If you get a room with a balchony you will have a great view over the harbour. At night time three are plenty of mosquitos. So much er didnt want to sit outside. More

My wife and I arrived by ferry from Riva and stayed at Hotel Piroscafo, which was easy to find, just a few minutes walk. Alberto, the hotel owner, checked us in and was very polite. The room was small, but quiet and comfortable and had a terrace with a nice view of boats moored in a small inlet. Breakfast offered... More

We were very well looked after in this small, family run, hotel. Our double room had a small balcony which overlooked the harbour as well as having a view of Lake Garda. The staff were always helpful: we asked for more pillows, pots of hot water (for tea) advice on travel to the airport, and all was provided. The breakfast... More

This is a small, clean hotel right at the very picturesque old harbor in Desenzano. We took a harbor view room and were astonished that there was no noise to speak of. We paid 95 Euro (for 2 persons) with a good breakfast buffet and parking included. Parking is secure and 300 meters from the hotel. You can unload your... More

Desenzano is a town which is perfect if you would like to visit the lake. The hotels are notably cheaper than neighbouring sirmione but it is so easy to get around by boat. The hotel is in a lovely area just by the harbour and just minutes away from the garda boat - this makes it a perfect location if... More

On arrival we were taken to a lift which took us to the 1st floor. We then followed the receptionist down several corridors to a flight of stairs and were told that our room was on the 3rd floor, there was no lift and we would have to carry our heavy bags up 2 flights of stairs.We were not impressed...

This is a hotel in an amazing location, right on the old harbour. I expected noise as a result of its location, but I hardly slept in 2 weeks. As a single traveller, you almost always get a bad room, despite paying a supplement. Room 6 overlooks an alley which is used for parking motorbikes and scooters, It is a... More

location on edge of the old harbour was stunning.The hotel was spotlessly clean and the continental breakfast was more than adequate. The lady at reception during the evening was very pleasant and helpful. Pity about the ladies toilet in the dining room being out of action for almost a week. More

Our first time to Lake Garda and we'll be back. Hotel Piroscafo is an ideally situated, friendly family owned hotel. Breakfast overlooking the old harbour was delightful. Bed and pillow a little hard for us so sleep wasn't as good as it would have been otherwise. That aside a very comfortable stay and we'd bhappily return. A good value for... More
