Catullo

I highly recommend this hotel to anyone considering staying in Malcesine or in the northern area of Lake Garda, Italy. This hotel was fantastic. It is family owned and operated, to include the friendly puppy dog named “Crusca.” The breakfast is better than you traditional / basic European hotel breakfast. This hotel has only 16 rooms which adds to the family type atmosphere. Just a 2 minutes walk to the funivia (funicular) up to Monte Baldo; also just a short 5-minute downhill walk to the castle in Malcesine overlooking the lake. The hotel’s WiFi connection is very good, as well. My only regret is that I didn’t have a few more days to stay here. HIGHLY RECOMMEND STAYING HERE!!!

I was a single traveller coming to Malcesine to be part of a larger wedding group, none of whom were staying at this hotel. Maurizio and Antonella - the owners - could not have been more hospitable and friendly to me. The hotel building is a basic 3 star but its setting in its landscaped grounds and the lovely pool and surrounds makes it feel much much more. The rooms are compact and basic, but perfectly adequate for all travellers, with a reasonable budget. I enjoyed every minute of being in the hotel, and also being in the town of Malcesine. I would highly recommend this hotel and hope that I will bring my wife and children to the hotel the next time I return. I could not say enough with regard the friendliness of the owners and you really feel that you are in their home, which for me is very good.
