Wir haben auf unserer Durchreise vom 24.07. bis 25.07.2026 im Hotel Ristorante Vecchia Riva übernachtet und waren rundum begeistert. Vom herzlichen Empfang über das sehr schöne und saubere Zimmer bis hin zum ausgezeichneten Service hat einfach alles perfekt gepasst. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir die Freundlichkeit des gesamten Teams, das hervorragende Essen im Restaurant und die wunderschöne Lage direkt am See. Man spürt in jedem Bereich die Gastfreundschaft und die Liebe zum Detail. Nach einem langen Reisetag konnten wir hier wunderbar entspannen und haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt. Vielen Dank an das gesamte Team für den gelungenen Aufenthalt. Wir kommen bei unserer nächsten Reise durch die Region sehr gerne wieder. Absolute Empfehlung – mehr als verdiente 5 Sterne! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
