Villa Pioppi Hotel

The room wasn’t the newest, but it was clean and spacious. The place is beautiful, with great service, especially at the restaurant, and fair prices for delicious food.

The hotel and garden are stunning, and the service was excellent. Breakfast and the menu selection were impeccable. We visited in November, when the price was surprisingly low for such a magnificent location. We’ll definitely come back.

We came for my brother-in-law’s birthday dinner, so we didn’t stay at the hotel and only used the restaurant. The setting was wonderful, and the service lived up to it. Everyone was enthusiastic about how their dishes tasted and looked. We shared tuna tartare, two octopus dishes with Greek olives, potatoes and cherry tomatoes, and burrata with Pata Negra ham, with Hugo cocktails. For mains, some chose grilled sea bass, while others had pasta: carbonara, tagliolini allo scoglio and red shrimp pasta. My daughter had a hamburger and chips. The one downside was a couple with two children seated right behind us who smoked continuously for nearly two hours. I’d strongly suggest the management make a separate smoking area, so everyone gets what they’re paying for. I say that with a smile. Thanks for a lovely evening.

Federico made a huge difference to our wedding, from helping us plan it to keeping everything running smoothly during the reception. He was kind, professional and attentive, and his calm presence helped the day feel seamless. The food was fresh, tasty and beautifully presented, and Federico and the staff let us use several outdoor areas for the cake, photos and other special moments. The terrace was arranged well for both dinner and dancing, with guests enjoying the views over Lake Garda. We had a romantic sunset, and the private dock just off the deck made for unforgettable evening photos by the water. The hotel itself has plenty of charm, and the updated rooms are spacious, thoughtfully decorated and stayed cool through one of the hottest summers. We held our wedding reception at Hotel Villa Pioppi, and it felt like a dream come true. The lakefront setting was stunning and the service was wonderful. Villa Pioppi exceeded what we expected. I’d highly recommend the hotel and restaurant for an event, especially if you’re looking for lovely views, attentive service and charming rooms.
