Staff was very helpful in anything you asked them. They picked us up and dropped us off at the train station with no issues. Breakfast was very good as well. The hotel is 200 years old, and you can tell in some areas, but for the most part the rooms were plenty for us for a couple of days. Will stay there again.

The spa facilities were very nice. I wasn’t aware there was a charge to use the facilities. That’s ok, but guests can’t get access to spa and until 3:00 in afternoon and must book it for 3 hours. I like morning soaks or at least at my convenience, not the hotel’s.

A Italian gem. Splendid!

Property is authentic and clean. We were in a lake view with balcony. Was lovely sitting out in the evening. Receptionists are warm and friendly, even came to collect us from train station. Hallways and stairs beautiful. Breakfast was extensive and nice overlooking lake. A real gem of a beautiful place.

Fabulous Hotel Mayer & Splendid

Our recent stay at the Hotel Mayer & Splendid was lovely. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They upgraded us to include a visit to the hotel spa, which was really relaxing. The hotel is really well situated in the centre of Desenzano, near all the restaurants and bars and across from the ferry stop, so easy for trips across the lake. The hotel is family owned. It isn’t a very modern hotel in many ways, although we find that is common in many parts of Italy. However, the marble staircases and so on give it a real charm. We stayed in a 3 person family superior room, which was more than enough for the time that you spend in the room when on holiday. It had a nice view over to the lake. The guests were a mix of nationalities, including lots of Italians visiting, which was a great sign of how well the hotel is regarded. There is a small cafe attached to the hotel which appeared to be owned by the hotel itself although it wasn’t accessed from the hotel. The cafe was nice for a quiet drink until he afternoon or evening, watching the people go by. Desenzano, and Lake Garda generally, was a lovely place for a holiday, and we would highly recommend Hotel Mayer & Splendid. We needed to leave early on the last day, and the hotel offered to make us some breakfast packs to take with us for the journey, which was a nice touch. We would definitely go back.

This property is in a great location on Lake Garda! The rooms were spacious but the central AC didn’t work and had to get the front desk staff to bring a remote for the wall unit which took a while to cool the room down. Once that was sorted, we didn’t have any issues. The beds are pretty hard but such is standard in many places around here. Finally, unrelated to the property, make sure you plan ahead for transportation. The bus and ferry run hourly and although the hotel offers to call a taxi for you, we were never able to actually get a taxi and ended up scrambling to make other plans. One day we used the bike shop next door to rent bikes and another we relied on the water taxis right out front. Also note that that ATMs here quickly run out of money for the day, so just plan ahead!

This is my first visit to this beautiful hotel, and I am so thrilled to have found this gem of a hotel in Desenzano del Garda. I was warmly greeted by Simone, who brought me to pick up my friend at the train station. Then, we were both greeted by Federico, whose customer service is outstanding, along with Simone, and Luis. Federico gave us a lot of information about the village, and offered suggestions for dinner. He, and the entire staff truly care about their guests. The location is amazing-right next to ferry stop. It is a hotel with an amazing history-I am filled with gratitude to have found this gem of a beautiful hotel. Thank you to the entire staff for making us feel so welcome.
