I booked this as a luxury treat during a holiday with multiple stops and hotels, and it didn't disappoint. I booked a balcony lake view room, and was very pleased to get a room with a huge balcony area with sun loungers and a table and chairs looking towards Lake Garda. The room itself was spacious and well-equipped - the kettle was particularly appreciated! We didn't use the spa facilities, but it was a lovely hotel all round.
We loved staying here! Hotel is in the center of the lakefront just across from ferry yet well soundproofed with windows closed. Fabulous view from our balcony! Staff were warm and very helpful. Large room and bathroom were kept spotless and A/C kept room climate perfect! Breakfast was great too!

The location of the property is amazing. However, the hotel is dated and in need of renovations. The shower in our room was so outdated.
Average stay, spacious room, tiny bathroom, comfortable bed.
Safety deposit box didn’t work
The bed of the sofa bed was made when I arrived, eventhough I was traveling solo, I asked for it to be folded and it never happened.
Unpleasant smell in their lobby.
They offer transportation to the train station, which is great
We loved the location of the hotel - just on beautiful view and right in the middle of everything. We rented e-bikes and traveled to Sirmione and to the beach. We also used the Wellness center and were surprised how lovely it was.
The breakfast was plentiful and delicious. The staff at reception, the breakfast room, and the cafe in the evening were so friendly and helpful.
We really appreciated the dinner recommendation to La Columba - it was outstanding!
Finally, we were grateful that the hotel offers complementary rides to the train station- walking down to the hotel as ok but going back up would have been so hard!
We highly recommend this hotel!
Hotel with excellent location, service was very special to our needs. We loved the private terrace facing the lake and would definitely return to the same hotel
We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Mayer & Splendid.
The staff was incredibly welcoming and even allowed us to check in early, which was greatly appreciated after a long day of travel. Throughout our stay, the service was consistently top-notch. Everyone was friendly, helpful, and genuinely seemed to care about making our visit enjoyable.
The breakfast each morning was fantastic, with a great selection and a wonderful start to the day.
We were especially grateful for the assistance the team provided with transportation and helping us arrange our trip to the train station. Their local knowledge and willingness to help made our travels much easier and stress-free.
What stood out most was how the team made us feel. We felt less like hotel guests and more like family. That level of hospitality is rare and made our time in Desenzano even more memorable.
We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Lake Garda.
Lovely hotel and location. All staff helpful, breakfast excellent. Opposite harbour to get the boat around the lake. Food options good in the area and not expensive.

Staff was very helpful in anything you asked them. They picked us up and dropped us off at the train station with no issues. Breakfast was very good as well. The hotel is 200 years old, and you can tell in some areas, but for the most part the rooms were plenty for us for a couple of days. Will stay there again.

Overall a good hotel, great spa, dated decor
Very lovely front desk staff and the spa was great. Although the views from the room were beautiful and location was great, unfortunately the decor in the rooms was incredibly dated and they didn't offer any room service.
Stayed in the spacious junior suite with a beautiful view of the lake. We had a little balcony. We enjoyed the spa facilities - clean and comfortable. The location was perfect for walking to restaurants and taking the boat to Sirmione. Good staff.
