We stayed in a double room with a small balcony on the second floor with a superb lake view and air conditioning which was essential as it was 31degrees when were there in September.We were impressed with the help given by the owner and staff regarding local resturants and using the boats on the lake for visiting other places like Garda and Bardolina. (Especially having an umbrella held over us when we got out of the car one day when there was a shower from the car park). Its a good 20mins walk into the main part of Simione which was very busy during the peak times.
We ate in the pizzeria in the next building on the corner with a terrace overlooking the lake a couple of times which was good value for money.
The hotel breakfast was delicious and the service was very efficient you could also have a coffee on the terrace overlooking the lake.
We would recommend this hotel and would stay again next time we are in the area.

We stayed for 2 nights at hotel Ca' Serena, Room 105.
Claudio, the owner and his lovely staff (including Monica) were very warm, friendly and helpful during our stay. They gave us a map and recommendation what to do and where to eat which turned out to be wonderful suggestions. (A nice place to eat is 2 minutes by walk - Il Malibu - great Pizza, carpaccio and Caprese salad)

We could not ask for a better location in Sirmione. The room was nice and clean, the bed was comfortable and we had a HUGE balcony with an amazing lake view.

The breakfast was reach and tasty.

Overall, the price (which was fair compared to other options we had) was well worth it, and we can highly recommend this hotel.

My Husband and I stayed at Ca'Serena for 5 nights before we carried on to Sicily. I have to agree with all of the excellent reviews on here, the service and atmosphere at the hotel is fantastic. We loved the family run feel, even the owners children help out at breakfast and a very cute little boy brought us our eggs! Monica who works 2pm-11pm was so helpful and nice, and her English is superb! We walked into Sirmione a few times but to be honest we preferred the bars and restaurants at the other end of the town as you walk left out of the hotel. We found some great little bars and one Pizzeria in particular was excellent! The name I have forgotten but it was next the the Eurobar place on the left. Not a fancy place but the food was superb and excellent value. There were 4 great bars on the same stretch of road all the way up until the junction at the top, and a supermarket too so everything was very handy. We found that area much less touristy and busy, and as a couple on our own with no children yet, we love to find cosy bars to have a few drinks in. We hired the hotel bikes which are great value at 7.50 Euros for a whole day. Dont expect any gears or great breaks but that made it all the more fun, I have not ridden a bike like that for years! We cycled to Desenzano which was lovely and a pretty easy ride. The Owner was able to show us on a map the easy route where there is practically a padestrian path all the way, so you dont have to worry too much about the traffic. I cannot compliment this hotel or the whole of Garda enough! We hired a speed boat from outside the Hotel for a day which was about 220 Euros for the day but totally worth it!! a day I will never forget. As we had a car we also drove around the whole lake. Limone and Garda are stunning, so is Riva. It is amazing to see the change in the geography as you go further up the lake. Anyway I am waffling on now, please mail me if you want any more tips! Lake Garda is the most stunning place we have been and this Hotel is an excellent base to stay, Thanks to Monica and al the staff! Hannah & Darren

We spent 3 nights at this hotel and it was wonderful! We had a very nice family room on the ground floor which had a view of the lake and plenty of space. The hotel is located on the lake and there is a public park/beach where you can lay your beach towel or rent a chair and go swimming. It was about a 10 minute walk into Columbare and 30 minutes to walk into the historical center of Sirmione. The breakfast was nice with meat, cheese, yogurt, cereal and eggs. The hotel was clean and the staff was extremely friendly. I would recommend this hotel in a heartbeat and we plan on returning!
