I booked lakeside rooms for the view. The rooms themselves were modern/corporate where functionality beats aesthetics. The bed was very comfortable. We dined at the hotel in the evening and had a reasonable meal with decent service. Nothing special, just OK. The breakfast (included) was one of the best we experience on our 10 day driving holiday. This was a middle of the road hotel for us, ranking 4th out of the 10 we visited on our tour.

What a wonderful little find this was, very helpful staff, always smiling in this wonderful clean hotel which is within walking distance to the centre and docks. We loved our stay here, the kids loved the pool and we all loved the food. Close enough to walk in the heat of summer to the centre but not too close that I was relaxing in the evening. Rooms were perfect, everything we needed. Thank you Hotel Estee for a wonderful stay!

Beautiful location

The Hotel Estee is in a wonderful location overlooking Lake Garda and the mountains. It is a short walk from the centre of Desenzano but far enough to away from any late night noise from bars and restaurants. The reception staff were all wonderful- helpful, informative and always very welcoming. There was a very good hot and cold breakfast buffet selection and the restaurant had views of the lake. The rooms were comfortable and tastefully decorated. Tv had a few channels in English and the safe had a basic key operation. There was a unit for effective air conditioning. The bathroom had a large wash basin, bidet and all the fittings had ornate edging. there was a nice pool area with sunloungers. All in all very good.

We stayed for 4 nights on a road trip in Italy. The check was easy and quick and we got room 20 on the second floor. Partial Lake view. Overall the room was fine. A little dated and showing signs of wear and tear. The third bed in the family room is very short. Our daughter is 5’6 and barely fitted with her legs bent. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good and cappuccinos were free flowing. Overall a good stay but the hotel would benefit from some updating.

Beautiful older property on Lake Garda.. Room with a balcony view of the Lake. The bed was comfortable, air conditioning worked well, bathroom was well maintained! Loved this hotel for convenience to ferry and train station. Quaint little Italian town with fabulous restaurants and shops, fabulous promenade to walk along the lake to other towns on Lake Garda.

Not a representative of a conventional four 4 star

It’s not always constructive to leave negative reviews however, it’s important to highlight that this hotel is not what I would consider 4 stars and consequently I considered this rating to be misleading having recently spent three nights in the hotel. Positives: close proximity to Desenzano town centre, sits on the lake and friendly staff (reception and bar). Shortcomings: dated interior, cleanliness (flies on window sills).

Great stay! Can't wait to go back

Would stay here again! Visited for a week because my aon had a race at South Garda track. This hotel is right on the lake, walking distance to everything. Grab a ferry to the other towns on the lake for some adventures. On site restaurant was amazing, great local wine selections. Breakfast was great. Every staff member was so friendly and helpful and didnt laugh when my italian wasn't spot on. Shower was hot and the pressure was good. My only complaint is that the bed is not the comfiest and it took me a whole day to figure out how to turn the AC on. And whatever you do, dont open the windows at night.
