Hotel Derby is a 3-star family-run hotel located in Sirmione, in Lombardy, on the shore of Lake Garda, about 300 meters from the public beach and 600 meters from Lido Laguna.
The property is designed for those seeking a simple, well-kept stay close to the water: the rooms, all with balcony, air conditioning and private bathroom, in some cases offer lake views and are equipped with flat-screen TV and satellite channels. On the ground floor is the breakfast room with a veranda overlooking the garden, an ideal gathering point to start the day before heading to the shore or Sirmione’s historic center.
The hotel offers free private parking, albeit with limited spaces, and free WiFi throughout the property. The location is particularly appreciated by couples, who rate it 9.3 for a trip for two, thanks to its proximity to beaches, restaurants and the Virgilio Spa, reachable in about one kilometer on foot.

Hotel Derby offers three room types, all sharing a balcony, air conditioning, private bathroom and TV with satellite channels, ensuring consistent standards across every option. The main difference lies in size and capacity: from the larger Double Room with Balcony, at 15 sqm, suited to those wanting more space and sometimes a lake view, to the more compact Small version with Balcony, up to the Single Room designed for solo travelers.
Every room comes with free WiFi and benefits from the quiet of the property, which is located in a building without an elevator. The rooms are ideal for short or extended stays on Lake Garda, offering a balance between functionality and the personal touch typical of family-run management.
The largest room in the property, with 15 sqm of space and a private balcony from which Lake Garda can sometimes be seen. Featuring air conditioning, satellite TV and a private bathroom, it’s the ideal choice for those wanting more space during their stay.
A more compact version of the double room, at 12 sqm with the same balcony and private bathroom as the other double rooms. A practical option for those seeking a cozy setting without giving up air conditioning and satellite flat-screen TV.
The only room in the property designed for a single guest, with 10 sqm, a single bed and its own balcony. Rounded out by a private bathroom, air conditioning and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, for those traveling alone.
Hotel Derby offers free parking and free WiFi throughout the property, two services much appreciated by guests arriving by car and wishing to stay connected during their stay on Lake Garda. Outside there are a garden and a terrace, useful spaces to enjoy the area’s mild climate, while inside a small bar is available for a coffee or an aperitif without leaving the property.
The rooms are equipped with air conditioning, balcony and flat-screen TV with satellite channels, while the private bathrooms include shower or bathtub, hairdryer and complimentary bath products. The property also provides luggage storage and a safe, useful for those traveling with bulky luggage or valuables.
The entirely non-smoking environment is run with family care, a detail that guests say is reflected in the upkeep of the common areas and the helpfulness of the staff.
Hotel Derby is located in the Lugana di Sirmione area, a residential neighborhood just steps from the shore of Lake Garda, away from the traffic of the historic center but easy to reach on foot or by bicycle. The public beach is just 300 meters away, while Lido Laguna is about 600 meters away: two landmarks for those who want to enjoy the lake without moving by car.
For those arriving from outside, the nearest railway station is San Martino della Battaglia, 3.2 km away, followed by Desenzano del Garda-Sirmione at 6 km, while Verona-Villafranca Airport is about 20 km away, convenient for those traveling to the lake by plane. Within a few hundred meters are also restaurants such as Il Ciclone and La Lisca, both about 100 meters away, ideal for a traditional local dinner.
The area is perfect for those who want to alternate relaxation and cultural visits: Sirmione Castle – Rocca Scaligera, 3.4 km away, and the Caves of Catullus, 4.5 km away, are among the area’s most visited destinations, while Sigurtà Garden Park, 14 km away, offers a full day among blooms and green paths. In summer, the proximity to the beaches makes the area particularly lively, while in the cooler months walks along the lake and visits to the World War I historic sites around San Martino della Battaglia prevail.
Guests particularly praise the staff, rated 9.9, and the value for money at 9.6, followed by cleanliness at 9.5. The location is also highly appreciated, at 9.2, while services and WiFi remain at solid but slightly more modest ratings compared to the other parameters.
