“Time for the seaside on our tour of Emilia-Romagna ”

Having never been to Rimini before we did not know the area. We arrived by train and took a taxi to the hotel which is situated about 4 kilometers along the coastline from the main town.

Having never been to Rimini before we did not know the area. We arrived by train and took a taxi to the hotel which is situated about 4 kilometers along the coastline from the main town. The hotel is very modern and comfortable. We were greeted and looked after by 'Dita' (hope I have spelt that correctly 🙂) and 'Marguerita' both very friendly and happy to chat with us. Thank you to you both. This has been the friendliest hotel on our tour of the Emiglia Romana region. Breakfast was great, lots of choice. Absolutely nothing bad to say. Would stay here again without hesitation.

“As beautiful as it can be”

The room had a super nice view on the sea and beach and this is already priceless! No buildings in front of the hotel, so the view is just as amazing as it can be! Furniture of the room was new and with a clean and modern style that gives to the stay a even more relaxing touch. I also spent some ti… lisää

The room had a super nice view on the sea and beach and this is already priceless! No buildings in front of the hotel, so the view is just as amazing as it can be! Furniture of the room was new and with a clean and modern style that gives to the stay a even more relaxing touch. I also spent some time in the Wellness center that was cozy and intimate (and very very clean..this is something worthing to be mentioned). Last but not least: Margherita and Dita were amazing and very very nice. They made everything go smoothly so to enhance the good vibes of the vacation without being disturbed by the "technical part" of documents checking etc. The owner, Marina, was very friendly and always available for chatting, spend time with guests...the Italian touch that we love so much! This was not the first time I was in Rimini, but for sure it has been the best. Thanks to all the staff of the Life Hotel!

“Not a four star”

Good rooms. Mixed service. Basic breakfast, poor gym. Overall, this is actually a three-star presented (and charging) like a four star hotel. Rooms have been renovated and are cleaned really well.

Good rooms. Mixed service. Basic breakfast, poor gym. Overall, this is actually a three-star presented (and charging) like a four star hotel. Rooms have been renovated and are cleaned really well. Service is not at the level we expected. Reception staff unreasonably refused us a change of dirty beach towels until we demanded it (five days into a seven-day stay). Breakfast foods are not fresh, the products are cheap (again: four stars?). The gym is filled with second-hand rusty stuff and there’s no aircon there! Pool is basic. But this is probably the best among the sad and cheap facilities of this area of Rimini. Go closer to the centre or elsewhere altogether, as the sea in this part of the world is dirty and polluted.

“Good not great, not 4 stars”

Probably nicest in Viserbella (and more expensive), though not sure it is a four star hotel, yet. Excellent staff: super-friendly and caring. Great breakfast (with few healthy options). Good Wi-Fi.

Probably nicest in Viserbella (and more expensive), though not sure it is a four star hotel, yet. Excellent staff: super-friendly and caring. Great breakfast (with few healthy options). Good Wi-Fi. The renovated parts are nice. Incomplete renovation - Two years in and the hotel is still only half renovated. Some rooms look OK but then the corridors are done up only from the third floor up. Old windows, tiling and carpets await in the areas which haven’t been renovated. Once they finish, it will be nicer. Toiletries: they provided no shower gel or conditioner. Only shampoo and body lotion. When we asked for shower gel, they gave us shampoo. And it comes in small plastic bags. We would suggest toiletries are upgraded, and provided in an environmentally-friendly way. The “gym”. There is a space in the basement which has too few and old kit. No bar bells (unlike the marketing), no dumb bells, only some old kettlebells. This could be easily fixed by buying proper stuff. To start: buy a rower, a dumb-bell rack, and some mats? Minibar - I used to warm my clothes. It was empty and built into the wardrobe unit. It was empty but running. Consuming electricity and generating heat for no reason. You are given one small plastic bottle for your whole stay (I’d eliminate it or upgrade it to a reusable item) and even that is not placed in the minibar. To me, a minibar sounds old-fashioned, but if you have it, and keep it running, you might as well stock it? Just an idea.
