Perfect, peaceful stay in Malcesine
A perfect hotel in Malcesine! Large balcony with a stunning view of the castle and lake beyond. Bright, clean, spacious room. Helpful staff. Central location, but just enough removed as to feel peaceful. I would absolutely stay here again!

The staff here are lovely, friendly and helpful, the hotel is in the town so is ideal for those wanting just a very short stroll into the old town, Our room had just a stunning view of the castle and over the roofs of the old village and was worth the price alone. We had a nice balcony to look out on this view in the morning and evening and so really enjoyed this. The room was modern and clean with a nice bathroom.
Will definitely return when we get the chance as Malcesine is just a delight to see and explore with many nice shops, bars and restaurants.

Exceptional hotel! Great views of the lake and castle, juat a few minutes walk to Malcasine centre where there are lots of lovely shops and restaurants.
We had a beautuful room with a balcony. Large and comfortable room, tea and coffee, comfy bed, great shower and all spotlessly clean.
Breakfast was great with plenty of healthy choices. The staff were so helpful and friendly, couldnt do enough for you.
We also used the hotel bikes free of charge and cycled round to Riva. Be aware that there are lots of tunnels and you should wear hi viz. There is a fabulous bike/walking track around much of the lake.
The ferry is a great way to get across the lake.

Highly recommend this beautiful hotel!
We stayed between 10th-16th August 2024 and we were so happy we got to stay at this hotel when we booked last minute. We were lucky enough that the only room left was superior double (room 22, 3rd floor) and was blown away by the view from the balcony, the photos do not do it justice! The room was clean, spacious with plenty of storage and a comfy large bed. From the minute we arrived staff were friendly and helped us book a taxi to Verona. Breakfast was excellent with lots of choices. The cakes, real honeycomb and scrambled eggs were our favourite. We looked forward to sitting on the terrace overlooking the well kept gardens. We enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub and sun beds in the garden. The hotel itself was a perfect location for us to walk 30 seconds to a Despar shop, into the old town, to the cable car and a 3 min walk to the beach and port. We would highly recommend this hotel to anyone who would like a relaxing and luxury stay in Lake Garda.

Viihtyisä pieni hotelli Malcesinen parhaalla paikalla. Huone siisti, sängyt mukavat ja näköala huoneen parvekkeelta aivan upea. Aamupala maittava ja monipuolinen. Henkilökunta ystävällistä ja erityisesti respa erittäin avulias.

I det stora hela ett mysigt hotell med bra läge.
Hotellet i sig var väldigt fint och personalen var vänlig.
Men rummet vi hade låg inte bra till, det låg längst ner bakom receptionen i ett mörkt hörn med balkong över garaget och ljud ifrån matsalen och receptionen hördes väl in, fick lite känslan av att det egentligen var något form av personalrum.
Men i det stora hela så var hotellet fint läget bra och personalen vänlig
