The location is a further out than we expected, we knew it wasn’t near the lake, but there was nothing near by , you definitely need a car … Fridge in room , and a microwave in the hall for everyone to use .

Top Desenzano del Garda Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riviera

8/10 Good

"The staff were excellent, the breakfast was very good, and the location on Lake Garda is fantastic. However, the hotel itself is a little tired and could benefit from some investment. There isn't really a proper lounge area, with the seating more like a corridor area, and there was a slight smell coming from the drains in our bathroom. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, particularly because of the excellent staff, breakfast and beautiful location, but improved amenities and some refurbishment would make a big difference."
