We agree with the very positive reviews. We had a great time and felt very comfortable. Mr. Simone Mutti, in particular, gave us great recommendations every day with his German skills. The breakfast at the hotel is simply delicious, and our morning coffee is personally prepared. We would love to come back.

This establishment, in addition to its suitable infrastructure and its very friendly and helpful staff, has a location at the very end of the peninsula, which places it in a very quiet environment where you can admire the lake all around you. Superb swimming pool, relaxation areas in the shade of olive and pomegranate trees, bars and restaurants on the terrace or inside, private parking complete the package. Access by vehicle requiring crossing the busy pedestrian town, or complying with a Sunday afternoon traffic ban, reinforces the feeling of being in a privileged, even protected place. The walk is king, in the surrounding parks or towards the lively and commercial part of Sirmione, but which also adds to its charm. We spent a week of relaxation and discovery there, such that we will not hesitate to repeat our visit, as do many guests we met, to the Ideal hotel.

The rooms were very clean. The staff was friendly, accommodating and helpful. Breakfast was superb: varied and tasty. Old Town was just a short 5 minute walk away. While this may not suit everyone, we loved having a peaceful location away from the hectic tourist-filled bustle of the Old Town. The Grottoes of Catullo are also literally on the other side of the street. Hotel Ideal's own private beach was a cherry on top since the public beaches were extremely crowded.
If you want a peaceful retreat right on the doorstep of the Old Town, Hotel Ideal is an excellent choice.

We stayed for two nights last weekend in a room with a stunning lake view and a completely peaceful pool. Thanks to the management for allowing us to use the pool throughout our departure day.

(4-night stay with a child) Very, very good hotel, but mixed reviews. The hotel is great, very well located, absolutely clean, pleasant, very well maintained, superb decor, the rooms are renovated, air-conditioned, and the staff is generally very friendly. I think we had one of the two best rooms in the hotel in terms of the view, both of the lake and the ruins, fantastic!
>>We had a difficult arrival after a 950 km drive: "pedestrian day" in the city (the hotel managed the ZTL very well for us) (ZTL is closed to traffic between 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. for "pedestrian days"), we had to wait until 8 p.m. to enter the ZTL, crossing the island with pedestrians who didn't want to give way, the person at reception that evening didn't explain anything to us, no introduction to the hotel, no restaurant hours (morning/lunch/evening), we didn't get the right person, he wasn't representative of the staff.
The room is very good, but suffers from the hotel's old design: rather small shower, noisy air conditioning, no air conditioning in the bathroom, no coffee or tea making facilities, very hard bedding, no privacy on the 3rd-floor balcony (no privacy screen, worse, a simple gate that can be opened for fire safety reasons). The room is clearly not worth the 4-star rating compared to the 4-star hotels I've stayed in recently (and the ultimate design flaw: be careful not to lock yourself out on the balcony!!!!!!!!). The hotel overall, yes, because it feels good, the restaurant is good, the staff is very friendly, and most of them speak English (special mention to the young man at reception who speaks very good French!).
Overall, I recommend this hotel, and I would happily return. I'd like to emphasize the quality of the staff, who smoothed out the minor negatives :)
(Thank you to the kind lady who served me the multiple double espressos in the morning :) )

We had a beautiful spritz here after a long walk to Jamaica Beach. The views are fantastic and service was very friendly. Nice and quiet too.

The hotel is located in a scenic spot near the Grottoes of Catullus and the historic center. Clean and welcoming, the staff are extremely kind and helpful. Simone is impeccable; he even solved a problem we had with our car. A great weekend, highly recommended!

Helpful and very kind staff, perfect and quiet location with the possibility of accessing the more chaotic Jamaica beach or a small private beach of the hotel immersed in nothingness!!
