This was a beautiful property! We had a car so the trip there was easy and lovely! The property is so pretty! It is nice to just walk the grounds! Breakfast was nice! Lovely and quiet! Nice selection of food!
The distance above Varenna but I wouldn’t say I disliked it…… just be prepared. We took advantage of the free night shuttle to Varenna. We took the walk path down from Vezio and took the night shuttle back that evening. Varenna was amazing!

The view was immaculate and the property was the prettiest I’ve ever seen. The rooms were more like apartments, everything you need and more. Feels like you are a local and living in their village, we felt very welcome there. And they make their own olive oil from their trees in the property that you can purchase. There is a Castle 2 mins waking distance that has beautiful gardens, a must see (fee to enter was included with the hotel). The staff were extremely nice and we thank Valentina for making us feel welcome.
Nothing. Everything was great!

Staying at Castello di Vezio in the Village was a very different experience from staying in a conventional hotel, and that was a large part of its charm.
We stayed in a beautiful village house that felt warm, authentic, and extremely cozy. It is not a modern luxury hotel room; it feels more like visiting a relative who lives in a lovely mountain village, with dark wooden furniture, traditional decor, and plenty of character. Despite the rustic atmosphere, the house had everything we could need, including air conditioning, a washing machine, and all the practical amenities required for a comfortable stay.
The breakfast was modest in size but excellent in quality. It is enough to start the day without leaving hungry, although it should not be expected to serve as the main meal of the day.
The staff were wonderful, particularly the reception team, who were friendly, helpful, and excellent throughout our stay. The entire setting is peaceful, distinctive, and memorable. It offers a much more authentic experience than a standard hotel and is a wonderful place for travelers looking for something with character. The views from the hotel are also amazing.
The most important thing to understand before booking is the location. The property is situated high above Varenna, and the climb should not be underestimated. Walking up or down can be enjoyable once or twice as part of the experience, but it is not necessarily something most guests will want to do repeatedly, particularly during hot weather.
After that, guests will probably rely on the hotel’s transportation service, which has an additional cost and must be arranged in advance. For the return journey, especially after hours, there is also a surprisingly good municipal transportation service using small vans. Once we understood how everything worked, transportation was manageable, but it requires some planning.
The restaurant service was efficient and professional, although it felt more reserved and formal than the warm, expressive Italian hospitality we had expected.
Overall, most of the things that initially surprised us were not really faults with the property. They were mainly the result of our own expectations, limited research before arriving, and some cultural differences. With the right expectations, this is a unique and excellent place to stay.

Maisemat olivat mahtavat! Ihmisten vähyys oli myös ihana. Majoitus oli sympaattinen ja ihana koira!
Kulkeminen haastavaa, taksia ei saatu tilattua etukäteen. Lyhyestä kyydistä jouduimme maksamaan 25€ per suunta, mikä tuntui kohtuuttomalta. Henkilökunta vähän epäystävällisiä ja ravintolan hinta-laatusuhde ei kohdannut. Aamiainen ei kuulunut hintaan.
