Plan your stay at Hotel Villa Giulia

A historic villa on the shores of Lake Garda in Gargnano, with a private beach, pool and spa: an elegant retreat among gardens and lake views for romantic stays.

Room types

The rooms at Hotel Villa Giulia are spread between the main villa and two annexes in the garden, ranging from 18 to 72 square metres and configured for both couples and small groups. All room types feature air conditioning, a flat-screen satellite TV, minibar and private bathroom, while many offer lake views or garden views, and some feature a bathtub, balcony or panoramic terrace.
