We picked this hotel based on the photos and reviews, but they didn’t match our experience. The hotel is away from the lake about a 20-25 minute walk, although the hotel does offer a shuttle bus. You can also get free local travel and entry to some attractions using the local Garda card. Just ask the reception team. The hotel is close the busy main road and noise was an issue. Traffic started very early in the morning. Internally you could hear everything from doors slamming, on-going conversations, to showers, all night. The rooms are basic but clean, definitely dated some might call retro. The food was not as expected. Breakfast was poor, no omelettes although the egg lady would make fresh fried eggs. If you got in after the coaches had left, the buffet had been obliterated by people making sandwiches for their trips home. Staff struggled to replenish this area. As for the evening meals we liked having a designated table, but it was just like being in a school canteen. It was overcrowded with no atmosphere, and if your starter was hot your main would be cold or vice versa. The menu was repetitive and certainly not the taste of Italy we were expecting. We loved the area around the lake. The hotel staff were helpful. Would we visit again, no this was not the family, authentic taste of Italy we were expecting.
