The holiday didn't get off to a good start. The meet & greet was very poor.The large receptionist (so you do not get them confused) because there are two on duty, just showed us to our room and left with no explanation on anything. The other staff were so nice and helpful. The housemaid was exceptional. Although we did try... More

This hotel really lived up to expectations in terms of location, rooms, food and facilities. The staff were very efficient, friendly and able to communicate easily with their English, German and Italian guests. We were on half board basis and enjoyed all the variety of dishes on offer at dinner and it was a bonus not having to go out... More

Although we saw reviews that moaned about the short walk to the lake front, this is a BIG positive. Enjoy the buzz on the shore then retire to the peace and quiet up the hill. Its a well appointed hotel with good sized rooms and excellent breakfast. We also found the staff very friendly , contrary to other reviewers. The... More

A very impressive and friendly Hotel. Well managed and with excellent service. Superb location and fantastic swimming pool and associated facilities. Very well equipped rooms but the air conditioning struggled for a couple of nights as there was a heatwave when we stayed there. Basically cannot fault this hotel and would recommend to anyone but possibly best suited to the... More

We have just arrived back & the hotel was fabulous! There was 4 of us in our party & the inlaws we travelled with loved the hotel, they attended breakfast ( we are never up in time) & the gala dinner night & raved about the food & service. The only grumble the inlaws had was that the short walk... More

This is my 2nd time traveling from Canada to Garda. I specifically rerouted my travels to land through Garda on my way to France just to stay at The Villa Madrina. I personally think the place is magical. I find the location and hotel so relaxing. Villa Madrina is just a great place to wind down and relax. The view... More

Most of the upper floor rooms have a good view of the lake and a large shaded balcony, great when the weather is hot. The pool and garden... More

Spent 10 very relaxing days at the VM, which is a very good, family run hotel with a quiet and comfortable atmosphere. The staff are excellent, the rooms are quite large and well furnished (and fitted with shutters for a good nights sleep). The bathrooms are very good, with lots of towels, robes and slippers. The pool is excellent, with... More

We have recently enjoyed our third stay at this superb, friendly, family run hotel, one of our two favourites on Lake Garda. We spent 5 days here before moving on to our other favourite for a further 5 days. The Villa Madrina is situated in a quiet area at the northern end of Garda town, about 400 yards up a... More
