The Grand Hotel Fasano is perched on picturesque Lake Garda and set within a 12,000-square-meter park that is filled with palms and banana trees. Located on the edge of the Dolomites, halfway between Venice and Milan, the iconic property has welcomed guests with exceptional service since the 19th century. Once a splendid residence that served as a hunting lodge of the Austrian royal family, The Grand Hotel Fasano now offers a family-run oasis for travelers in an exotic setting.

This is an elegant yet very friendly hotel. Every aspect of the hotel is excellent. The location is stunning and allows easy access to the Lake Garda ferry service within a 15 minute walk so you do not need a car to explore. All staff are first class and we had the best breakfast of any location we visited in our nearly month long trip to various cities in Italy. The concierge service provided some excellent trips for getting around and booked activities for us when needed. This hotel deserves to be on The Leading Hotels of the World list.

Lovely hotel. Staff were unfailingly helpful and friendly. We had a deluxe room with lake view which was excellent.

Our favorite hotel on the trip, the Grand Hotel Fasano has everything you need. Two fabulous pools (one warm, one colder), a perfect spa, which is both welcoming and spacious, a great restaurant (one of the best meals we had in Italy), a super friendly and conscientious staff, and a great neighborhood, with close proximity to a Lake Garda ferry route. We had a small room, and even though they tried to get us to upgrade, it was perfect for a couple, with an amazing view overlooking the Lake. This would be the hotel we would come back to on Lake Garda.

As a property specialist who regularly scouts accommodations and destinations for my clients, including high-profile guests, I can confidently say that Grand Hotel Fasano is an exceptional choice for anyone visiting Lake Garda. The property is beautifully situated directly on the lake, with stunning views and excellent facilities, including a swimming pool, spa and wellness area, gym, restaurant, and bar. The rooms are elegant, comfortable, and beautifully maintained, and the entire hotel has a wonderful atmosphere that feels both luxurious and welcoming. A special mention must go to Guisy, the Guest Relations Manager, who was absolutely wonderful throughout my stay. She was incredibly helpful, attentive, and knowledgeable, assisting me with everything I needed as well as providing excellent recommendations for the surrounding area. Her professionalism and genuine hospitality made a lasting impression and are exactly the level of service I look for when recommending properties to my clients. After experiencing the hotel personally, I would feel very comfortable recommending Grand Hotel Fasano to my clients traveling to Lake Garda. Between the beautiful location, excellent amenities, and warm and professional management and staff, it offers the kind of experience I am always looking for when scouting properties in Italy. I look forward to recommending it for future stays.

Real old school grand dame of a hotel - great location on the lake. food was good as was the service throughout. We were in the new wing and the room was dsiappointing, good size and had everything but the interior looked like an afterthought, was more motel set up than 5 star hotel which was the only disappointment.
