Hotel Castello Lake Front

Three generations. Yes, grandfather purchased the property and the sons and their sons own and manage it now. This is what makes it so special. Yes, the location is spectacular, on the shore of Lake Garda right on the sidewalk that takes you down the shoreline or into the historic town and the Castello Scaligero. The rooms and suites are large, have lake views and are well equipped. The breakfast is the best we've had in all of Italy...even in 5-star hotels in major cities. Freshness, variety, custom preparations and the staff are remarkable. The onsite parking a few yards from the front door is a welcome amenity. But it's the warm and genuine welcome each time the Reception team greets you that makes this place special. This is a property that will remain among my top-five favorites and one to which I hope to return.

Returned to this hotel after an excellent experience a decade ago. This time round was even better! I booked the Grand View Living Suite and the view from its huge private terrace is simply breathtaking. The suite itself was large, spotlessly clean with a great walk-in power shower. Breakfast was also first rate, with a large range of options including freshly made omelettes and proper coffee. But perhaps best of all are the staff: welcoming, attentive and highly professional. If you’re planning on a trip to a Lake Garda look no further and book with confidence.

Had a fantastic 3 nights at this hotel. Staff were extremely friendly, beds were comfortable and everywhere was very clean. Great location right on the lake with amazing views from the restaurant. We had dinner there our first night and the waiters were great and the food was very special. The selection at breakfast was fantastic, with pancakes/waffles etc cooked fresh and a small selection of cooked items. The rooms were modern but the shower could do with some updating- still powerful and clean enough though. We used the jacuzzi which is free and a nice to warm up in after swimming in the lake. Up a short but steep hill to get to the town (which is gorgeous) so maybe not ideal for anyone with mobility issues. Would absolutely love to stay again.

Hotel Castello is a little piece of heaven on earth. It is absolutely perfect. There is nothing that could be improved. The hotel is perfectly located on the lake front, under the castle and 2 minute walk into the town. The views are stunning. The food is wonderful . The breakfast is amazing . There is an extensive and delicious selection of hot and cold food ,sweet and savoury, with freshly cooked options. The view from the breakfast room is beautiful. The restaurant is fantastic, overlooking the lake. There is a wide choice of food and wine at excellent prices on the menu. Every dish is delicious , using local ingredients and perfectly presented. The rooms are perfect, spotless, very comfortable and all with beautiful lake views and some with a view of the castle also. I have never seen such a high standard of cleanliness in any hotel. However it is the people on the team there that make this hotel exceptional. Everyone from frondesk, breakfast, housekeeping, restaurant and bar staff is always warm, welcoming and work hard to make your stay perfect. A big shout out to Paul , Jamal and Rafaello for looking after us so well in the bar and restaurant. Family Treccani should be very proud of the hotel they have created. We are already looking forward to returning.

To all the family & staff at Castello. Thank you for giving us the best honeymoon we could have ever wished for! From arrival to departure nothing was a problem. You treated us so well and we will be returning! I am certain the Castello Suites have the best views in Malcesine. Very short distance walk to the beautiful Lakeside, restaurants, spar, everything you need is close by. After eating many times in Al Bacio (the hotel restaurant) we understood why it is so highly rated in Malcesine, the views are breathtaking and the food was absolutely delicious, every time. We looked forward to getting up for the most amazing breakfast every morning. Followed by a stroll along the lakeside. Castello Hotel has a reason for sitting #1 spot, don’t think about it just book it. Bezmir at reception, thank you for all the laughs & the advice. See you next year! Shauna & Danny

From the moment we arrived at the wonderfully located Castello Hotel we were welcomed with a smile and made to feel we were valued as a guest. The rooms were very well equiped and spotlessly cleaned daily. The breakfast was fantastic with lots of fresh produce. A dream hotel in a dream location.
