Gardone Riviera

Luigi Wimmer, an illustrious personage of Austrian origin, decided to build the first hotel in Gardone Riviera, having drawn immense benefit from his stay in this poetic location.
Soon Gardone became an exclusive destination for tourists from all over Europe.

The great poet Gabriele D'Annunzio decided to live in this area, erecting the Vittoriale citadel on the hills behind it.The eclectic mix of heterogeneous buildings and styles is suspended in an atmosphere of times gone by.

From 1943 to 1945, Gardone was the theater of the Social Republic, ceding its historic buildings to the various offices of government ministries.

Time has given further charm to this place with an ancient flavor, where narrow alleys wind between charming villas and sumptuous gardens.
Nature and art merge to create unique and particularly interesting settings, such as the fabulous Villa Alba and the original Hruska botanical garden.

The particularly mild climate makes a stay in Gardone Riviera extremely pleasant throughout the year.
