Elegance and opulence are the name of the game at Grand Hotel Fasano. Set on the shores of the famous Lake Garda and partly set in a former hunting lodge that once belonged to the Austrian imperial family, the hotel blends modern amenities with classic design. One of the lakes’ most historical hotels, it’s immersed in a centuries-old park on the edge of the Dolomites and has been run by the Mayr family for three generations.

Far from showy, Grand Fasano’s particular breed of luxury is, as the Italians would say, ‘lusso naturale’. Transformed into a luxury hotel in 1888, it radiates a natural, quiet type of splendour, well suited to its lakeside setting. The 86-room hotel is secluded, but within easy access to Toscolano-Maderno, the nearest town, and its dock for excursions around the lake.

Nestled between popular destinations Venice, Milan and Verona, this 135-year-old retreat is ideal if you’re after an alternative to the well-trodden tourist path, blending culture and exclusivity with relaxed Italian hospitality. It’s a seasonal hotel, so beware: it’s only open from April through to the end of October.

AQVA Spa & Wellness

AQVA Spa & Wellness

Newly refurbished in 2023, The AQVA Spa and Wellness Centre is nothing short of a wellbeing temple. State of the art facilities include indoor and outdoor swimming pools, three saunas, two hot tubs (indoor and outdoor), two steam rooms, plus a Kneipp therapy path, Turkish baths, chromotherapy showers and a glass-fronted gym – to name but a few. There is also a winter spa garden on the lake and an ice pool. If you’re looking for regeneration and restoration in the most charming of settings, AQVA Spa is the place to be.

In its luxurious treatment rooms, AQVA Spa uses the high-end Sothys Paris product range. The 50-minute signature 1888 GHF treatment stands out, a deep and soothing face and body massage using scented butters inspired by the property’s lakeside gardens. If you fancy something longer, the truly indulgent 140-minute Soin Excellence Secrets de Sothys is a top-to-toe pamper session comprising 11 distinct stages, using 11 different Sothys formulas. For something a bit different, try the Hanakasumi™ Journey to Japan. The Japanese-inspired ritual features a special scrub and ethereal foot modelling.

To Stay

Each of The Grand Hotel Fasano’s elegantly appointed rooms and suites are designed in a Neo-classical style, featuring simple shades of ecru, white and cream. They manage to combine contemporary minimalism with ornate tradition, and retain an old-world grandeur. Those facing the lake have spectacular views and are certainly worth the upgrade if you can stretch to it.

In 2025, Grand Hotel Fasano will unveil four new suites, located in a newly built wing of the hotel directly above and connected to the AQVA Spa. Offering king sized beds, lake views, a separate living area, the suites are embellished with Acqua di Parma toiletries and luxurious robes.

To Eat

Where to start with the food! This is Italian cuisine that’s as good as it gets. There’s the Michelin-starred Il Fagiano restaurant, the more casual Magnolia – set amidst a picturesque garden – and Trattoria Il Pescatore, specialising in authentic Italian seafood.

For relaxing, there’s Rama’s Lounge Bar and for al fresco dining and lake views, head to La Terrazza.
