Desenzano is the best place to be, it is close to the highway, and away from the traffic areas like Salo and Pischeria. There are a short drive away. The hotel has a decent selection for the breakfast bar if you are not looking for eggs and pancakes. The gym is a huge room with 4 pieces of equipment and... More

The advantage of being out of town is that there is less road noise and parking is easy, but the port, ferry terminal and town centre are only a short 10 minute or so walk away. Very good position for touring towns around the lake itself and for Mantua, Cremona and Verona and a bit further to Vincenza and Padua.... More

We only had 5 days to holiday and chose the Oliveto in Desenzano on lake garda through inghams. The hotel looks a bit tired from the outside and is not what i would describe as a 4 star (having stayed in 4 star hotels in spain) but i think it's just a bit old fashioned. It is spotlessly clean and... More

This was the fifth year in a row that we have spent our summer holiday in Italy and the Oliveto was our best hotel yet.

We stayed here for 3 nights..Really I couldnt complain about the hotel at all the rooms were very large and had a good balcony facing the lake. The back rooms would be a bit dull I think as they faced the pool side of the hotel. The beds were comfy and it was clean and tidy the room had a... More

We have been to Lake Garda several times, and this hotel proved to be the most relaxing, and most enjoyable hotel that we have stayed at. Prior to this year we have paid short visits to Desenzano, sailing down from the other resorts that we have stayed in. Desenzano proved to be a very interesting resort, and must recommend a... More

Very nice hotel less then 10 minutes walk from the centre of Desenzano. The room was clean and spotless. We had a balcony overviewing the swimming pool which we had the pleasure to enjoy for the whole week end. I would definitely recommend the hotel both for business as well as for leisure. More
