Hotel Horizon Wellness & Spa Resort - Best Western Signature Collection
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Book it if you want a spa break with free parking at a mid-range price and you will mostly drive. If you want to explore Varese on foot or you do not eat meat, one of our other two picks may suit you better.

This is our Best Value choice in Varese. It suits couples who want a spa weekend, families who need family rooms, and drivers who appreciate free parking. The hotel is also tagged as pet friendly.
Skip it if you want to walk to the old town. The sights in our data are about 39 to 41 minutes away on foot, which is far. Vegetarians should also note that guests say the restaurant leans heavily on meat.
Location and getting around
The address is Via Giovanni Macchi 61, outside the centre of Varese. The location score is 8.2.
By our straight-line estimates, Palazzo Estense is about 3.1 km away, roughly 39 minutes on foot, and the Basilica of San Vittore is about 3.3 km, around 41 minutes. Both are over 30 minutes, so plan on public transport or a taxi for trips into town. These times have not been verified.
Free parking is listed, which makes a car the simplest option. Check that a space is available for your dates.
What guests say
The score is 8.5 out of 10 from 2,384 reviews, joint 4th of the 6 eligible hotels we compared. The sample is the largest of our three Varese picks.
The spa is the main draw. Guests mention indoor and outdoor pools, a sauna, a Turkish bath and sensory showers. Spa access rules, opening times and any extra charges are not confirmed, so ask before you book.
Breakfast is described as a varied buffet with sweet and savoury items, including Greek yogurt, granola and fresh coffee. The weak point is dinner: the restaurant specialises in steak and meat dishes, and guests say choices for non-meat eaters are limited.
Price and how it compares with our other picks
Reference prices seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 for 2 adults came to about €122 per night, a little above the sample median of €117.50. These are not live quotes, so check today's price for your dates.
Our Budget pick, UNAHOTELS Varese, scores 8.6 at about €108.85 per night and is closer to town. Our Luxury pick, Hotel Di Varese, scores 9.2 at about €148 per night and sits a few minutes from the old town. All three are four-star hotels.
What the extra money buys here over the Budget pick is the spa, a terrace and free parking. If you will not use the spa, the cheaper option makes more sense.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 6 eligible hotels in Varese. The Best Value slot balances guest score, number of reviews and reference price, so it is not necessarily the cheapest. This hotel scored well on all three, with more reviews than any of our other picks in the city.
It also has the widest facility list in our data: gym, spa, pool, restaurant, free parking, family rooms, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, garden and terrace.
