I thoroughly recommend this charming hotel.The owners made us feel welcome.It is easy to get to Lake Garda and Verona on the bus that stops nearby.The pool and gardens are well maintained,and the restaurant is of a very high standard.There is a pizzeria under half a mile away and a supermarket a little further on.A marvellous holiday,the room was spacious clean with quiet efficient air conditioning
I loved the hotel itself, it was a beautiful place and the wtaff were all ok. Not a lot of the staff spoke English and we were a little concerned that the person who checked us in took our passports to make copies but not qith us right there. I also was not a fan of checkout. I was under the impression we had already paid for our room but when we checked out the bill included the price of the room. Qhen asked the woman couldnt explain it in english but what i gathered was that the booking fee (of the same amount as the room) was different from the reservation fee (which was what was on the bill).
This place really grows on you! It is a short drive from downtown Florence, and it's easy enough to park in Florence and enjoy the city. (Parking at Park Hotel Elefante is FREE, however.) The service and courtesy of the staff is impeccable, the food of the associated restaurant is wonderful and the park is lovely. I highly recommend it.

Dear Joan,
Thank you very much for your kind comment.
Just one clarification: we are in Verona, not in Florence :-)
Hope to see you soon again
Kind regards
Clean and comfortable. The staff is excellent. The atmosphere in the hotel is very friendly. The grounds and pool are beautiful.

All round a good stay however, you definitely need a car as there is nothing close by. The location is ideal for access to Verona and the Lake by car. We stayed in one of the chalets which was spacious and had a large shower. Breakfast was very good served on the quaint terrace. There's a nice pool with plenty of free loungers and extensive gardens.
The restaurant is expensive with a limited menu and the drinks are expensive compared to elsewhere. 6€ for half a pint.
We stayed at this friendly, small hotel ( a converted villa) just outside Verona with two granddaughters aged 11 and 13. It was perfect for sightseeing in Venice, Mantua. Lake Garda etc. The owners are extremely helpful; the girls loved the cats and peacocks as much as the pool and garden; the breakfast buffet was excellent and the restaurant good although the menu is not very child-oriented.
Call the hotel direct for suggestions about family accommodation in small cottages in the grounds.
We thought this a real gem and would recommend it to anyone wanting to explore the area but have a place to wind down at the end of a day's sightseeing.
VERY ENJOYABLE, STAFF EXCELLENT VERY HELPFUL. FOOD EXCELLENT. ALTHOUGH JUST OFF ROAD VERY QUIET, BUS STOP OUTSIDE PROPERTY VERY USEFUL

Good comfortable hotel near verona
Good clean friendly hotel near a bus stop into Verona.pool clean and we'll kept.owners and staff very friendly and helpful.have to pay for a taxi back from town but having the pool makes up for this extra expense.breakfast good quality and plentiful.would stay again.
We arrived at the hotel in the early afternoon just as a large thunder and rain storm was approaching. Although i was a little disappointed in the industrial look of the surrounding area I was immediately enchanted with the hotel itself as soon as we drove off the road and onto the property. The gentleman at the front desk greeted us and suggested we come into the dining room for lunch. The dining room was really lovely overlooking the garden and pool and had a very warm homey feel to it. We were served a delicious meal with their house wine and watched the storm approaching. Our room up on the second floor was large ,comfortable and immaculate but unfortunately located in the front of the hotel right on the busy road. This was really my only complaint. Breakfast was served out on the patio and we enjoyed watching the resident peacocks walking around!
Great hotel with pool, excellent food lovely staff
Great hotel just outside Verona; frequent local bus service, 10 mins to castle; outside pool; lovely grounds with peacocks, palm trees; large bedroom with olde world charm and modern plumbing, powerful large shower, bidet.
Staff very friendly and helpful; ate in the restaurant 4 times in the week, excellent food and really good value.
The staff were so helpful and did everything to make our stay comfortable. I would highly recommend this hotel. Number 33 bus stops right outside and goes into the centre of Verona every half an hour...1 euro 50 cents. Taxi back after the opera was 15 euros. The little trips in and out of Verona were definitely worth it because the hotel is quiet and peaceful and you felt like you were miles away from city.
6km out of Verona and easily accessible from the main road, it was surprising to find laid out tropical gardens, swimming pool with jacuzzi section, roaming peacocks and very helpful service.
We stayed in a Chalet, two bedrooms with a common area. Nice and clean. Friendly owners. Breakfast OK. Bus trip to Verona took longer than advertised, especially on the way back to the hotel.
a fantastic place to stay just outside Verona with a regular bus to the centre from just outside the hotel. The staff of the hotel could not have been nicer. We would definitely return again.
Gorgeous, spacious room with own private outside space. The staff are very friendly and helpful; they made us feel very welcome. The hotel food is great; a Veronese BBQ! The city centre is 4km away and it is not a walkable route. However if you don't have a car there is a regular bus service that stops right outside and will have you in the ciry centre in 20 minutes for €1.50. The plus side of being further out is that you can retreat back to a sub-rural oasis of calm after a day in the city or on Lake Garda. Highly recommended. If I return to the Verona/Lake Garda region I will stay here again.

Отдых во время фестиваля в дали от городской суеты
Замечательный Антонио! Во всем помогает. Предоставил номер выше категории.
Da sabato sera a domenica mattina. Personale dell'albergo ok. Arredamento vecchio. Stanza ampia e pulita. In alcuni momenti sono arrivati in camera odori dalla cucina. Buona la colazione. Veranda ristorante molto bella.
Hotellet var tyvärr ganska slitet och levde inte riktigt upp till våra förväntningar. Närområdet är trist. Men har man bil och önskar ett hotell med pool nära Verona så kan detta vara ett alternativ.
Un hotel fatiscente che probabilmente in passato era bello e ben tenuto.
Adesso è decadente e poco curato, arredi vecchi, odore di chiuso nelle stanze . La parte esterna dei servizi abbandonata a se stessa. Un prezzo da 3 stelle per un livello da 1 stella

Närma Verona Airport
Blev en natt där för att komma närmare flygplatsen. Tyvärr köket stängt på söndagar. Så vi fick leta upp en restaurang i närheten för middag. Annars lite slitet hotell men ändå charmigt. Bra pool och fin trädgård.
Dziesięciodniowy pobyt w hotelu był bardzo udany. Bardzo miła obsługa hotelu wraz z przechadzającymi się zwierzętami (pawie + kot) wprowadzała domową atmosferę. Przyjemny basen, w którym można było bez tłoku popływać. Położenie hotelu umożliwiające wypady zarówno na wschód (Wenecja, Padwa)oraz na zachód (Jezioro Garda, Mediolan). W ramach zarezerwowanego pokoju dla trzyosobowej rodziny otrzymaliśmy klimatyzowany dwupokojowy domek. Jedynym minusem był brak lodówki i WiFi obejmujące swoim zasięgiem jedynie główny budynek hotelu i basen.
Les photos ne correspondent en plus, la chambre était vieillot
La piscine était un cimetière d'insectes, pas de wifi, chambre sale (araignées à plusieurs endroits), le pan était très joli mais empêche de s'endormir...
Séjour extrêmement décevant
Personale disponibile e simpatico rendono questo hotel ancora più affascinante. Buona colazione all'aperto immersi nel verde del giardino accompagnati dalla presenza dei pavoni non invadenti.
Wir sind positiv überrascht! Schöne und ruhige Lage, sehr freundliches Personal, 15 min bis Zentrum, beim Frühstück haben wir selbstgemachtes Fleisch bekommen, was ich persönlich genial finde. Beim nächsten Mal bleibe ich sicherin fdiesem Hotel!
Sehr schönes Familienhotel, ausreichend Parkflächen, gepflegtes und riesiges Parkgelände, hervorragende Küche,
gepflegte Getränke.
schnell von der Autobahn erreichbar
En campagne mais près des centres d'intérêts de Vérone, personnel et service hors pair... Les déplacements aux différents sites touristique nécessitent l'utilisation d'une voiture le transport urbain étant deficient sur la Bresciana strada. Exellente cuisine et bon vins régionnaux à bons prix...
Excellent accueil, un cadre inattendu car à la toute proche périphérie de la ville de Vérone, mais dans un grand parc calme, où l'on peut croiser une famille de paons! Très chouette déco. Des chambres de style, belle salle de bains, petit déjeuner et dîner excellents. Et une piscine! Nous y reviendrons.
Das Hotel liegt an einer Einfallstraße nach Verona, ca. 4 km vom Stadtkern entfernt. Trotzdem ist es aufgrund der Weitläufigkeit des Geländes nicht laut. Der zum Hotel gehörende Park ist schön angelegt. Die Zimmer sind einfach ausgestattet, trotzdem komfortabel und vor allem sauber. Auch wenn die Einrichtung an sich nicht mehr auf dem allerneuesten Stand ist, können wir das Hotel jederzeit weiterempfehlen. Frühstück gibt es in Buffetform; dieses ist in jedem Fall ausreichend.
Hôtel situé à quelques kilomètres de Vérone, la voiture est indispensable pour se rendre en ville. Très bon accueil, le personnel est très sympathique et chaleureux avec les enfants. La piscine est très agréable en rentrant de visite, très propre et l'environnement est agréable malgré une route assez fréquentée à proximité immédiate. Petit déjeuner copieux et assez fournit, le petit déjeuner se prend sur une petite terrasse en été. Le restaurant de l'hôtel est également très bien, nous avons mangé sur la terrasse au bord de la piscine.
Bra hotell med stort rom og trivelige utearealer. Ikke hvert år man er på et hyggelig hotell med fint parkanlegg, svømmebasseng og hvor hunder, katter og påfugl går fritt. Vi synes dette ga en god, lun og avslappet atmosfære. I tillegg lett og greit å ta seg til sentrum med buss. Kan anbefales. Rommet var meget rent og i tillegg god frokost.
