Arriving in Sirmione
Hotel Giardino is 24.6 km from Verona Airport (VRN). The nearest intercity station is Desenzano del Garda-Sirmione, about 6.3 km away. Italian cities charge a tourist tax (tassa di soggiorno) per person per night, collected by the property rather than included in the booking total; the rate depends on the city and the property's star rating, and many properties still take it in cash.
Across 1,426 reviews, guests rate the hotel 4.2/5. The three themes that come up most consistently are location — Sirmione's peninsula and its attractions are close at hand — staff responsiveness, and the general cleanliness of the property. Breakfast earns a 'very good' rating from the hotel's own classification.
