Excellent place for a vacation. Located directly on the beachfront, right after the beach itself. Entrance to the beach is free. However if you need a sunbed and an umbrella, it costs 20 euro a day for 2 sunbeds and umbrella, with discounts provided if you book 5 days or more in a row. The sea is quite shallow at the coast, which is great for families with kids. Beach is sandy, with a bunch of seashells entering the sea. Parking provided - if you're lucky, there are a bit of places right at the hotel. Otherwise you're provided with a parking card for a guarded outdoor parking just one block away from hotel. We paid for breakfasts and were happy with this decision: it was quite good, and we found something for ourselves and our child every day for 10 days straight. Staff was very nice and willing to help all the times. Rooms were cleaned every day. Except beach you can find a bunch of different shops and restaurants around, Zodiaco was the one we liked in particular and visited several times.

We didn't care about that, but if it's important for you - rooms weren't renovated for quite a while.

We had a wonderful week at Hotel de France! First of all, all the staff was amazingly welcoming and made our stay excellent. From reception to breakfast and bar to the cleaning ladies, the staff was all smiles, spoke english and was supportive allover. Grab your afternoon aperol at the bar and enjoy it at the pool if it's a cloudy day. The Location was also perfect, right at the beach and 1minute to Ristorante Lo Zodiaco (go there!). Make sure to book the Beachservice (2chairs, 1umbrella and towel as a present for only EUR13.-!) Breakfast was excellent too, all you would expect. The rooms have roller shutters instead of curtains so it was always quiet and total dark which we loved! We'll be back! Free parking included, either at the Hotel or at a huge parking spot, 5mins walking distance.

Nothing really to complain about, the rooms are typical oldschool italian flair and a bit small, but since you spend all day outside it really doesn't matter. The have bigger rooms as well. Bathroom was refurbished it seemed.

I travelled with my family and we really enjoyed our stay. The beach was near the hotel (less than 5 minutes away), and for us there were 2 options for using the beach - free (just get your beach towels and lie near the sea) and paid (you can order sun loungers and an umbrella). The sea was warm and very suitable for swimming for our kid. You can find numerous restaurants and other shops around the hotel. Stuff was friendly. Breakfast was very nice. The room was clean and silent (closed thick windows did not let sounds outside come inside), even though there is a seafront near the hotel. And of course sea view was very nice, you can enjoy the view just sitting on the balcony.

Very nice swimming pool outdoor, air conditioning that works, room cleaning was very good (every day), directly at the beach, free parking close to the hotel. However there was no empty spots available at the parking so we were offered another free parking that was 6 minutes away from hotel - almost no place to park close to hotel and streets are narrow and crowded with cars.

- monotonous breakfasts, - need to pay extra for sunbeds at the beach - no refunds at the hotel (at pool were free)

The pool was amazing and the room was a decent size with a balcony. The breakfast was amazing! The staff is so kind and friendly and provides a very very good service.

Just need better lighting in the bathroom, it’s a bit too dim. The staff while cleaning in the morning can be loud chit chatting it will be nice to have quiet mornings as the walls are pretty thin!

- Perfect location 30m of the beach - Pool - Nice staff - Great breakfast - Soundproofed - AC - Great sea view - Clean - Looks renovated from the outside

- There's only one thing. Rooms need some renovation. Equipment is old. Everything else top.

Hotel is very close to the beach, view to the sea is beautiful. I appreciate parking place and also swimming pool. Breakfast was fantastic as well as personnel. If I visit Rimini in the future, I will accommodate again in Hotel de France.

Very nice hotel close to the beach. Friendly staff, tasty breakfast and small but clean pool.

The balcony needs to be painted.

Location is excellent, even though some renovation going on at the promenade Excellent breakfast

Room is indeed small
