Hotel Bellevue San Lorenzo - Adults Only

Hotel Bellevue San Lorenzo - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"Location and view of this hotel is amazing. We have just returned from staying there for a week. Its view is spectacular. We stayed in a Junior Suite that had a panoramic view of the lake. The hotel is very unique with its love of art displayed on the walls and rooms. Gustave Klimt stayed here in the early 1900's and painted the view. All the staff from reception to the waiters are polite, helpful and professional. The breakfast was plentiful. The evening meals are a la carte and the food was amazing. The pool area is clean, comfortable and peaceful and the pool looks over the lake. The hotel has a calm and quiet atmosphere which made for a relaxing week. I couldn't recommend this hotel more. It felt very indulgent given its amazing view and the excellant food. The rooms were spacious, clean and air-conditioned. A cleaner came everyday. One important factor to consider is that this hotel is raised up above the lake level and so there is some steep areas as you arrive at the hotel, when walking down from the hotel to walk along the water, and into the Malcesine. It is walkable but a consideration if you have mobility issues. Its location is great from boat trips and exploring the lovely town of Malcesine. There were many walkers and cyclists so if that your thing this area is very popular. No problems or issues or complaints - its a definite recommendation from us!"
