One destination, several very different positions
At the northern tip, the Roman remains of the Grotte di Catullo and the thermal area sit beyond the medieval centre. The castle forms a clear gateway into the old town. Farther south, the peninsula becomes wider and more modern, with hotels, beaches and road access before reaching the mainland. A single Sirmione label therefore covers several distinct spatial experiences.
What this means for your stay
Choose carefully between historic centre immersion and easier mainland access. Staying deep on the peninsula can place the old town, thermal attractions and lakeside walks close by, but it also concentrates access through a narrow corridor. Hotels around Colombare or Lugana provide a different balance between road access, beaches and visits into the old centre.
