Ruhiger Ausgangspunkt für das westliche Gardaseeufer
Pros:

Wunderbare Lage weg von der lauten Gardesana, mit schönem Garten und Pool. Gutes Frühstücksbuffet auf der Terrasse, teilweise mit Seeblick.
Ausreichend Parkplätze auf dem Hotelgrundstück. Freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Gardone und Riviera am See zu Fuss gut erreichbar.
Die Villa hat Charme.

Cons:

Das Badezimmer ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen.

Pros:

The staff was very nice, the rooms were very comfortable, the property was beautiful.

Cons:

We had two rooms in the three nights we spent at Villa Sofia. The second room was very dark. I did not like the automatic lights in the room because you disturb your roommate if he is sleeping

Mediocre per un 4 stelle
Pros:

Il posto è molto bello e conveniente per raggiungere a piedi il Vittoriale. Il parcheggio interno è molto comodo.

Cons:

La camera era nella dependance al di fuori della struttura raggiungibile tramite scale esterne con vegetazione che andava un po’ curata. La stanza era mediocre e il soffitto pieno di ragnatele. Nel bagno una vasca adibita a doccia, pericolosa perché si rischiava di scivolare. Per un hotel a 4 stelle da €200 a notte mi aspettavo molto di più.

A nice hotel with a nice atmosphere
Pros:

Beautiful hotel in a quiet yet central location between the lake and the old town. Friendly staff. Great breakfast. Easy to park. Nice pool and rooftop terrace. All in all a good experience.

Cons:

The room that I stayed in was nice and clean yet a bit dated.

Delighted to be back - great to see many of the staff remain - delightful
Pros:

A fabulous location, but more important great staff - more like family - if you have walking issues you may want to rethink this location as its in-between upper and lower Gardone and the land is quite hilly - saying that its beautiful - Breakfast - maybe one or two more articles for choice but good variety on offer.

Cons:

We have been coming to the hotel for many decades it seems and have seen the improvements over the years - however, they have slowed down whilst the price continues to increase - of course this is the way things work - but with a new hotel due to open soon - I hope the Sofia can do enough to attract the guests it deserves. The staff can do no more - they are off the scale - owners maybe need to look at some upgrades - Better TV , internet sockets in rooms - showers replaced as the shower curtain ends up marrying you all the time - still a great and wonderful place -

Stupendo hotel vista lago
Pros:

Hotel molto bello, camere grandi e spaziose, bagno con doppi lavabi e vasca, prodotti per l'igiene personale, colazione varia e abbondante sia dolce che salata, ottima posizione con vista lago!!
Staff gentile e cordiale!!
Rapporto qualità prezzo giusto per tutto quello che offre, come piscina, solarium, vasca idromassaggio e Spa!!
Ottima posizione per eventi che si svolgono al Vittoriale, davvero a 5 minuti a piedi dall'albergo!!

Cons:

Nelle camere della dependance sarebbe bello avere le finestre a ribalta in modo da poterle tenere aperte senza preoccuparsi che qualcuno possa entrare da fuori visto che sono praticamente nel giardino
