Villa Cagnola

I have never stayed in a more beautiful location!!! I learned while there that this location has won MANY awards as a wedding venue. I can clearly see why! Not only are the grounds remarkable, but the views and adjacent park are just breathtaking! We had a family room with 4 twin beds that were comfortable, so very clean, with plenty of hot water and great water pressure. The architecture was so impressive. I can't imagine the beauty in its hey day ! The staff was so accommodating! The two women I encountered were just so lovely!!! They could not do enough for us! My family and I are very appreciative!! I was so very pleased with the value of the night's stay. We actually found Villa Cagnola by accident. We were driving around Northern Italy and didn't quite make the city we were aiming for. I am so glad, or we would have missed this spiritual experience!

We spent a night here as a family while on a stopover. The reception staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. The rooms we had were small but very clean and pleasant. The surroundings are simply magnificent, with a breathtaking Italian garden overlooking Lake Varese. We also enjoyed the breakfast, which was simple and delicious.

Property is beautiful, the restaurant has a daily set menu for dinner (25 EUR) and it includes one starter (2 types of vegetarian pasta - a gnocchi and a ravioli on this day), one main (a meat or fish dish), dessert (2 choices) and it included water and wine. There was no a la carte menu. The food was good, the service was nice. The property itself is beautiful and peaceful. Breakfast was good, fruits, yogurt, many options for pastries/cakes, scrambled eggs, etc. They also had a lot for people who might be gluten free. Specially packaged. The front desk was especially friendly and welcoming.

The property is surely impressive, but needs some refurbishing or upkeep. It is a huge and beautiful property that needs to be modernized, but overall it is good value for money. The is in grounds parking, just have to ask for it.

Truly epic location. Wonderful park. Friendly staff.
