Wow! A mini paradise that is close to everything you need, the hotel itself and grounds are wonderfully peaceful and idyllic. Staff are exceptional and we loved the themed days - the fruit at the tropical breakfast was a personal favourite. 11/10

Great service, attentive staff. A/C was a bit faint and stationed by the door, felt more like a unit. A smidge dated, but great otherwise. Didn’t like that the bathroom had a double sided mirror by the window, which seemed odd, so I covered it. The flusher for the toilet was odd and a bit hard to suppress. Great location walkable to town!

Amazing staff were super accommodating when we had an issue with our room, went out of their way to help resolve the issue. The rooftop with jacuzzi is incredible, has beautiful views of lake Garda. Loved the stay, rooms aren’t sound proof but was able to sleep well with ear plugs

The hotel & staff were excellent. Hotel is well positioned for train and ferry links with a god variety of eating options within a short walk. Down side, the hotel is situated on a fairly busy road which can be noisy during the day. Overall a good hotel.

I stayed for two nights here as part of a week long trip through Italy. The town itself is beautiful and charming. The hotel was very nice, with large rooms, big bathrooms, and a nice private balcony. The breakfast spread was great and there are multiple areas you can sit in, including outside. I happened to be there when it was terrible weather - multiple days of rain and cooler than average weather. Therefore, I was unable to actually use any of the amenities. The pools and hot tub were not open. The rooftop terrace has an amazing view of the lake and surrounding mountains, however, I couldn’t enjoy it due to the weather. This is of course not the hotel’s fault but I was disappointed that I couldn’t enjoy the many amenities since they were a main reason that I chose this property. It is within reasonable walking distance of restaurants and stores and the train station is about a 20 minute walk. My one complaint is that there was a lot of street noise even with the windows closed. However, I enjoyed my stay and hope that I can return sometime to use the pools!

We stayed only two nights but we really enjoyed the location and style of a hotel. Great service and very nice people around. The room was comfortable and clean. Only disadvantages were weak internet connection in the room and the elevator which should be renewed immediately.

We had a great stay at Piccola Vela, the hotel was excellent; we loved the property, the room, the breakfast. We had a great time cycling with the hotel´s bikes to Sirmione for lunch, and the staff was very accomodating to help us have a great time during out stay.

Great staff. If you like good breakfast, you have plenty to choose from bacon and eggs to sweet bakery and various fresh fruits. The noise from the street and lack of lake view from lower lewels a minus, but the nice walking way beside the lake starts close to the hotel.

This hotel is lovely. They have two pools with many chairs. We didn't have an issue getting seats. I don't think they were full, but based on the number, it seems likely that people could secure a chair for a few hours when they wanted. The rooms were nice - spacious. The bathrooms were nice (shower is on small side). The breakfast was part continental style with eggs/bacon to order. Overall, nice breakfast. My only complain was the bed was very firm.

It was tone of the best hotels I have stayed in whilst in Italy. The best and most comfortable bed. The view I had of Lake Garda exceeded my expectations. The breakfast buffet was abundant and fresh with a great variety of savoury and sweet . The waiting staff were friendly, always smiling and very respectful. This beautiful boutique hotel is a must if you are visiting Lake Garda. It provides a5 star service.

Hotel was amazing! Top notch rooms with a comfortable bed and view of Lake Garda from my balcony. Perfect location right across the street from the lake. Breakfast and dinner was outstanding! Nino, one of the waiters, has been working there for 30 years and loves his job and is extremely good at it! Best service, hands down! Will be coming back here again!

Perfect location just five minute stroll into the town centre , bus and boat stations in the centre of town . Stunning setting , beautiful grounds , pool was perfect had it to ourselves quite often . The hotel was spotlessly clean , staff were very friendly and spoke many languages . Very informative too. We arrived at night and the staff arranged for a meal for us on the terrace . Beautiful view of the pool and lake and a very tasty meal . The hotel provides a beach bag and towels for the pool which is a lovely touch . Lovely rooftop area with stunning views of the lake , didn’t use the jacuzzi as the weather was too hot . The continental breakfast was very good . We will be back so much more to see and do . We loved our stay at Piccolo Vela .
