Hotel Gardenia & Villa Charme Adults Friendly 4Star Service

We had the most relaxing and lovely holiday in Hotel Gardenia with two kids. Room was really nice and clean with amazing view! Staff of the hotel was truly amazing, so friendly and helpful! ❤️ Nice breakfast and lunch. We will definetely come back!

We have just returned from a week at this hotel. We visited 9 years ago following a recommendation and the hotel was as good, if not better, than we remembered, The staff are exceptional. They go above and beyond to ensure that you are happy and well looked after. Special thanks to Nicola and Marta but all the staff are friendly and welcoming. The bedrooms are spotless and smell amazing. All the communal and pool areas are well maintained and very clean. There are 2 swimming pools with plenty of sun beds and towels are provided. You can order drinks and snacks from and to your sunbed ! Breakfast is fabulous with a great continental selection including a delicious Bircher muesli. You can order eggs anyway and omelettes too. The location of the hotel is great. A 10-15 minute walk and you’re in Bardolino. There are an excellent choice of restaurants in the town and we found them to be excellent value compared to the UK ! You can catch ferries to other locations on the lake from the marina. We hired a boat which allowed us to explore the lake in a different way. We had a wonderful stay at the Hotel Gardenia and we will definitely be back !

Just back from 7 nights at this fabulous small friendly hotel . The hotel was immaculately clean and all the staff were so friendly and helpful and always happy. Our room 501 was at the top of the building and had a private balcony with 2 sun beds and a high table and 2 chairs where we could enjoy a pre dinner glass of wine . The walk into the town of Bardolino was enjoyable along the path by the lake but do be aware of the bikes . Some are electric and you can’t hear them coming . We visited many of the local towns by bus , foot and by ferry and our personal favourite was Sirmone . Tip . If you want to get the fast ferry back from here then purchase your tickets in Sirmone early . We got to the ticket booth about 45 mins before the fast ferry was due and were told the tickets had all been sold and we needed to wait for the slower ferry 1hr later. Luckily we asked one more time just as the fast ferry arrived and were told we could get on but that was pure luck and lots weren’t so lucky . Prices for food and drink are much of a muchness in most towns , approx 3.5 -4 euros for a glass of local wine , which is lovely, and around 10-14 euros for a pizza , cheaper if just a plain one . Lots of the bars bought complimentary crisps and nuts when you ordered drinks , some resteraunts added a cover charge of approx 2euros a head but no one expects a tip . The breakfast in the hotel was good, eggs could be cooked to orderand speciality coffees were available . Lovely small pool and always sun beds and towels for sun beds provided. Would highly recommend this hotel for its location , staff and cleanliness . We hope to return and explore more of this wonderful part of Italy .

The staff were exceptionally warm and welcoming, taking time during check-in to thoughtfully share insights about the region, including key towns, transportation options, and exciting activities to explore. The room was outstanding, with a supremely comfortable bed that ensured a restful night’s sleep. The shower, while compact even by European standards, was functional. Breakfast was a daily delight, with their ham and cheese eggs being a standout favorite. The hotel’s location is perfect, just a short stroll from Bardolino, and ample parking added to the convenience.

Just had 1 week holiday in this hotel, and everything was excellent and friendly. Breakfast was fantastic, and it was a great selection. Staff were very attentive and eager to help. Everything was of no trouble. Rooms are very spacious, and good lighting. Cleaning was excellent and consistently done every day. Will visit again , when in the area.

A wee gem! Impeccably trained staff who were all so friendly and welcoming. We stayed in both the Villa Charme and the hotel itself and the rooms were immaculate. We loved the pool area at the villa and appreciated the poolside drinks service. An easy walk to catch the bus to other lakeside towns and conveniently to the airport in Verona. Hope to return one day!
