An awesome property with extraordinary staff. Highly recommended

A stunning property in immaculate grounds with views far and wide over Lake Garda. Walking distance from Malcesine and the perfect choice to relax and unwind.

Absolutely stunning views and accomodations!

This is literally the most beautiful place in the world, this hotel has one of the best views of the lake and mountains beyond. The staff were amazing and food was great. The only issue we had was that we booked through Hotels.com because they offered a transfer fee of 22Euros per person each way, when booking the transfer the hotel and Hotel.com didn’t know what we where talking about and blamed each other. We are still in discussion with them. The transfer fee from Verona airport was 240 euros both ways, a big difference!!

I selected this hotel (sort of randomly) out of hundreds of choices at Lake Garda... because it met my needs, plus the art and interiors intrigued me. I had no idea what a jewel this place would be... if I had, we would have sayed extra days! From your arrival you know this is going to be a good experience -- the staff is excellent, the service flawless, the setting beautiful, and the art collection is clearly a great passion and makes it like staying in a small museum (I regret not understanding enough Italian to truly absorb all the information available about the art.) The grounds, amenities, and the views of Lake Garda are so relaxing and inviting that we never left the property until the afternoon of the second day and we are usually ones to be out exploring right away! I haven't even touched on the food... there is a world-renowned restaurant on Lake Garda that I was interested in trying... BUT the brilliant dinner menu at the hotel was so good we never managed to make it over to the other place! They do a beautiful breakfast buffet service too... but the dinners are magical and on one of our nights there, was accompanied by live piano music filtering in from the stone terrace. I was hesitant to even post a review of this little jewel because I'm afraid once word gets out that I won't be able to get in there on my next trip to italy -- but I felt that I needed to share. I've stayed a lot of nice places in this world.... BUT this one is a really special!

Wow... What a fantastic hotel! Set in beautiful gardens with amazing views of the lake, excellent facilities and fantastic staff, this really is a place to make wonderful memories. The continental breakfast was always well stocked and the staff very friendly and attentive and happily conversed in multiple languages. Likewise, dinner was impeccably served from a different menu each night during our short stay (5 nights). The room (ours was a "junior suite") was a good size, spotlessly clean (and cleaned each day), modern and had it's own balcony with a quite breathtaking view. For those wishing to venture into town, it's only a 10 minute leisurely stroll along the banks of the lake. This path is accessed via a short walk along a fairly busy road, and quite a steep, short footpath Note: As with the vast majority of properties in this area, access to the hotel is via a fairly steep path / private road, so it's worth baring in mind if you have mobility requirements (parking IS available at the upper level).

This property is fabulous. It is an elegant villa with beautiful views of the lake. The service was impeccable. Breakfast and dinner at the hotel were excellent. Overall, a relaxing stay at a charming hotel. Can’t wait to visit again.

What a great hotel! Amazing staff, food, drinks and rooms! The grounds are beautiful and the views - absolutely to die for!

Perfection. Beautuful hotel with amazing views. Hotel has great staff and fantastic food and wine. It’s nested on a little hill and blessed with incredible vistas. It was wonderful waking up to the lake view and dining with the lake view in evening.

This might just be the most beautiful and most perfect hotel in the world. The set up is breathtaking and the spectacular view is just as amazing. Very quiet and very romantic and mature. I almost didn’t want to go out and experience the area because of how beautiful the hotel was. Perfection.

Great location amazing hotel.Food ,bar, breakfast amazing beautiful pool and grounds

The hotel is beautiful in a stunning location with fabulous views. We had a room with a balcony and lake view but the room and bathroom were very small and basic, we were surprised given the high standards elsewhere.

The hotel was beyond expectations and the staff were all really friendly especially the receptionist who I think was Valentina, she made sure all our transfers and needs were catered for. The whole area is stunning with plenty to do and see. Easy acces to many towns via ferry all reasonably priced. I would thoroughly recommend both hotel and Malcesine

Could not fault the hotel or the staff. Had an amazing stay. Highly recommend as a relaxing break.

The rooms are very basic, but the garden, pool and outdoor areas are really nice. Wonderful view too.

The location, view and hotel was amazing. Would recommended it anytime.

My wife and I stayed here for a week, 14th – 20th September - it and was our third visit, 1997, 2010 and 2019. The quality and high standard set by the owner/manager has been maintained over all those years and is a credit to him and to the staff that interpret it. I have run a four-star hotel so understand the challenges and know when I find a good one! This hotel is just perfect and in a stunning location with amazing lake views from the hotel and the beautifully designed garden - at nights the grounds are beautiful lit creating a magical atmosphere, certainly one of the best we’ve ever visited and one of our favourites! A beautiful place in which you can have every attention! Everything is here with no need to move far unless you want to, the perfect place to relax and reflect. The staff are friendly polite and expert taking a pride in all they do, nothing was too much trouble, to mention any one of them by name would be unfair to the others – some we did not see but felt their presence with their attention to detail from the cleaner to the chef. All the meals were presented with style and creativity in the delightful restaurant or on the terrace as you choose, managed expertly by the Restaurant Manager and his staff. The rooms were spacious and comfortable with all that you would expect. Its difficult to drag yourself away at the end of your holiday which assures a return again before too long.

Beautiful location and amazing spa / hotel

Beautiful hotel with great staff. Would highly recommend.

What an amazing hotel! I was here on my Honeymoon and my wife and I absolutely loved this place! The check in was flawless, the grounds are in unbelievable shape, and the staff are incredibly nice and welcoming. The location is fantastic and is only a short walk down to the water if you prefer to swim in the lake or take a stroll to some local restaurants and shops. The infinity pool is beautiful and beyond refreshing to swim in! The views from our room were gorgeous. I would highly recommend staying here to anyone considering visiting this area! The only small issue that I had was the restaurant. My wife and I generally travel with our carry-on luggage, so we didnt have any room to pack pants since it was the middle of summer. I was told I wasn't able to dine in their restaurant (despite being relatively empty). Eventually with some friendly persistence, they allowed us to stay with my shorts on (they were dressy, not gym shorts) but put us in the corner well away from everyone else. Not that big of a deal, but bring pants to avoid any issues dining here. What an amazing place!

Beautiful hotel with brilliant staff, they couldn’t be willing to help more. The room was spotless and had towels and flip flops for the pool area, which was also lovely and clean. Bicycles free to hire from the hotel which made exploring the lake side routes even better. Breakfast is lovely with fresh fruit and juices and the option to sit outside on the terrace overlooking the lake. A short lakeside walk into the town with plenty of restaurants to pick from and easy boat trips to other towns on the lake.

Wow! A difficult one to be critical. Everything about the hotel would rate excellent. Just one or two minor points to consider. The location of the place is idyllic nestling slightly on a hill with magnificent views. However the walk into town is around 20 minutes. If you follow the waterfront it’s magnificent, however having done the journey many times in the week it was sometimes a pain to come back up the hill, especially after a meal in town late at night. The other minor point is only a personal opinion. A lot of the guests we spoke found the four course evening meal magnificent. We were not half board and only stayed a couple of nights for a meal as the dining and food is very much geared to fine dining and sometimes we craved for one or two plainer options as we are quite plain eaters! As I say a personal point only. I can highly recommend this relaxing hotel nestled in scenic splendour!

We loved this hotel! The views from the balcony and pool are out of this world. Breakfast was lovely and watching the sunset over the mountains on the other side of the lake will be something ill never forget.

Nice hotel, spectacular views of the lake, from the room, pool, lawn and patio.

This place is all about the location.. which cant be beat. Its peaceful, beautiful, and has ample parking.The negatives. The rooms were very tired. The curtains in our room were full of holes and the bathtub needed repairs.We paid for the dinner service, and felt like we had gone back in time 50 years in terms of the food and the service. My wife was ignored the entire time and all questions were directed at me in some strange misogynistic manner. The food was what I would describe as faux-fancy. Sounded impressive but looked and tasted like it had been cooked by a school canteen. The breakfast wasnt much better.Its annoying when you prepay for dinner, and your choice is limited to a few items, and they charge you for things like water.... or extremely overpriced wine!The room corridors are dark, and the lights are all set on sensor.. but they trigger too late and too bright! So if you are going to your room at night, be prepared to fall down a step and then be blinded by floodlights.There is guy at reception who seemed to be watching everyone closely, you couldnt relax! The maid also ignored our do-not-disturb sign. annoying . We were expecting the beautiful red building in the pictures, but our room was in more of a basic beige rectangle. The walk to town is a pretty but hilly 15 minutes. be prepared for 100 difficult steps to walk to the beach. Most guests here were German, getting a lounger was difficult
