Italy’s largest lake and perhaps its most beautiful, Lake Garda was once a vacation spot for Roman writers, European kings and artists. Today, many of the old buildings where the nobles used to throw wild balls have been converted into tourist attractions, while many of the old buildings have been given glittering decorations. The area’s excellent weather has been one of Garda’s biggest selling points – the lake is like a giant sun, and the mountains keep the heat in. Familiar sea breezes keep summer conditions calm and windsurfers happy, while the views are relaxing and best left from the private balcony. From Renaissance palazzos to nature resorts, here are some of the best and least known hotels in Lake Garda.
