Accessibility Statement

Hotel Leonardo da Vinci – Limone sul Garda

Website: hotelleonardolimone.it

Date of preparation: February 2026

1. Introduction and commitment

Hotel Leonardo da Vinci is committed to making its website accessible and usable by the widest possible audience, including users with disabilities, in compliance with European legislation (European Accessibility Act – EAA) and international web accessibility standards Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) Level AA and EN 301 549.

We believe that digital accessibility is a fundamental right and a value that enriches the experience of all our guests, present and future.

2. Scope of application

This statement applies to the website:

It includes all public pages of the website: homepage, room and suite pages, wellness services, tourist information, contact page and other informational sections.

3. Compliance status

The website hotelleonardolimone.it is currently partially compliant with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA and European standard EN 301 549 for websites.

Most of the main functionalities are usable by users with disabilities, but some non-compliances are still present that we are progressively resolving according to a continuous improvement plan.

4. Non-accessible content and functionalities

Based on technical assessments carried out in February 2026, the following accessibility issues have been identified as still present on some pages of the website:

4.1 Alternative texts for images (WCAG Success Criterion 1.1.1 – Level A)

Issue: Some images do not have adequate or appropriate alternative text.

Where it occurs:

  • Homepage slider (images without alternative text in the main section)
  • Photo galleries (image links without alternative description)
  • Decorative images (logo, icons, graphic elements)
  • CSS background images used in some galleries

Impact: Screen readers cannot properly describe these images to blind or visually impaired users.

Planned actions: Complete review of all images with addition of meaningful alternative texts or explicit marking as decorative (alt=””) where appropriate. Priority: homepage and room pages.

4.2 Insufficiently descriptive links and buttons (WCAG Criteria 2.4.4 and 4.1.2 – Level A/AA)

Issue: Some links and buttons do not have clear accessible names or are completely empty.

Where it occurs:

  • Empty social media links (footer and menu)
  • CTA buttons without accessible name
  • Redundant links in galleries and sliders
  • Interactive elements without appropriate labels

Impact: Screen reader users do not understand the destination or function of the link/button.

Planned actions: Addition of aria-label or visually hidden text for all links and buttons, removal of redundant links, improvement of CTA labels.

4.3 Insufficient color contrast (WCAG Criterion 1.4.3 – Level AA)

Issue: Some texts do not reach the minimum required contrast ratio (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text).

Where it occurs:

  • Section titles in light gray on white background
  • Links in purple color on white background (footer and content)
  • Cookie acceptance links
  • Contact information in the footer

Impact: Visually impaired users or users with color blindness may have difficulty reading these contents.

Planned actions: Review of the color palette with application of darker tones to ensure a minimum contrast of 4.5:1. Testing with color blindness simulation tools.

4.4 Non-sequential heading structure (WCAG Criteria 1.3.1 and 2.4.6 – Level A/AA)

Issue: The heading hierarchy (h1, h2, h3…) has level skips and does not follow a logical and sequential order.

Where it occurs:

  • Homepage: heading level jumps
  • Inner pages: missing sequential progression
  • Some texts visually highlighted as titles are not marked with heading tags

Impact: Screen reader users navigating by headings lose the logical context of the page and may skip important content.

Planned actions: Complete restructuring of the heading hierarchy on all pages, ensuring sequential progression (H1 > H2 > H3…).

4.5 Forms without appropriate labels (WCAG Criteria 1.3.1, 3.3.2 – Level A)

Issue: Contact form fields do not have visible labels and use only placeholders, which disappear when the user starts typing.

Where it occurs:

  • Contact page: Name field, Email field, Message field
  • Missing visual indication of required fields (asterisk or “required field” text)
  • Personal data processing checkbox: has a label but missing “required” indication

Impact: Screen reader users do not properly perceive field labels. Users with cognitive disabilities may not understand which fields are required. The disappearing placeholder creates short-term memory issues.

Planned actions: Addition of visible and persistent labels for all form fields, clear and explicit indication of required fields with an asterisk and legend, implementation of aria-required=”true”.

4.6 Limited keyboard navigation (WCAG Criteria 2.1.1, 2.4.7 – Level A/AA)

Issue: Some limitations in keyboard navigation (without mouse).

Where it occurs:

  • Tab key does not reach all interactive elements
  • When closing a pop-up, focus restarts from the beginning of the page instead of the element that activated the pop-up
  • Esc/Delete key does not work to close modal windows
  • Visual focus not very evident on some interactive elements

Impact: Users navigating only with keyboard (motor disabilities) have difficulty reaching some content and lose orientation after interaction with modal elements.

Planned actions: Complete implementation of keyboard focus management, addition of Esc key support to close modals, improvement of :focus styles with clear borders, focus position management after closing modals.

4.7 Other technical issues identified

Multimedia elements without alternatives:

  • Videos without transcripts or subtitles

ARIA elements:

  • Presence of ARIA attributes that require verification of correct use

Non-accessible PDF:

  • Links to PDF documents without an accessible alternative version

5. Assessment methodology

This statement was prepared in February 2026 using a combined accessibility assessment methodology.

5.1 Automated testing tools

Automated analysis tools were used on a representative sample of pages (homepage, room pages, services page, contact page):

Automated tools detected critical errors, warnings and items to verify relating to:

  • Missing alternative texts
  • Color contrast issues
  • Incorrect heading structure
  • Non-accessible links and forms
  • Keyboard navigation issues

5.2 Manual testing

Manual keyboard navigation tests were carried out on representative pages, verifying:

  • Navigation with arrow keys
  • Navigation with Tab key
  • Focus visibility
  • Activation with Enter/Space
  • Closing with Esc/Delete
  • Tab order

5.3 Specific reviews

Alternative texts: Manual analysis of images with verification of presence, quality and appropriateness of alternative text.

Forms: Manual testing of contact forms with simulated screen reader, verification of the presence of labels, placeholders, required field indicators and compatibility with assistive technologies.

5.4 Sample of evaluated pages

The assessment focused on the following representative pages:
