Best Luxury Hotels In Rimini

This pocket of northern Italy is a true hidden gem. Bordering the Adriatic coast, it’s in Italy’s Emilia-Romagna region and boasts some of the best beaches in the country with shallow waters that are ideal for bathing. The city of Rimini is also known for art – both ancient and modern – with Roman and Renaissance monuments, and filmmaking. Local food specialities to try while visiting this area include strozzapreti, cappelletti, maltagliati and passatelli. And if you’re looking for nightlife, you’ll find a range of great clubs and bars, or you can opt for a hotel in one of the resort’s more serene spots.

Made famous by Rimini’s own Federico Fellini, who used the building in his films, the Grand Hotel is also sought after as a five-star residence with an exclusive area of private beach across the road. It opened at the turn of the 20th century, but experienced damage during the war and due to a major fire, resulting in major refurbishments. Fortunately many original features including incredible stuccoed ceilings have survived and the property contains beautiful antique furniture. It has 121 bedrooms, a restaurant with an open-air terrace, a beachside eatery,  a seasonal kids’ club, a beach splash pool, as well as further pools on the terrace and in the spa.

Offering a very different experience to the Grand Hotel, this is a six-storey boutique design hotel. At its heart is the i-CE AGE swimming pool, a water ‘sculpture’ for swimming, that’s heated to 31-34 degrees and open 24 hours a day. It has a bubble mat, elevated whirlpools, foot water jets and a large cervical blade waterfall that make bathing a luxurious indulgence. The i-FEEL GOOD Seaview Spa is an uber-modern light-filled space and the i-FAME restaurant features high-quality raw materials and a focus on fish. Bedrooms are known as i-SUITES and follow the minimalist design found throughout.
