Hotel Gardenia
al Lago is a cosy 3-star hotel in
Villa, a romantic little village administered by
Gargnano, the largest and most distinctive
municipality on the “Lemon
Riviera”.
The hotel sits right on the shores of Lake
Garda, with the mountain peaks of the Parco Alto
Garda Bresciano nature reserve as its backdrop.
The waters of the lake lap the edges of the
magnificent garden and surround the panoramic
lookout point in the dining room, and on the
opposite shore stands the majestic Monte Baldo
mountain range, which generously lays on the
most unforgettable displays of light and colour
at both sunrise and sunset.
Hotel Gardenia al Lago has a particular charm
and aura, not due to the opulence and richness
of its décor, but to its harmonious setting, the
elegance of its rooms, furnished with pieces
from the old house dating back to 1925, and to
the warm welcome given by the Arosio family, who
have owned and run the hotel personally for
three generations.

Tranquillity, comfort and elegance are the
keywords describing the 11 recently refurbished
bedrooms. Each one is unique, decorated in a
personal style using Nineteenth-Century or early
Twentieth-Century furniture from the Lombardy
region, and they all offer
independently-controlled air conditioning and
free broadband internet connection.
The period furniture and the warm, time-patinaed
materials create pleasant, cosy corners where
every detail has been carefully thought out, and
nothing is left to chance.
Six rooms have terraces or balconies looking
straight out over the lake, clustered above the
miniature inner garden, where the cool shade of
the Phoenix palm and the abundance of flowers in
the summertime combine to offer an oasis of
peace and tranquillity, just a moment’s walk
from the lively port square.
The other five rooms, whilst they may not offer
balconies and lake views, are equally elegant
and carefully decorated, and overlook the
picturesque, narrow main street. Opposite your
windows you will see the façades of the
surrounding houses, bedecked with glorious
bougainvilleas, the essential backdrop to life
in the ancient village of Villa di Gargnano.
The hotel has a private car park, but cannot
guarantee you a parking space during your stay.
Nor can they assign a space when reserving at
the hotel. It's first come, first served.
Equipment rentals and excursions
For your amusement, you can hire, in our Hotel,
kayaks and mountain bikes if you want to relax
in the blue of the lake or the greenery of the
hinterland. If you want to see the little towns
around the lake, just ask at reception: you can
book boat trips along the coast, stopping off at
little lakeside hamlets and the most important
buildings and locations on the lake, including
Bogliaco, Palazzo Bettoni, Villa, Gargnano,
Palazzo Feltrinelli, Villa Feltrinelli, San
Giacomo Church and the Santella dei Pescatori.
Golfers
Enjoy the unforgettable experience of playing on
a dream course in a wonderful natural setting.
Our hotel has a special agreement with
all the golf courses on Lake Garda, and
offers its guests discounts of up to 20% on
green fees. |
