A perfectly lovely and a quiet retreat! Driving to the designated parking area inside the old city walls was a bit of a challenge with a large number of pedestrians here for New Year's holiday, but once at the hotel we didn't want to leave anyway! Very walkable to restaurants, attractions, shops. Most comfortable and relaxed we have been during our 2 week trip across northern Italia. 😀

Great family run hotel. Excellent location a few mins walk into Sirmione. Really good breakfast in the beautiful courtyard. The sunbeds on the jetty with direct access to the lake really makes the hotel standout against other options. Would definitely stay again if back to Sirmione.

We wanted to come to Lake Garda for our honeymoon as it looks absolutely beautiful! We was not disappointed. The area is amazing and we are so glad we went. The hotel was alright. First night we had a normal room which from pictures we thought would be lovely but it wasn’t up to scratch! The shower over flowed into the bedroom when used. The room we also had only had one charge point, very weird. The balcony’s with the normal rooms are not great they need a bit of TLC. So being our honeymoon we made the decision to upgrade to one of suites, which was an extra €40 a night. But with that €40 it is worth it. The shower doesn’t leak into the room. We had not one but two plugs! The balcony’s were cleaner and had a small view of the lake which was nice. The staff when asked for anything during the day was so nice and helped us with anything we needed. In the evening the staff was not the best. We was treated a little like we was a big inconvenience and was made to feel bad if we needed anything. Trust me with this place they don’t like to give yah toilet paper so we had to ask a few times for them 😂 The bar is nice but only open 12-6. They don’t take cash and every gets charged to your room so make sure to keep track of that which I did and we wasn’t over charged anything which is good. Overall it was good but if you can afford it I’d spend and extra €50 a night else where or spend it on the suites at this place because they are worth it to be fair.

It’s o.k.

Location was fantastic but hotel was very dated especially our room. It was clean though. The parking is off site and tricky to find and it has to be said, the owner (male) was not helpful when I said that my boyfriend was having trouble locating it. In fact, he snapped “it’s behind the church” in a rude manner. He also snapped that check out is not until 8am and we should have read that in our rooms (we needed to leave at 7:30am for a tour). The bill was already paid so it wasn’t an issue. He just made us feel unwelcome to be honest. The anircon in the room worked but the decor felt like a time warp from 1991 and they didn’t provide bottled water nor was the bar open late to get water which is a bit of a shock on our first night there during a heatwave. Other than that, the rest of the staff were nice in the hotel and location is great for walking into the town for dinner. It was safe also.

No air conditioning not even fans in the hotel communal areas makes anywhere outside of our hotel room unusable in 35 degree heat. Beds are rock hard like sleeping on concrete. Basic room is tiny with a view onto a wall. Staff not willing to even let us check in until 1pm after arriving on an early flight. Had to change our hotel after one night. Horrible attitude and unfriendly staff. Felt unwelcomed. Would not recommend. Extremely basic small hotel. Shame because location is great. Would not go to the lake from their jetty felt unclean. Total waste of money and a stressful start to our holiday. Stayed at Hotel Continental next doors completely different league of hotel was outstanding.

Excellent 1 week stay at hotel serenella. Old fashioned style (in a good way - lovely old couches and antique furniture), lovely staff. Small pool area but also has lovely pier onto the lake with sunbeds and shady area. Quiet but only a few mins walk to the busy parts of sirmione. No issue ordering breakfast ahead of time as its easy to change what you want or change the time the day before - or choose once and leave it for the whole stay - not the hassle some people say it is. Breakfast was lovely and the poolside bar served food and drinks up to 6.30. Would definitely stay again.

The lake access is the winner for this area

Pros: - The lake access via the hotels own private area/jetty is fantastic. There are only around 10 sun beds though, but we got a spot every time we went down. - You can take drinks / pay for delivery of drinks and food over to the jetty. - All the staff were super friendly and helpful. - We didn’t have the breakfast, but it looked amazing and good value for the amount and quality of food you got. - It’s around a 10 min walk (max.) from the ferry. You can get this direct from Desenzano and other local towns - it’s very affordable per person, and much better than taking the bus from the main part of Sirmione. It’s a long walk from the main town of Sirmione (we did this from the hotel down to the local supermarket and it was almost an hour). - Very affordable bar and tourist tax compared to other parts of Italy. - great value for what you got in this area. Cons: - We paid for the no balcony room and got a pretty tired, small room over looking the hotel car park. The shower was a little broken, and the soap dispenser fallen off the wall. - The bed was very hard and pillows not great, so we didn’t sleep all that well.
