“Tranqulility - sept 210”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 December 2011

There really is little I can say that hasn't already been said about this lovely hotel.

The rooms were clean , airy and spacious. The view from balcony over lake, stunning.

Staff very efficient & helpful.

Outside pool area lovely as is terraced sun area by lake.

Indoor pool / wellness area is so relaxing , used 3 late afternoons of our stay to chill out after trips before evening meal.

Some slight niggles for us - the cuisine took a bit of getting used to, it was easy to order something off the menu that wasn't what you thought , we ended up with raw beef & fish on one occasion , not my cup of tea really. Though the portions were small, by the time dessert was finished we felt comfortably satisfied.
Dogs allowed in hotel / restaraunt ! ( saw a couple in during breakfast )
4* and no dress code during evening meals , we were there to celebrate our silver wedding anniversary & I felt it would be nice to dress up a bit for dinner, but unfortunately many didn't make any effort at all ( even shorts allowed :( )

That said it wouldn't stop us from visiting again if we had the cash to spare ;

Room Tip: Lake View :)

“Would definitely stay again.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 July 2011

Stayed here for 3 nights during a trip around Europe. When we approached the hotel, we were a bit disappointed. It looks like a slightly shabby office block. We were also a bit surprised that although it overlooks the lake, there is a road and a car park between the lake and the hotel. This is not obvious from the hotel website.

Once inside the hotel, we were very pleasantly surprised. It is very modern and well equipped. The reception staff were very helpful, and our room was excellent.

Good breakfast, although the first morning the service was pretty chaotic. On days two and three the restaurant manager was on duty. What an improvement!!

There is a tunnel under the road from reception to the private (pebble) beach.

Free parking and Wifi.

As this hotel is about 2km from the town of Desenzano, I believe that the hotel operates a shuttle bus, although we never used it. Public transport is also available.

Make sure you book a room with a lake view.

If you like a modern hotel with all the facilities, we would definitely recommend it.

“Beautiful, friendly, well resourced.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 April 2011

people found this review helpful

The staff are helpful and patient with English speaking guests. The roof terrace is well worth a trip as are the many swimming pools. Room was very comfortable and the view of the lake worth every penny. You will need a car to get around, as the hotel is a few miles from Desenzano town centre. There is no business centre so if you want to check in for your homeward flight, take a laptop and use the wi-fi reception area.

Room Tip: Pay extra and reserve a lake view room.

I've just come back from Italy. I've been there many times but this is the first time I've stayed in Desenzano. The lake is beautiful and I enjoyed my holiday even more because I stayed in this wonderful hotel. It was really relaxing . The hotel is lovely, the rooms very big and confortable, the food delicious. The staff was very frindly and efficient . I've never been in susc a beautiful spa, everything was very clean.
