Hotel Angelini We stayed for a week at the end of June. The hotel is situated at the one end of Torbole, on the main road, next door to a Lidl store and in front of a camp site. Access to Torbole centre is a pleasent 10 minute walk taking the waterfront path. As the hotel is at one end of Torbole it also makes it very convenient for walking into Riva. A 20 minute easy walk will get you to the earliest beach location in Riva. To reach the centre of Riva (old town) following a very picturesque path along the coast line will take you 30/35 minutes from the hotel. All in all we found the location brilliant. The hotel itself is three star. It’s a small hotel, small bar and bar seating at entrance (no specific evening entertainment) which leads onto the dining area (around 20 dining tables), which leads onto the pool area. The hotel is more a traditional decor hotel, no bells or whistles but very clean and with a certain charm. The bedroom we stayed was recently renovated so was more modern in its decor with an older traditional bathroom. Our room was on the second floor, which is the top floor for guests. There is a third floor which presumably is the accommodation for the owners. We had a lake front balcony. Great views of the lake beyond the neighbouring campsite. The campsite was very busy yet we never heard any loud noises from the campsite, it too looked very pleasant and peaceful. Our room had good air conditioning and was cleaned on a daily basis. The room has a TV (we found only one English speaking news channel), a safe, plenty of storage space, very comfortable beds (twins pushed together) however no tea/coffee making facilities. This would be the only improvement we could recommend. All in all very impressive room and very clean! The pool was of a decent size with plenty of beds and parasols. We only stayed by the pool for two days and on each day I would say the pool was quiet. Certainly no issues with finding a spot in the sun or shade depending your preference. Our stay was half board so we had breakfast and dinner. Breakfast was self serving, the choice was plentiful. Typically we went for the scrambled eggs and bacon with toast. Cereal with yogurt, fruit, nuts, seeds & fruit conserve plus patisserie’s. Also available were hard boiled eggs, cold meats, cheese, good choice of cakes & flans. Tea (lots of flavour choices), coffee & juices are also self serving. We always treated ourselves to a hearty breakfast, not just because we were on holiday but also to set ourselves up for the day. On your breakfast table you will have a small clipboard asking you to choose your dinner for the evening. All in all we found breakfast excellent. Brilliant choice, fresh and warm. Dinner was table service. You have a choice of three starters and three mains, as mentioned these are chosen earlier at breakfast. Once again we found the choices brilliant. Starters were generally soup, pasta, rice dish etc always with a side salad. Mains were generally a meat dish, fish dish and one vegetable dish. We had swordfish, sea bass twice, salmon, pork, roast chicken. Both starters and main dishes always arrived hot. Portions were not large however bread rolls are available to top up if needed. Desserts were not pre booked or on menu, but verbally offered after your meal. We had Crème Brûlée, Tiramisu, Panna Cotta, Apple Strudel and Ice Cream with fruit and sauces. We often had to choose a dish that would not be a usual choice for us but, in hindsight, that was a blessing. All in all we found the food excellent, very tasty! Professionally cooked traditional Italian food. Compliments to the chef. The staff. Honestly couldn’t praise them enough. From start to finish they were all very attentive, very professional and respectful with a wonderful Italian humour. Special mention to Simone & Marie-Jeanne. Thank you for making our stay so memorable. To sum up our experience we would say the hotel offers excellent value for money on a half board basis. It’s a peaceful environment, small but friendly. We would definitely recommend it and certainly stay again.

We stayed at the Hotel Angelini in Torbole for the second week of July. We had two separate rooms and both rooms had fantastic air con at no extra charge. Both rooms had balconies and the beds were super comfy. We stayed half board and the breakfasts and dinners were superb with loads of choice and variety. The evening meals were great quality and everything was served hot. Drinks were also very reasonably priced. Our waiter, Simon, deserves a very special mention as he was polite, courteous, always pleasant and remembered our favourite desserts. The hotel is run by a lovely family who always went the extra mile to help with any questions. Plenty of sunbeds around the pool and of course a Lidl store right next door for snacks. The lake side and promenade is a 5 minute walk away from the hotel with a bus stop right across the road.I We absolutely recommend this hotel and if we are ever heading to North Italy in the future we would certainly stay at the Angelini again.

My wife and I have just returned from a holiday in Torbole, Lake Garda. The holiday ranks high on our list of the best holidays we have experienced. We stayed at the Hotel Angelini in Torbole and had a very good experience there. The hotel is family owned and run and it is obvious that the family take pride in their hotel. The rooms and communal areas are kept spotlessly clean and all the staff were genuinely pleasant, very helpful and spoke English well. We were made to feel welcome and valued. We really enjoyed the food, which was authentically Italian and very tasty. The pool area and pool was never crowded and we were always able to find loungers. The hotel is located in a beautiful area, surrounded by mountains and a short 15 min walk down to the lake front. It is close to the road but the rooms are very well sound insulated. This is a special, friendly, homely hotel and we hope to return to it in the future.

Great location near town centre and a short stroll to Lake Garda.Very friendly staff especially Guido the manager who had time for all the guests and liked to have a joke with all.Good selection available for breakfast and your four course evening meal was ordered then(choice of three meals available).Evening meal is table service and staff all spoke good english which is great when ordering Italian food. Portions are on the small side but dont forget its four courses so adequate for most people.Hotel is basic but clean,reasonable prices in the bar and a lovely pool area at rear.Request a pool view room as there is spectular views of the mountains from your balcony.
