Subject: Lake Garda |
We went to Lago de Garda and enjoyed it a lot.
I will only mentioned our experience, by no means I am an expert , what
a know is that I liked the place we stayed and it was reasonable for
my standards.
We stayed at a Hotel called Torre di Garda, this hotel belongs to the
Radisson
SAS group. Normally we prefer smaller independent hotels but this place
had a lot of advantages for us..
It is located on a small hill on top of Garda, so the place has a great
view and is surrounded by trees , big pool, absolutely a very good buffet
breakfast, also has a restaurant on premises, you can choose to stay with
dinner or B&B, ( the food however is not 100% Italian, but rather a modified
Italian food cartered to the taste of tourists,)
plenty of free parking, it was lovely to walk around or simply to drive
to town in Garda ( 2 minutes drive), take ferries etc.
Also it is not far (10 minutes) from the autostrata and from there we
made several very nice one day trips to Verona, Vicenza,Mantova, Sirmione
and took a number of ferries from Garda .....
The plan including dinner is reasonably priced also the B&B,we chose this
last one because we liked more the food in the many restaurants and
pizzerias
down by the lake...you can find information in http://www.radisson.com
Their accommodations are like suites,( 1 bedroom +1 living room) with
a terrace, in the living room they have a little
fridge, and hot plate, micro, and iron board... The furniture is
Scandinavian
, nothing exciting but nice.
NOte: should you go there , their printed driving instructions are very
poorly explained
so ask for directions by phone.
