Overall one of the better 4stars hotels at lago di garda. The hotel isn't new but well maintained and ideally located in walking distance to both Sirmione and Desenzano. Outstanding breakfast!

The hotel was in a perfect location for Is coming from Milan and only a few minutes drive to Sirmione. We enjoyed our stay here and had a great dinner at the hotel restaurant. The staff was very helpful in offering child options and we all enjoyed a very nice meal. The spa and pool were also nice and great for our baby. Definitely recommend staying at this hotel - great location

We liked the excellent free wellbeing facilities. The staff were very friendly and courteous. the grounds and pool were very good. The reception desk were exceptionally helpful. Breakfast was very good with many choices. It is a bit far from Desenzano about 40mins walk, but the walk is by the lake, so nice.

Acquaviva

Great stay at Acquaviva. We got a nice room with lake view and Balcony. Staff was courteous and nice. Breakfast had a lot of options. Hotel is a 45 mins walk to downtown Desenzano (lake front walk with a great view) and 1:30 walk to Sirmione. We absolutely adored the tratoria del pescatore that is a few blocks away. Spa was great too, the only down thing is that there is no spa tub like advised and they force you to wear a swim cap

Excellent quality and value We have stayed here twice now the breakfast is fantastic, indoor pool and spa are lovely. Just wish the outside pool and sun loungers overlooking Lake Garda were open, the explanation I got was it was to early in the Season and they will open in May. For the British like myself the weather was ideal and at around 21/22 degrees the Outdoor spaces should have been open. Thanks a lovely stay otherwise 👍

Lovely hotel in a great location on Lake Garda.

Lovely hotel in a great location on the shores of Lake Garda. We had a comfortable two-night stay here with our toddler, and enjoyed the location and excellent breakfast. The bar is especially excellent at this hotel - not only is the range of drinks huge and varied (there's even a range of local beers, not just Heineken), but it's very reasonably priced. Quality hotel, I recommend it!
