Overview

 
Tucked right on the edge of Lake Garda with its own little private beach and jetty, Hotel Kriss is a boutique-style 4★ base that feels effortlessly Italian. New to our programme for summer 2025, this friendly, family-run hotel blends sweeping lake views with a rooftop terrace, a chilled beach bar and easy access to Bardolino’s pretty harbourfront promenade – all wrapped up in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.

Morning swims from the private jetty, long lunches at the lakeside La Preonda restaurant and aperitivo hour on the rooftop terrace – Hotel Kriss captures everything that’s charming about Bardolino in one compact, stylish package. With only 34 rooms, service feels personal, and you’re a flat, lakeside stroll from colourful streets, wine bars and waterfront gelaterias. For couples or friends keen to experience Lake Garda and Lake Garda’s wine country, Hotel Kriss delivers a close-to-the-action yet peaceful stay. It’s approximately 1 hour 30 minutes from Verona (VRN) airport. See more Italy holidays.

Map & location


Bardolino, Lake Garda, Italy

Bardolino is one of Lake Garda’s most photogenic towns – all pastel façades, bobbing boats and vine-cloaked hills. Hotel Kriss places you right on the shore, with direct access to a private slice of pebble beach and a jetty for lake dips.

Follow the promenade for around 300m and you’re in the heart of Bardolino, where wine bars pour the region’s famous reds, trattorias serve fresh lake fish and the main piazza hums with evening life. The wider region is made for exploring too: vineyards, Verona’s Roman ruins and other lakeside towns are all within easy reach by boat or bus.

  • Port and Bardolino resort centre 300m
  • Approx. transfer time from airport 1 hour 30 minutes

Facilities

Pool & outdoors


Although there’s no traditional swimming pool, the lake is your playground here. Step straight from the hotel onto the private lakeside area, where sunbeds line the shore and a wooden jetty reaches into the clear water – perfect for refreshing dips or simply sitting with your feet in the lake as the boats glide past.

The waterfront setting means you’ve got that “beach club” feel without the crowds, and the promenade continues in both directions for scenic walks or jogs along the shoreline.

Spa, sports & wellness


Keep your routine going in the compact, air-conditioned gym, open roughly 08:00–20:00, with cardio machines, a free weights area and a stretching zone.

Lake Garda is renowned for cycling, and Hotel Kriss leans into that with dedicated cycling facilities, including bike hire for guests aged 18+ (local charges apply) – ideal for exploring vineyards, neighbouring villages and lakeside trails.

Around the property you’ll also find reception services, concierge support for excursions and restaurant bookings, and luggage storage for late departures. Kettle hire is available from reception on request (subject to availability; deposit or local charge may apply).

Open roughly from early April to early November, it’s ideal for lazy lunches or early-evening dinners.
