We stayed at this hotel in July and it was a nice and clean little place, the rooms were clean and tidy. The location is perfect for exploring the lake, there's a few mini markets and plenty little shops just around the back of the hotel. The main bus station is about 5 mins walk also which is ideal. The staff were fantastic. We didn't spend to much time at the hotel and the only meal we really ate there was breakfast which was nice enough.
We stayed here for 3 nights end of July into Aug. The location can't really be beaten, middle of town and less than 5 mins walk to a number of beaches, seconds away to multiple bars/restaurant not forgetting that it has it's own. Very good continental style breakfast and excellent/friendly staff. We had a top floor room with balcony that over looked the bay that was spacious. The AC was centrally controlled and with the weather topping 36+ degrees the hotel dropped a fan into our room without asking which was a nice touch. Sheets/towels changed each day and mini fridge in the room too. It is a 3* hotel and I would say it is excellent for this rating.

Just WOW!! The food here is some of the best I tasted during my stay in 🇮🇹!! Food is fresh and very tastefull. The drinks come out quick and are very refreshing! Staff is very attentive and friendly, even on a busy night. I recommend to order several dishes, the food is just so nice and you can ask the staff to take it a bit slower with the food so you don't get full to quickly. Prices are very very reasonable as well.
When we are in Garda again, we for sure will be dining here again!

Sun, Sips, and Steak: A Perfect Evening at Casa Lady, Garda
If you find yourself wandering the charming streets of Garda and want a dining experience that captures the true, laid-back essence of Italian lake life, look no further than Casa Lady.
On a balmy evening, I secured a coveted table outside—the absolute prime spot for some world-class people-watching. Here is how a casual dinner turned into one of my favorite reviews of the season.
The Vibe & Service
From the second I sat down, the atmosphere felt effortlessly welcoming. The staff here don't just serve; they welcome you like an old friend.
Warm hospitality: The service was attentive, incredibly friendly, and delightfully paced—never rushed, allowing me to fully soak in the lakeside energy.
The View: Sitting curbside with a front-row seat to the local evening passeggiata (the classic Italian pre-dinner stroll) is worth the visit alone.
The Main Event: On the Table
To kick things off, the server poured a glass of local Valpolicella. Smooth, velvety, and bursting with red fruit notes, it was the ultimate companion for the hearty feast ahead.
The transition from a crisp lakeside breeze to the rich, comforting aromas of the kitchen is where the magic happens.
🍝 The Primi: Pasta with Bolognese Ragù
First up was a classic pasta tossed in a rich Bolognese Ragù. It was spectacular. The pasta was cooked to a flawless, toothsome al dente, holding onto a deeply savory, slow-simmered meat sauce that tasted like it had been bubbling away on a nonna's stove since sunrise. Simple, comforting, and absolutely delicious.
🥩 The Secondi: The T-Bone Steak
Then came the showstopper: a massive, perfectly cooked T-bone steak. Seared to perfection on the outside to lock in the juices, and incredibly tender and pink on the inside. It was seasoned beautifully, letting the high-quality cut of meat do all the talking. Paired with another sip of that smooth Valpolicella, it was pure culinary bliss.
The Verdict
Highly recommended.
Whether you are looking to escape the bustle for a long, lazy lunch or want to spend an evening watching the world go by over world-class steak and wine, Casa Lady delivers on every front. Grab an outdoor table, order a glass of red, and let the friendly team take care of the rest.

Every dish was poor quality, arrived cold, and was badly delayed. Finally, I ordered the mushroom pasta but received a bolognese instead, even though they insisted it was the dish I had asked for. The worst dinner in Italy.
