We recently stayed in this hotel with our parents, on their recommendation as they previously stayed in the Hotel Sole 3 years ago. This hotel lives up to everything we were told it would be. The location cannot really be surpassed as it is right on the lake side and within a 2-5 minute easy stroll to the jetty to... more

The Hotel is in a wonderful location, right at the lakeside in Piazza 3 Novembre. It has a lovely restaurant looking out over the lake and is a 2 minute walk to the ferry service that takes you to the various towns around the lake. In the evenings in the Piazza there was a concert on Sunday night and various... more

ideally situated,we were hoping for a view of lake but instead had a balcony overlooking Piazza Novembre which was great as we had a great view of evening entertainers which included a Bee Gees tribute band on one evening.There is a Co-op not far from hotel which was ideal to get some wine etc [kept cool in fridge in room]... more

We spent two nights at the Hotel Sole and found it a great place to base ourselves for the sights of Riva del Garda We had a balcony room facing the lake on the 2nd floor, which was comfortable rather than luxurious, and had a wonderful view out across the lake. The weather was perfect, so we made use of... more

We have just returned from a one week stay at this hotel booked through Thomas Cook. We had half board accommodation. Whilst we could not fault the location of the hotel, cleanliness of the room and an excelent bathroom with clean towels, when we needed them, I am sorry to say that the quality of the food in the restaurant... more

As expressed in earlier posts, the Hotel Sole definitely doesn't merit a 4 star rating, the rooms are nothing spectacular but are just about spacious enough and are clean with fresh towels and linen provided every day. We were lucky enough to be provided with a room overlooking the Piazza 3rd Novembre, and while we missed having a balcony (which... more

We stay in Riva twice a year on business. We have stayed at several different hotels in Riva over the years and the Hotel Sole is certainly one of the better ones. The hotel is typically 'Italian tourist resort' in that the rooms are fairly basic, but I would say that it is much quieter at night here than many... more

We stayed in this hotel from 28 December 2008 until 3 January 2009 as part of a package tour with Leger Holidays. The hotel is very well situated and we had a room onthe front overlooking the lake and the harbour. Outside within a short walk were all the amenities which Riva has to offer. The rooms were kept clean... more

Parking - the hotel spots 300m from the hotel were full (or maybe don't exist), we ended up in the underground garage (10e/day, very modern, long walk to the hotel). The hotel did provide a porter to fetch the luggage. On checkout, now knowing the lay of the land we were able to pull the car up to the front... more
