Hotel Monte Baldo e Villa Acquarone

We chose this hotel for the location: On the lake, to the west, between the picturesque villages up north and Sirmione to the south. The location was perfect but more than that, we were so pleasantly surprised by this gem of a hotel! We were welcomed like family. Those behind the front desk or working in the dining rooms were friendly, professional and so very knowledgable about where to go, how to get there and could communicate all of this information in Italien, French, English and German (maybe more?)! Our room was the cleanest ever, beautifully and simply decorated, very functional and lovely! We looked out on the lake from the third floor and it was perfect! We enjoyed a complete breakfast buffet every morning: pastries, breads/spreads, eggs, bacon, yogurts, cereal, fresh fruit, cheese, charcuterie, juices, and hot drinks ordered upon arrival. We did not have lunch or dinner at the hotel. The hotel is located about a five minute walk from the village center where there are shops, restaurants and gelato! If one walks 15 minutes up the hill, there is the incredible domaine/museum/houses of the Italien poet Gabriele D'Annunzio. This was suggested by our hosts and a fantastic morning activity! Though this hotel is a bit out of a village, that is what we liked best! It was wonderful to go back to this gorgeous oasis after a busy day of touring Lake Garda!

Staggeringly beautiful setting. Matched by elegant rooms and a gorgeous lakeside garden. Food in the restaurant is top class—with service to match. Altogether pretty faultless. This really is a magical place to stay—and it gets better every year

This was our fifth stay at the lovely Hotel Monte Baldo and as per usual everything was superb. We love the location, the view from our balcony overlooking the lake, the food and the excellent service given by all the charming staff. We plan to return next year.
