Inside a 1890 Lombard courtyard in the historic center of Varese, hides Cortiletto Biroldi: restructured over the years, but still true to its original character. From the street you wouldn't guess there's a place to stay behind that archway — and that's exactly the charm of it: real local families still live here, and for a few nights, our guests become part of this authentic corner of Italy. BelSorrisoVarese - Rooms & Apartments offers 9 rooms, each with its own colour identity (azure, lilac, bordeaux, and more), and 11 apartments suited for short or longer stays. All units are air conditioned. We're also perfectly located for practical stays: just steps from Varese's train stations and pedestrian center, 60 meters from Filippo Del Ponte Hospital and 350 meters from Circolo Hospital (Fondazione Macchi), and about 25 minutes by car from Milan Malpensa Airport. Whether you're here for the lakes, a hospital visit, university, or work, we welcome you ourselves— this is a family-run property, and we're the ones behind every message and every stay. An 1890 courtyard, a real Italian experience, in the heart of Varese.

Our rooms are cozy, informal, and completely renovated — each one identified by its own colour (azure, lilac, bordeaux, and more) rather than a generic number. Every room has an independent entrance within the courtyard, a private ensuite bathroom with shower, and is fully air conditioned, with independent heating for cooler months. You'll also find a 32" wall-mounted Smart TV, wireless internet, a safe, and a small fridge in every room. Beds are fitted with resistant memory foam mattresses and pillows, and bathrooms come stocked with towels, bathrobe, hairdryer and shower gel. The property is soundproofed, so despite being right in the city, nights here are quiet and restful.

You'll be just 3 minutes on foot from both Varese train stations, and 4 minutes from the heart of the city and its pedestrian center. Everything you need is close by: supermarket, pharmacy, café, pastry shop, restaurants, and church, all within a short walk. A bus stop is just 20 meters away, connecting you to the city center and train stations. The Filippo Del Ponte Hospital is 60 meters away, and Circolo Hospital (Fondazione Macchi) is 350 meters away — convenient if you're here for medical care or to support family. The University of Insubria is a few minutes on foot. Lake Varese is 5 minutes by car, the Sacro Monte di Varese (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) is about 20 minutes away, and Milan Malpensa Airport is roughly 25 minutes by car.
