Aqualux Hotel Spa Suite & Bardolino

Lovely hotel just a 10-15 minute walk to Bardolino town and the lake. We didn’t use the spa and pools, but they looked lovely. Room was spacious and clean. Reception staff were helpful and friendly. We stayed B&B and the breakfast food was nice with a good selection, booking a taxi was weird. We had to book the day before and reception requested the taxi for us, but the taxi company didn’t accept the booking until 8pm. So it was a bit of a worry if we’d make our train to Milan. It worked out ok, the taxi was on time, but it’s the first time we’ve had to book the day before and wait several hours for confirmation.

This is a very nice hotel.|There are only about 125 rooms so it never feels overcrowded and you can always get a lounger or table by one of the many pools.|We were half board and in general, the food was excellent. Breakfast was very good, although some of the evening meal options and descriptions were a little odd - warm carpaccio anyone?! The wine is excellent and reasonably priced, and the service was really friendly. |We had a room above the bar at the front of the hotel, but we didn’t hear a sound despite 30 or so Germans being sat immediately below our balcony! The room itself was large, well equipped and spotlessly clean.|The hotel is an easy 10 minute walk from the town and lakefront.|If you’re going further, use the ferry or bus. Don’t use the local taxis because they’re extortionately priced - EUR100 for a 40km round trip and EUR50 for a 5km round trip.|Otherwise, a lovely hotel in a lovely town.

A wonderful trip to lake Garda and the Aqualux spa was the perfect base. The location less than 10 mins walk to lake is is ideal. The hotel is spotless and the pools and spa are the best we have ever used in all our travels, temperatures are spot on. The rooms are large and well appointed but in this day and age they should really have USB chargers in them, we were in room 223b and to be honest it was not worth the Aqua upgrade as it had a large tree in front of the balcony that obscured most of the view. Most of the other rooms though did not appear to have this problem. Also on that room the balcony cladding had not been completed very well on the reveals allowing a bird to nest in the corner, this made for quite a few droppings which the maids some days neglected to clean. Breakfast was more than adequate but at busy times because they only had one toaster and egg station it could mean a bit of a wait|The hotel I would not say has a holiday vibe, and seems more applicable to short stays and coperate functions, the bar was always empty but I must say the prices were very reasonable. This should not distract as Bardolino is stunning and packed full of bars|Would I recommend this hotel, a big yes

The Aqualux is a modern functional hotel on the outskirts of Bardolino. It is about a 10 to 15 minute walk to the old town and ferries. |On arrival at the hotel it is a bit bewildering- all information is on QR codes and as it has strong eco credentials you have 4 different rubbish bins in a drawer on the room. Bathroom is good with a good power shower. |Rooms are spacious and modern and quiet. Our room was on the 2nd floor and over the car park but did have lake glimpses in the distance. It was also a long way from reception and the restaurant so you get your steps up! |Breakfast is a major operation with lots of people vying for the popular egg station and ‘real’ coffee bar. The selection is good but it is a massive self service operation. |Overall it is a modern 4 star hotel which is relaxed and friendly and has excellent pools and spa. It is a bit at odds with the old world feeling of the lakes

The staff in the hotel are very friendly and helpful. The young bar man at the pool spoke excellent English and helped me with my, not so excellent, Italian. The lifeguard was friendly and polite. All the staff at breakfast were genuine, warm and friendly. They went out of their way to talk to my daughter who was practicing her Italian. The housekeeping staff always said hello and the rooms were clean and we had a nice view of the pool. The pools were great and we spent a lot of time there. ||The receptionist was very helpful and gave us good advice for our visit to Gardaland. ||There is a short walk to the Lake and the views from the many bars and restaurants are wonderful. We got the ferry one day and went to Garda and then walked back. It is a great idea for visit and very child and dog friendly.

Stayed for 10 days in June. Pools were incredible and plenty of sun loungers for guests. Spa was lovely and massage was amazing. Breakfast was incredible — the best hotel breakfast I’ve ever had. Reception staff very polite and helpful. Location is brilliant — close enough to town but not too noisy. The grounds are beautiful and well-kept. Only had Bed & Breakfast but paid for BBQ night and ‘Grand Buffet’. Great selection and high-quality food. Went for a pool view room. Was spacious, clean and well-maintained. Only improvement would be the air conditioning (not strong enough) and the shower (very hot and cold).

We chose this hotel from several our tour operator offered, and were slightly concerned that it might be too far from the lake. However, it proved to be just an easy 5 minute walk. We were pleased to find that the facilities on offer were excellent, especially the many pools and spas. The hotel was busy but managed to maintain a quiet ambiance, with plenty of quiet spaces to relax. The breakfast was excellent and the staff friendly and attentive at all times. There were a few small signs of wear beginning to show, but very minor and nothing that detracted from the overall experience. For couples and families alike, we’d recommend this hotel.

We had a wonderful 6 days relaxing here after a few days sightseeing in Rome. We were surprised and delighted to be upgraded to garden suite rooms and it was a lovely touch to receive a bottle of prosecco as I was celebrating a big birthday! The rooms were lovely and spacious and close to the pool. The only downside side was they didn't get any sun on the terrace during the day but this didn't matter too much as there was always somewhere by the pool. The pools are amazing we all loved the lazy river and bubbles and jets. Our teenagers spent a lot of time in the pools. Breakfast was really good as was dinner. Special mention to Silvano who made sure I knew what I could and couldn't eat due to a nut allergy. The menu in the evening was quite limited and our daughter struggled a bit - she is autistic and likes things quite simple but the chef prepared plain pasta which she loves without any fuss at all! We wandered into Bardolino a few times which is beautiful. We would definitely stay at Aqualux again we felt very relaxed and refreshed after our visit and everything is ok the highest standards. Thank you again for making us feel extra special!
