Map & location
Riva, Lake Garda, Italy
Riva del Garda sits at the dramatic, mountain-framed northern tip of Lake Garda, and Hotel Savoy Palace Riva places you within easy reach of both the lakeshore and the old town. Wander 400m to the lake for waterfront strolls, lakeside beaches and water sports, or continue into Riva’s historic centre for pastel façades, café-lined piazzas and medieval landmarks.
This area is also a hub for active days out – from lake sailing and windsurfing to hiking into the surrounding hills and exploring nearby villages by ferry.

Facilities
Pool & outdoors
Outside, you’ll find a freshwater pool framed by loungers, parasols and a sunbathing area set within well-kept gardens. A whirlpool section adds a touch of spa-style relaxation, and complimentary pool towels are provided. The outdoor pool is usually heated and open from mid-May to late September (dates may vary by season).
When the weather is cooler or you simply fancy a change of scene, head indoors to the heated pool with integrated whirlpool – a great option for early and late season visits.
The nearest small beach and lakeside are around 400m away, giving you the choice between poolside days and swimming or paddling in Lake Garda itself.
Spa, sports & wellness
The compact gym is equipped with both cardio machines and fixed strength equipment and typically opens from 07:00–19:00, ideal for a pre-breakfast workout or a stretch after a day’s exploring. A small spa-style area offers a sauna and whirlpool, perfect for unwinding your muscles after hiking or cycling.
Evenings often bring live music and entertainment between early April and the end of October, creating a relaxed, sociable atmosphere in the bar and lounge areas without feeling intrusive.
Around the hotel you’ll also find pretty gardens and seating areas where you can read a book, enjoy a drink or simply soak up the mountain-and-lake scenery.
