01 · In a sentence

Hotel Villa del Sogno in Gardone Riviera, open AprilNovember.

Built in 1901, Hotel Villa del Sogno began as a belle époque mansion overlooking Lake Garda before its transformation into a luxury lakeside hotel.

The property retains its historic architectural character while offering modern hospitality amenities across its hilltop location in Gardone Riviera.

With a 4.7/5 Google rating, this venue delivers both heritage and contemporary comfort for destination celebrations.

Amazing staff and outstanding food. Florin/ Angelo and the team are brilliant. Views are stunning with a classic and authentic Italian feel. Very much old school in all its values. Highly recommend but you need a car as there is no shuttle and the walk to local amenities it’s not pleasant ( main busy road). Def return for a chill.
