It’s not always constructive to leave negative reviews however, it’s important to highlight that this hotel is not what I would consider 4 stars and consequently I considered this rating to be misleading having recently spent three nights in the hotel. Positives: close proximity to Desenzano town centre, sits on the lake and friendly staff (reception and bar). Shortcomings: dated interior, cleanliness (flies on window sills).

Very friendly staff and great size room. Impeccably clean with unbeatable view. Walking distance to train station and center of town.

Estee Hotel was clean with great location and fantastic view of the lake. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend this hotel.

Would stay here again! Visited for a week because my aon had a race at South Garda track. This hotel is right on the lake, walking distance to everything. Grab a ferry to the other towns on the lake for some adventures. On site restaurant was amazing, great local wine selections. Breakfast was great. Every staff member was so friendly and helpful and didnt laugh when my italian wasn't spot on. Shower was hot and the pressure was good. My only complaint is that the bed is not the comfiest and it took me a whole day to figure out how to turn the AC on. And whatever you do, dont open the windows at night.

Booked a lake view room which was excellent. Great location 200m from bars & restaurants. Lovely pool and sunlounge area Breakfast great and very friendly staff

AVOID AT ALL COSTS! ant infestations in all the rooms. We got moved to another room (after first blaming us for eating in the room which we did not) to then find second room full of ants. We arrived at the 3rd room and seemed ok until a day later and ants again. The lady on the reception desk was apologetic and nice but the owner he was arrogant and rude & made my daughter cry as he was shouting at me. The pool was also freezing

The Hotel Estee is in a wonderful location overlooking Lake Garda and the mountains. It is a short walk from the centre of Desenzano but far enough to away from any late night noise from bars and restaurants. The reception staff were all wonderful- helpful, informative and always very welcoming. There was a very good hot and cold breakfast buffet selection and the restaurant had views of the lake. The rooms were comfortable and tastefully decorated. Tv had a few channels in English and the safe had a basic key operation. There was a unit for effective air conditioning. The bathroom had a large wash basin, bidet and all the fittings had ornate edging. there was a nice pool area with sunloungers. All in all very good.

The room was a little beat up and the hotel is a bit rundown. Staff and pool were saving grace

I booked lakeside rooms for the view. The rooms themselves were modern/corporate where functionality beats aesthetics. The bed was very comfortable. We dined at the hotel in the evening and had a reasonable meal with decent service. Nothing special, just OK. The breakfast (included) was one of the best we experience on our 10 day driving holiday. This was a middle of the road hotel for us, ranking 4th out of the 10 we visited on our tour.

Very impressed with this medium size hotel. Staff could not have done any better to make our stay enjoyable. Pool and just by the lake amazing for swimming. Breakfast great choice and good quality. Restaurant food fantastic! Will visit again if in the area.

Beautiful older property on Lake Garda.. Room with a balcony view of the Lake. The bed was comfortable, air conditioning worked well, bathroom was well maintained! Loved this hotel for convenience to ferry and train station. Quaint little Italian town with fabulous restaurants and shops, fabulous promenade to walk along the lake to other towns on Lake Garda.

The staff were very helpful

This must be the closest you can stay to the lake - stunning view from our room and short walk to the pretty town. Staff were helpful and friendly and the breakfast was good. Highly recommend

The staff are always friendly and helpful. The restaurant is very good and there is always plenty to choose from for breakfast. Although the hotel is a bit tired it is clean and very convenient for walking into town and catching the ferry.

Our room not serviced on one occasion. Eventually done at 7pm. View from room was exceptional.

Well located

We stayed for 4 nights on a road trip in Italy. The check was easy and quick and we got room 20 on the second floor. Partial Lake view. Overall the room was fine. A little dated and showing signs of wear and tear. The third bed in the family room is very short. Our daughter is 5’6 and barely fitted with her legs bent. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good and cappuccinos were free flowing. Overall a good stay but the hotel would benefit from some updating.

Perfectly acceptable 3 star hotel on the lake, a bit of a walk in to the middle. It's just not a 4-star property in my experience.

What a wonderful little find this was, very helpful staff, always smiling in this wonderful clean hotel which is within walking distance to the centre and docks. We loved our stay here, the kids loved the pool and we all loved the food. Close enough to walk in the heat of summer to the centre but not too close that I was relaxing in the evening. Rooms were perfect, everything we needed. Thank you Hotel Estee for a wonderful stay!

Property location and stuff was wonderful. Room was equipped with all the necessary amenities, coffee/tea maker's and fridge. Being by the water musty smell exist. I enjoyed breakfast and specially the gentleman from night shifts who made sure, I had my cappuccino and breakfast was ready at 615AM. Grazie mille.
