Location & what to see

Hotel Bonotto is located in the center of Desenzano del Garda, the liveliest town on the Brescia shore of the lake, in a pedestrian area where the historic urban fabric blends with bars, shops and the lakeside promenade. Desenzano Castle, with its panoramic tower, is just 450 meters away, while the Giardini Marinai d’Italia can be reached on foot in under ten minutes.

Desenzanino beach is about 300 meters away, and the Desenzano del Garda-Sirmione railway station, on the Milan-Venice line, is 1.3 km away, convenient for those arriving without a car. Verona-Villafranca Airport is 27 km away, and Bergamo-Orio al Serio Airport is 66 km away. The center of Sirmione, with the Scaligero Castle and the Grottoes of Catullus, is about 6 km away, while the Tower of San Martino della Battaglia is 7 km away.

The central location allows guests to leave the car in the garage and explore the town on foot, among restaurants, ice cream shops and the fishermen’s harbor.
