The hotel's location was very good. The view was very beautiful. Now, it's definitely not a 4-star hotel, at most 3 stars.

Hotel location is very unique! It is far out on the peninsula so driving through the tiny town to get there was a challenge. But the views are lovely and the room was spacious. Balcony was huge! A very nice hotel!

A few days break

A few days break prior to visiting Bologna. We flew into Milan, train to Pescheria then taxi to Hotel Ideal. Perfect location, close to Jamaica beach and away from the crowds in summer. Good breakfast and excellent coffees!

Absolutely fantastic. Greta location, to get to the hotel if you are driving you do have to drive through the historic centre which can be a little narrow and busy, however is not an issue and quite the experience. The hotel is ideally located for exploring, relaxation. The staff were amazing, especially Simone who was great with recommendations and just overall and absolutely delight to talk with.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

The location of this property was stunning with views and proximity to the lake. It is located at the edge of the peninsula, so you do have to walk 10 min to the town center. The rooms are modern, but the washroom was a bit outdated and the mattress was very hard and uncomfortable. The breakfast had lots of options and tasty. My favorite was the view of the lake - just stunning.

Perfect Location & Facilities. Staff are amazing. The pool area has a beautiful view of the lake & plenty of sun beds in the sun & shade if preferred with a bar/restaurant for pool side enjoyment. Private access to the lake for hotel guests & a short walk to Jamaica Beach & the main town make this hotel the perfect location. Quiet & peaceful area. A special thanks to all the staff involved in helping me with a surprise for my partner. All round brilliant stay, if you’re looking for a location in lake garda, Sirmione is the place & Hotel Ideal is the cherry on top

Fabulous, quiet location, with great views of the lake and an easy, beautiful walk into Sirmione. The hotel and grounds are excellent and the buffet breakfast is a fabulous cornucopia of excess - we really loved this - especially the freshly made coffee, and fruits and vegetables. The A/C was wonderful and beds firm but comfortable, allowing us the best nights sleep of our vacation. The real highlights here are the staff, the service, and hospitality, which exceeded my expectations. Everyone went above and beyond to ensure our stay was exceptional. The only downside - and this was my poor planning and nothing to do with the hotel - was the popularity of Sirmione and the thousands of visitors during the summer months, which made getting in and out of the town by car an absolute nightmare after 9.30am. Seriously. I would suggest paying for parking outside the old town, getting a transporter/golf buggy service to take you and your luggage to and from your hotel at the start/end of your stay, and walking to your car for trips outside Sirmione.

Peaceful hotel, traditional with helpful staff. Breakfast was a bit limited, hot food wasn’t warm and coffee not great. Few things a bit tired as it’s an old hotel things like towels being very thin were noted. Lovely place though and would stay again as great location.

We booked a double room with a balcony. It was very basic, but was clean and the bathroom huge. We greatly appreciated the complimentary bottle of Spumante. The breakfast is very good with plenty of choice. Sebastian and Simone from the front desk are excellent ambassadors for the hotel. They were both very friendly and super accommodating. I would recommend this hotel, located away from the noise and chaos and very relaxing indeed.
