Hotel Garden

A family-run three-star hotel overlooking the bay at Malcesine with a lake-view pool, sauna, whirlpool and breakfast terrace.

Why people love it

• Franco and his family. Owner Franco is named in many 2026 reviews as friendly and helpful. A June 2026 guest said he goes out of his way, and a May 2026 guest praised the customer service.
• Pool and spa. Guests mention a lake-view infinity pool, a sauna and a whirlpool that are spotlessly clean and well kept.
• Breakfast. Breakfast is described as delicious and varied, with a lake view from the breakfast area.
• Value and dogs. A May 2026 guest highlights free parking and no extra charge for a dog. A June 2026 guest calls it a quiet, peaceful place at a reasonable price.
• Families. An April 2026 couple stayed with a 6-month-old baby and called it a perfect stay.

The worst thing guests say

Every review since September 2025 is 5 stars. Older stayers raised a few issues: run-down rooms (2020), no balcony awnings (2023) and ants in a suite (2019). Nothing similar appears in the 2026 reviews.

Insider tips

• Ask Franco for tips on excursions around the lake.
• E-bikes can be rented at the hotel.
• Dogs are accepted without an extra charge, according to a May 2026 guest.
