Can anyone critique Hotel Eremo Gaudio in Varenna? I read at least one comment about its location, but not the hotel itself.
Thanks,
Jan

Hi Jan,
We stayed there several years ago. It is a very nice place, extremely clean, and modern by pensione standards. It commands a beautiful view of Lago di Como and we would go back there if we elected to spend time in the area again. We started walking there from the train station, but it was that really hot summer in Europe and I had to go back to the train station to get a cab, so it is a bit out of the way. I would suggest using a cab to get to the funicular that takes you up to the hotel. Breakfast on the rooftop terrace overlooking the lake is an experience that you will always remember.
Hope you enjoy it!

Thanks for the hotel review..sounds like a lovely spot and a scenic location. That's where we'll spend 3 nights in Sept.
