First of all, Rimini is a very beautiful coastal resort on the Adriatic (East) side of Italy. Well worth the visit, but we imagine it could be very crowded in the middle of summer. Hotel Diana is steps from the sand, and many of the rooms have a breathtaking view of the coast. Our room was very well appointed and very comfortable. The staff, and especially the owners Antonio and Diana, work very hard to make sure you feel welcome and happy during your stay. The food in the dining room was delicious, the pool area adjacent to the beach is large with many lounges and umbrellas, and every time we walked in we felt like friends, and not customers. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
