The Imperial Hotel

Ein wunderbar schön altes Hotel mit bewegter Vergangenheit direkt an der Promenade, etwas Abseits vom Trubel. Zimmer alle individuell gemütlich, gute Größe, bequemes Bett und Badezimmer mit Fenster. Besonders zu empfehlen ist der Afternoon Tea mit leckeren süßen und herzhaften Häppchen, hier sogar glutenfrei möglich ohne Probleme.

It's a beautiful Grand hotel but sadly faded. The rooms were spotless but very tired, to the point that the curtains were in shreds as you went to close them. Bedding was fresh and beds very comfortable. Sadly lacking in flair for its price tag. Breakfast was very good buffet style and of nice quality. Had a slight wait to he seated but still very good. The bedrooms are in desperate need of a refurb but on the whole charming.

Wonderful old hotel, needs some TLC but worth a visit!

I liked the history of the hotel, with details, and photographs, of all the well known people who stayed there including various prime ministers. But (a) there was not a room service menu in the room; despite the guest directory stating that all one needed to do was to order from such directory in the room; and (b) when I tried to telephone for such room service menu, I had to telephone five times: one attempt lasting over five minutes. I even tried to ring the external main BT telephone line, as if I was ringing from my house in London and this went to voicemessege on two occasions. I would have thought that staff could have clearly seen that there was not a room service menu present when preparing the room? After all, it is advertised as the best hotel in the town.
