"Palazzo Varesi" is a premier vacation/holiday apartment, ideally situated in the Heart of beautiful Locarno.

This well-appointed, fifth floor, corner apartment (with lift/elevator) is located just one block from the Lake Maggiore waterfront. It has two balconies, with magnificent views over the lake and surrounding mountains. The apartment has two bedrooms (one with king-size bed), large living room, and a new fully-equipped kitchen. One private, covered parking place is included.

"Palazzo Varesi" is only a three minute walk to the Piazza Grande and Old Town. Within a ten minute walk, one can reach the main boat dock, train station, public beach and pool, Teatro, Casino, tennis courts, and funicular (cable-car) station. A detailed House Book in the apartment contains much information on local shops, restaurants, services, and sights.

The Locarno area is one of exceptional natural beauty, combining a subtropical Mediterranean climate with snow-capped Alpine peaks. Locarno itself is the highlight of the 'Swiss Riviera,' blending the best of Swiss and Italian cultures; it is lively but not over-bearing, cultured yet relaxed.

Locarno is the ideal base from which to explore Switzerland and northern Italy. Many guests rent for three weeks or more (at a discount), making numerous side trips -- Lucerne, Zurich, Zermatt, Lugano, Milan, Verona, Lake Como, and Venice are all within a few hours drive.

The property is professionally managed by the Swiss agency 'HolAp'. It has earned a "3-star" rating from the Locarno Tourist Office. No smoking (except balcony), and no pets please. References are available upon request.
