Cons: Slow Poor and Unreliable Wifi. You are asked to leave your keys in the reception. They have no ‘Do not Disturb’ signane. Because I am someone who doesnt like other people touching my things.
Pros: Room is cozy. It’s small but everything I needed was there. Toilet is clean which is very important to me. There are tons of Toiletries in sachet inside the toilet. There’s also small balcony in my room with great street view. The hotel area is safe. It’s close to everything. 10-minute walk to Rimini Station. The beach is also walking distance. I would highly recommend if not for the weak Wifi.
Breakfast is great. Very clean hotel.
I had a wonderful one-night stay at this hotel. The room was spotless and well-maintained, with thoughtful touches like two complimentary water bottles and essential amenities provided. The buffet breakfast was absolutely delicious, offering a great variety of fresh and tasty options. The staff were incredibly friendly and efficient during both check-in and check-out, making the entire experience smooth and pleasant. I would highly recommend this hotel for a comfortable and enjoyable stay!
I was very happy with the room and it's facilities. I really liked that the safe had a key rather than the key pad which I can never work.
I was more than happy with the level of service provided. On my first night I asked reception what plugs were used in the rooms and I was loaned an adapter plug. This was greatly appreciated as I didn't have the correct plug. Also, when I asked for help to call a taxi the night before, at reception, a note was left for the morning reception to call a taxi. True to his word a taxi was called and as stated the taxi arrived within 5 mins.
All in all I was very happy with my hotel room, the staff and the location which was very close, to the beach, shops, bars and restaurants.
I will definitely return to Rimini and the Royal Plaza.
Мы уже отдыхали в этом отеле в 2019 году, с тех пор отель конечно устал, да и сервис снизился (нет полотенец бесплатных для пляжа, не выдают воду в бутылках, нет тапочек и тп). Но по соотношению цена/качество - всё ещё это одно из лучших решений! Отель на первой береговой линии, достаточно близко к вокзалу, в пешей доступности магазины. Около отеля много вкусных ресторанов, сувенирных магазинов. Завтрак тоже изменился не в лучшую сторону, но в целом неплохой шведский стол, голодными точно не уйдете. Бассейн есть, но отключили подогрев, поэтому никто не мог им воспользоваться - вода ледяная. Спа услугами не пользовались. На 4 звезды не тянет, но на 3 звезды - вполне.
Nice hotel, convenient location if you need to move south of Bologna area ( but far from any public transportation), friendly and efficient staff, Clean, decent wifi, good breakfast. A typical business hotel, location is nothing special but far from too much traffic areas. Rooms are not too big but there is all what you need. Free Minibar when you book a superior room.
ผผู้เข้าพักI enjoyed my stay at the Astor :) the room had a funny smell, the breakfast was very uninspiring, and one could hear every noise from every corner all the time, but the room also was large and comfortable and the bathroom was good and everyone on staff was very friendly and helpful - it was a relief to stay at a place where it felt a lot like being at home. I definitely would stay again.
JJoe RossiterBooked this hotel as it was situated just off the main dual carriageway and had good road links to Cesena and Forli for trains and good links back to Florence and Pisa for the airport.
The hotel is located in the heart of the town and the entrance isn’t visible from the road. It has its own carpark for €6 per night but there are lots of parking spaces around the town, white lined spaces are Free!! Blue lined space you have to pay for, so check the lines!
Check in was easy and the staff were friendly and informative. The room was spacious and clean, there were two plugs one either side of the bed so being an adapter and extension cable for extra plug space, little mini bar that was reasonably priced and cupboard space with a little safe in.
The swimming pool was warm and the roof opens in the summer. The attendant was knowledgeable and excited to explain that the pool is warmed by the natural springs and that smell of sulphur was from these springs and good for the skin. Pool was long enough to swim in and had bubble jets and falling water.
There is also a bigger thermal spa available but we didn’t have time to make use of that.
Breakfast was a good selection of cold meats and cheeses, pastries and cakes etc, no hot option though. The only negative for breakfast was, staff served all the food, this was challenging with the language barrier and meant you had to ask for anything you wanted….
Town was lovely, lots of little shops and a few restaurants and bars. Towns folk were friendly and helpful and the little market was nice for local products. Lots of walking and cycling routes in the area too
ผผู้เข้าพักThe hostel provides you with the bare necessities, such as a comfortable bed, a spacious room and locker including a lock, and a small bedlight and socket.
Unfortunately, that is also literally it and nothing more. There are no curtains for the beds. The bathroom is super weirdly laid out; there is a bathroom with shower, the only toilet and a sink behind a door; then in front of that, there is another sink and a shower. WITH NO DOOR. Making this shower literally unusable. There are two light switches in the bathroom, one that turns on the light in the back bathroom (behind the door) AND a light for the front sink. This means that, if people are sleeping in the bed next to the bathroom, there is literally light shining directly on their face and all the sounds. A problem easily solved by adding a door and curtains on the beds.
The bathrooms didn’t have hand soap (they were empty) or any shower amenities (no shower gel). You have to pay if you want a towel, and you also have to make your own bed.
There is also a lot of noise from the neighbours, what seems like a student accommodation.
At this kind of price range, the level of amenities is terribly disappointing and could be easily solved. I have stayed in hostels all over the world and sadly this one was just one of two options in Bologna, so not much choice. There are really a lot of simple improvements possible that would have made it worth it, but I really cannot say this is value for money at all.
CClaiudiuGreat Value Stay with Character – Some Fixes Needed!! 8/10 !
This property offers a unique experience with its beautiful, historic setting near Bologna. The grand alley, antique decor, spacious living room, and modern touches like AC and smart TVs make it feel both classic and comfortable. Parking is easy, and the detailed directions are helpful—just make sure to complete online check-in to get all the access codes.
Pros:
• Peaceful location in nature, yet close to Bologna.
• Clean bedsheets, AC, and modern TVs.
• Impressive decor and spacious common areas.
• Plenty of parking space.
Cons:
• Room and bathroom doors are thin wood, noisy, and not well insulated.
• Bathroom shower door has water leakage issues, from bathroom to hallway to our bedroom—needs fixing.
• Beds are typical Tuscan style, not very stable but nice and new bed sheets!
• No mosquito nets, though AC keeps the room cool.
• Shared kitchen is downstairs; hair dryer didn’t fit any socket…
Overall, it’s one of the best stays in Tuscany at this price range. Just avoid bringing a sports car—the village roads are in very very poor condition.
