It was our second stay at Borgo Machetto after 6 years and many things have changed. The resort with the swimming pool was reconstructed,the golf academy and driving range are still under reconstruction but in fact you can practice as you like. 
It is a beautiful,calm,amazing,romantic and charming place. A great choice where to stay when you don't need to be directly by the Garda lake,but just close to it,with a swimming pool and golf academy+driving range. Our room was very nice and clean. 
The staff is very kind and polite,always smiling :-) Although they were not officially open after the reconstruction they let us spend there a wonderful week.

Lovely place

We spend a 2days small weekend at Borgo Machetto in August 2015. Very nice property with amazingly friendly staff, a big thank you to the restaurant waiters as they went out of their way for every request we had! We received complimentary a very nice and spacious room on the back side of the property. Very clean. The hotel is good situated to visit the different towns around Lake Garda, just nearby the main road. The location has a little downside: car noise from the road but it was no issue in the rooms, very good isolated and at the pool the hotel management has done everything to cover for the noise with lounge music. They have a very nice pool, good sunbeds and towels at your disposal. On Sunday they often have special pool parties that guests from outside the hotel are attending. We found it a lot of fun, but for those who like quiet and relax time at the pool maybe not as convenient. We loved our stay and would certainly recommend it all our friends !!!

Lovely stay close by Lake Garda

We stayed here on our way back to Bergamo Airport, everything in town was closed for the season, this was about a 5 minute drive out of Densenzano!

Lovely converted farmhouse, we were put into Room 105, very large with plenty of room for hanging items and nice if small bathroom. All very clean. Only negative was that there are no tea and coffee making facilities in the room 

Breakfast was simple but ample given we were the only guests!

We would recommend to our friends for staying a couple of nights if visiting Lake Garda and a car is a bonus!

Lovely Little Gem

Stopped off here for a night on our way back to Verona Airport. The place was recommended to us as nice spot to stay near Lake Garda. Well they were right in the sense that it is a nice, spacious reasonably well converted building. The gardens are pleasant and I am sure if the pool had been in working order, that would have been nice too.
How ever the sound proofing in our room was non existent. Tall ceilings with only floor boards between us and the room above was a disaster. We had gone to bed at around 11. pm and had dozed off, when we were awoken by the guest above, who obviously could not bother to take off her high heels walking up and down the apartment for over half an hour. Then silence, but about 20 minutes later, more walking up and down with no concern for us below.
I can not recommend this hotel for anybody who wants to get a good nights sleep. I am not sure if all the rooms had the same problem, but room 102 does.
Breakfast also disappointing. Would have thought they would have had a better offering. Cannot comment on the in restaurant as we eat out.

Peaceful & noisey

I cannot believe that this place has been awarded a tripadvisor certificate for excellence. Yes the grounds are beautiful, well presented and maintained with a great pool and a nice golf course. But that is where it ends.

Forget about staying here if you don't have a car. There is no bus nor shuttle service to the town of Desenzano. It's a 10 € taxi ride one way which cannot be booked in avdance and is subject to availability of one of the twelve taxis in town. We called five times and waited half an hour today to finally get one. 

The room is spacious but lacks attention to detail. Visible electrical wires are protruding from the wall, broken toilet seat and heavily stained couch just to name a few. There is no wifi connection in the room (in 2014) but only at the bar located near the pool. 

The shower is by far the worst feature of the room. A failed attempt to a luxurious shower. There are six shower heads (yes you read right), none of which function properly nor have decent pressure. There are huge damp stains on the ceiling and mould in the track of the screen door. We had a cold shower on the first day because something was wrong with the hot water system. Although this was promptly fixed, the water temperature is almost impossible to regulate.

Breakfast was ok but not impressive. There is an affordable restaurant on the grounds where food is alright but this is not enough to make this place worth staying at. Disappointing.
