I chose this hotel for my first holiday as a solo female traveller after reading the reviews on Trip Advisor. I have to say I couldn't have been more pleased with my choice. The hotel was in a great location, on a quiet residential street and just 5 minutes from the beach and a 20 minute stroll into the old town. The staff were very friendly and patiently listened to me practising my shaky Italian and seemed more than happy to speak slowly and using sentences I could understand when replying to me in Italian which I really appreciated as many just respond in English. I asked for recomendations for restaurants nearby in the evenings and wasn't disapointed with any! I even recieved a discount at one as they asked where I was staying and when I told them Villa Lalla they knocked 10% off my bill!! Breakfast was lovely and fresh and a great touch was being offered a real cappucino to go with everything else that was available at no extra charge! I was made to feel very comfortable and spent a good hour or so a day early evening or on my way back from dinner sitting on the lovely sofas in reception drinking wine as I didn't want to be out on my own too late at night - even though I always felt very safe walking around the area, even in the evening.

I paid 81 euro for 3 nights and was given a double room with TV and the best shower in the world. The bed was made and fresh towles put in the bathroom everyday. The rooms were clean, modern and very comfortable. There was always hot water and there was a hair dryer in the bathroom too.

Overall the hotel made my first holiday alone the best possible experience ever. I cam home feeling refreshed and relaxed and very proud of myself for taking such a big step to boosting my confidence and look forward to my next holiday alone, I just hope i can find a hotel as perfect as Villa Lalla. Many thanks to you.

One of many similar small hotels a short distance from the beach in Rimini, the Villa Lalla is unremarkable but friendly and good value. A little disappointed by dispensing machine coffee at breakfast, and a little disappointed not to get a balcony when the hotel didn't feel remotely full - but on the plus side, the breakfast itself was an adequate spread, the staff were really friendly, and wi-fi was a very quick connection as well as reasonably priced.

During high season I think the hotel offers lunch and dinner; it didn't when I visited, in March. But there are plenty of decent, if not life-changing, restaurants nearby on the main road that runs parallel to the beach. And the Rose and Crown bar, a ten-minute stroll away, is one of the nicest I've visited in Italy - not because it bears a vague resemblance to an English pub, but thanks to the busy, happy vibe and friendly bar staff.

Stayed at Villa Lalla for two nights with my friend. It was a nice, clean, bright hotel (although there were a few small stains on the bedspreads). Beds were comfortable, bathroom had a shower and a bidet, and there was a balcony with seats off the bedroom.
Breakfast was good - usual continental fare - ham, cheese, boiled eggs, bread rolls, cakes, yoghurt, fruit.
Took less than 5 mins to walk to the beach and less than 10 to walk into the town centre. The area was really quiet and peaceful.
Staff were really helpful too.
We stayed on the 2nd floor, which didn't have a lift. That was fine as we only had hand luggage though. I think that the 3rd floor (which was accessed from a different side of the hotel) did have a lift though. Might be worth checking if you have heavy bags!
