Lake Garda or Gardasee if German - important, as this is a favourite resort for Germans and Italian families. We were the only Brits and glad of it - No football t-shirts at breakfast, thank god ! This is only a family-owned pension, but a large one and run on precision and ruthless organsiation by Iris, who is amazing and such a lovely person. Liselle runs breakfast and always makes sure you have enough coffee ! IF you want a good, clean hotel, with is away from the main villages on the lake , this is it. Buses and a short walk will get you further into the masses, but nice to be a little further out. GOOD TO KNOW - The hotel issues a simple menu with meals they are cooking that night for €15 p.person - great to know you have a meal ready after a day out, or just say no thnaks and go else where - However the quality is excellent and needed after a good walk. I took my mother who loved it - Kids may need more to do, but if you are going out, no problem. The hotel is always booked, as it is so popular, so get in early ! AND yes, the Germans really do have a sense of humour - we found them great company.
