We stay in Riva twice a year on business. We have stayed at several different hotels in Riva over the years and the Hotel Sole is certainly one of the better ones. The hotel is typically 'Italian tourist resort' in that the rooms are fairly basic, but I would say that it is much quieter at night here than many... more

We stayed in this hotel from 28 December 2008 until 3 January 2009 as part of a package tour with Leger Holidays. The hotel is very well situated and we had a room onthe front overlooking the lake and the harbour. Outside within a short walk were all the amenities which Riva has to offer. The rooms were kept clean... more

Parking - the hotel spots 300m from the hotel were full (or maybe don't exist), we ended up in the underground garage (10e/day, very modern, long walk to the hotel). The hotel did provide a porter to fetch the luggage. On checkout, now knowing the lay of the land we were able to pull the car up to the front... more

The hotel is definately not 4 star, it was clean but the rooms were small. Thankfully we paid extra for a balcony overlooking the lake. I could not fault the location and Riva itself was fantastic. The only complaints were with regard to the food, the starters were ok but the main course was a big disappointment very bland and... more

Hi We have just returned from a weeks holiday at the Sole Hotel in Riva. We were apprehensive as we had read some very derogatory remarks about the hotel prior to our holiday. We were very pleased with the hotel, the food is good, yes there is rabbit stew on the menu but three other choices each evening as well... more

Stayed at the Sole last year and returned this July and had a wonderful time. Our room (110) was quite spacious and kept spotlessly clean - with clean towels and linen changed daily. The room was located on the front of the hotel so the view of the lake was fantastic. Only downside is that we were directly over the... more

Just returned from a 10 day holiday at the Hotel Sole. The location is fantastic, the hotel itself was excellent and the staff were friendly and helpful. The evening meal on half board was good but with limited choice. Whilst the car parking is 100m+ from the hotel, this does have the advantage, as some previous reviewers have pointed out,... more

We have just returned from two weeks at the Sole Hotel in Riva Del Garda. The location & scenery was second to non. But the only blot on an otherwise fantastic holiday was the 4* hotel. I would put it as a 2*. I cant understand how it was given the 4* rating.The room we were put in was very... more

Stayed at the Sole 14-21 July travelling with Jules Verne. Located in car-free picturesque and historic waterfront piazza. Our room 203 had a lake view, partly obscured by trees but a view of the water and harbourside nonetheless. The room was spotless, roomy with lots of cupboard and drawer space and must have been refurbished in the last year or... more
