Pros +
- Clean room, the breakfast was excellent, offering a wide variety of choices, and the reception lady was very nice and helpful.
- Great view of lake from room and breakfast room. Convenient to city centro.
- Beautiful view from the room and front property overall, very clean, family run property, great location with walking path to centre .
Cons -
- There is no elevator, which can be challenging for people with heavy luggage. The shower was a little too small.
- Two story climb from parking lot to reception office. Then room on 2nd floor up from there ( there is a small elevator from reception level to room).
- Bedding comfort could be improved, needs some modern upgrades overall. Yappy dog owned by staff was disruptive as anytime a new person arrived the dog barked loudly. Very average breakfast.

The location of the hotel was perfect only about a 10 minute walk into the town along the water. We had a beautiful view from our room and a nice breakfast that was included. The pool was refreshing and has a great view.
The shower was a little small but was good enough.
Location and breakfast was nice
The honesty My wife accidently left her bag of jewellery in the room on the side when leaving- we assume the cleaners swiped it On getting home we realised the bag wasn’t in her travel bag – We both worked the Monday and didn’t unpack till the Tuesday morning. We instantly reached out and contacted the hotel immediately and they informed us it wasn’t there, they said they looked themselves and also spoke with the cleaner. The issue I have is It was only ever with us in that room – her bag was with her the whole journey home, so there’s no other explanation of it going missing other than her leaving it. She recalls when packing her items up putting it down as she took a call and then not picking it backup, so either the Cleaner is a thief or the owner is covering for them, either way it should have been handed in. When we spoke to the hotel – (we left on the Sunday, called on the Tuesday) we were informed other guests had also been in the room 2 sets of guests, I find that strange on its own that somebody checked in on a Sunday and only stayed till the Monday, then another guest had checked in again on the Monday – so it could have gone missing – really didn’t buy it. As the owner of the hotel I would be questioning my cleaning staff? Unless the hotel owners were the cleaners? Either way some ones been dis honest and stolen items not belong to them! It was £1000’s of monies worth and we have a very upset wife - Massively disappointed
The rooms were nice. Great view.
I didn't like getting barked at by the receptionist dog upon arrival. There were plenty of guest dogs who behaved better than hers. The man helping out at breakfast was rolling his eyes when he had to clean up after a baby spilled a drink. Terrible attitude. Also neither the receptionist offered any recommendations nor asked if we needed help with anything.
The breakfest was very nice,The staff are helpful and nice
A bit of a walk from the center
We had a room with a balcony overlooking the lake and it was lovely. Waking up every morning to the view of the mountains surrounding the lake was breathtaking. In the evening we could sit and enjoy a drink looking out toward the lights from the town and the town across the lake. Location was great, walk into town was very close and was paved and flat. Buffet breakfast was varied and plentiful. Owners and staff were very friendly.
Would have been nice to have the use of an elevator to bring up our suitcases to our room on the second floor.
The reception lady was super friendly and the room is super comfortable. Our room was right towards the lake and mountain. We could enjoy the senic views anytime. Super nice experience.
Excellent breakfast. Beautiful view of the lake and sunset
Parking is tight but ok
We loved th location, it was a 15 walk along the river to the Old Town daily. After eating in lovely restaurants in the old town it was a magical walk back along the river at night. The view of the river from the hotel was so picturesque, it was awesome. The room was very big, bright and had comfy mattresses. It was spotless, with lovely matching furniture. The breakfast menu was great, it had such a variety of fresh food all you could eat and drink to set you up for the day. The staff were brilliant, so friendly, helpful and professional. One receptionist lady had a lovely friendly gentle dog that I loved spoiling every day, I loved it. Overall, after many long searches on Google for a Hotel that was walking distance from the Old Town was by far the best one we found. It was so romantic to walk by the river daily and was a good gentle exercise for us that suited our age at 60 years old. We have magical memories of Lake Garda and its amazing mountain range with a ten minute walk to the peninsula to go up to Mound Baldo or the bus station which is next door to Mount Baldo where we booked Coach trips to take us to the Dolomites mountains, Verona, Milan and Venice for the day which was seamless travel for us with a brilliant coach driver and Tour lady to attend to all our needs. I would highly recommend this hotel, it made our holiday perfect. It was quiet, we were able to have peacefully nights sleep with no noise disturbance which is exactly what we needed to relax and unwind.You will not be disappointed if you stay here, it made our holiday fab. We had parking at the hotel which always had a space free day or night, it was totally safe for us to leave our car all day whilst on bus tours. Enjoy your stay as much as we did.
Views, breakfast
ventilation was noisy at the bathroom, also had to keep the windows closed at night because the nearby road.
It was very clean and room was spacious! Good accessibility to town (about 10min walk) and lovely staff
One day we approached the front door and a dog was barking and growling at us which was one of the hotel staffs dog, it made us a bit cautious about approaching, we tried to call out but no one came. The same dog was walking around at breakfast the next day, it seemed friendly but if we had been more afraid of dogs I wouldn’t have liked it.
In a great location a short walk from the main town. Clean, modern. Big room with large balcony right in front of the lake.
Location - it's located right on the lake which means there's a fabulous view from the pool, breakfast room and balcony. It's just a 15min walk from the town centre.Staff are warm and friendly.The overall atmosphere is laid back, relaxed and calm. Breakfast is simple but offers lots of variety to cater for different diets and tastes.
There was only one socket in the room which the fridge was plugged into. I had to plug it out when I needed to charge my phone. As it was the only socket in the room, I could only charge or use one electrical device at a time which wasn't ideal. The only other socket was in the bathroom which the hairdryer was plugged into. This isn't a massive deal but it would have been nice to have known in advance so as to bring an extension socket.
The location is lovely, with a very nice pool plus a little beach area opposite where you can swim in the lake.The sisters who own it are really friendly and helpfulVery good breakfast. Clean, and comfortable beds.Off road parking
I have to mention the steps!There is a steep slope from the road to the property, then about 40 steps to the reception area, and the same again to our room on the second floorI hate to be negative about this lovely hotel but the steps did impact our holiday as we are older and not as fit as we used to be. Just something to be aware of
We had a warm welcome at Casa Marinella, it's a nice hotel and run from a passionate owner (and her dog). The family room isn't too spacious and a bit dark....but has a large balcony so kids can play outside and when the weather is warm it's perfect that way. Breakfast has everything you need and to have breakfast on the terrace with a beautiful view on the lake....that's a perfect start in the day. The location is ideal for visiting Malcesine...it's a 15min walk away alongside the lake. Our favorite activity to walk to Malcesine for dinner in the evening or trips too the Monte Baldo or Limone. And we need to mention the pool, you can have a swim and look on the lake....that was phenomenal.
Every up- has also a downside. The large balcony in front of the family room is also the access route to the other family room. So you need to take into account, if you like having the curtains open....people passing by have a full view into the room.
Great location, view and service
Nothing! Was very happy with our stay
Everything! Loved stayed here. Such a lovely location and a short walk along the water to the town. The dog (Perla) was a definite highlight. Such a beautiful girl, making it feel very homely and friendly. Would definitely stay here again, it had a beautiful view of the lake.
We book the room last minute and what a fortune! Clean , comfortable, the best view on the lake, beautiful staff, great breakfast , and great price . Will come back for sure
Have to be aware of the stairs but it’s not a problem for us
