Gardone Riviera hotels

Pros: Perfect place! Definitely worth it! Wish to come back soon :)

Pros: We liked everything. It's a place we surely want to come back to. Our room was amazing- with the space, comfort and design. The garden was so peaceful with a very nice view overlooking the lake. We bought a local organic wine which was soooo delicious. The staff were very helpful and even arranged a reservation for us in a very nice restaurant (which they recommended). Breakfast was outside in the garden and it was simply perfect. Most offered food was organic and local. We have nothing negative to say...and it's a very dog friendly place.

Cons: nothing

Pros: One of the best B&B ever stayed. But watch out - the road that leads to the property is extremely tight... not for big SUVs.

Pros: Superb breakfast and lovely accommodation.

Cons: It would be brilliant if evening meal was provided a few evenings a week. Very hilly walk to local restaurant.

Pros: Amazing place and atmosphere! All details of the accommodation are right, it's very spacious and well maintained. Beautiful location, away from the crowd.

Pros: The place is just amazing. Everything is well thought of, from the comfortable and big room, the common areas, to the pool with the refreshments and the big and varied breakfast that changed every day. The hosts are very nice and really helpful. They help with food and attractions recommendations and tend to your every request immediately. We had a great time and would certainly come back if we're in the area again.

Cons: The property is located at the end of the village which offers amazing views of the lake and the surroundings, but it means you have to drive for a few hundred meters in a steep and narrow road (like a lot of other villages in Italy). After one time you get used to it, but it can be a little intimidating at first.

Pros: Very friendly... feels like home and family . Quiet and peacefull.. i love this place !!

Pros: Everything is perfect!!!!!!!!

Pros: Our second time here, Isolated and elevated from all the crowd! Amazing views of lake Garda and surrounded by green nature. Quiet and relaxing atmosphere, combined with excellent facilities and beautiful pool...what more you can ask for!?

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Very nice location and apartments and the hosts are making the stay a real pleasure. Very responsive, nice and pleasant. We stayed end of July and it was fully booked, yet one still has the feeling of a very calm place. Our apartments didn't have a terrace or garden, but as you can use the whole area with tables and chairs this doesn't matter. Great lake views and being a bit above makes it a bit less hot in summer. I can definitely recommend this place for a calm and relaxing holiday.

Pros: Really nice hotel at a lovely spot at the shores of Lake Garda. The hotel is immaculate with stylish furniture and a beautiful well kept garden. We loved it. Will definitely go back in the future. Well done!!!

Pros: Incredible hotel, best value for money. Super friendly staff, great facilities, beautiful garden, superb food, you name it... 10/10

Pros: Staff very friendly and helpful. Views are fantastic. Facilities are great. Hotel and rooms are very clean.

Pros: Position of hotel on th we lake. The room overlooked the lake, providing great views of the mountains. Staff were very friendly & hotel was very clean & decorated.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The breakfast was good. This is the worst Hotel I've been to and as we were both sick following the meal mentioned below I believe we should have a refund of at least 50% of the total bill which came to Euro 3,845.80. The hotel said they could not give a refund as the booking was made through you and the terms were no refunds given? I do not accept this as surely after being ill due to poor food I should have a refund. Please let me have your comments re a refund???

Cons: The hotel was really a spa there was nothing else to do. The Hotel was a fair way out of the nearest town so you had to have a car or use a taxi which I did not wish to do. The top restaurant was over the top and we were both sick after the meal. The other restaurant was "fish" plus a choice of two meat meals. In other words very limited not 5 star! The bedroom was Very small and the bathroom was tiny. I paid extra for a Lake view the overall cost was euro 3 ,270.00 whish was way over the top and very poor value.

Pros: Great Hotel. Beautiful views. Fantastic Spa on a par with a 'Champneys Health Spa' in the UK. Beautiful gardens, lots of parking, excellent breakfast with lots of options. Very tasty fruit and pastries. We had a car and went out for food in the evening so I can't comment on the restaurant in the evenings but the food looked excellent. We were not in the main part of the hotel (standard room) and did not have a direct view of the sea, but it did not matter to us because the sunloungers in the garden did that job and we were outside more than we were in the room. The main pool is also warm - unlike many hotels where they have unheated pools - this one is perfectly warm. The jacuzzi and steam/sauna rooms are great too. If you are brave enough you can go for a dip in the lake too. The water is clear and you can swim with the fish... and the ducks! We were previously in Simione which was not relaxing at all. Far too many people. Here is much more laid back. The staff were very helpful and the settings of this place are incredible. You get a bit of road noise on the left/right side of the hotel, but if you are in front of the middle of the hotel all you hear is the gentle ripple of the lake lapping against the wall. An incredible stay. Fantastic staff/concierge who are helpful and friendly. I would have no hesitation in staying here again. A relaxation-focused hotel with some great history and values.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Right on the lake

Pros: breakfast pool

Cons: room s basic considering cost

Pros: Let’s start with the good stuff - location has breathtaking views on lake Garda.

Cons: The hotel does not want to serve water from the tap. And charging EUR 7,50 for bottled water is simply a rip off, an unnecessary way of trying to increase profits. The same holds true for charging EUR 14 for drinks on the terrace (which has those same breathtaking views of the lake). The rooms are okay; clean but not spectacular. And the personnel keeps switching off the airco without asking my permission. All in all it was an okay experience but we will not revisit.

Pros: A great boutique hotel, romantic setting, great patio. Pamela & Betty were lovely people, efficient, friendly & fun x

Pros: Friendly staff, good breakfast., comfortable room Nice terrace to sit out for breakfast or drinks early evening Easy to walk to restaurants

Cons: Perpetually busy road outside

Pros: The building is beautiful and the breakfast terrace is just lovely. We received a warm welcome as per the reviews and the management team are happy to suggest local restaurants and boat departure points etc. The pool wasn't too busy even though we were staying during mid August and the room was as expected with a lovely balcony with good aircon and black out shutters. A 10 minute walk to the local restaurants/boat departure point on the sea front and easy parking for our car. We took the ferry to Limone which takes 1 hour on the fast boat - ask the hotel for their discount card. There is a beach front at Limone but we only stayed for a couple of hours for lunch before catching a fast boat back. The breakfast had a really good choice as per the reviews and lovely scrambled eggs made to order. We also had a light lunch on the terrace on arrival with lovely pastas, toasties and salads on offer at reasonable prices. A lovely chilled stay during our week long road trip!

Cons: The reviews mention the road noise which is busy and frequent but not the fault of the owners and still lovely pool area for our 1 night stay. The room décor is a little dated but as expected and in keeping with the genre of the hotel building.

Pros: a wonderful hotel in a historic building, delicious breakfasts with the view on garda lake, very close to the beach, wonderful owner and staff. beautiful town without crowds

Pros: Absolutely stunning on the outside and a wonderful location, view, etc. Breakfast included a decent spread and eggs were available to order. Location in the garden was lovely. Parking is slightly challenging but that's normal. Pool looked nice and they offer free bikes, but we didn't use either of these services.

Cons: Bed was terrible. Hard as a rock as well as the flat, hard pillows. Supposed AC was non existent and we had to open the windows and deal with outside noise to get any air. We had a room on the back side of the hotel and it seemed some neighbors decided to have a party at 3-4am. Shower door was broken. We reported the broken shower and lack of AC shortly after our check in and they made it seem like they were going to fix it during dinner, but upon our return realized nothing had been done. The next day, we reminded them during check out and they said no one could come at the late hour we had told them and the tech was going to come later that day. It seemed like we got punished for the previous guests of the room who said nothing AND the maid service who somehow didn't notice the door was broken??? Wouldn't have been a big deal, but they didn't seem very apologetic whatsoever. Based on price, not cozy bed, wish we had choose somewhere else.

Pros: Such friendly and homelike feeling atmosphere is so hard to find these days. My family had the best time here for 7 days. Owners make you feel like you belong here and never want to leave. Location is great as a base for trips both south and north of the lake. Very nice and neat breakfast service. Small restaurant open thru 11-21. Very nice pool. If I had ever considered going to the same place twice, Hotel Bellevue would be my first choice.

Pros: Beautiful hotel, view on the lake, parking is free, nice and helpful reception. Highly recommended

Cons: a bit noisy

Pros: The breakfast is very delicious and the coffee is too. The environment is wonderful, people are very kind and helpful.

Pros: The staff were really relaxed - not pushy at all. The view was super. The access to the lake for swimming and boat trips was really easy. Parking was straightforward.

Pros: The staff was the friendliest ever. They did everything to make us feel welcome. As a plus the free parking and location on the lake make us want to come back for more!

Cons: The only thing I could find for improvement was one of the beds in our triple room. Both others were fine though.

Pros: Awesome

Pros: Beautiful

Cons: Quite a long way out of town up steep hill. Car needed.

Pros: Fantastic service, views and food!

Cons: Nothing. Lots of steps but fine for me.

Pros: Excellent views, lovely swimming pool and tennis court. Fantastic food and service

Cons: Inattentive and cold reception staff

Pros: Amazing views, great service, lovely pool

Cons: Everything was perfect!

Pros: Amazing views over lake Garda, lovely and quiet. Beautiful gardens, incredible pool. Lovely staff. Very elegant dining on the terrace.

Cons: Rooms could do with a refresh - dated elegance. A little musty but improved with an airing.

Pros: My husband and I have stayed in a lot of hotels over the years and this was maybe not the most luxurious but in terms of hospitality, care for guests and overall service, this hotel exceeds some of the most famous. We will definitely go back next year.

Cons: This hotel is quite high above the lake and not ideal if you are not brilliant at walking. But this is combated by excellent Tuk tuk which costs 10 euros and takes you into the centre of Gardone where you can get a boat to any number of towns.

Pros: I liked ambience of the place, food and lack of regular spa area was fully compensated with perfect open air pool with nice bar.

Cons: Neighbor next door smoked cigars every night on the terrace. Maybe hotel shall consider non- smoking policy in outer areas since there is one in all rooms!

Pros: The most stunning location and building.

Cons: Our room had a huge covered balcony which was perfect for relaxing out of the sun.

Pros: Small hotel, excellent location, very friendly staff, marvelous food served on a terrace with a beautiful view of Lake Garda

Pros: The pool and deck along the lake are excellent.

Cons: Squeaky doors and floors in our family apartment.

Pros: good location

Cons: Small selection of food at breakfast, lots of empty dishes for food

Pros: Fantastic Garda Lake views, very nice own beach and swimming pool area. Spacious rooms and comfortable beds. I rarely return to same place twice, but this one for sure will visit.

Pros: Stunning location on lakeside Wonderful large annexe room with balcony covered in flowers. Lovely swimming pool & garden to sit in Very good breakfast Easy walk to restaurants at lakeside 15 minutes walk to old town & excellent visit to il Vittoriale, house & garden of a famous Italian Gabriele d'Annuncio.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Room spacious, very clean and comfortable with a balcony with fabulous view of the lake. Buffet breakfast was copious and very good. Evening meal was excellent and very good value for money.Staff attentive and helpful. Short walking distance to other restaurants and ferry service.

Cons: Nothing ! Everything was first class.

Pros: Loved this hotel, and have already booked again.

Pros: The view was amazing. Very good location. Nice pool.

Cons: The hotel has changed our room for the second night and it was a bit smaller and not so new and fancy as the first one.

Pros: One should take the suite in the Villa near the main Hotel. It is an amazing experience! Also having dinner at the hotel was a great choice, as you are sitting right at the water and contemplating the beautiful view at the lake, and enjoying a really delicious food at the hotel. Near the hotel is a botanical garden, highly recommended to visit, just a few minutes walking!

Pros: I liked everything. Peaceful location, incredible food and wine and very attentive, friendly staff.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The place is absolutely amazing!!!

Cons: The only thing we could think off is that the table clothes at dinner and breakfast didn’t match the setting. Quite subjective and completely not relevant ofcourse, but if that is the one thing that we didn’t like you can imagine how good it was.

Pros: A very stylish place to stay. Incredible views over the lake. Great breakfast including many things grown in the garden's that surround the accom. Friendly, interesting and helpful staff. Definitely better with a car as the accommodation is far from the town. Owner offered lots of advice on what to see in the local area.

Cons: Unfortunately we were told that walking in the extensive grounds wasn't an option as the garden hadn't been tended due to an injured gardener! Unlucky and only a temporary thing, but disappointing as it's clearly gorgeous and an important part of the experience of staying there.

Pros: The setting and the grounds defy the imagination. Absolutely one of the most gorgeous places I’ve ever been. Amy was incredibly warm and helpful, Owner, as well, extremely welcoming.

Cons: I wish the room had more ‘old’ touches. It has been ‘modernized.’ The view was spectacular!

Pros: The place is absolutely amazing! A villa sorrounded by orange, lemon and olive trees with rooms viewing the lake, with a pool with jacuzzi and outside massage facilities. We had dinner at the villa's restaurant and the food was excellent! The staff was very friendly, helpfull and made us feel very welcomed. I will come back for sure!

Pros: The food was delicious, we recommend eating in the hotel’s restaurant. The breakfast was amazing too!

Pros: Fabulous location. Great restaurant. Wonderfully helpful staff. Very individual property. Modern with a classy feel. Great pool area. Returning customer, one of our favourite hotels. Will no doubt return again. Amazing views from our room. First class

Cons: Nothing at all to complain about.

Pros: Beautiful location, views, garden, relaxing outside area..

Cons: We have missed there gym.

Pros: Everything! Especially the pool area and lake access. Free parking. Great breakfast.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: The stuff is very friendly.

Cons: Clean and Quiet.

Pros: Sheer perfection

Pros: the breakfast was excellent , and the location the same .

Pros: Hotel Bella Riva is set in a beautiful quiet part of Lake Garda. We ate in the restaurant both nights, which was absolutely brilliant. The staff were very friendly and helpful in organising activities.

Cons: The hotel rooms were quite hot in the night.

Pros: Safe Parking ( 3 places ) just in front of the reception. More places available but not so safe and not private . Good bed . Good assortment in the mini bar. Very friendly reception team helping us in everything. Bar keeper very professional . He knows a lot about Grappa and brandy. Huge choice of top alcohol at the bar .. The building is a nice mix of old and modern style . Large choice of food at the breakfast. And of course the view on the lake . And dogs are more then welcome! Thank you so much .

Cons: The staff at the restaurant and breakfast is not efficient. You won’t get anything spontaneously. If you smoke don’t expect them to bring an ashtray. If you try to catch their eyes to order something they won’t see you .. not acceptable for a 5 star hotel ( 2000€ for 4 nights). The manager should send them for a training program at the Bulgari hotel in Milano for example. The overall experience is bit deceiving because of the constant noise from the main road just behind the hotel. During high season it’s a non stop nuisance . Air conditioning is not powerful enough to maintain 23 degrees in the room if 34 degrees outside. Only 1 bathroom sink .. strange for a 5 star .

Pros: Design, not too big. Very good shower in bathroom. very good breakfast. Nice view on Garda sea and clean swimming pool area.

Cons: High end dinner. But not enough choice to eat in house each evening

Pros: Lovely hotel. Room was very nice and location is about a 10 minute walk from the lake shore but a couple of places to eat very close by. Good value for money and would highly recommend.

Pros: Fabrizio is a great host - firstly he sent us detailed instructions how to get to the place and where to park a car (30 meters from building with lot of free spaces, free of charge), then he met us in a property showing everything we might need, including map of the surrounding area with marked local places worth visiting. The apartment itself contains everything you might need for your stay, it has a beautiful lake view and nice balcony with table and chairs. I definitely recommend it to everyone going to visit Garda lake!

Pros: Perfect place and location, everything as promised. The lake view!

Cons: Pillows where too big - but thats just me!

Pros: The swimming pool is fantastic and the view from the pool is extremely beautiful. They also have a restuarant which has nice, simple food.

Cons: We drove up to the hotel in the evening, we used the address given on booking but we ended up driving a horrible, extremely steep one way road for at least 20 minutes which ended somewhere up in the mountains! So we tried calling the number provided to ask for directions but the number was wrong as well!! After almost an hour looking and trying to get a hold on someone on the hotel we went to an open restuarant that managed to give us right directions to the hotel, and the waiter told us this was happening all the time! They advertise that they are a 4* hotel but the rooms definitely are not a 4*! They are outdated and cheaply furnished, our room was really dirty and dust everywhere. The beds are really firm and the pillows are the worst! The sleeping sofa is really uncomfortable, only for one person and that person should be a kid, definitely not for an adult)! Upon arrival we where handed a paper that said we needed to pay extra 40 euros for cleaning. We where not happy about that since this was not mentioned anywhere on the booking site! We complained and after some arguments we ended up not paying this extra fee. We also went to the reception the second day and asked for something to clean the dishes and wipe the tables, but then they said it was not provided and we needed to go to the store and buy it ourselves!

Pros: Breakfast was good. The hotel is literally a few meters from the lake right next to the promenade. AC in the room.

Cons: There's no parking lot. You have to park your car on one of the public parking lots P1 or P2. It's quite a walk from there to the hotel. I recommend to carry just one bag :-)

Pros: Nice, simple room. Well situated. Good breakfast - you can sit outside with a gourgeous view to Garda, great feeling. Many restaurants nearby.

Cons: No free beach. The nearest one costs 5-6 euro and works until 7 p.m. But in about 2 km there is a free beach (Lido 84).

Pros: We liked everything about this hotel. Beautiful location - right on the lake and a very nice promenade. A lot of great restaurants close by. Clean room and common areas - fabulous breakfast provided. A friendly, caring, and knowledgeable staff that took excellent care of us! We are planning our return.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: This place was incredible. The breakfast was perfect. The staff was extremely welcoming and friendly. Will absolutely be returning and highly recommend it!

Pros: Location

Cons: There isn’t the air conditioner

Pros: Staff enormously helpful and felt like family by the end of our six days! View from our room was spectacular.

Cons: During the end of June heatwave, air conditioning would have been welcome.

Pros: Very friendly staff, they really helped us with everything . Breakfast was great . The hotel was nicely located , you could go to different restaurants close by

Cons: The room had air conditioner , however it was pretty loud and it’s control panel was very bright so that it wouldn’t let one sleep .

Pros: Right on the boulevard, we sat on our balcony and watched the moon rise - perfect.

Cons: Leaving.

Pros: Fabulous people and location couldn’t of made us feel more welcome

Pros: The staff was just great, helpful and happy. And the location was perfect!

Cons: The room was quite hot in the night even with the fan spinning.

Pros: Extremely friendly staff And very good dinner

Pros: The hotel owners are very friendly and uncomplicated. It is a great place to stay!

Pros: Beautiful apart, very pleasant hoster who helped us a lot. Recommend it to everyone!

Pros: I had the single bed which was tiny but a good base for a wedding I was there for this weekend. Power tripped but staff were helpful enough and booked a taxi for me. Breakfast very basic but did the job. If you pay for basic you'll get basic but I was hardly there so it did the job

Cons: Noise and over looks a building that is currently covered in blue sheeting so view of lake is not as expected.There are 2 doors to attempt to block the noise. The shower was poor and small but you get what you pay for right?

Pros: Staff, Location

Cons: Breakfast

Pros: Good value for money. Pretty central and quiet place. Just stopped for one night but happy for the service provided.

Pros: Price

Cons: Location- very busy, lot of noise all the time.The hotel is right next to the main road and our room was just above the main road. Impossible to sleep with an open window, the noise from the cars is too loud and frequent. Our room had a double bed, but the size of the room was rather just for one sigle bed, no space to move around. I didnt like the breakfast. I knew that they were continental, but I didnt know how basic it would be. No fruit or vegetables, no variety of food, everything so plain, not even an ordinary coffee. I would recommend this hotel for maximum 2 nights.

Pros: We liked the friendly and familiar atmosphere and the kindness of the staff. The room was cleaned every day and the windows are excellent and guarantee a quiet night.

Cons: The pillows were quite thin and uncomfortable.

Pros: Staff is super nice, very helpfull, smilling and profficient enough in English so that we had no trouble with whatever we needed. We requested an iron and we were promptly given one. Asked for a cab and we were pleasantly surprised to see a tuk-tuk like vehicle pick us up - it was super fun and it was 10 euros to get to Vittoriale. Swimming place is across the road with a nice boardwalk on the lake side.

Cons: The walls were dirty with black marks. The bathroom was tiny, barely enough room to turn around, shower cabin super small. We didn't have any room for opening our luggage properly so we had to open, take stuff out and then close it back up. Breakfast is very basic.

Pros: Easy to access the lake. Parking

Cons: The the cleaning lady forgot to lock the door. Not all food on the many was available to order.

Pros: It's very close to the lake, friendly stuff, free parking.

Cons: No privacy - very noisy, stuff does not talk english, very hard bed, cold and rather poor breakfast.

Pros: Waiters tried to make up for the avaricious nature of the owner. Room maids were also accommodating and polite. View was beautiful and hotel had once been a grand villa, now in need of investment.

Cons: Waiters (who did everything)including room repairs were overworked. WiFi seemed a huge favour. Rooms falling apart/ dangerous No water in fridges - you had to pay for it except at breakfast. No night reception so early check out was through a fire escape down many flights in near darkness. Inadequate warning as to location of rooms - up many flights of outdoor steps.also fact that a car is essential. A very steep 15 minute walk to reach hotel and downward slope to main road.

Pros: The staff was very nice. The view of the hotel was very nice.

Cons: The dinner menu was very small and way to expensive. Nothing special. The hotel needs to be updated. We had dirty (new) towels. And the shower was a Little gross.

Pros: The View was breath taking - the property outside good - inside Bedrooms -especially- terrible - Frig did not work - Telephone did not work - Hair dryer Broken - no light in Shower very dangerous - no draws to put undies - socks - etc., in just a Wardrobe - Balcony needed a good sweep and table cloth dirty plus cushioned seating falling to pieces - very sad as this property has great potential but sadly no money has been spent on it and Reception staff do not care when told about the above - they just tell you what you want to hear and do nothing - the SPA is not a SPA and has none of the facilities one would expect from a SPA and the credibility of the person giving supposed massage was laughable - she did not speak English and no certificates on wall and could use an aromatherapy oil that is not suitable for those with Blood Pressure or Diabetics or getting over Cancer. They should have had a form you fill in outlining any problems all SPA's have that - the Hotel had no understanding of this. Also the Hotel is NOT 5 mins from the Lake it is a good 25 mins walk down a terribly steep hill. It cost us £20.00 a day in Taxies - totally not suitable for older people or anyone without a Car - we were so disappointed as the brochure and the internet is totally misleading they are photo's taken years ago not current.

Cons: See the above - food was adequate but they never had enough at Breakfast time and Guest went with out or had to complain to no avail as they just did not have enough ordered each day for the Guest levels staying. Evening meals were very average - the staff serving were the best Customer Service the Hotel had - but worked 15 hrs a day and were put in positions they could n0t alter

Pros: The location was nice with lovely restaurants along Gardone riviera.

Cons: We booked what looked like a high spec junior suite but on arrival when the front of house opened our booking we were taken to a basic room room. We disputed that we had paid significantly more for the better room which they knew. We were then told the reason they tried to hide this and put is in a sub-standard room was because the junior suite wasn’t available for the duration of our stay and that we could only stay there for 2 nights as other guests would be coming and that we would then be moved to a standard room (even though we had booked the junior suite for 4 nights weeks in advance). The junior suite was very average - no complimentary water, very limited toiletries and no hand towels until half way into our holiday. We had been looking forward to the spa bath but this did not work despite reception saying that someone would come to fix it when we first reported it on the first day. None of the electric sockets worked either or the shaver plug so we were left with dead shavers and electric toothbrushes. Breakfast also very average with the majority of the time having to ask for something as the buffet was empty. Reception staff were generally very rude when we tried to sort things out and when we asked to cancel the last few nights so we could go somewhere better the hotel refused, despite us asking numerous times and even booking.com requesting this on our behalf! Would not recommend this hotel to anyone.... it is grossly overpriced and not value for money at all.

Pros: Ideal hotel for couples. Good facilities, friendly staff fabulous indoor pool, sauna, jacuzzi and massage parlor.

Cons: Steep hill to hotel but otherwise great location.

Pros: This hotel has the potential to be utterly beautiful, it's so charming and Italian. The building itself is stunning, the location great and views spectacular. Our bedroom and bathroom was totally unique in decor which we loved and bedroom view of the lake fantastic. Sadly a lot of things let it down and they've let it become tired and unloved. One waiter was particularly fantastic and made up for a lot of it's shortcomings!

Cons: The hotel is so tired, it's sad, it doesn't look like the website pictures. It most certainly is not a 4 star hotel. The food was terrible and if you weren't early to breakfast, barely anything left. There was hardly any staff on hand so everything was hard work. No service by the pool, borrowing an iron resulted in a row and me having to go into the cleaning basement to use. Towel hire was 8 euros A DAY and was a crusty old towel. Facilities were dire and majority of staff were so rude apart from one wonderful waiter who seemed so embarrassed by their incompetence. This place could be spectacular, I had such a love/hate relationship with it. But it is not 4 star and grossly overpriced at the moment. I hope they invest and restore it to it's glory.

Pros: The location is nice, but very old and poorly taken care of. The property it is an ancient villa with ancient tower.

Cons: The place is below the standard of a 4 star hotel. They should downgrade it to at least 3. The prices are too high not only for the stay but for the extras: 4euros a bottle of water and 8euros for an orange juice. The breakfast was very poor. The place is not good taken care of and it is not very clean. Things are old. It is a classical scam for tourist. The property it is up on a hill, far from water and there is no service to go down to it and not even agreement with any facility around you can have a beach chair to. There is no air up the hill as the place is kind of close with architecture. The swimming pool is full of mosquitos as they don’t take care of the plants around and don’t disinfect the area.

Pros: We enjoyed the indoor pool as it was quite. We liked the view from our room. Breakfast was fine.

Cons: We didn’t have a car and it was a 12 minute hike up a very steep hill. On arrival both members of the reception party were distracted on the phone and trying to check us in with the priority been the telephone. They started with our check in and continued to answer the phone even though this could have been handled between them. Rooms were old fashioned very small bathroom and shower obstructed the toilet. At breakfast we had to order tea or coffee which could have been solved with a coffee machine and we were not the only ones waiting. The hotel only offered set menu per night one option at 35 euro without a drink..options very limited..our hotel did not provide any discounts for any cruises on lake Garda where most hotels offered this as informed by the ferry service which gave 20% discount..

Pros: The view was incredible!!

Cons: Dinner was awful and expensive, I got food poisoning from it, tried to speak to reception about it but got palmed off, ruined the last day. Also there was no water or glasses in the room so had to pay €8 for 2 very small bottles of water!

Pros: everything in that hotel is simply a disaster. not worth a visit

Cons: this hotel is completely unfit to host people.
