"Have a hard time understanding why this hotel received such high ratings! The pool you think is in the hotel is located on the beach and in it you should be crowded with 1000 other people in. The rooms are small and the toilet even smaller, very responsive and the AC barely working. On the plus side, the location is close to the beach and the very nice cleaning lady."

"Wonderful iconic hotel with delightful service. The dinner on the terrace with entertainment is not to be missed. The gym is the worst I’ve ever seen in over 1,000 hotel stays: the one machine was broken all four days and it probably has been and will be. There are five dumbbells, two sets and an orphan. I know it’s Rimini, but for any hotel, let alone The Grand, this is unacceptable."
