We stayed at the Savoy Palace for 5 x nights and we really enjoyed this hotel! The location is superb, right on the front with a view of the lake, and some fantastic restaurants outside the doorstep, and a ferry dock to travel to other parts of the lake. We had a lake view room with a large terrace and it was really big, beautifully traditionally decorated, with a mini bar, and it was cleaned everyday by the really lovely cleaning ladies who did a great job. The bar is great and has a panoramic roof terrace which was beautiful to watch the sunset. The bar man Massimo was outstanding, he treated us like royalty and made beautiful cocktails. We loved him and he made this hotel very special - he is a huge asset to this hotel. There was fantastic live entertainment one evening of a singer/guitarist on the terrace which was really excellent and we really enjoyed this. We used the hotel restaurant for breakfast which was a delicious buffet selection of cooked or continental, with fresh fruit, yoghurts, sausages, bacon, cheeses, eggs etc. We sat outside on the restaurant terrace every day which was lovely and they made beautiful late macchiatos and cappuccinos for us. The restaurant staff were delightful and friendly and really looked after us. We didn’t eat lunch or dinner in the restaurant so can’t comment on this as we opted for B&B only. The pool area is a nice addition to the hotel for you to take a break from sightseeing and would like to relax and go for a swim. Plenty of sunbeds and the pool is a nice size, we enjoyed sitting here a couple of hours a day. The reception staff are extremely helpful and spent a great deal of time explaining the hotel to us and nothing was too much trouble. We felt so welcomed by them on arrival which gave a great first impression to us - this really matters. We had a massage in the on-site spa area which was excellent. The Wifi worked perfectly which is really important to us. Right around the corner is a brilliant beach bar called Rimbalzello where you can swim in the lake which was really fun. We used the ferry to travel to other towns and it was excellent I really would recommend this, and we also hired a car and drove one day which was a lovely scenic drive. My only points where they could improve would be to have a waiter periodically come around the pool to offer drinks to people, as it is nice to a have cocktail or just a normal drink whilst laid around the pool if they could offer this service it would be a nice touch. Overall the staff at this hotel are wonderful and everyone seems very happy to work here so it’s a great hotel. We loved this hotel and would definitely come back! Thank you for a lovely stay.
