We have just returned from a week at the marvellous Hotel Piroscafo in Desenzano Del Garda. We had a wonderful time. From the moment we booked until the moment we checked out the staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. We stayed in room 15 on the 3rd floor with a balcony overlooking the lake, the room was... more

Spent three nights at the hotel on a B&B basis and enjoyed the breakfast. Our room was at the back of the hotel and we had no problems with noise even on the day the market was setting up. Room was compact (i.e. small) but perfectly OK for our stay. The location was great for getting to the lake ferry... more

Just back from a week in Desenzano and this beautiful hotel. When the temperature is in the high 20's, you do not want to walk every day between the old town centre (with its shops, restaurants and cafes, ferries and emtertainment) and your hotel; this hotel is facing the old harbour and yards from great places to sit and watch... more

I took other reviewer's advice and didn't get the breakfast. It was a good decision as one morning we... more

Well, The young lady was quite nice that checked me in. She had me sign some forms that stated that if anyone called for me it was ok for them to verify I was staying at that hotel. She then took my passport gave me instructions on how to get to my room and handed me the room key. Meanwhile... more

My wife and I stayed at Hotel Piroscafo, Desenzano Del Garda for 5 nights from 30/05-04/06. The room. Our room (17) was spotlessly clean. We paid extra for a lake view and to be honest im not so sure I should have bothered in hindsight. The lake view was actually a view of a small harbour. The lake itself was... more

The photos don't lie! The views - it is directly on the little lagoon and overlooking the town courtyard- are marvelous. The rooms are cozy, but the terrace expands the living area and gives a lovely sense of spaciousness. The bed was oh-so-comfy, the bathroom new and of course the entire property was spotless. Breakfast was plentiful and it was... more
