“One of Sirmione’s simplest, cheapest hotels, the Grifone has one of the loveliest locations, overlooking both lake and castle. Essentially it is a fish restaurant, with a mouth-watering selection of antipasti. It has an enticing tree-filled terrace with stunning views, and a scrap of a beach. Even if the weather is cool, you can enjoy the scenery through the restaurant’s picture windows. There’s no website, so phone +39 030 916014 for more information.”
