Plan your stay at Velòra

Three-star hotel surrounded by a palm garden in Riva del Garda, a short walk from the lake shore, with pool, panoramic bar overlooking the Alps and air-conditioned rooms.

Room types

Velòra’s range of rooms spans from compact rooms to larger units with their own kitchen, designed for both short stays and families or groups staying longer. All rooms are air-conditioned, equipped with a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with hairdryer and toiletries; several room types share the option of a large double bed or two separate single beds, a choice to be communicated at the time of booking.

What sets the room types apart is the floor space, ranging from 17 m² for the simpler rooms to 55 m² for the apartments, and the views: some rooms open onto a balcony with a lake or mountain view, others look onto the inner courtyard. The Classic apartments add a fully equipped kitchen and a separate living room, while the Deluxe Room offers more generous space with a shower and bidet in the private bathroom, ideal for those seeking greater comfort without giving up proximity to the lake.

Location & what to see

Velòra is located in Riva del Garda, on the northern shore of Lake Garda, in a residential area a short walk from the water and the town centre. The palm garden surrounding the property and the proximity to the town beaches give it a seaside-like character, while still being within walking distance of the shops, ice cream parlours and pizzerias of the centre.

Spiaggia dei Pini is just 100 metres away, while Spiaggia Sabbioni can be reached in about 350 metres; the historic centre with the MAG Alto Garda Museum is just over a kilometre away, an easy walk. Those arriving by car will find the Rovereto Sud exit of the A22 motorway about 20 minutes away by car, while Verona-Villafranca Airport is 52 km away. Bus stops for Rovereto are right in front of the hotel.

The area is suited to active tourism in every season: in summer the lake is ideal for windsurfing and sailing, with the Ponale Waterfall 2.7 km away and Passo San Giovanni 4.1 km away as destinations for scenic hikes; in winter the mild Garda climate remains more favourable than the nearby Alpine valleys. Malcesine Castle, about 13 km away, is a classic outing for those wanting to discover the other shore of the lake.

Spiaggia dei Pini — Small beach on Lake Garda, convenient for a quick swim 100 m
Gelateria Cantonati — Artisan ice cream shop a short walk from the hotel 100 m
Parco dell'Ora — Adventure park suitable for families with children 550 m
MAG Alto Garda Museum — Museum dedicated to the history and culture of the Garda area 1.1 km
Ponale Waterfall — Scenic waterfall along the path leading to the lake 2.7 km
