"The Grand Hotel Rimini is a stunningly gorgeous hotel at a prime spot along the Rimini coastline. The service is top notch, the pool is lovely, and the beach area is perfect. The breakfast buffet is very nice and the people working there provide attentive and personal service. The hotel also offers cute bikes that you can use without charge. I'm not in the habit of tipping cleaning staff but I made an exception since my cleaning staff member was superb and consistent through my stay. I would say this hotel earns its five-star status. Wi-fi service is spotty, not good enough to have a zoom call. It is weak and drops constantly in the room. Wi-fi is better in common areas and I was not the only one using my laptop in the hallway. The room (#410) also had a musty smell that appeared to be systemic and unaffected by the excellent cleaning service. My nose adjusted within a few minutes each time I entered but it's not a great first impression."
