Marcena Holidays from AU$3,278

Relaxing and picturesque hotel with super friendly and helpful staff. Newly refurbished rooms were very clean and comfy. Quiet because you are abit further out of the main town but really easy to walk into Riva del Garda for dinner in the evening.

I would have to give this hotel a mixed review. The reception staff, pool and breakfast were wonderful, but there were some issues with the room. The air conditioning only worked intermittently and not during the night and when my bed collapsed during the night (a pull out bed to make up a triple room), instead of receiving an apology, I was asked not to ‘jump on the bed.’ I’m a 51 year old woman and unlikely to do this! Also we hired 3 bikes which were not in good condition with poor brakes.

Pretty setting, pleasant staff. We were there in the off season, so everything seemed a little desolate. Hotel is in a lovely old building that has been renovated in dark glass-and-copper-mirror business hotel style. Garden is beautiful though.
