Chi sceglie il Borducan Boutique Hotel cerca qualcosa di diverso. Non il classico 4 stelle con camere standard, ma un luogo autentico, romantico, silenzioso. Il soggiorno si svolge in una vera villa in stile liberty del 1924, situata nel centro pedonale del borgo storico del Sacro Monte di Varese, riconosciuto come Patrimonio UNESCO.

Ogni camera, arredata con mobili originali d’epoca, è pensata per favorire il riposo e la connessione con l’ambiente circostante. Alcune offrono un balcone panoramico, altre pavimenti in parquet. Tutte sono dotate di minibar, TV e bagno privato. Il clima fresco del borgo rende superflua l’aria condizionata: qui si dorme con la finestra socchiusa e il canto degli uccelli al mattino.

Il ristorante è aperto sia a pranzo che a cena. A mezzogiorno si pranza con vista sul Lago di Varese e il Parco del Campo dei Fiori, mentre la sera si cena a lume di candela in veranda. Il menù cambia con le stagioni e valorizza i prodotti del territorio. Non è prevista la presenza di bambini durante la cena, per garantire tranquillità e intimità.

Il bar offre un’esperienza da provare: l’Elixir al Borducan, liquore alle erbe e scorza d’arancia, servito secondo tradizione. Perfetto per chiudere una giornata o accompagnare un dolce fatto in casa.

La colazione è servita in terrazza, con vista aperta sulle colline e sul lago. Crostate artigianali, caffè preparato al momento, frutta fresca: un rituale che invita a rallentare.
Il Sacro Monte è perfetto per camminare, respirare e lasciarsi ispirare. La Via Sacra, le cappelle affrescate, il santuario e il borgo medievale offrono un’esperienza culturale e spirituale immersa nella natura.

Nei dintorni si trovano sentieri panoramici per il trekking o l’e-bike, belvederi sul lago, un osservatorio astronomico, piccoli musei e botteghe artigiane. Il Lago di Varese dista solo 15 minuti, così come la città di Varese con i suoi giardini, palazzi storici e boutique. In meno di un’ora si raggiungono Milano, il Lago Maggiore o la Svizzera.
- Parcheggio riservato gratuito per tutti gli ospiti, a 5 minuti a piedi dalla struttura (zona pedonale, in salita)
- Possibilità di transfer privato da/per la città o l’aeroporto di Malpensa
- Edificio storico senza ascensore, non adatto a chi ha difficoltà motorie

Al Borducan non è solo un hotel: è un rifugio per chi desidera bellezza, lentezza e autenticità.
