This is supposed to be a 4star but food wise it did not live up to that at all., The food got gradually worse throughout the week, baked cheese that was so runny you could not cut it with a knife and fork, fried chicken "Tuscan style", that was just like KFC, horrible and not even cooked properly inside, another night we had fried fish but it was just like a fish and chip shop piece of cod, in batter and not very tasty!! Walking with the waiter to choose a dessert was not my idea of table service at all. Salad starter was OK when there was any left!! Breakfast OK, just normal. Hotel was clean but no pool attendant while we were there and I did not see anyone clean the pool. Bar staff and Reception friendly, good location BUT I would not return to this hotel because of the food, after all Tuscany is renowned for its food and wine.

The Hotel was ok, the rooms was clean and quite large. We had booked with a travel agent and were assured that we're have a room with a balcony. What we got was a room on the first floor with a tThe food was continenal for breakfast but the evening meal was a bit differant, it consisted of a salad buffet and three courses which are best described as two starters and a desert just basic food. Be aware of taxis they are extremely expensive I took a taxi to the train station from the hotel and it cost €18 travelling 1.5 km, I found out later the bus stops at the back of the hotel and it cost €1.60, trains and buses are very rellible and cheap and travel to all the major cities and surrounding areas best by far but dont forget to validate your tickets before entering trains, on the buses you validate on the bus. Buy your bus tickets in advance at the bus station or tobaconists shops there valid until you use them.

Hotel staff quite accommodating. We were told about free parking areas a few streets removed from the hotel that worked very well for us.
Our corner room was huge and had a splendid ocean view. Furnishings were modern, spare but sufficient with very comfortable king bed.
Breakfast was pretty bad - packaged foods, no fresh juices, uninspired coffee -
When we discovered there were no chaise lounges at poolside, the pool manager went with us and removed towels from unused lounges. Perhaps the hotel wasn't full but we thought the pool adequately sized.
Go a block behind the hotel to via Colombo. Turn left and walk about 3 blocks until you come to a seafood restaurant on the left. Cannot find the card with the restaurant name but we had about the best meal ever there, served nicely in a funky looking Alpine setting. Reason enough to return to Lido!

We stayed at the Grand after booking on line and paid 230.00 euros per room per night. Quite a lot even for the location and considering it was the height of the season. The check in was friendly and the room on the corner of the the third floor was lovely with beautiful views of the promenade and the pier. Nice and quiet with the double glazed windows closed so we could not hear the traffic. Air conditioning was very good and not too noisy. The housekeeping was very good and the room was kept beautifully clean and tidy for the time we were there.

However, the restaurant was a real disappointment. The staff were surly, unhelpful and the choice at breakfast was , frankly, miserable. It was definitely not in line with a 4 star hotel. Poor choice and very average quality. It felt old-fashioned and cheap.A real let down as the rest of the hotel was nice, and especially in Italy where they take such pride in their food. If you can get a rate without breakfast it would be better value. There are plenty of places very close by to eat so not a problem.

The resort is very nice, clean and friendly but very family oriented so if you are a not child minded then maybe this is not for you.

Would we return ? To Camaiore yes, but not sure we would stay in this hotel again unless they improve their breakfast.
