Beautiful, simple and modern hotel

Reviewed By cathdonnelly

Really enjoyed our time in this hotel. We had a beautiful room overlooking the lake with a nice balcony. The room was fresh and modern. The pool was small but perfectly adequate. The breakfast was very good- we could get it sent to our room at no extra charge which was a really nice perk as it meant we could have breakfast on the balcony. Bar drinks were reasonably priced. Every member of staff we met were extremely friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend

Truly excellent experience

Reviewed By martynrj

Location very good on the lakeside away from the centre so less busy but close enough for convenience. Staff super friendly, very professional and helpful. Rooms are modern, bright, functional and comfortable. Room was meticulously serviced every day. Breakfast buffet was very good, quality food, healthy options well presented. Breakfast space was covered but outside mainly and very pleasant. Bar staff super friendly and professional at reasonable prices. We did not use the restaurant for dinner but would be confident it would be very good also. Price paid translates into good value. We had to cancel the last two years due to Covid restrictions but the hotel honoured the prepaid value for some of our party that did the prepay in 2020. Summary: very satisfied, excellent experience and would definitely return.

Reviewed By Jenjoe78

The hotel was a perfect stay for our family. Every single member of staff went out of their way to ensure that we were happy and catered for. The ladies serving breakfast were very attentive and made sure we were happy every morning. They made a fuss of Willow our daughter and she loved it :) The location was perfect, we used the ferry and visited Sirmione, and other locations on the lake. We hired bikes from the hotel and explored lots!!!!

Memorable stay with stunning views

Reviewed By SW46_72

Would highly recommend this hotel. It was our first trip to Italy and Lake Garda and the hotel made this a memorable stay and will definitely return here. Staff were so helpful with the booking (book terrace balcony rooms direct with hotel as not available through agent sites) and requests in lead up to holiday. Also so helpful in restaurant recommendations/ordering taxis. We arrived by train and easy 10 min downhill walk into town. The lake-front rooms have stunning views (stayed on 4th floor). Requested a kettle. Room had a good sized fridge, hair dryer and toiletries, comfy bed, safe (just a deposit needed). Lovely, varied continental breakfast and again really lovely staff. The hotel is just a 2 min walk from the ferry/bus stops nearby. Also close to many restaurants (we also enjoyed some take away pizzas on our terrace over looking the lake!). There is also a supermarket 10 mins away which is handy for drinks for your terrace/fridge). The town itself is in a good position - easy transport from Verona (where we flew into and spent 1st night) and ferries to see other towns around the lake. Also a few beaches to have a nice swim from. Thanks everyone at Hotel Vittorio for a wonderful stay

Lovely Hotel

Reviewed By Sandy_Bags1811

I stayed here with some friends last week and throughly enjoyed my stay. The rooms were throughly cleaned every day with fresh towels. Plenty of choice at breakfast but it did become monotonous by the end of a week as there were no variations. The location is between Desenzano centre and Sirmione. So we walked which takes about an hour, got the bus and sometimes a taxi. We did struggle to get a taxi back from Desenzano one night but no problems from Sirmione. The staff were all lovely and I would recommend this hotel.
