About the location
Italy’s largest lake (its vast size will impress even the hard-to-please) is a vision of deep-blue waters and grey-green mountains. Impossibly pretty villages line its edges, each with its own individual look and feel. At the northern tip of the lake is sporty Riva del Garda, famous for its windsurfing. Skirt down the east coast and you’ll soon hit Malcesine, home to a medieval castle. Carry on south and you’ll reach wine-loving Bardolino, famous for its vineyards and delicious rosé. Sirmione marks the southern point of the lake – here, you’ll find natural thermal baths and a waterfront castle. Up on the west coast is lovely Limone, which sprawls around a truly scenic harbour. Exploring is easy – ferries chug all around the lake, and there are regular bus routes travelling up and down the coast.

About 15 minutes walk south of Bardolino, on the East Coast of Lake Garda, this hotel occupies a lovely position in Northern Italy. There are 3 outside pools: Paddling; Treatment; & Leisure. The food is excellent & the staff couldn't be friendlier. The room was spotless, usually I prefer a sea/lake view but the lake view rooms face west & could be a bit too hot in the evening for my liking.

I had thought of entitling this review ???This hotel should come with a health warning???, but decided this would create the totally wrong impression. But the hotel is highly addictive (our third stay) and the food so good that our waistlines suffered so you can understand why the temptation of the title. But more seriously this is an excellent hotel - superb staff, excellent food, good wine list, comfortable rooms, and right next to Lake Garda. It???s hard to beat. I am sure I have said much the same in previous reviews but two new points - the great care the staff take of both their young and disabled guests. It was very noticeable how attentive they were.

We stayed in a suite at the hotel and had a balcony overlooking the outside area , There were 5 outdoor swimming pools and plenty of sunbeds available. The hotel is a spa complex and there were also 2 large indoor pools and Jacuzzi and saunas. We had excellent weather throughout our stay but the hotel has ideal facilities in the event of poor weather. The hotel is situated about 20 minutes walk from the centre of Bardolino. In the other direction the hamlet of Cezanne is about 5 minutes walk and the town of Lazise is about 20 minutes walk further on. Regarding the hotel the breakfast and evening meals were excellent and very friendly waiter staff,

We have been going to the Caesius hotel since 2002.When it was the original building entering from main road. It is simply the Best. The food this year again was superb. I have a dietary need and it is never a problem for them as they always offer me a choice.
All the staff are very friendly .Filippo always smiling. The rooms are spacious, light and bright. We have recommended the hotel to lots of friends and they have all been very impressed.

If you are considering this hotel and you want a quiet and super relaxing holiday then BOOK IT!
We have just returned from 10 days at the Caesius, and really did have a fantastic time.
The location is great, just across the road from the lake. The promenade takes you to Bardolino, just 15mins walk to the right and Lazise about 30mins to the left. You can hire bikes from the hotel for a small charge. There are a number of bars and restaurants within walking distance, overlooking the lake.
The hotel itself has all the amenities that you could want. The pool areas are well maintained and there are plenty of loungers and umbrellas to go around. You do not need to get up at the crack of dawn to reserve one! There is an indoor pool and spa area.
The food is really very good. Breakfast is an extensive buffet, you can also order coffees and omelettes from the waiting staff. The evening meal is a 5 course extravaganza! The salad/bread is help yourself as is the dessert, the others are served to you after you have chosen from the menu. There can be a bit of a wait at times.
The rooms are spacious and have tea and coffee making facilities, robe and slippers are provided as are pool towels and a beach bag to use while you are there.
This is not a hotel that has a lot of entertainment, there were a few evenings with a singer or two, but otherwise very quiet. If the walk to the town is too far for you, a small shuttle bus is provided, do remember to book this at reception.
All of the staff we encountered were friendly, approachable and professional.
All in all a fab hotel in a great location with all the facilities you could want.
