Truly Memorable Experience

Fabulous family run hotel, faclities were excellent, every part of the hotel spotlessly clean. Lovely pool area always sun beds available. Hosts Roberto and Marissa were extremely friendly and helpful providing advice on places to visit and things to do made you feel welcome and valued. Even the family dog Arturo welcomed every guest as if they were a life long friend. Continental breakfast had excellent choice and you could eat as much or as little as you wanted. Plenty of parking spaces and you could hire bikes from the hotel. There were 2 super markets and a couple of small shops in the immediate vicinity and prices were good, bottles of decent wine for 4-5 euros.Beautiful walk along Lake Garda into Malcesine which took about 20 minutes interspersed with hotels and restauraunts and the smell of pine trees, heaven! Or you could get the tourist bus which was extremely reliable into the centre for 1 euro..brilliant service. Malcesine was wonderful, full of lovely restaurants some cheap and cheerful others more sophisticated but you got what you paid for which in our case was good food..special mention for the Gondolier, try the lamb chops..superb! Most bars , restaurants served really good wine for 10 euros a bottle , 2 euros a glass. Cable car well worth the trip but go early to avoid crowds and take good walking shoes and sun cream you will experience fantastic views of snow capped mountains quite surreal when its 30 degrees. Use the ferries to check out other resorts but although they are pretty, quaint, charming Limone, Sirmione and Lazise were our favourites, I think Malcesine is the best. Never been to the Italian Lakes before but will definitely return, definitely go back to the Benacus can't wait. If you don't enjoy yourself here you must be really hard to please.

Gute Lage und trotz Straße nicht laut. Wir hatten ein Zimmer mit Balkon hinten zum Berg und es war von der Lautstärke her okay. Man konnte abends gut auf dem Balkon sitzen. Betten waren bequem.Zimmer wurde ordentlich gereinigt. Supermarkt direkt gegenüber und zum See nur 3-5 Minuten zu Fuß. Man kann bequem die tolle Promenade bis in den Ort Malcesine laufen. Zirka 20 min Gehzeit vom Hotel. Das Personal und der Chef Roberto mit Frau waren sehr freundlich. Man wurde mit Handschlag begrüßt. Wirklich klasse und sehr herzlich. Das Frühstück ist super - selbstgemachtes Brot und sogar einen Gemüse Entsafter für Smoothies. Alles schmackhaft und gute Qualität. Der Pool ist auch sehr gut und gespflegt. Insgesamt ein tolles Hotel in guter Lage!

Det här hotellet är helt enkelt fantastiskt outstanding superbra :) Allt är perfekt. Hotellet är väldigt familjärt och det känns som att de som jobbar där tillhör samma familj. När till havet och inte till byn. Superbra parkeringsmöjligheter. Fantastiskt frukost och fin utsikt över gardasjön. Vi älskade hotellet och kommer att åka tillbaka hit nästa resa.
