Grand Hotel Terme
Riolo Terme comfort with garden and terrace
About this hotel
Grand Hotel Terme sits in Riolo Terme, one of the two thermal-spa towns anchoring this area's wellness options, with a garden, shared lounge and terrace that give the property a genuinely relaxed feel outside race hours. Air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi and private bathrooms cover the essentials, while free private parking removes one worry from a Grand Prix weekend. A paid airport shuttle service is also tagged among its amenities, useful for fans flying into Bologna Marconi without their own transport for the whole trip. The thermal baths themselves sit close by, rounding out a stay built as much for recovery as for race days. Guests who use the thermal facilities during the day often return to the hotel garden in the evening rather than heading back out, giving the whole stay a slower, more restorative rhythm than a circuit-side box would allow.

Our take
A comfortable, well-rounded choice for fans who want genuine spa-town character alongside solid basics like parking and air conditioning. The twenty to thirty-minute drive to Imola Circuit is the main trade-off against a more central Imola base. It works especially well for a group willing to trade a few extra minutes on the road for a noticeably calmer base each night of the weekend.
- ✓Ask about the paid airport shuttle in advance if flying into Bologna Marconi without a rental car.
- ✓Use the garden and terrace for a relaxed evening after a long day at the circuit rather than retreating straight to the room.
- ✓Book early for race weekend, since Riolo Terme's spa-town hotels are popular with fans prioritising recovery.
