My wife is coeliac and requires a gluten free diet, we advised the hotel in advance and they catered superbly, exceeding all of our expectations. We chose the half board option but in addition there was complimentary coffee, iced tea and cakes available to all guests throughout the day. All of the staff are very friendly and accomodating, there was always someone available who spoke good English and nothing was a trouble to them.

Our bedroom had a small balcony facing Monte Isola and the lake, which added to the experience. Whilst the room did not have modern air conditioning it did have a large ceiling fan which was very efficient and kept us cool in the height of season. Both the interior and exterior of the hotel are very well maintained and beautiful, the pool is small with sufficient sunbeds.

The hotel is easily accessible by car from the main A4 autostrada, using main A roads up to Iseo town and then a lakeside road on which the hotel is situated. It is located within a ten minute walk of the ferry to Monte Isola and a twenty minute car journey into Iseo town; as the lake is small you can easily drive around the perimeter in a day, taking time to stop at points of interest along the way.

Staff is very friendly and welcoming - the atmosphere is between a b&b and a hotel. There are sweets and coffee / tea in the lounge all day, there are free bikes to move to the island or whereever esle (professional bikes in good condition). But Sale Marasino is not really a lake resort :-) so there is not that much to do - the trip to the island is really worth it though. We booked for 160 € a room incl diner and breakfast for 2 persons and the deal was overall very good. Would certainly recommend.

We stayed here whilst on a walking holiday and were very pleased with the hotel. We like staying at smaller properties that are unique & interesting and this fitted the bill nicely. We upgraded to a lake view room - but I don't think it was the same as other reviewers as ours only had a smallish window & we decided that the upgrade probably wasn't worth it. However, we were very happy with the room, all nicely decorated, clean etc.
We ate in the restaurant the first night which was very good if a bit expensive. The other night we wandered out to one of the local restaurants. Would definitely recommend it!

Just returned from a 7 night stay at the hotel.
There were 4 of us in our party ( 2 couples ) and none of us has a bad word for the hotel. Rooms overlooking the lake were large, clean and airey. Breakfast superb and relaxed. Staff extremely friendly, courteous and attentive. Fantastic swimming pool ideal for relaxing after a days walking.
Touches such as sweets on your pillows, all day tea/coffeee and cakes ( included at no extra cost ) made the experience so much better than staying in an International Corporate hotel.
Whiist there we would recommend a couple of days for exploring the island opposite. We also went on a guided historical tour (free) of the local town churches which is held every thursday morning.- this was excellent and an interpreter was even on hand.
In summary - if you get the chance stay here !!
