Albergo Diffuso Vulcano Village

The property was perfection, from the beautifully prepared food at the restaurant, to the incredibly kind staff. There was a peacefulness.

I wouldn’t have changed a thing.

Lake Iseo and the surrounding villages are so beautiful. Castro itself is quiet, but it's only a short walk to Lovere which has a wider variety of transport options and eateries, although there are a couple of options in Castro. The hotel restaurant is great and very reasonably priced. We usually like to eat at different places, but after having an awesome pasta dish, we had to go back and try the amazing pizza. There is a bar next door and a snack bar opposite that serves drinks and pastries, which is perfect to watch the sunset over the lake. The staff at Vulcano Village are amazing. The ferry schedule to/from Castro unexpectedly changed to weekends only the day after we arrived (until March 2027 I believe) and we were supported with finding alternative transport to other areas including Boario Terme where the hotel helped with booking the spa, which was lovely. Booking through the hotel also gave us a 20% discount, which was a nice surprise. The TV and fridge in the room were good and we could access all the usual apps in our home language.

It's hard to give any negatives from what was a really lovely break, so I can only think of minor things that didn't really detract much from our stay. The room was a little hot in the night, but that is my own fault for not checking if there was aircon but we did have a fan, which helped. The pillows were quite plump for our liking but the bed was comfortable.

Bon emplacement. Tout proche de Lovere, charmant point de chute au bord du lac. Logement très propre et accessible. Parking peu cher à proximité.

Manque quelques ustensiles pour pouvoir utiliser pleinement la cuisine. Logement un peu impersonnel.

Le lit grand et confortable, le frigo dans la chambre

Nous sommes arrivés pour 20h, c'était le rush vu que la réception est au niveau du restaurant, on nous bouscule, on gêne les serveurs, la personne de l'accueil pas très souriante, ni bavarde, les chambres ne sont pas du tout au même niveau que l'accueil, il faut aller dans un autre bâtiment. Pas de clim, du coup vu que nous sommes en juillet obligé de dormir fenêtre ouverte, rue très bruyante, les restos qui jettent les verres et les poubelles tard après minuit, la vue sur un bâtiment collé et surtout les balcons des chambres qui donnent sur les autres chambres sans séparation où brise vue. Et du coup quand tes voisins de chambres pas respectueux, crient, font des rots depuis leur balcon à 7h du matin et bien ça te réveille. Nous avons fait un road trip de 9 nuits au nord de L’Italie c'est le seul hébergement qui n’avait pas le petit déjeuner inclus dans la formule. Bref je n'ai pas du tout apprécié à fuir
