We have just returned from an 11 night stay, half board at the Hotel Piccolo Mondo with our 3 year old child booked through TUI. The flight was 1 hour 55 minutes and the transfer took just over an hour - don't let you put that off though! From start to finish the hotel was amazing, I cannot recommend it highly enough! Room - we stayed in room 225 and had a lovely mountain view, the room had a mini bar, double and single bed, balcony, plenty of coat hangers and storage for clothes, air con and TV. Perfectly clean and had maid service every day. Food - one of the main reasons we chose this hotel was due to the reviews about the food, we are both foodies and it did not disappoint! Our worst nightmare is an all inclusive buffet all you can eat type hotel so having a waiter served 4 course meal every night with the most amazing Italian food was right up our street! I will include a few photos! My daughter loved the food, if there wasn't something she fancied it was no problem at all for her to be cooked some pasta or spaghetti. Breakfast was great, and had the usual selection; served from 7am-10am. We ate in various restaurants for lunch depending on where we were, there is a really nice restaurant just opposite the hotel. Location - this was our very first time visiting Lake Garda and it will certainly not be our last, we loved everything about it. Torbole is a fantastic place to stay with so much going on for families, my husband took his mountain bike and went on some of best bike rides he has ever been on - there are many places in Torbole which provide shuttle services to the top of the mountains, you just book the day before. There is a separate locked room to store your bike and equipment in. Everywhere you go people are riding around on bikes, and you can borrow bikes from the hotel. We walked in to Riva many times, it takes approx 40 minutes - Riva is much bigger but we preferred Torbole without a doubt. Transport - there is a bus stop a few minutes walk away, with regular buses to Riva, Malcesine, Arco and other towns in the North of the lake. We used the ferries also to travel around, however the bus is much cheaper and quicker dependent on where you are going. Things to do - we went on the Cable Car up Monte Baldo which was amazing, did the Panoramic walk which is a must, took the ferry to Limone, visited the waterfall in Verone, there was a festival with fireworks one night in Riva, mini golf opposite the hotel, my husband hired a paddle board and canoe on the lake which he enjoyed - there is so much to do! The swimming pool was generally quiet, it has a separate children's pool too. Staff - every single member of staff was lovely, you were greeted every time you walked past reception and the waiters and waitresses were lovely. The reception staff were more than happy to print out bus timetables and information for us. Feel free to message me if you have any questions, I will be more than happy to answer them. We can't wait t
Excellent
