Hotel Garden

Arrived a little flustered, met at the desk by a lovely friendly gentleman ‘Corrado’. Smooth check-in and escorted to our room. First impression of the room was that it was a little dated but air conditioning worked well and the beds were good quality & firm and lots of lovely fluffy towels. After a short time we appreciated our room and grew to like it very much. The balcony was large, with seats and small table and a canopy for shade. There was a great view of the lake and town. Best of all, the nights were peaceful and we had great sleeps. No noise from neighbouring rooms or housekeeping. Housekeeper Ilalia tended our room every day and we had regular fresh linen & towels. Breakfasts were delightful. Nice selection of fruit, bread, spreads, delicious cakes, & eggs cooked to order. Lunches were reasonably priced and very tasty with good choice of dishes. We were served by Carmen, Michela, Sylvia, & Dana. Always smiling and helpful. Fantastic service. The general hotel interior was spotless and full of Italian charm & character. Lots of original artwork on the walls. Lucas’s bar was very pleasant and not at all expensive. Great view of the pretty gardens and pool area from the bar. Alexandra manned reception in the evenings. She was helpful and easy going. It was a pleasure to become acquainted with her and chat about the local area and her homeland, Germany. The pool was a great size and really clean. Sun beds were robust, clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed Garda. A beautiful town with lots of character. Our top Would be to stay away from the harbour front and head to restaurants on the other side of the main road. Our favourite was PEGASO (great food, not expensive but best of all GREAT service). Also enjoyed Pizza Jolly. It’s a shame the hotel didn’t offer evening meals, we would definitely have eaten in if it had. Just to mention the gym and tennis courts. Both well maintained. If we hadn’t had such high temperatures we would definitely have made use of them but as it was, it was too hot for us to contemplate!

Had an amazing stay at hotel with brilliant family running it. Perfect location for discovering garda and the lake. So close just a few minutes to centre and same to the jetty for the boats. Pool was beautiful and not crowded at any time. The bathroom was a little dated and a touch small.but did the job. Lovely hotel and hope to be back soon

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this fabulous hotel. The location is excellent - a short walk from the lake side, boats, bars & restaurants. The hotel itself is somewhat dated but that is all part of its authentic charm. Rooms at the front have a view to the lake over the pool and beautiful gardens and there are great balconies. Breakfast is good with eggs cooked to order and a plentiful continental buffet. A limited lunch menu is available for days when you just want to relax by the pool. There is no evening menu but plenty of restaurants to choose from within a 10 minute walk. There is a lovely bar area which is open til late. The owners & all of the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. An absolute gem! Highly recommended.
