Grand Hotel Da Vinci

Ottima struttura con ogni confort. Personale molto attento e cordiale. Colazione ottima.

Servizio ottimo

As a well travelled guy around the world, I’ve experienced many 5 star hotels including Dubai, but this is by far my favourite of them all!! As I came here to write this review I was nosey enough to wisher how other people’s experiences. And I’m shocked to read some reviews and I can only assume that they MUST be spam or a bitter competitor locally. Because I cannot fault a single thing from the grand hotel Da Vinci The staff were impeccable, from their politeness, professionally well dressed and how attentive they were. I stayed in a room which took my breath away upon entering, Versace bathroom tiles and above the bed. A real fine touch of which I’ve not seen before in any hotel. Well sized bathroom and impressively sized bedroom. Probably the best nights sleep I’ve had in a very comfortable bed too. Some of the comments I think are spam mention issues with the pool tiles. No no and no again. The pool was perfectly kept. Not a single fault. They even had a bottom hoover type cleaner going around over night to maintain its perfection The surrounding gardens in the pool area and throughout the hotel were faultless too. If you want 5 star Italian dining then look no further. Not only is the breakfast buffet one of the most superior I’ve had. The evening dining service was amazing. Mouth watering menu choice and perfectly delivered. Take a 30 second walk from the rear exit behind the pool and you’re dining at ‘La Spaggia’ restaurant located on its private beach area which is idyllic in the evenings La spaggia also has lunchtime offerings after a morning on the beach. As mentioned it’s a private beach area, which unlike most sun loungers in Italy is very well spaced giving you a relaxing beach experience I can’t wait to return to the area because the town of Cesenatico is beautiful too. Only a 5-10 minute walk up the harbour and you have a great selection of boutique shops and waterside restaurants. Great for both daytime and evenings. 5/5 stars - and I have already booked for July 2026! See you again soon :)

In our opinion this hotel is a 5 star hotel only for the prices, not the services. The air conditioning does not work well in an almost tropical climate with a high humidity of almost 40 degrees in the shade. The pool needs a good renovation with the floor with broken tiles. The staff is rather haughty and responds vaguely to the customer's answers without giving any concrete help. The breakfast was certainly not the breakfast of a 5 star hotel.

I had a great experience during my stay at this hotel. The facilities were clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. I’d like to give special thanks to Elena at the reception. Despite her young age, she was incredibly professional, charming and efficient. She listened to us and handled our requests with such confidence and grace. Her dedication and warm attitude really made a difference and contributed greatly to the positive atmosphere of the hotel.

Plus - beautiful decor at the pool area, convenient location in front of the beach. Cons- Old and broken, needs renovation urgently. Kids club area is a poor underground area with no much to do. Price/quality doesnt seem fair, not to mentioned the overpriced beach that you need to add to your booking or pay later, to enjoy a very questionable see water.
