The location, on the harbour-side and on the edge of the main square, is perfect for the foot-sore traveller. You are close to everything that counts - restaurants/cafes/shopping/transport (bus,ferry,taxi). All of the staff are really helpful and ready to assist travellers and the breakfast is more than adequate. Stairs. There is a lift to level one only, so beware if you have heavy bags or lack mobility.

Beautiful view over old port - one of nicest hotel terraces I've ever had! Nice breakfast and chance to sit on the hotel terrace outside for a cup of tea. Liked the hotel mini library and chance to go on the shared roof terrace as well. Great location in the town and by the lake. I could not get the WiFi to work despite having the log on details, but decided not to use it any way.

The WiFi is not good and you keep getting knocked off. Then you have to start set up all over again...I just gave up.

My husband and I were pleasantly surprised to discover that Hotel Piroscafo was in a lovely location, both picturesque and near Lago Garda and its ferry service. I did not expect to find such a modern, clean and comfortable room for the reasonable price we paid. The full breakfast, included in the room rate, was another happy surprise. We were able to get good information from the receptionist about the ferry service. Clearly this hotel and a visit to Lake Garda is a well-kept secret for most American tourists in Italy. Most of the other tourists we saw were European. Visiting nearby towns along the lake by ferry was fun too. We would happily return to this hotel.

We thought the hotel was excellently maintained, very comfortable, bathroom had a Bidi which we thought was great and not expected in a 3star hotel, the outlook from our balconey was great and very relaxing. We would most certanly go back and stay there again, the staff were very helpful and accomidating. It was a shame no lunches were avaliable, but there many cafe's near by.

This is a friendly comfortable hotel in a very good location. The hotel overlooks a small port for small fishing boats and there are cafes and restaurants opposite and nearby. It is also near the departure point for ferries and the bus stops. Breakfast can be eaten on the terrace outside the hotel as well as in the dining room. Overall this is hotel is very good value for the money. One small complaint is the hairdryer in the bathroom which was very weak.

the hotel is in one of the best locations in desenzano, also the staff were very helpful and attentive. there is not much to criticise about the hotel, but if you want to be picky, the bedrooms are on the small side, as is the en-suite shower. also the buffet breakfast could run low on supplies if not timed right.

The hotel is situated really in the center of the city and two steps away from the lake. Our room was very clean, of a reasonable size - but not big - . We chose a room with harbour view, but that did not help much, apart from the noise coming from all the terraces around the small harbour. So if you can avoid it, avoid taking a room with harbour view. The staff was really nice and helpful. The breakfast was a mix of Italian & continental. Apart from the sweet things, there was cheese & salami, yoghurt, juice and so on. I fully recommend at least 1 night in Desanzano del Garda. It is beautiful!

Excellent location in the centre of town set back from the harbour. Well appointed, good sized bedroom with good bathroom. Good breakfast. Could not connect to the hotel WiFi system with my Apple iPod touch but had no problems at other establishments. The bed mattress was firm as were the pillows both of which did not make for a comfortable sleep. Management made sympathetic noises when given a problem but did not resolve them, in specific, the above WiFi problem and a table lamp that was not working.

Well positioned in the centre of Desenzano nice hotel with a sun terrace overlooking the old harbour.I Use it for business attanding trade fairs in vicenzia because of the good rail connections it has.Would also be good if you wanted to visit venice as a day trip 90 minutes away by rail, mantua and cremona abour 60 minutes.not so good if you want to spend the week exploring the lake as it is a one end of it and it takes a long time 4 hours one end to the other and 4 hours back Good value for the price the hotel gets top marks.I Suppose a fridge in the room would be good

Good location The mattresses are exteremely hard which meant my wife could hardly sleep for the entire trip. The shower area is so comically small that when you shower it feels like the shower curtain is trying to strangle you.

Hotel Piroscafo si trova in una posizione ottimale: è facilmente raggiungibile dalla stazione, vicinissimo al molo dei traghetti e si trova proprio al centro di Desenzano. Per questo motivo risulta semplice spostarsi per andare a visitare I luoghi vicini (Sirmione, Peschiera...) o semplicemente passeggiare lungo il lago e poi cenare in uno dei tanti ristoranti. Inoltre il personale è molto gentile e premuroso, pronto nel fornire informazioni o se necessario, come nel nostro caso, nel reperirne.
