This resort has some of the nicest and comprehensive facilities. Huge spa complex , grounds for walking, pool table, ping pong, foose table, tennis. It also has its own private villa Amaigo for secluded privacy. It’s a shame then that service is so random ranging from very good to pretty dire. Staff don’t in general seem very warm or friendly however they do try to be helpful. There is some noise in all rooms from banging of doors starting around 6am... so although rooms are clean well equipped and having plenty of light and views they are not well insulated from sound. On this occasion we had a ground floor twin garden room. I had requested a very very quiet room so perhaps this was overlooked. I would love to give this property a 5 stars but because of some staff who don’t seem comprehensively trained and give out incorrect information the overall experience feels lacking in that extra touch. I would still recommend staying here because of the facilities. Room service despite covid challenges was also very satisfactory.…

Spent 3 nights here for our anniversary and my birthday getaway but pretty annoyed but will start with the positives: - beautiful gardens - nice pools - Japanese treatment was very relaxing - nice variety at breakfast - waiters are friendly and helpful - porters are friendly and again helpful - all staff were masks constantly - mask is provided if you do forget yours (I did on the second morning at breakfast) - pools are clean - rooms are clean Negatives - with the exception of Michael and the night shift reception staff, day shift staff are not so pleasant. The male staff on our check-out was rude. - restaurant menu is overpriced, I had the catch of the day on our first night but wanted salad instead of mash potatoes and was charged for full salad as an extra but still didn't get the mash. Better to drive into town 10-15 minutes for great places to eat. - requested for room with a view prior to arrival but got the ground floor with views blocked by hedges and trees. However the room was exactly what we expected for the delux we paid for. - Michael at the reception did arrange to move us to the second floor from our second night with a better view but the room was at a lower standard to what we paid for. Shower was coming in drips, hardly any water. Robes provided was worn out and too small for my husband even after swapping with mine. Room was smaller than the one we had for the first night. - no complimentary teas or coffee or kettle provided in the rooms. - Spa pool gets busy so not much of relaxing there. All in all we were disappointed so I'm afraid like other reviews we'll be staying elsewhere next time. …

We decided to stay here on our last few days of our visit to Italy. We decided to stay at this resort since it was near the Bologna airport. The resort has very well kept facilities and the rooms are well appointed and very clean. They have several pools that you can relax. We were able to find the Olive pool to be empty where we where the only tow people utilising the pool for the afternoon. The main pool area was quite busy and found this to be perfect. They have this pool and the Rose pool apart where they allow just 28 guests in each. So be sure to check either of these two pools if you just want to relax. They also recognised the COVID rules, where masks were mandatory and social distancing was exercised.

Near Bologna. Well priced with excellent food. Spa and outdoor pool are in great conditions. Rooms are air conditioned and spacious. A little hard to find. The post code takes you to within 2 kms! Very high standards throughout

We stayed 4 days and enjoyed our time there. The views and the landscape are gorgeous, very green and lots of nature. The area is very large and you can have nice walks. There are different swimming pools depending on what you want, two a bit far from the reception where you have more privacy, and the big ones in the center close to the restaurant and the bar. People were very friendly and kind. We joined the summer night activity at the pool and it was worth it. Lots of delicious Italian food and some tasty cocktails. The room was good, however we had some moisture on the roof next to the main door and the shower had some yellow colour in the corners. We didn´t get any bottled water in the room after the first day. People at the spa reception were always very friendly and willing to help.…

Dear Maria we really thank you for your time and for the nice words spent toward our resort and staff. Palazzo di Varignana offers 7 different pools. 5 of them are in the main complex and include a kids pool and a salt water hydro pool. The other two are reserved for our clients staying at Le Terrazze and are a bit faraway from the main ones in order to guarantee privacy and quiet. We are having maintenance checks in all our rooms therefore we will have all these small problems resolved in short time. We put great attention to daily maintenance service and we apologize for the state of your room Thanks again and we hope to welcome you again at our resort Palazzo di Varignana
