Hotel Lido Garda

Stayed here for the last leg of our trip after visiting Rome ,Venice and cruising for a week.Booked private shuttle to FCO for the flight home.Its about an hour transfer @ 125 Euro for 4 people 4 large 4 med pieces of luggage. Anzio is a beautiful "Quiet" seaside town.The hotel is an older traditional hotel with all the necessary amenities.The staff are very friendly and accommodating.The rooms are comfy and clean,ask for the rooms at the front overlooking the sea with nice balconies 110,112 a little more $$ I highly doubt the reference to fraud more like a language issue or misunderstanding.The family that owns the beach bar and the hotel have no need to fleece their customers. Take the opportunity to visit the water front beach bar it's right across the street.Chairs and umbrellas to rent typical European practice approx 12-15 euro per.Food and booze at beach bar are cheap.Staff very polite and accommodating.Beach jockey could of smiled a bit more but he worked hard at keeping everyone happy.Book chairs and umbrella at beach bar the hotel will provide discount coupon for hotel patrons. Take a cab to town ask the hotel for Stefano he speaks English and is very accommodating you can take his recommendation(we did the first time and it was excellent)or just get out in town at the harbourfront restaurants.Cab ride for two couples return 20 euro you could walk but it's at least 1/2 hour to walk.Restaurants were excellent and numerous to choose from.While strolling the water front you can ask for a menu and make your choice of fresh seafood or Italian fare.The later you go the more people you will have to deal with in typical European style these folks eat late and enjoy the night on the water. Being a WW11 landing for the Allies don't miss the Commonwealth and Beachhead Memorials very humbling experience to visit the cemeteries anytime,anywhere 'Lest we Forget'

I use this hotel quite a lot as I regularly visit family in the area. The hotel is clean and the staff are friendly. It is across the road from the beach and Anzio is a short walk or drive away.

Stayed here with wife and 2 small kids. They upgraded our room at no charge as I made a booking mistake. Let us check out very late, no charge again. Staff was EXTREMELY Helpful. Right across the street from the sea and beach. Only negative was that there is nothing else to do and no where to eat but pizza in the area. I would still highly recommend this hotel if you want to just go to the beach.

Good enough cheap accomodation. Considering the season (october) cannot judge access to beach and facilities. I was there to visit family and accomodation convenient.

We stayed at Lido Garda on a road trip through Italy. We found parts of Anzio to be run down and quite depressing. We visited the Commonwealth War Memorial, which was a moving experience in reflecting on the WWII battle at Anzio.

This is a nice, well run small hotel who offers B&B. The principle rooms, lobby, patio, pool were wonderful. The cafe and bar on site reasonable and pleasant. The breakfast was, by normal Italian standards a feast and very good. Parking is good and the location convenient. There are, for three of us with all our gadgets, too few electric outlets in the room. Additionally, it had very odd switching for the lights - really a puzzle of 15 minutes duration. No view, but a quiet room, across from public beach access and near the war memorial cemetery. Do not miss the memorial.

Bear in mind, we loved the private beach, the pool, the breakfast and the helpfulness of day time staff. We even didn't much mind the room, which did not seem the cleanest. What really threw us off was the old man behind the reception desk at night, who claimed we needed to pay more than owed. At the time we didn't notice but this kind of unprofessional, deceptive behavior does not only do the hotel name damage, it also exacerbates the stereotype of the unreliable, untrustworthy Italian.

The whole experience was wonderful, esp. the complete 5 course dinner they served us the night before we left for 50 euros (for two!). A perfect hotel in a word, one we'd go to again....

Lovely hotel with great restaurant. Great view from the front.
