say I missed the name of the woman who spoke English and helped with translation as needed and was in charge of cleaning our room was just as helpful and professional as Rita. They make a great team and made us feel welcome and at home each day. Rita also was able to arrange taxis for us a few times so our reservations of these rides was expedited. The only challenge for us was that the walk both down to Varenna and the return was challenging on a relatively steep, curvy, cobblestone path unless one was prepared with good walking shoes with non-slip soles. It is important that guests understand they will need to either make the trek one or both ways or be prepared to secure a taxi or other transportation. The on-site breakfast was very good, and the restaurant food represented local cuisine well and was cooked perfectly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Il Portichetto. ☺Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
