Staff friendly & helpful, room & dining area bright & well furnished.
Beautiful outlook across lake from dining room & balcony, nice to have good standard patio furniture on balcony.
Breakfast very good with lots of options.
Easy walk from train station, but we did take a taxi back as slightly uphill & a warm day.
Lovely walks into town or lakeside, plenty of dining options.

This lakeside hotel is in good condition and staff friendly and helpful. Parking, arranged by the hotel, is off-site, but close by and secure. Internet is a bit intermittent which is a shame

The hotel is nice but our room was one of the old ones. Very nice view though. Breakfast was nice. Location is perfect, nice area with things to see, do and great restaurants. The staff was very friendly. Even though there was a lot of restaurants nearby, the area seems quiet and peaceful. A couple of minutes with taxi from the train station. However the pictures is a bit misleading for there was no beach in the other side of the street. A nice beach walk though. Except for that, we would recommend this hotel

Excellent breakfast included. Lake view rooms are beautiful and worth paying for, ours looked on to a wall and patio and was not very appealing, most other rooms were better.

Great location, on the shore overlooking Lake Garda . We arrived via the train, train station was about 15 minute walk down the hill. Recently refurbished room which was excellent and so was the bed. I would highly recommend the hotel.
