Very Good

Beautiful hotel really deserves 4 stars in our opinion. Everything here is perfect. Excellent parking, lovely room, lovely staff, lovely outside space (altho a cold plunge pool would be nice, as only indoor heated pool & warm jacuzzi) & great position only short walk to main town which is lovely. Also lovely trattoria in Rivoltella 3 min walk from hotel. Our 2nd stay here & would def stay again if in this area
A very nice hotel. The room was comfortable and we liked the small pool. There is a spa, sauna and gym equipment. There is a roof area with loungers and a tub. Breakfast is very good with a large selection of fruits and cereals and the Italian version of bacon and eggs. I won't comment on the evening meals as Italians eat a bit different to English. Finally the staff, excellent
Not in peak condition but traditional Italian old style . Restaurant was good and reasonable prices . Considering the room rate I would say good value for money , and view of lake across the way .
Nice friendly staff , parking and garage good .
My wife and I and new baby really enjoyed our stay. It was clean, the staff were friendly and the food was very good. The bed was a firm mattress, which suited us!
The facilities were excellent. The hotel has so much to offer and is obliging and welcoming

Comfortable quiet hotel
Evening meal good with interesting choices.
Reception helpful and friendly. Breakfast selection large but scrambled eggs frequently cold, rubbery and green. On request provided with a good quantity of gluten free food. Also had a kettle and extras in the bedroom plus a fridge
There is no sitting area except the main reception and also the bar is in the dining room.
Outdoor space limited but there are nice sun decks with a hot tub on one.
Good selection of food at breakfast, bar service available till midnight. Airconditioning works well in rooms which are a little on the small side. Swimming pool very nice for splashing around in but not for serious swimmers. Hotel appeared slightly understaffed at peak meal times but the staff are incredibly good-natured and hard working. Be nice to them.
Nearest lake swimming is 5 min walk away. Nice beach cafe but - dead fish and dog poo on pebbly beaches. Ducks and swans can be a nuisance. Water is weed-ridden. We decided not to swim in the lake. There is a better looking public beach at the tip of Sirmione beyond Catullo's Grotto (well worth a look, as well as the Roman villa in Desenzano). Recommend evening aperitif at BarRio_58 and then eating at Rossi e Rossi.
This is a nice 3 star hotel.
Situated approx 30 mins walk to Desenzano and 2hrs walk to Simione castle.
Friendly multilingual staff
Very clean and tidy.
Room was quiet and the bed was very comfy.
We didn't use the facilities i.e. pool, spa tub etc as we left the hotel in the morning and came back late at night. But they did look quite good.
We did use the free hotel bikes for a couple of days ( we were being charged for using them for more than 3 hrs on the final bill. But when disputed that this was not mentioned or shown anywhere this was quickly deleted) The paths are wide and used for cyclists as well as pedestrians. So make use of them and go exploring 👍
Need to know
Do not expect the hotel to be situated on the lake as per description. You have to cross a main road outside of the hotel and walk down a narrow road to the lake. Approx 500 metres.
There were no views of the lake from the balcony. The trees have obviously grown since the pictures were taken. You could see some of the lake from the rooftop though
WiFi was good around the reception area and public areas, but in the room I got a very vague signal near the door but no where else in the room.
Pet are allowed ( unlike Expedia description) and several dogs were taken in the breakfast room during our stay but were no trouble.
Electric sockets in the room were all mainly the modern 3 pin plug, bar one 2 pin socket that was in the bathroom. So if you intend to charge a lot of gadgets, take 3 pin adapters.
An ideal hotel - good location near lake. Close to handy bus links. Our only gripe was that the sheets were not changed during a 6 night stay - otherwise a great base to stay.

Lovely hotel, professional and friendly staff. Great breakfast and restaurant for dinner.A lot of local generic info but would have been enhanced by providing each room with a ‘what’s on file’ e.g which towns had s market and on which day.
We stayed for 10 days at this hotel and it was a fantastic base for our first trip to Lake Garda. All the staff were really friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome. The hotel itself is clean and comfortable. Breakfasts were good with lots of choice. The fresh fruit salad was delicious. We also ate at the hotel twice in the evening and the food was very good. The room was comfortable and clean - my only slight criticism is that the mattress was firmer than I like (but of course that is personal preference - my husband thought it was perfect!).
The location was brilliant - a 2 minute stroll to the lake and boardwalk. It's roughly a 30 minute walk into Desenzano town from where you can catch the ferry to other locations on the lake or the train to Milan (50 mins) or Venice (1 hour 40). Just round the corner from the hotel is a lovely area called Rivoltella which has some good restaurants and a great ice cream parlour.
A big plus for the hotel is that they have bikes which you can borrow. These are well maintained - we particularly enjoyed cycling to Sirmione and sailing past the long line of cars queuing up to get there!
