The property will be located on the banks of Northern Italy's Lake Garda, famed for its crystal-clear waters, and will offer guests panoramic views of the picturesque lake and surrounding mountains.
Upon the completion of an ambitious renovation, a majority of the hotel's high-ceilinged guest rooms will offer resplendent lake views which can be enjoyed from private balconies.

The hotel has been a key landmark on the lakefront since 1884, welcoming many cultural icons throughout its history. Gardone and nearby Salò offer guests cultural attractions including a number of charming local restaurants, bars and shops, as well as a ferry port for guests to take boat rides across the lake.
