Simply the best!
Booked fairly late with First Choice. Hotel is two minutes stroll from a beautiful view of the lake. Every night there was entertainment and everyone felt welcome; both old and young. Food was varied and there was always plenty of it. The staff accommodated your needs from outrageously early breakfast to sitting out and being entertained until after midnight. Rooms were clean and plasant with air con for the hot nights. The manager made a point of getting to know the guests and greeting them. Many of the people we met were returners (16 years, 10 years etc.) the figures speak for themselves. For convenience, location and friendliness you couldn't find a nicer place.

Home from Home
Upon arrival we were greeted with a smile and the sun. Off to a great start. Simone then showed us to our room with chat of football for me and shops for my wife. It took 1 hour for us to feel at home. The children instantly befriended the hotel managers children and so set the pattern for two weeks. Relaxing pool area with Simone serving up entertaining chat and cold beers. Great walks. Fantastic views only minutes away from the hotel. So sad to leave that we instantly re-booked and we will be back at pool side on 22nd July 2006 beer in hand, friendly smiles from all and yes of course Simone and his many stories. Oh and the people we met last time will be there too. Can't wait!

Great friendly hotel
We booked through First Choice and hadn't been to Lake Garda before. This is a great hotel. It is family owned and run with helpful and usually friendly staff. They provide entertainment every night which is fun for all the family. The pool is adequate but the sunbeds tend to get 'reserved' in the morning which can be annoying. The food is very nice and the rooms are clean and well serviced. It is also ideally placed for Garda town and lakeside. Gard itself is a lovely place with a good choice of bars and restaurants to suit all budgets and tastes. The locals are very friendly and do appreciate the effort made with Itallian.
