after all the negative comments on trip advisor I was apprehensive about going to this hotel. I travelled with my mum and her friend on what was their first foreign trip for many years. Some people must be impossible to please if they found anything lacking at the Grand! All the staff were warm friendly - couldn't do enough to... more

Ok hotel, From what we heard from other guests we seemed to get one of the better rooms, which was very clean & comfortable. In particular the reception & bar staff were very friendly & helpful. However the food in the restaurant can only be described as terrible. If you are looking for a taste of italy do not eat... more

We recently travelled with the Travel Department to Lake Garda and stayed in the Grand Hotel Liberty. While it is graded a four star it is not the same as a four star would be here in Ireland. We had a wonderful holiday. Hotel was very convenient location, food was good, very clean and comfortable. Staff were extremely friendly and... more

I'll start with the room we were first allocated. It was dark with a mangy carpet and the bathroom was full of cracked tiles and hair from the previous occupant. After complaining we were given another room which was cleaner and brighter. There is no tea/coffee making facility in the room which I would expect with a 4* hotel. The... more

I would recommend this place only to those who are living in a past world, who enjoy staying in a hotel which is overpriced, noisy, desperately in need of renovation, full of house rules and where the breakfast is just simply terrible. When I was there, it was full of british pensioners, I could not help feeling that they had... more

Just returned from holiday in this hotel (September 2009). We have visited Riva before but not stayed at the Grand Hotel Liberty. We will be going back there again. The hotel is centrally positioned but still quiet and very comfortable. Attentive staff, high standards of cleanliness. Super outdoor pool and wonderful spa facility including indoor pool with jacuzzis. Nothing was... more

I stayed in this hotel in August. The common areas of this hotel are very grand but the bedrooms are very old fashioned. On arival the first bedroom I got was dark and dismal which looked on to a building site. It had three beds even though we only needed two and this added to the clutter. I complained to... more

We booked a 5 night stay through the Travel Department(IRL) on a B&B basis. We up-graded to a room with terrace. We were allocated a room in a fabulous position on the first floor. The decor retained many original features respecting the character of this hotel built in 1906 which we enjoyed. The room was clean and perfectly acceptable, our... more
