8.5/10 on 903 reviews
The Grand Hotel Gardone, inaugurated in 1884, is the oldest hotel and a symbol of the Belle Époque on Lake Garda, managed by the Mizzaro family for three generations. Situated in a privileged lakefront position in Gardone Riviera, it combines the charm of its glorious history with modern comforts, offering a classic luxury experience with breathtaking views of the Benaco.
Known for having hosted prominent figures such as British Prime Minister Winston Churchill (to whom the Winnie's Bar is dedicated), Nobel Prize winner Paul Heyse, and astronaut Valentina Tereskova, the hotel also boasts a strong connection with Gabriele D'Annunzio, who ironically called it the 'branch office of the Vittoriale' (located a short distance away). One of the hotel's prestigious Junior Suites is dedicated to the illustrious poet.
The hotel features 167 rooms and junior suites, many with balconies and lake views. The property offers a wide range of high-quality services, including: a private beach, a heated outdoor pool, a cantilevered sun terrace over the water, and a private jetty with boat mooring capabilities. For wellness, a SPA area with a Turkish bath and sauna is available.
The gastronomic offer is managed by the Grand Hotel Gardone Restaurant, with local and international cuisine proposals, and the à la carte restaurant Il Giardino dei Limoni, located directly on the lake. The magnificent Grand Ballroom makes the hotel a reference location for ceremonies, gala dinners, and receptions.
