The Grand Hotel Gardone Riviera offers a dose of vintage glamour on the picturesque shores of Lake Garda.

First opening its doors way back in 1884, Grand Hotel Gardone Riviera can lay claim to being the oldest of Lake Garda’s hotels, and it certainly staked out a good location, stretched along a promenade right on the lakefront in the town of Gardone Riviera; the plush guestrooms, sundeck and restaurant make the most of the view.

Latest Updates

New Schengen entry requirements (planned for November 2024 onwards)

From November 2024, the new EU Entry/Exit System (EES) will start for all non-EU nationals, including British nationals, travelling in or out of the Schengen area. The Schengen area is made up of 29 European countries, 25 of which are EU Member States. The EES is a digital border system which registers non-EU visitors travelling into the Schengen area instead of stamping their passports.

You will need to have your fingerprints and your photo taken when entering the Schengen area. If you enter the Schengen area through Dover, Eurotunnel at Folkestone or St Pancras International, your fingerprints and photo will be taken before you leave the UK. You will also need to provide either your fingerprint or photo on exit.

You may experience longer queues at borders when the new system starts.

Passport Validity

To enter Europe, your passport must have:

a date of issue less than 10 years before the date you arrive – if you renewed your passport before 1 October 2018, it may have a date of issue that is more than 10 years ago
an expiry date at least 3 months after the day you plan to leave
at least one blank page for stamping

Room Types

All rooms

As befits a grande dame of Lake Garda establishments, Grand Hotel Gardone’s rooms and suites are traditionally lavish, appointed with rich rugs and silks and beautiful wooden furnishings. The décor varies in each guestroom; the Junior Suite Art Deco pays homage to early 20th-century architectural mores, while the Gabriele D’Annunzio Junior Suite honours the famous poet with a sophisticated space of racing green columns and burgundy wall tapestries. The W. Churchill Junior Suite was named so after the former prime minister’s visit in 1949.
