The mid-range Hotel Caesius Thermae is a great spot for relaxation near Italy's Lake Garda, famous for its natural hot springs. The hotel offers plenty of amenities, but the beautiful waterfront location and the expansive spa steal the show. The price includes access to thermal pools, saunas and steam baths, though individual treatments cost an extra fee. Rooms are a bit bland given the hotel's advertised four-star status, but some have outdoor balconies with lake views.
