Bottom Line
With only 10 rooms, the Corte Malaspina, in the center of Sandra, has an intimate, familial feel. Rooms in this former country house are individually styled and cozy, and all come with air-conditioning and flat-screen TVs. Triple and Quadruple rooms are available for groups and families with children, and the amusement and theme parks of Gardaland, Movieland, Caneva, and Parco Nautica are all within a 15-minute drive. A breakfast buffet of meats, yogurts, and breads is included in the room rate, and is served in an attractive breakfast room that doubles as a coffee and liquor bar later in the day, with light snacks available. There is no actual on-site restaurant, and a car is necessary to explore the area's sights and eating options.

Scene
Intimate and family-friendly, with a pleasant outdoor sitting area
With only 10 rooms, the Corte Malaspina has the intimate feel of a bed and breakfast. It's particularly popular with families who use it as a base to explore the nearby amusement and theme parks -- Gardaland, Movieland, Caneva, and Parco Nautica -- although it might also suit couples wanting a quiet taste of the Italian countryside. The hotel is housed in a three-story terra-cotta former country house painted light salmon. While the lobby is cramped, with a reception desk and two clunky-looking leather couches that look as if they belong somewhere else, there's lovely greenery-filled outdoor sitting area with tables and parasols where guests can relax. There's also a small sitting area on the top floor in the hallway for guests who prefer to relax indoors.
Location
Village location, a short drive from Gardaland amusement park
The hotel is in Sandra, a minute's walk from the village church. There's little in the way of activity in the area, and a car is necessary for getting around. The ever-popular Gardaland amusement park is about a 15-minute drive from the hotel, the Caneva theme park is about a 10-minute drive, and Parco Natura Viva, an animal park, is a about a five-minute drive. The Verona Villafranca Airport is a 20-minute drive, and Verona can be reached in about a half hour's drive. Venice is about a 90-minute drive.
Rooms
Cozy, individually styled rooms, all with air-conditioning
The 10 rooms at the Corte Malaspina are individually styled with country details, which include wood or tile floors, brick trim and wood-beamed sloping ceilings in some of the rooms, and farmhouse-style heavy furniture. Double Rooms with one or two beds are available, as are Triple and Quadruple Rooms for larger groups. Cribs and cots can also be arranged. All rooms come with air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and coffeemakers. Bathrooms are white and basic, with walk-in showers, hairdryers, and toiletries.
Features
Free breakfast served daily in coffee bar
Like most properties of its style and size, Corte Malaspina is not packed with on-site amenities. But a free continental breakfast is served daily in a cozy breakfast room that doubles as a coffee bar later in the day, when it serves hot beverages and spirits along with basic snacks. There's no charge for on-site parking, and free Wi-Fi is available in the common areas.
