.
The room had a large bed, large balcony and there was a safe and fridge in the wardrobe. The bathroom was modern and all was very clean.
The staff were extremely friendly, and the people who manned the desk all spoke good English and were able to advise us on local places to go.
Locally there were a couple of wonderful restaurants serving fantastic food for reasonable prices, only a five minute walk from the hotel.
However, the hotel is situated slightly out of the town of Desenzano. This was not too much of an issue for us as we had a car and were not there in high season so could park easily in the town, but would be a 20 min brisk walk without.
On the plus side, Lake Garda was only across the road from the hotel and if you prefer peace and quiet the hotel certainly offers that.
In summary I would stay here again if visiting Desenzano ...
Advantages: Plenty of trips and sites to see ! Disadvantages: None
Sorry i go so carried way with the rest of the resort i forgot to mention the hotel, so i hope edited review helps.
We stayed in Limone in August 2006, We Didn't know what to expect as i book it on Last mintue.com , which cost £299 half board for 1 week and our hotel was allocated on arrival.
When we arrive at Verona Airport where a representive meet us at the airport and told us where we were staying at what coach to get, the transfer to the hotel was quite long but the scenery and the very chatty travel rep keep us amused. once we arrived at the hotel Europa we where greet by the friendly staff who explained meals times etc.
The hotel was a three star hotel, our room was small but the right size for us two very cleaning and cool, so there was no need for air con. as our room was at the back of the hotel we didnt have much ...
Advantages: tranquil and picturesque. Disadvantages: Erratic bus service
Torri de Beneco
We booked this as the second resort in a dual centre holiday from Inghams Lakes and Mountains. Wading through the brochures there are many resorts around Lake Garda and very little information to help one choose between them so we were a little unsure what to expect when we arrived in Torri de Benaco on a brilliant hot sunny afternoon in July 2006.
We were immediately impressed as we wandered around the cobbled streets and strolled on the promenade of this pretty harbour town. After the hustle and bustle of Venice the tranquillity was welcome, I was on holiday, it was time to unwind.
Situation
Torri de Benaco is situated half way along the Eastern shores of Lake Garda. Like all the resorts around Garda it is reached by the main road that runs North / South along the lake. From the road there is little to see ...
