Lake Front Hotel Brenzone

This hotel is an Oasis in the paradise of Lake Garda. From the minute you arrive, the smile and warm welcome is in abundance. We arrived after a long day travelling and were greeted with a pleasant smile. When you arrive, you'll receive a personal tour of the hotel. All of the amenities and layout of the hotel are explained before you are shown to your room. We stayed in a city room with french balcony. The room was spacious enough for a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids), it was beautifully decorated in keeping with the style of the hotel. The bathroom was clean and bright and the beds were very comfortable. It was very hot in Lake Garda but the constant air con inside the room was a welcomed touch. The pool is small and simple but when you have a Lake to swim in at the door, it is great just for a cool down in the heat. It's not crowded and the staff are attentive for drinks or snacks when needed. The gardens are beautiful. For the kids, there were stand up paddleboards, a canoe, bicycles and some electric scooters (€6.50/hour). The pool is never too busy and there are ample sunbeds available, which you can take out onto the Lake if you like. There are also some beanbags on the Lake to relax. A few minutes walk to the right of the hotel to a very small stone/shingle beach where you can walk into a shallow part of the shore. The food at the hotel for breakfast was amazing. Service was impeccable and the hotel even realised it was my birthday on the first day, a special table, some cake with candles and a happy birthday message was a very personal touch, thank you to all the staff! We even treated ourselves to a small glass of the breakfast prosecco to celebrate. The real honeycomb honey was also a very nice touch. Food was fresh, homemade and of a very high standard. Location wise, I'd recommend a car. There are a few restaurants in walking distance but it was nice to be able to drive the short distance to Maclesine, Riva Del Garda, Peschiera Del Garda and we took the boat to Limone which was amazing! The hotel will provide a keyfob to secure private parking and explain where it is when you check in. Congrats to the owners and staff of Lake Front Hotel, simply superb! We hope to see you again.

We would like to thank you for all! Our family has the best vacation at your location. You are very good and special people and we are glad to have met you. We will definitely come back and we want to see you again. We are sorry that the hotel was fully occupied and that we could not book more days. Best regards from our family !

So very disappointed with our stay at Hotel Brenzone. We initially booked for an overnight stay however my partner was ‘seduced’ into taking a larger room for two nights due to a cancellation. I really wish he had spoken to me first because although our initial room was only adequate it was much better than the overpriced larger room. The hotel comprises of three separate houses which makes the flow difficult and is sorely in need of an upgrade. Our larger terraced room was furnished traditionally which is understandable given the aged and type of property however the quality of the furniture and decoration was very poor given this was their ‘best’ room. We had a awful nights sleep as a result of the mattress not fitting the bed base properly and sinking to one side & the very thin, poor quality duvets. The towels in the room were also thin and offered no absorbency. Our sleep was also hampered by ‘after hours’ drinkers in the restaurant and by middle of the night persistent hammering on the door of the room next to ours. Our experience in the restaurant was marred by our food arriving cold to then to be replaced with hotter but much smaller portions! The Greek salad was uninspiring and overpriced; 80% iceberg lettuce, 10% poor quality feta cheese and tomatoes & 10% olives. On the plus side the olives were lovely and salty. Additionally despite all other quests having their wine poured for them, ours was not. The breakfast offering was OK however we were only made aware of the hot options after we had chosen from the cold buffet and had started to eat. Given our overall experience we decided to check out after only staying one night. Whilst the receptionist seemed sympathetic to our cause the hovering manager/owner did not. We were offered a €20 reduction on our €400 bill for the privilege of very little comfort or hospitality. Note at the time of our stay the receptionists at both check in and check out were both extremely friendly.
