I'm finding alot already booked for our dates. I have an email out to Divina Vita, waiting for a response. Hotel du Lac, and Hotel Olivedo fully booked. Hotel Borgo le Terrazze looks nice but it's a ten minute shuttle ride to city center so maybe not very convenient.
I think Davina Vita is directly over Bar Il Molo. Double check, because if that's the case , it can be noisy on the weekends. I believe we stayed there awhile back, and checked out early because of the noise. The view is spectacular, and the manager was very understanding. Oh, the restaurant at Bar Il Molo is great for casual food, and there's a gelato shop right under the apartments.
If you're a deep sleeper, you'll be ok. Again, the view is spectacular ! Good luck!
We ate at Bar Il molo. Food was good and reasonably priced, service good, view spectacular. I'd stay at Davina Vita and bring ear plugs.
Try Hotel Villa Cipressi and/or Hotel Royal Victoria both of which I’d considered before visiting Varenna several years ago.
