We just returned from nearly a month in Italy which meant staying in multiple hotels, agriturismo…read morefarms, B&Bs and a medieval town. Hands down, we would put Locanda San Vigilio at the top of our favorite places to stay AND eat. The hotel has been in the same family for over 500 years, always a hotel and if our experience is evidence of the hospitality, always wonderful. The location could not be better as it is perched on a point, surrounded by water on three sides, on Lake Garda. Beautiful. The service is impeccable. We were greeted by the current owner/manager who welcomed us in the parking lot and escorted us to reception where all details were handled with efficiency and a smile. It made no difference who we encountered the interaction was always friendly. Imagine the best meal you have ever enjoyed, now double it. That was our experience in the restaurant.

We are on a bottom floor overlooking the parking lot. My husband complained and the said there is a mountain way up in the background. This is like a holiday inn at best. There is an indoor pool and a beautiful outdoor pool but the room is very disappointing for $300 Euro per night. The pool and grounds are beautiful and the complimentary breakfast was good. The servers have an attitude and make you feel like "how dare you ask for a cappuccino?". The bartender William was awesome though. Most of the front desk personnel were not so friendly if you needed assistance. I forgot to mention if you need sunscreen, a regular size tube is a whopping 40 euros.....they know how to get you. All in all Bardolino was lovely and the hotel had good and bad parts. For the rate per night, there are better choices.
