The Boscolo Porro Pirelli Hotel enjoys a fabulous position; in the countryside close to the city of Varese and just a short drive away Lake Maggiore and the Swiss border; a site chosen in the 18th century by the Count Gian Pietro Porro Pirelli for his sumptuous Baroque villa which he furnished with exquisite items collected during his many voyages in the far east.

Transformed in luxury hotel, complete with restaurants, fitness area and meeting rooms, the Villa still conserves traces of the past owner's flamboyant personality and his fascination for the orient. Today, antique Chinese furnishings, Thai woodcarvings, and Balinese marquetry adorn rooms and suites which are also home to prints and photographs of the surrounding province of Varese.

Lunch is served in the Le Meridiane Restaurant in an attractive, contemporary styled dining room overlooking the property's Italian garden. In the evenings, the "Ristorante del Conte" opens its doors to those wishing to experience the finest Italian and International cuisine in the most elegant of surroundings; characterised by the precious silverware, antique flooring and magnificent coffered ceiling which all date back to the time of the villa's construction.
Occupying what was once the orangery of the villa, today's "Le Serre nel Parco restaurant provides an idyllic setting for wedding receptions and glamorous gala dinners.

For those wishing to indulge in moments of complete relaxation, the hotel offers a sauna, steam room and 4-seat Teuco spa bath. For aficionados of the gym, there is a fitness area equipped with state-of-the-art Technogym appliances.

The Boscolo Hotel Porro Pirelli's extremely elegant function rooms add to the appeal of this property as unique venue for top level business events and high profile social occasions.
