Family Suite Hotels in Varese, Lombardy
12 family-friendly hotels with family suite in Varese . Handpicked for families who want the best.
Varese gives families a choice between lake, hills and town, with Lake Varese, the Sacro Monte and Villa Panza all within a short drive of each other. I compared the seven hotels on this page that list family suites: Hotel Ristorante Vecchia Riva on the lake, Bis Hotel Varese, UNAHOTELS Varese, Albergo Sacro Monte Varese, Art Hotel Varese, Crystal Hotel Varese and Hotel Stelvio. Four of them add a kids' club or a playground, and several have a spa or a swimming pool. I looked at which one gives a family the most room and the most to do without a long drive.
Varese is a Lombard city at the foot of the Alps, with a historic centre, Lake Varese nearby and the Sacro Monte above the town. It is a calmer alternative to Lake Como or Lake Maggiore, and families can reach Swiss and Italian lakes and the Val Grande National Park by car.

🛏️Why Varese is Great for Hotels with Family Suite
A family suite is only useful if the hotel around it fits how the family travels. This is how I sort the seven by what children and parents get beyond the room.
For children who need entertainment, UNAHOTELS Varese and Albergo Sacro Monte Varese stand out. UNAHOTELS Varese is a 4-star hotel at the foot of the Alps with views of the mountains and the racing tracks, a swimming pool, a kids' club, a spa and wellness centre, a game room and family suites, and it scores 8.5 from about 1,680 reviews. Albergo Sacro Monte Varese is a 4-star hotel in a historic building with a kids' club, a playground, a game room, a garden, a sun terrace, a spa, family suites and bike rental. It has only about 70 reviews, but a score of 8.7.
For a lake setting, look at Hotel Ristorante Vecchia Riva and Bis Hotel Varese. Hotel Ristorante Vecchia Riva is a 3-star hotel 10 metres from Lake Varese with lake views, a swimming pool, a kids' club, family suites and bike rental, and it scores 8.7 from about 980 reviews. Bis Hotel Varese is a stylish 4-star hotel a 5-minute drive from the city centre, with a garden and outdoor pool, spa and wellness facilities, a playground, a game room, beach access and air-conditioned rooms and apartments with a mini fridge. It has an 8.0 score from about 2,180 reviews.
For a quieter, more classic stay, Art Hotel Varese and Crystal Hotel Varese are the two to compare. Art Hotel Varese is a 4-star hotel next to the Villa Panza Museum and 500 metres from the historic centre, with parquet floors, some rooms overlooking gardens, an Italian restaurant, free parking and family suites, and it scores 8.7. Crystal Hotel Varese is a 4-star hotel 800 metres from Villa Panza with a fitness centre, a spa and wellness area, a bar and family suites, and a score of 8.0 from about 1,800 reviews.
Hotel Stelvio is the practical, lower-cost choice. It is a 3-star hotel 900 metres from the city centre and the train station, with mountain-style air-conditioned rooms, free outdoor and garage parking, free Wi-Fi, family suites and bike rental. It has no pool or kids' club, which is why I would choose it for a family that wants to be out sightseeing all day. Whichever hotel you choose, ask for the exact suite layout and how many beds it holds, since the descriptions do not say. A suite with two rooms matters more than the star rating.
Parent's take
After comparing the seven hotels, I would choose UNAHOTELS Varese for a family whose children want a pool and a kids' club, and Hotel Ristorante Vecchia Riva for a lakeside week with family suites and bike rental. For a quiet stay beside Villa Panza I recommend Art Hotel Varese. In every case I would ask for the exact suite layout before booking, because a two-room suite matters more than a star rating.
