Hotel Du Parc

Obwohl man in Italien von Haus aus mediterranen Style erwartet, ist das Hotel - als ausgewiesenes 4 Sterne Haus - etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Ein bisschen Modernisierung täte durchaus gut, sowohl in den Zimmern, als auch in den öffentlichen Bereichen, wie Lobby, Speisesaal etc. Da jedoch das Hotel eine so fantastische, günstige Lage zur Altstadt von Garda hat, hält man sich gar nicht so lange im Hotel auf. Für einen Kurzurlaub von 3 Tagen, wie wir ihn verbracht haben, hat's genau gereicht! Empfehlenswert für die Hotelbetreiber wäre die Erweiterung des WLAN Netzes, dieses ist nur in unmittelbarer Nähe zur Lobby zu empfangen.

Ein Hotel mit super Lage direkt am See im 5Minuten erreicht man das Zentrum zu Fuß. Tolle Parkanlage, Kostenloser Parkplatz. Alles in einem ein sehr schönes Hotel mit romantischem, nostalgischem Flair.

Our room was one of the smaller ones, but it was still clean comfortable, air-conditioned and with a small fridge you could stock with your own drinks at no charge. The best fetaures of the hotel are the setting, location, pool and gardens. The hotel has lovely views over Lake Garda (especially from the terrace where you take breakfast), and it only takes 10 minutes to walk in to the centre of Garda (which is one of the nicest towns around the lake). The gardens are large, well-maintained and with shade given by trees. The pool is a decent size and with only 25 rooms or so the pool was rarely busy during our stay in August. Getting a sunbed was easy - and no charge (unlike some hotels I have been to in Italy). Breakfast was good and we took an evening meal at the restaurant twice during our stay and the food was fine, but there is also a great choice of restaurants a short stroll away into town.

We had a junior suite with balcony for which we paid extra. Prior to the trip we asked Expedia to check if rooms had air con. and they said that yes it was "available". On arrival on 14th June we discovered that the rooms are equipped with air con. but it is not switched on until July. As the temperatures were up to 36C most days, this made the room very uncomfortable. After our request however, the staff did supply a fan which helped somewhat. Also, there were 2 wedding celebrations during our week. One having a disco that went on until 12.30 and was naturally extremely noisy. The resort also had a lot of disco music that went on until late in the night. When we booked, the hotel was rated as 4 star but we noticed on arrival that it had been downgraded to 3 star. The above is why we have given a 3 rating. In hindsight, if we had known about the above before booking, we would have had second thoughts. On the positive side, the hotel is in a beautiful spot with lovely views and excellent gardens, pool etc.

We spent a wonderful week in October 2011 at Hotel du Parc. The staff could not have been more friendly, helpful and accomodating. The dining room was no longer open for evening meals due to the time in the season that we chose to visit; however the hotel is only a short walk from the "centre" of the town which has a wide variety of restaurants to choose from. The hotel did serve a beautiful fresh buffet breakfast every morning between 7:30am & 10:00am. There was everything from sweet pastries and cakes to fresh fruit, fruit salad, yoghurt, a selection of hams and cheeses as well as warm bacon and eggs. Our room was spotlessly clean and the bed linnen was changed every second day. The waiter at breakfast time was very friendly and remembered our tea/coffee orders. The hotel manager who seemed to be on duty 24 hrs a day (although he assured me he "only" worked 18 hrs per day) was extremely friendly and helpful, able to provide advice on everything from things to do with the hotel & our stay to public transport as well as local beauty spots and places to visit. I'm not sure how many languages he speaks but he was Itallian and spoke fluent English & German. The hotel grounds are beautifully kept and well looked after as is the swimming pool. We only managed one swim during our stay as the water was rather chilly. Mind you - it is Autumn after all. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely reclomend this Hotel to anyone interested in staying here.

Zimmer sauber und aussreichend groß, Ausstattung gut; Frühstücksbuffett nichgt immer nachgefüllt, für 4 Sterne unzurerichend, ab halb zehn wird fast nichts mehr aufgefüllt, Frühstückseier total zu hart. Lge park und pool super, wirlpool zu kalt. sehr freundliche und relativ aufmerksamer service.

Das Hotel ist nur durch die Ufer-Prominade vom See getrennt. Bis nach Garda sind es zu Fuß über die Prominade ca. 5 Minuten. Die Mitarbeiter an der Rezeption sprechen deutsch. Der Garten ist sehr schön angelegt, der Pool wurde erst neu gemacht. Leider stört die schlechte Innenarchitektur, die wild gewählen Farben im Haus und der direkte Straßenverlauf vor dem Hotel. Etwas mehr Liebe zum Detail wäre nötig. Das Hotel ist aber trotzdem zu empfehlen, wenn man über diese Punkte hinweg sehen kann.

excellent location

+ Lage direkt am Garda See, traumhafter Ausblick auf den See und die Berge + Sehr gepflegter Park, entspricht wirklich den Fotos + 2 gepflegte Pools, davon 1 Whirlpool + Frühstück bei Sonnenschein auf der Terrasse ist sehr empfehlenswert. Die Auswahl am Buffet ist reichlich, frisches Obst war immer vorhanden + Atmosphäre im Hotel toll, es gab nirgends Gedränge + Ausschlafen war gut möglich, da Zimmermädchen erst ab 9 Uhr anfingen die Zimmer zu machen + Die Zimmer selbst waren auch schön eingerichtet. Wir hatten ein sehr geräumiges Doppel-Zimmer bekommen, selbst mit Badeurlaubsgepäck konnten wir nicht allen Platz belegen + Das Hotel verfügt über Parkplätze die 24/7 zugänglich sind. + Läuft man entlang der Seepromenade sind Restaurants innerhalb 10 Minuten zu erreichen, ebenso Bademöglichkeiten mit Kiesstrand in 5 Minuten. = super zufrieden, sollten wir nochmal nach Garda fahren, werden wir auf jeden Fall das Hotel du Parc buchen

We all had a fabulous time and could not fault the hotel, staff or location.
