We had a great view on Lago di Garda. I totally recommend this hotel to everyone :) It was only a few minutes from the centre. It fulfilled my expectations.

“Thank you for a most enjoyable stay at this wonderful location.”
The whole experience from checking in to checking out was exceptional. Allessandro, Fabio and Victoria made me feel very welcome with their excellent attentive service and food and wine recommendations. The food was delicious and extremely well presented. The hotel location on the edge of the lake is magnificent. The room was spotless and nicely decorated. Thank you for making this part of my vacation stress-free and comfortable.

“Good evening, unfortunately we do not recommend this hotel because it does not offer parking, althou”
Good evening, unfortunately we do not recommend this hotel because it does not offer parking, although we booked 3 rooms. We had to look for a parking space 20 minutes walk from the hotel, with 2.5 euros per hour. From the first evening we had problems with hot water and the TV did not work. There was a strong, very unpleasant smell in the rooms. The food was disappointing.
