11 Best Lake Garda Hotels, From Restored Monasteries to Glossy Villas | Condé Nast Traveler

"One of Lake Garda’s most historic addresses in Gardone Riviera, this former lavish hunting lodge from the 1800s built for the Austrian imperial family pairs a standout lakeside setting and botanical‑park grounds with a tiny private beach lined with cabanas and sun beds. Neoclassical suites channel bygone imperial glamor with breezy balconies and lake views. Three restaurants serve Mediterranean and Italian dishes—don’t miss the tasting menus at Il Pascatore for a standout dinner, including plates like risotto with duck ragout and hazelnut butter ice cream." - Silvia Marchetti
