We selected the hotel as it offered self-catered apartments whilst being quite close to the town centre and transport links. We wanted out 'kids' (18 and 20) to be able to be independent if they wanted. Other must-haves for us was secure parking and a pool. The hotel delivered on all counts. It is well organised with friendly staff (always... more

We had booked a two bedroomed apartment, the apartment we got had one double bedroom, one twin room and a single room, the living area also had a fold down bed and had lots of room even when the bed was down, how do we know when there was only four of us? When we arrived at just after midnight... more

Our apartment was very comfortable and for Italy this was saying something with self catering accommodation. The cooking facilities left a lot to be desired. There was a 2 burner hob, fridge and a microwave, but where the microwave was placed it could not be plugged in. I moved it next to the hob where the only power point in... more

Booking close to the time of arrival I was unable to secure the largest apartment for any longer than our first night. Unfortunately one of the Kids left the bathroom window and light on while we were out on the first evening. When we returned we were over run with ants!!!! We didnt make that mistake again. The following day... more

We stayed in a two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment. The master bedroom and living/dining/kitchen area were huge, as were the bathrooms. The second bedroom was fine -- probably only seemed small in comparison to the other rooms. The apartment was immaculate, tastefully decorated, and the very luxurious bathrooms looked like they were almost brand new. The location is excellent -- on a... more

These kitchenette apartments are great for families who want to save money by being able to prepare food at home. Kitchenette equipment is minimal however, so dont aim for 7 course meals! You pay 6 Euros for breakfast and fellow travellers felt it was not worth it. The apartment was bright and spacious but we were not aware that the... more

We stayed at the Il Sogno during September after spending 3 nights in Venice. The apartments are only a short 10 minute walk downhill from the train station and an easy 10 minute walk into the centre of Desenzano. We found the staff very helpful and the room was very spacious. There is currently a building being constructed next door... more

Stayed here with my husband, mother and 21 year old daughter. We had 2 apartments. They are very large. They are spotless. Pool isn't busy. The apartments are in an ideal spot. Everything you could need is nearby, restaurants, bars, shops and a market on a Tuesday. The boat to take you around the lake is here as well. We... more

We spent two weeks in June at Il Sogno and thoroughly enjoyed it. We were traveling with two young children (4 & 8 years old) and grandmother. The hotel is only 9 years old, located in a quiet residential neighborhood, but a short walk to the historic center, old port, and the train station. We did not have a car... more
