Villa Madrina Lovely and Dynamic Hotel

We had a delightful stay at this hotel. Our room was spacious and very comfortable with a nice view from the balcony of the lovely garden and pool and with lake Garda in the distance. It was also very quiet and peaceful at night. The food was excellent with delicious vegetarian options available. All of the staff were extremely efficient, friendly, polite and helpful. Everywhere inside and outside the hotel was kept spotlessly clean and well presented. The hotel was just a few minutes walk away from the harbour at Garda where the ferries depart and return to and from other places on the lake. The bus station was also just a short walk away. We couldn't find fault with this hotel and will definitely return there if we visit Garda again. Thank you.

This is a wonderful hotel that pays attention to detail in every department and I could not recommend this hotel enough to anyone and let me also say the staff can not do anymore for you at every level from cleaners to managers

Had an excellent stay at the above hotel. Cleanliness, food and staff were all exceptional. Location was just a short walk from the lake. There is a bus which you can book to return from Verona if you are going to the opera.

My wife and I booked this hotel based upon a number of factors. We wanted to be situated around Lake Garda with good public transport links to the other towns. Villa Madrina is a 10 minute walk to the bus station and is even closer to the ferry terminal. We wanted to be close to the town. Again a short walk to the edge of the lovely Garda Town Centre. We didn't want a big bustling hotel. Villa Madrina is a small family run hotel that is set back enough to give a feeling of peace whilst being very conveniently situated as stated above. A 4 star superior hotel that is a cut above the norm. Beautifully maintained grounds. A pristine swimming pool. A relaxing sunbathing area. That's just the outside. The interior is traditional but certainly not dated. There is a charm to this hotel. That was evident the moment we arrived. A lovely warm welcome. From that moment we were treated to amazing service from the front desk to the restaurant to the housekeeping team. The staff are very professional and looked after us beautifully for 2 weeks. Nothing was too much trouble. Minor issues were dealt with immediately and the front desk in particular went out of their way to make our holiday special. Without mentioning specific individuals we just want to say to you the team thank you for the most wonderful time. You are all a credit to Villa Madrina and the hospitality industry. Jane and Marc x

Good location, comfortable, quiet and most enjoyable. The pool area is beautiful. Breakfast is served outdoors next to the pool. Lots of choice from warm cooked breakfast to delicious Italian pastries. We didn't have dinner at the hotel. I'm sure the Madrina restaurant matches the hotel in quality and style. It is just pleasant to go for a stroll in the evening and have dinner elsewhere.

Very nice hotel in good quiet location very near to town centre with bus station and ferry port a short walk away. With views of the lake. Top quality food in the restaurant.Health and beuty spa and gym if you want

This hotel is something special in terms of the service, food and surroundings. Whilst not inexpensive, we received excellent hospitality whilst we were there. It is close to the main road, so there is some background noise during the day, but not too much, and the hotel is situated less than 10 minutes walk from the lake front. There was a good variety of food and quality wines and high standards of cleanliness and service. The grounds were extremely well maintained and the pool area was spotless and never became too busy. The only slight drawback for us - and it is a minor point - was the outright refusal of a member of staff to give us drinking water for our room on the first night. The expectation was that we used bathroom tap water, or, I think, to purchase water from the mini bar. Also, the pricing of some of the snacks available during the day was a bit odd, for example, the cost of a piece of cake of an ice cream was 9 Euros, which was more than some of the alcoholic drinks available! However, these are only minor points and did not detract from our enjoyment.

The Hotel was friendly and the services provided were excellent. The room was a good size. There was a good variety of food on the menu. The Hotel was perfectly located with the centre of Garda only a short walk away.

We first stayed at the Villa Madrina in 2005, it was great to see that the standards are as good now as they were back then. I have stayed at many hotels around Italy, this is head and shoulders above the rest. I guess this what you get when it is a family owned hotel and not a bland hotel chain. Bravo the Tondolini family. I cannot express how good the Villa Madrina hotel & staff are. My wife and I had a fantastic holiday which was assisted by the excellent staff; polite, efficient and always ready to assist and help, nothing was too much trouble. The location and position of the hotel is excellent, its like returning to an oasis of calm and tranquility after long hot days sightseeing around the lake. The food is fantastic, with a different menu every night. I very much enjoyed the Gala night. It was nice to see the same pianist from back in 2005 when we first stayed at the hotel. We celebrated our wedding anniversary at the end of our stay; on return to our room at the end of the day the management had placed a bottle of prosecco and card in our room, this was extremely thoughtful and very much appreciated. If you stay here, you will not regret it. Fabulous hotel.
