Grand Hotel Rimini

The main building of this hotel is pretty, and the area where breakfast is held is nice. It is well situated, with restaurants and bars easily reached. The metal shutters on the windows are great at keeping the light out. The lifeguards by the pool are very nice, friendly and helpful. The pool has a number of broken sun loungers around it. The ‘annex’ is not attached to the main hotel. It is across a road, and had cracked windows around some parts of the ground floor. It does not feel special like the main hotel might. The rooms in the annex are tired and dated. The bathroom floods every time we have a shower. There was no body wash, or conditioner (even though I checked and was told there would be before visiting). The bed is comfortable. The windows are simply not good enough. I’m writing this at 00:30, and thumping music is stopping me from sleeping. This thumping music is coming from the GHR beach area, which is easily a five minute walk from my room. When I say this music is loud, my window is closed, the metal shutter is fully down, I have £200 earplugs in my ears, and I can STILL hear the music. I called reception to ask when the music would be turned down, and was spoken to by a man on reception who just answered ‘si’ to everything, even when this did not even nearly answer the question. This hotel - especially the annex - needs a lot of time and money invested into it.

Very disappointing stay last night. No air conditioning working in room as advertised. Staff unhelpful and rude and told us air conditioning was not authorised to be turned on !!! Hotel run like Fawlty Towers. Would not recommend or return.

Stunning hotel both outside and inside. The public areas are lovely as are the gardens. Our room with a terrace was very comfortable. Breakfast was amazing. We were only here one night on our roadtrip, would like to have stayed longer.

Spent 1 night there. Terrible room. Had connecting door to the next one. Zero soundproofing to the point that is like being part of the conversation next door.. No water in the room apart from a small bottle in the minibar. No coffee machine either. The 1st room they gave me was a joke..it was supposed to be a suite , had no separate sitting area and it was overlooking the car park.. Do yourselves a favour and go somewhere else.

A stunning Art Deco hotel with a grand lobby and fabulous history. However, beware of rooms with adjoining doors as they are not well sound insulated. . Booked an executive double room. We were allocated a small room with a balcony overlooking the garden which also had a connecting door to the next room. However, there was no sound insulation from the adjoining room and EVERY word of the conversation in the room next door could be heard as if they were sharing in the same room. It was disturbing and embarrassing when the couple next door started shouting and the front desk had to be called. The bathroom was very stylish with bathrobes and magnifying mirror as well as soap BUT greatly disliked the combined bath/shower. It was very awkward to use and is unsuitable for older or disabled guests. Breakfast was included and was an excellent range of fresh and hot food. No kettle or cups were provided in the room but complimentary water was provided. Minimal English languages channels on the TV and the internet connection was very average
