Hotel Campagnola (Riva del Garda, Italy)

This hotel underwent a complete renovation back in 2011/2012. This refurbishment hasn't gone unnoticed, with a high number of guests commenting very positively on the overall quality of the décor here. The chic bar and restaurant area in particular has earned quite a number of compliments, but inside their rooms, many were pleased to note that the housekeeping standards are excellent and units are kept to a high level of cleanliness.

In addition to the cold meats and cheeses of a standard continental breakfast buffet, many commented on the quality of the cappuccinos as well as the cakes, pancakes and pies, with the apple strudel being a guest favourite.

This hotel is set back from the main shore of Lake Garda, but the guest bike rental facilities here were a real boon. This was a very nice touch, something that really helped visitors to make the most of their stay both at this hotel and within the wider region.

While many appreciated the cycle rental facilities here, for some guests, this mode of transport wasn't ideal. For a number of visitors, the distance from the hotel to Riva del Garda and the lake itself was just too far, leaving some feeling isolated.

Additionally, a number of visitors - especially those with younger children - were dismayed to find that this property is situated directly on a busy road. Safety concerns aside, many found that noise from this thoroughfare was also an issue.

Finally, a number of guests reported that thin walls were a problem here. Many commented that they were aware of sounds emanating from neighbouring rooms throughout their stay.
