Hotel Antico Borgo
Traditional Riolo Terme stay with round-the-clock desk
About this hotel
Hotel Antico Borgo sits in Riolo Terme, one of the two spa towns anchoring this area's wellness options, with family rooms offering mountain views, air conditioning and private bathrooms that suit a group travelling together for the Grand Prix. The restaurant leans traditional, serving Italian cuisine in a family-friendly, romantic setting rather than fast fan-zone food, and breakfast covers continental, buffet and à la carte options. A 24-hour reception means late returns from the paddock or early departures for track access never run into a locked door, useful on a race weekend with an unpredictable schedule. The mix of mountain scenery and traditional cooking makes it feel more like a genuine Emilia-Romagna holiday than a race-weekend stopover, even with the circuit only a short drive away.

Our take
Hotel Antico Borgo is a 3-star base in Riolo Terme for families who want a traditional Italian restaurant, rooms with mountain views and a reception that never closes, useful on a race weekend with odd hours. It is a drive from the Imola circuit, not a short walk, so plan race days. An 8.7 rating from 128 reviews is a good sign, though a small sample; I would choose it for the atmosphere and the late-night reception.
- ✓Book a family room with mountain views if travelling with children, since the format suits multi-generation groups better than a standard double.
- ✓Take advantage of 24-hour reception if your race-day schedule runs unpredictably late or early compared to normal check-in hours.
- ✓Try the à la carte breakfast option on race morning for a proper meal before a long day at the circuit.

Why guests love itHotel Antico Borgo is a 3-star hotel in Riolo Terme, rated 8.7 from 128 reviews. Family rooms have mountain views, air conditioning and private bathrooms, and the family-friendly restaurant serves Italian cuisine in a traditional setting. The 24-hour reception covers the odd hours of a race weekend. Riolo Terme is not Imola itself, so I would recommend it to families who accept the drive to the circuit.
