Hotel Viking is the Antonioli family's 3-star hotel in Viserbella di Rimini, 150 metres from the sea and 5 km from the Rimini Expo Centre (Fiera di Rimini). Here is what's on in Rimini in November. It is the season of trade fairs and conferences: Ecomondo opens the month at the Expo Centre, while inland it is time for the autumn food fairs, from the Fiera di San Martino in Santarcangelo to the formaggio di fossa (pit-aged cheese) of Talamello. The coast is quiet and lovely for a walk along the seafront.
The hotel is open in November, with heated rooms, a buffet breakfast with home-made cakes, and dinner on request. If you are here for a trade fair, you can use our private car park and we can invoice your company.
