Prestigious hotel on the lakefront, a short walk from the centre of Sirmione
Spacious and elegant guest rooms with lake views

One of the most prestigious hotels on Lake Garda, the Hotel Villa Cortine Palace embodies elegance and impeccable style. Impressive wrought iron gates open into extensive private parkland with a driveway leading straight to the Neptune fountain, which stands at the entrance of this luxurious hotel. The Neo-classical villa, originally a splendid aristocratic dwelling, dates back to 1870 and was transformed in the latter half of the 20th century into the stunning hotel that stands there today. Behind the Doric columns supporting the portico-façade are the dramatic public rooms richly decorated with frescoes and decorated ceilings, and the guest rooms are spacious and elegantly furnished.

Amidst the peaceful grounds is the heated swimming pool (normally in use April to September), and for the more energetic there is a tennis court and activities such as waterskiing and windsurfing (payable locally). The Hotel Villa Cortine Palace is just a five-minute walk from the centre of the charming small peninsula of Sirmione and has its own private bathing jetty open during the summer months, so you can enjoy the crystal-clear waters of beautiful Lake Garda.

The hotel has 54 rooms (official rating 5 star) Child prices apply to ages 2-11 years.

About the location

Sirmione holidays take you to a historic spa town on the shores of Lake Garda. The oldest part of Sirmione stands on a narrow 3km long peninsula that juts out into the lake, offering strolls beside the water and a series of narrow cobbled streets and squares. The town’s famous thermal waters have been attracting visitors since classical times and you can still take advantage of their relaxing qualities at several spas.

Sirmione is one of the most popular resorts on Lake Garda – as well as the healing waters, visitors are drawn to its fairy tale medieval castle, ancient Roman ruins and some highly regarded ice cream parlours. The town’s location at the southern end of Lake Garda makes it easily accessible. By road the A4 Autostrada passes within 5km of Sirmione, while the nearest railway station is 8km away at Desenzano del Garda, on the main Venice-Milan line.
