Room types

The layout of the rooms favours natural light and outward views, with different solutions from room to room.

Location & what to see

Hotel Grifone is located in the pedestrian heart of Sirmione, on the peninsula overlooking Lake Garda, a few steps from the 13th-century Rocca Scaligera and the lakeside promenade. The area is among the liveliest in the historic centre, with cobbled alleys, shops and restaurants concentrated just a few dozen metres from the property’s entrance, such as Il Grifone and Il Guelfo, both just 10 metres away.

Sirmione’s public beach is about 100 metres away, while the Grottoes of Catullus, a Roman archaeological site overlooking the lake, can be reached with a walk of about 950 metres. The Desenzano del Garda-Sirmione and San Martino della Battaglia railway stations are both about 6 km away, convenient for those arriving by train. Verona-Villafranca Airport is 22 km away, also reachable via the hotel’s airport shuttle, available on request for an extra charge.

Beyond the historic centre, Sirmione offers the Terme di Sirmione, among the most renowned spas in northern Italy, and several boarding points for boat excursions on Lake Garda, particularly popular in spring and summer. The Parco della Rimembranza, about 650 metres away, is a peaceful spot for a walk away from the crowds of the centre. In winter, the town becomes quieter, ideal for those seeking a relaxing stay away from the summer tourist flow, while in the warmer months the lake’s beaches, such as Lido delle Bionde 550 metres away, become the main gathering spot.
