This is a lovely traditional Italian hotel. The staff is great, incredibly helpful and nice. The pool and landscaping are beautiful. Excellent breakfast! Only minor complaint: The showers could be improved - we had 2 different rooms and neither had a shower that functioned really well. We plan to return to Villa Sofia.

Very exquisite older property. The grounds are lovely. The breakfast is done very well. Had a bit of a challenge with the air conditioning. It was either freezing or off- couldn't find any happy medium. Beautiful old building.

I felt like we booked a room I literally in paradise. All the staff were welcoming and kind. Margarita went above and beyond to make our stay memorable and a wonderful memory that we will never forget. The breakfast was fabulous, too. I really can not say enough about this enchanting property in Gardone Riviera!

Beautiful setting on quiet street very close to the village above and Salò below. Lovely breakfast inside, in sunroom or on the terrace. Wide selection of hot and cold items plus espresso, cappucino and cafe Americano. Fresh fruits and juices. Wonderful pool to relax after a day of sightseeing. Great choice in Lake Garda.

There is no restaurant in this hotel but plenty within easy walking distance provided you are able-bodied and fit. They can also book you in to their partner hotel's dining room if you have a car for a short drive down the hill

It was excellent. Just one thing that needs to be done and that is to get a rail put in swimming pool. You could easily slip.

It has been a very nice couple of days! The room was spacious and quiet, only the showerhead was furred up and caused flooding. Breakfast was very nice and sufficient. Hotel staff was very nice and helpful at all times. The entire Hotel is very well maintained and neat. Our dog was also very welcome. Location is brilliant, well situated to walk up the hill for lunche and to the village centre for dinner. All in all, we'll definitely return.

Authentic Italian hotel, helpful, friendly staff
A warm friendly welcome from all the staff, breakfast staff were particularly helpful and quick to bring your choice of hot drink each day. Breakfast was plentiful, fresh and yummy. Fresh croissants, pain au chocolate, pastries, scrambled eggs, sausage, cheese, ham, fruit, cereal, juice. Our room was on the second floor, a corner room. The decor was lemon and blue, typically Italian and felt authentic. A lovely balcony, we were amongst the tree tops which did reduce the light in the room and we did get traffic noise as we were on the corner of the building near to the road. It wasn't too distracting though. Bed was comfortable and the bathroom huge. I am not too fond of a shower curtain and would have preferred a screen. The roof terrace and hot tub are a good addition. We didn't get the chance to use the outdoor pool due to the weather changing. We did visit the sister hotel to use their spa facilities which was a bonus on a wet day. The building is set in its own grounds and only a short walk from many restaurants, cafes and bars. Highly recommended.
