The five rooms at Hotel Unico by Dori share the same 17-square-metre size and the same setup: air conditioning, private bathroom with shower or bathtub, flat-screen TV, coffee machine and minibar, designed for stays for up to two people.
The main differences lie in the view and a few distinctive details: the Economy Double Room is the simplest option, with no balcony, while the Deluxe with Balcony and the Standard rooms add an outdoor space, the latter with a garden view. The King Room with Lake View stands out for its view of Lake Garda and the pool, ideal for those who want to wake up to a different outlook than the other rooms. The Double Room with Spa Bath, on the other hand, is the only one offering a bathtub instead of just a shower, perfect for a relaxing stay.
The Economy Double Room is the simplest room type at Hotel Unico by Dori, with no balcony but all the essential comforts: air conditioning, flat-screen TV, minibar and coffee machine, over 17 square metres for up to two guests. The private bathroom features a bidet, ideal for those looking for a practical and affordable option for their stay on the lake.
Compared to the Economy room, the Deluxe Double Room with Balcony adds a private balcony overlooking a quiet street, ideal for those who want an extra outdoor space. This room is also 17 square metres, with air conditioning, minibar, coffee machine and private bathroom with shower, for up to two guests.
The Standard Double Room offers a balcony with garden view, a feature that sets it apart from the Deluxe room overlooking the street. Covering 17 square metres, it has air conditioning, minibar, coffee machine and private bathroom with shower, for up to two guests seeking greenery and quiet.
The King Room with Lake View is the only room to offer a balcony overlooking Lake Garda and the pool, an advantage that makes it the preferred choice for those seeking a view. This room is also 17 square metres, with air conditioning, minibar, coffee machine and private bathroom with shower, for two guests.
The Double Room with Spa Bath is the only room type in the hotel featuring a bathtub in addition to the shower, with garden view and a private bathroom with bidet. Covering 17 square metres, it also includes air conditioning, flat-screen TV, minibar and coffee machine, for a relaxing stay for up to two people.
Hotel Unico by Dori offers guests a seasonal outdoor pool, a garden and a private beach area with towels and umbrellas, as well as sun loungers and deck chairs to enjoy the days on Lake Garda.

The on-site bar serves wine and champagne, while the restaurant serves Italian dishes with special diet menus available on request and breakfast also available in the room.

Hotel Unico by Dori is located on Via Benaco, in the liveliest and busiest area of Sirmione, just steps from the Lake Garda promenade. The Lido Galeazzi is only 500 metres away, while Brema Beach Sirmione can be reached in under ten minutes on foot, at a distance of 550 metres; the area is dotted with beach clubs, gelaterias and evening venues, with the Liquid Bar about one kilometre away. For dinner, Ristorante Tancredi is just 150 metres away, followed by Ristorante Casa dei Pescatori at 250 metres and Rivellino at 350 metres, all convenient for an evening of lake fish without needing a car.
Sirmione’s historic centre, dominated by the Sirmione Castle – Rocca Scaligera, can be reached in about 1.7 km on foot along the peninsula that stretches into Lake Garda; a little further on, at 2.7 km, are the Grottoes of Catullus, the remains of a Roman villa with panoramic views over the lake. For those arriving without a car, Desenzano del Garda-Sirmione station is about 5 km away, while Verona-Villafranca Airport, the closest, is 22 km away; Bergamo-Orio al Serio and Parma airports remain more distant options, useful mainly for those arriving on low-cost flights.
In summer, life revolves around swimming in Lake Garda, pedal boat rentals and evening walks along the promenade to the historic centre; the hotel itself has a seasonal outdoor pool and a private beach area for those who prefer to stay on site. In spring and autumn, with milder temperatures, it’s worth spending time visiting the Scaligero Castle and the Grottoes of Catullus, or heading to the Parco della Rimembranza, at 2.3 km, or the centre of Desenzano del Garda, on the other side of the lake. The central location makes it easy to get around on foot, while the hotel’s free private parking remains an advantage for those arriving by car who still want to explore the area independently.
