Hotel Benini — Hotel in Cervia

Have been going to this hotel property every 2-3 years over the last 30 years and prior to that my grandparents used to take my father to this resort. While it is now a very long trek to get there from Canada it continues to always be worth the effort. Our last two trips also included our children (then 4 and 1). |||| I describe the city to friends as a throwback to the 1960s Hamptons. The city comes to life during the summer months. The downtown is a pedestrian only area and is a great place to grab a gelato after 8 PM.|||| The beach is run as a business, but unlike the Caribbean, it is a very pleasant experience given your lounge chairs are assigned to you for the duration of your stay. The Wi-Fi access is very convenient and is free.|||| The owners of the Benini go out of their way to make sure you have everything you would need and that everything is to your liking. They treat you like family. |||| I should point out that you are in a remote part of Italy and therefore speaking Italian or German is a great asset and will make your experience significantly better . The receptionist does speak some English.|||| If you drive to the hotel from Rome or Bologna, the hotel does have some limited parking which they make available to you for free. |||| The hotel has several bikes available for your pleasure which comes in handy as the town is great to visit my bike.|||| The food selection is excellent and changes daily and we do not get bored of the variety over the 2 1/2 weeks we usually stay.|||| I could speak about all the positives for hours and cannot think of any significant negatives to share.|||| Remember that you are in Italy at the beach and it is a great jumping point for daily trips to other...

We've spend one week of our summer holidays at the Hotel Benini. The hotel is situated directly at the beach and has an own parking lot and a swimming pool. The view is amazing. We have been welcomed very warmly and felt very comfortable. The staff was very kind and always helpful. The room was clean and everything worked as it should. Thanks to the air conditioner you're always able to escape the heat from the beach if you had the need to do so. The menu allowed to choose between different dishes for each course so that everyone can pick something suitable. The food itself was very tasty and the portions had the right size. We can recommend this hotel for one person, couples and families...it's...

BIS PER FAVORE!! Abbiamo provato per la prima volta il Benini hotel e abbiamo trascorso una vacanza all’insegna del relax e cucina d’eccellenza! Al nostro arrivo siamo stati accolti dal gentilissimo personale e da una colazione a buffet in giardino a dir poco spettacolare (la quale si è poi ripetuta per tutta la durata della vacanza): un’ampia selezione di brioche fresche, biscotti e dolci fatti dal bravissimo pasticcere, omelette, crepes e pancakes fatti al momento, frutta fresca, yogurt (per i più salutisti) e snack salati. I pasti principali invece sono stati serviti dal personale di sala, composto da giovani ragazzi. Noi siamo stati serviti da Federica e Ivan, molto simpatici e attenti. Il tutto è coordinato dal maître Ivano, pronto ad accogliere ogni richiesta e a consigliare il piatto più gustoso sempre con il sorriso. La camera con vista mare è dotata di ogni comfort (aria condizionata, frigobar, tv con sky…) e ogni giorno, dopo la pulizia, viene fornita di asciugamani e lenzuola pulite. Infine la posizione è ottima: l’hotel si trova proprio di fronte al mare con ingresso comunicante con il bagno Holiday village, dotato di doppia piscina, di cui una al coperto in caso di maltempo. Inoltre nel giardino nell’hotel è presente un’ampia piscina. Il centro è raggiungibile a piedi facendo una passeggiata di circa un chilometro, assolutamente indispensabile dopo le grandi mangiate ! Non ci sono dubbi, torneremo sicuramente, anche per i gentilissimi proprietari, sempre cordiali e...
