Hotel Savoy Palace, Lake Garda

About Hotel Savoy Palace

Step into the luxuries of the Belle Époque with the refined and charming Hotel Savoy Palace, wonderfully situated in the centre of Gardone and separated from the lake only by pedestrianised promenade.

Designed by the architect Enrico Shafer, The Hotel Savoy Palace dates back to 1904 and continues to embody the elegance of Art Nouveau after its grand reopening in 1999. Its Neo-classical setting comprised of marble, stone and precious wood has welcomed the most distinguished guests such as international Royalty, Gabriele d'Annunzio and Winston Churchill.

Elegantly furnished public rooms and guestrooms are accompanied by the stunning views from the hotel's terrace, which is a lovely setting for an aperitivo before sampling the Hotel Savoy Palace's excellent cuisine.

The Hotel Savoy Palace's swimming pool is set on a leafy lawn that looks out over the lake, and a broad range of facilities such as a fitness room, sauna and whirlpool are available in addition to Beach Rimbalzelo, which is only 50m away.

A well-established hotel in the heart of Gardone Riviera, the Hotel Savoy Palace is a wonderful retreat from which to discover the highlights of Lake Garda such as the nearby Villa Il Vittoriale, which was once the home to Italy's celebrated literary figure, Gabriele d'Annunzio.

About Lake Garda

The largest of the Italian Lakes, Lake Garda stretches between the Alps and the Dolomites, embracing a diverse scenery, ranging from low-lying countryside on its southern borders and rising to the north with perpendicular cliffs draped in pine forests. Sheltered in a natural suntrap, the area around Lake Garda enjoys a warm climate in which olive groves and lemon orchards flourish.



DESENZANO

From the southern banks of Lake Garda lies the charming town of Desenzano, gazing out over to the Alps. A network of piazze, al fresco cafés and boutiques contrast beautifully with its three large beaches.



GARDA

Once a fishing village, Garda has become a colourful holiday resort, much favoured by Italian holidaymakers and opera fans due to its proximity to Verona, as well as being greatly appreciated by wine connoisseurs who make frequent trips to neighbouring vineyards in Bardolino.



GARDONE RIVIERA

From its lush gardens a path snakes through densely wooded arbours of the Acquapazza valley. Gardone Riviera's lakeside promenade is lined with intellectual cafés and artistic trattorias offering the gracious charms of a bygone era.



LIMONE

Limone, as its name suggests, alludes to the first lemon orchards planted in Europe. It is a magical place with old fishermens houses, narrow winding streets and lemon groves dominating the shores.



MALCESINE

Malcesine, one of the most charming towns on Garda's eastern shore, nestled by olive groves and sage coloured hills. A funicular climbs up Monte Baldo where scenic walks can be enjoyed in summer on its famous ski slopes.



RIVA

Riva, sheltered by Monte Rochetta and exuding a gentle and unhurried atmosphere, characterised by a medieval old town with one foot in a picturesque fishing harbour and the other raised to the 14th century castle.



SALO

Salò is a much sought after resort amongst informed cognoscenti offering an exciting choice of bars, cafés and inventive restaurants, specialising in regional dishes.



SIRMIONE

Set on a narrow promontory on the southern shore of Lake Garda, Sirmione is prized for its strategic location and gentle enchantments since ancient Roman times. At the entrance to the little town, which time seems to have passed by, rise the impressive fortifications of Rocca Scaligera.



TORBOLE

Torbole enjoys a privileged location between the north-west slopes of Monte Baldo and the mouth of the Sarca river. The area is favoured by windsurf enthusiasts and walkers who meet for cheerful refreshment at its quaint harbourside.



TREMOSINE

A lovely, unspoiled village Tremosine is sheltered from mass tourism by harmonious landscapes, cascading waterfalls, thick oak woods and ancient olive and chestnut groves.
