We enjoyed our stay at this older, but well maintained hotel. It is located lakefront right by the ferry docks which makes it very convenient for those with limited mobility and for those with luggage and don’t want to struggle with it on the cobblestone streets. It also has an elevator/ lift. Despite the location near the docks, we were never disturbed at all by noise. The hotel has air conditioning and a lovely breakfast. The staff is wonderful - always pleasant and most accommodating. We enjoyed the selection of restaurants close by, as well.
Hotel Malcesine was really lovely, right on Lake Garda near to the ferries and lots of places to eat. Staff were friendly and room was OK. Local shops nearby too.
In the centre of Malcesine which makes it very convenient but also quite loud from the street and square crowds.
Lovely view from our balcony and fantastic to be able to swim right from the hotel’s terrace.
Other hotels are more suitable for small kids but and longer status but with our teenagers and for a short stay it was great.
Too bad breakfast must be eaten indoors.

Just fine.
Excellent location, staff were friendly, room was quite small. Wall were very thin, we could hear everything the neighbours were doing. It was supposed to be a side lake view, but there was a huge tree blocking line of sight.
A really nice corner room with lake view, just by the harbour. Really cool bathroom. Breakfast outdoors, very nice. Cooling was almost non existing, so very warm in the room.
Everything was good, and the staff was very helpful when asked. The one surprising fault was that the coffee from the machines during breakfast was really bad. It's ground fresh, but the milk substitute tastes terrible. Truly the worst I've had in Italy so far. I've had very good coffee from machines in other countries in Europe.
Breakfast was limited and poor quality. The beds were not very comfortable and the hotel interior is dated. However, it is in a great location in Malcesine old town, right next to the dock, and our room had lovely views over Lake Garda from our balcony. It was also reasonably priced.
The location is perfect. And my only concern is that the room is not air conditioned. A fan would have solved the problem. It was wonderfully cool at night but, during the day, quite muggy, even with open windows.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Room comfort
Great location and staff.
A bit noisy in the mornings- not by the hotel but outside maintenance. Not awful at all but a bit annoying.
For a 3 star hotel, this is top tier. Everything you need, closest to the lake you'll get and the bed has so far been the best during my Italy trip. It is a bit dated, but that's expected and acceptable. The price is moreso the luxury of proximity than facilities. The breakfast was as good as a 5 star hotel. Would go here again if in Malcesine.
We had a fantastic stay here, the staff across the hotel are absolutely fantastic, always friendly and Super helpful a true credit to the hotel. The hotel is in a perfect location, close to everything around the town and right on the lake, the food for breakfast has enough choice as to not be too much. The room we stayed in (324) was a pretty standard size room with a great view of the cobblestone streets below, easy to watch the world go by. The bathroom was to be fair very small (especially for a bigger guy like me) but how long do you want to spend in the bathroom whilst you are away?!? I would highly recommend this hotel. Many thank yous to the staff that also organised a bottle of wine (which was very nice) in our hotel room when we arrived and a printed card as we were there to celebrate our wedding anniversary 😊
Die Lage ist fantastisch, ein bisschen laut auf der Terrasse, was aber nicht weiter gestört hat.
Das Frühstück war ausreichend, für jeden was dabei ( sehr nette Frühstücks dame ).
Ein junger Kellner hatte die Woche über leider täglich schlechte Laune, der Rest war nett.
Zimmer sowie das Hotel waren sauber, aber sehr abgewohnt.
Würde aber wieder kommen, da Malcesine ein schöner Ort ist.
Stanza con soppalco non grande, ma comoda. Abbiamo capito che il condizionatore si accendeva solo se la finestra era chiusa (biglietto messo solo in ascensore e non in camera) dopo aver chiesto in reception! Il parcheggio in centro più vicino, per un giorno 25€.
Fantastisk beliggenhed ved havnen. Vi manglede en altan,men benyttede i stedet hotellets lobby,som varok. Personalet var helt fantastisk,og restauranten nogenlunde god. Hotellets indretning er gammeldags, men samtidig hyggeligt.
