Located in the center of Varallo, a short distance from the Sacro Monte and 30 km from both Monte Rosa and Lake Orta, Albergo Italia is located in a former convent, a historic hotel for 200 years.
Varallo is an Orange Flag city of the Italian Touring Club and its Sacro Monte is a UNESCO heritage site.
RESTAURANT
“After a good dinner you can forgive anyone, even your relatives.” ― Oscar Wilde
It has always been a point of reference not only for hotel guests but frequented above all by external customers both for business lunches and for convivial moments. The various rooms lend themselves to different needs.
Local products
Particular attention is paid to selected local products and suppliers such as the excellent DOP organic Carnaroli rice from Baraggia or the dairy products from Valsesian farms. The cellar also favors local wines from the Nebbioli lands and Piedmont in general.
The iconic dishes
The restaurant's tradition can be seen above all in its "iconic" dishes:
– tripe on Tuesday, market day, served from 9 in the morning
– the Milanese cutlet... not even in Milan...
– and then the snails, bagna cauda and risottos…
SPORTS AND TRADITION
Rafting, hydrospeed, canyoning, kayaking and much more, without forgetting Valsesian fly fishing. These are the river sports that can be practiced in Valsesia along the Sesia river and its tributaries. In the "Villa Becchi" sports center, however, you can practice fitness, aqua fitness, swimming and more. For lovers of traditions it will be possible to organize a "puncetto holiday" accompanied by a master Puncetta maker.
