    Pros +

    • The hotel is set in beautiful gardens with olive trees and has a great outdoor pool. There is a German style beer garden a short walk from the hotel serving roast meats and wurst, which is good if you like that sort of thing.
    • Very nice and helpful staff, nice breakfast Pretty garden around the hotel and nice views from the poolCleanEnough parking place
    • The location, behind the main road and walking distance to the lake and restaurants. Everything was very new and the room Was small but the bed was very comfortable. Nice swimming pool

    Cons -

    • We booked an economy room which was compact and functional, as you'd expect. However the room was in need of updating - the shades on the bedside lamps were tatty and torn, the bathroom fittings are due for replacement and the extractor fan was so noisy it woke the other occupant up if you went to the loo in the night.Other than the beer garden, there aren't many restaurants nearby. There are a couple in other hotels and the only other one we found was booked solid for the whole evening.
    • Very tiny shower in a big bathroom Only curtains in the room were transparent - uncomfortable in the eveningRooms a bit dated
    • The main thing is staff upon check in that looked like they did not want to be there and we did not feel welcome. No smile or just a welcome greeting rather than a serious face looking at us as if we were a bother. No offer to help with suitcase (even if we had said no) It does not take much to create a good first impression, just some courtesy and good manners, and they completely failed. Breakfast was ok, nothing remarkable. That step next to the bathroom could be dangerous. There is no lift (just in case someone would need it) There was no toilet paper hold fixed to the wall so we had to have the toilet paper on the floor (quite weird)

    A small, nice hotel located a bit away from the city center. We liked nature around hotel and a swimming pool with a view for mounties. Room was quite small but comfortable. Breakfast was Ok.

    9LanaPosted on: 8-7-2024

    Very nice property, clean and spacey. Great staff

    8LiamPosted on: 8-1-2024

    The pool was large with a jacuzzi and plenty of sun loungers.The room was spacious and clean. The view of the hills and gardens were beautiful.

    The lack of aircon made it very difficult to sleep during the night. We were provided with a fan however due to high temperatures this was not enough. This may not be a problem during the cooler months.

    7SaraPosted on: 7-7-2024

    It was really cute and not too far from the lake. The staff were friendly and the location spot on. Our room had a balcony.

    I didn’t like the fact that there was a little bit of negligence and lack of cleanliness. For example, we weren’t given proper bedsheets.

    7RobertaPosted on: 6-6-2024

    The property is stunning in the middle of olive trees fields with swimming pool and garden. Breakfast is delicious with a variety of choices (continental breakfast).

    I would give 8 as a score but I gave 7 because our room was totally different from the pictures here in booking. Very old style room without hairdryer and extra pillows and we had 2 single beds but no one requested for it.

    10RichardPosted on: 5-31-2024

    How beautiful is this place. 4km outside Malcesine. Outside space/garden is to die for. Swimming pool was amazing. We were lucky to have some sun & chilled out by the pool. Breakfast was very good as well. 40 minute walk along lake to Malcesine.We will be returning one day!!

    Basic room with no balcony but that may have been what i booked??, no coffee making facilities but didn't disappoint.

    10JackiePosted on: 5-16-2024

    Lovely hotel - very peaceful and quiet. Breakfast was great and staff really friendly. Great pool!

    All good.

    10AnaPosted on: 4-19-2024

    Beautiful ambient, very clean, the stuff was nice, the breakfast was good, there was always someone around and kept the area clean.

    Everything was fine. Good value for the price.

    8JanetPosted on: 10-6-2023

    Very clean spotless accommodation. Extremely helpful staff at reception helping us track lost backpack.Great pool area and close walking distance to a cute little beach to swim.Super breakfast with everything you could want. Comfortable beds. Nice area away from busy tourist area and one road up from busy lakeside road. Great little restaurant walking distance on same road. Easy access to fantastic bike path along lake. ( Something you must do!)Good value for money.

    A little noisy from cars passing if rooms in front of hotel but it stopped about 10pm..

    6EmmaPosted on: 9-20-2023

    We stayed for 2 nights while exploring Malcesine. Location was about 30 min walk from the center or 5 mins to the bus stop.Rooms were clean, balcony had a great view of the cliff side and the breakfast was nice.

    The room was a little outdated and there didnt seem to have much room in the bathroom to put your toiletries down, it all felt a little claustrophobic.

    10RainiePosted on: 9-13-2023

    Great views, situated amongst olive groves. Amazing place for families with children to keep entertained. It was extremely hot so the pool was welcoming. And the restaurant spec stubs up the road was so good we went back a second time.

    The rooms were very hot, no fan or ac

    9MartynasPosted on: 9-13-2023

    Nice room. Good breakfast. Big parking space. But above all - it’s the olive trees garden that adds amazing vibe to this place.

    The only minus I could think of is no A/C.

    8GergelyPosted on: 9-7-2023

    Nice and friendly staff, delicious breakfast, comfy bed, free parking

    9UwePosted on: 7-24-2023

    View to the lake, friendly staff and the garden with pool

    8TimPosted on: 7-15-2023

    Lovely grounds and comfortable bed. Good breakfast and friendly owner/staff.

    To get this to a rating of 10 san Carlo only need to add a room fridge and fan.
