We loved this hotel. The staff was wonderful. Everyone was happy and helpful and wanted us to enjoy ourselves. It was in a perfect location. Very close to the old city, but not loud or dirty. And the views of the mountains were great. We will come again. Ana, at the front desk, was especially helpful.

Fantastic hotel. I loved the decor, grounds, pool, staff, everything. I will be back here in a couple of years hopefully.

Great location, great restaurant, service and rooms are a bit old and unflexible

Pretty setting, pleasant staff. We were there in the off season, so everything seemed a little desolate. Hotel is in a lovely old building that has been renovated in dark glass-and-copper-mirror business hotel style. Garden is beautiful though.

This hotel is in need of some updating, but overall it is comfortable and has a clubby feel in the main living spaces. Our room overlooked the lake, but since it was on a lower floor, we really had to stand tall to see it over the rooftops. An old hot tub on our deck had been transformed into a large planter. Breakfast had a nice variety of options. Pretty grounds. Overall, a little threadbare but adequate.

Beautiful grounds and building very close to main square

The views and the outdoor and public areas of the hotel are top notch. The rooms are small but comfortable except for the bathroom. Shower is tiny, actually smaller than that, and hot water was problematic. Staff are great and the restaurant lived up to its 5 star rating!

Lovely staff. Great breakfast. Very convenient to shops, restaurants and lake. One of the rooms was quite dark and would be better if the decor was white and lighting brighter but other than that the hotel was great!

We loved Hotel Villa Miravalle. The staff were so lovely and friendly. The atmosphere was gentle and relaxed. And it is a short stroll down to the cafes and bars by the lake. The pool was immaculately clean and I loved swimming in it, looking up at the mountainside. We had a beautiful meal in the hotel restaurant one of the nights. The hotel breakfast buffet was terrific, even featuring a facility to boil your own eggs and I had a gorgeous latte from the coffee machine. (In other hotels we found the coffee pretty grim, so this was a welcome relief!) On arrival, we were delighted with the pool kit bag which was a lovely touch. Equally on leaving we were presented with beautiful cookie treats from the restaurant to eat on our journey to the airport. It was a very mellow stay and we didn't want to leave!

A perfectly furnished and cared for hotel. Two lovely helpful professional women on reception. And at breakfast nothing was too much trouble for the man and two women. I think the chef might have been a bit of a problem as I had an omelette one day but later I was met with polite excuses. They boiled eggs for me and asked how many minutes cooking I would like. We eat in the hotel one evening. We had to ask for a menu and when the red wine arrived it was so cold there was condensation on the bottle. The waiter said that it would warm up in a couple of seconds. We insisted and he brought another bottle. We usually don't bother to "taste" wine but expect to be asked, he just filled both glasses. We suggest that they have two refrigerators, one normal and one for red wine at the correct temperature. We liked the grass area separate from the pool but it was a mat of weeds, a little bit of care would put that right. Like a lot of hotels it lacked immediately available snacks and drinks. People who don't want lunch often like something in the afternoon and don't want to have to ask. Similarly, a waiter should occasionally walk round the pool and the grassed area. People don't want to spend a fortune on dinner but usually fancy a drink during the day. And of course, no "teas made" in room. These are tiny criticisms as it certainly merits five stars. We would recommend.

The Hotel was recommended to us and we were delighted from the start it is full of a traditional Italian charm whilst up to date with modern facilities, contemporary interiors, the mature gardens make lovely setting for breakfast.

Everything here was well done and enjoyable. The only thing I could suggest would be to improve the morning espresso.

We had a wonderful week in Riva the Hotel and the resort exceeded ever expectation the hotel was so peaceful and relaxed as was the resort, just watch out for the mountain bikes! The choice of bars and restaurants within a 5 minute walk was fantastic and there was choices. The Hotel is ideally located to stroll to the lake front, ferries and shops. Without doubt my new favourite place.

Extremely welcoming and friendly staff. The rooms are a bit outdatet, but spacious and with a lovely view. The restaurant was excellent! I would stay there over and over again!

Lovely friendly hotel with lots of charm. Only downside was our room was above the kitchen so very noisy during the night.
