What You’ll Love…
The Hotel – An icon of style and grace, a destination within the destination
Celebrated by locally born director and frequent guest Federico Fellini, you might have spotted the glorious liberty building which houses Grand Hotel Rimini in the world-acclaimed 1973 movie ‘Amarcord’.
Set on the seafront in the heart of the city, concealed in the wrapper of a creamy-white Art Deco structure surrounded by lush gardens, the hotel is a national monument and protected historical site, where celebrities, VIPs and heads of state have been spotted during the years: from Lady Diana to Tony Blair, from Sharon Stone to the Dalai Lama, just to name a few.
The facilities of this five-star hotel are as outstanding as its impressive Art Deco façade and antique furnishings, making your stay a VIP experience: Grand Hotel Rimini boasts a private beach, a blissful spa with Jacuzzi, sauna, Turkish bath and more, two swimming pools set amid perfectly manicured gardens and an American bar, two restaurants and – above all – timeless charm.
The Room – 18th century style meets new world luxury
Enjoy an automatic upgrade to a beautifully appointed Executive Room, retaining a touch of the original Liberty style and boasting original parquet floors, antique wooden cupboards, mirrors and Murano chandeliers. The Executive Room features spectacular antique furnishing, a plush king bed, a modern bathroom with rain shower, TV and minibar. Some of these beautiful rooms offer a terrace, balcony or just windows overlooking the gardens.
DELUXE UPGRADE: Feel like royalty when you step in your Deluxe Room, offering 26 sqm of elegant space and Liberty touches, together with five-star amenities and a cosy king bed.
Food & Drinks – Daily breakfast, one lunch during your stay and a daily glass of Prosecco
Start each morning with a decadent buffet breakfast served among the classical columns and chandeliers of La Dolce Vita Restaurant. Expect an impressive spread of home-made cakes, croissants, cereals, fruit and yogurt, bread, cold cuts, hot dishes such as pancakes, eggs cooked to order and more - all served with fresh juices and sparkling wine.
On one day during your stay, be treated to a sumptuous two-course lunch at La Dolce Vita Restaurant, where Chef Claudio Di Bernardo and his team serve first-class dishes including home-made pasta, seafood and more delicacies.
Each night after a long day of lazing by the beach, you can enjoy a glass of Prosecco at the stylish American Bar.
See & Do – From delicious food to buzzing nightlife: this is Rimini
The biggest beach resort of the Adriatic Sea, Rimini offers not only sun and beaches, but also a vibrant nightlife and rich heritage, making it a fantastic destination for a sun-kissed holiday. When you are not exploring the city, make sure you make the best of your free access to the hotel’s blissful DolceVita Spa, where you can treat your body and soul with Turkish bath, spa bath and more.
Federico Fellini is the city’s most famous son, and you might want to explore the colorful neighbourhood of Borgo San Giuliano to admire murals depicting scenes of his most famous movies, from Amarcord to La Dolce Vita. Take some time to explore the historic city centre, brimming with beautiful churches, Roman ruins and lively bars.
Rimini is part of the Emilia-Romagna region, which has graced the world with Bolognese ragu, tortellini, Parmigiano Reggiano, prosciutto and other delicacies. When in Rimini, a must-try is Piadina: perfect for a quick lunch after a morning by the sea, piadina is the region’s #1 street food - a thin flatbread filled with mozzarella, prosciutto, vegetables… or anything you like really, Nutella included.
But first, coffee: Coffee in Italy is an art that has to be enjoyed standing by the counter, preferably with a cake on the side. Head to Pasticceria Caffetteria Novecento for a taste of real Italian coffee.
