Hotel Campanello
Lake Garda views with an easy drive to Gardaland
About this hotel
Hotel Campanello sits right on Lake Garda's shore, a genuinely different setting from the theme-park-adjacent resorts closer to Gardaland's gates, with some rooms overlooking the water and a furnished terrace and solarium for evenings by the lake. Air-conditioned rooms come with an LCD TV, minibar and a private bathroom with bathrobes, while free parking includes electric vehicle charging, a practical detail for families driving in from further afield. Breakfast runs during summer and bicycle rental is available for exploring the shoreline, giving the stay a lakeside-holiday rhythm rather than a pure theme-park base. Gardaland itself sits a short, easy drive away, so families get both the park and a genuine lake setting without choosing between them.

Our take
This suits families and couples who want Lake Garda itself, not just Gardaland, to be part of the trip, since the lakefront setting and solarium reward an evening spent by the water rather than back at a resort near the park. It works less well for families wanting to walk straight from their room to the theme park, given the short drive required each day. Book it if the lake view matters as much as the rides.
- ✓Book a lake-view room specifically if that view is the reason you are choosing this hotel, since not all rooms overlook the water.
- ✓Bring or rent a bicycle to explore the shoreline on a rest day, since the hotel offers rental on site.
- ✓Use the free EV charging if driving an electric vehicle, one of the few properties in this cluster to offer it.

Why guests love itWe chose this over the on-site Gardaland resorts specifically for the lake view, and it made evenings feel like a proper holiday rather than a theme-park stopover. The solarium and terrace became our evening spot to decompress after park days, and the short drive to Gardaland each morning was a fair trade for waking up to the lake instead of a hotel parking lot. The free EV charging was an unexpected bonus for our trip down from Germany.
