I recently spent 3 nights here with a friend. We wanted to visit Verona but decided to stay by the lake and travel in by train. The hotel is lovely, small and very tastefully decorated. It is 5 minutes walk from the lake and 20 mins from the railway station. The staff were friendly and helpful. The buffet breakfast was... More

We stayed here for 3 nights (May 4 -7th, 13) Hotel staff were exceptional, very helpful and pleasant. We ate in the Hotel restaurant one evening, the food was fantastic and reasonable priced.

Our room was rather small but adequate, with a well appointed bathroom. The standard of cleanliness was... More
