Faint glimpses of grander times
It is a lovely period hotel that is in much need of repair and investment. It is very dated and looks derelict in places although it does seem there are some works undergoing on one wing. Staff however are very warm and friendly and the location is out of this world, reminder of times when this was a place to be and a real high end hang out for locals and tourists alike.

The location is really nice it’s a shame the hotel is falling apart. The rooms are old and battered, TV didn’t work, no heating, shower leaks onto the floor and woodlice in the room. Not what was advertised whatsoever

The staff was amazing and friendly and that's what makes it so difficult to rate this property. The building itself is old and in bad need of repair, carpets, walls, windows and coverings all stained or broken. The breakfast was very good. So staff a 10 but building a 3. Please save this building - it could really be something!

About to be refurbished and desperately needs it. Room was very dated and not worth the money we paid but was clean. Staff were superb & very friendly. Breakfast was good selection but cold. Very dog friendly and everyone made our dog welcome. This will be a gem of a hotel when refurbishment completed. It’s in an excellent location on the seafront

Hotel was clean and tidy excellent staff, only complaint I had was showering and contractor turned the water off which left me half way through a shower still with shampoo in my hair and had to wait an hour for it to be turned back on not the hotel fault and they were apologising and said that they did not inform the hotel that the water was going to be turned off. Overall stay was pleasant, and would definitely return.

Perfect location
This Hotel was in a perfect location with amazing views over the sea yet right in town. It was typical of an old seaside establishment, a little tired but clean but was undergoing refurbishment so can’t wait to see the changes. The staff were excellent, friendly and helpful but seemed a little overstretched. I would definitely go there again

Nice hotel, lovely stay.
We arrived at the hotel to a lovely receptionist called Emma, our room wasn't quite ready so she put our bags safe and showed us to the bar/dining area. We were welcomed by the bartender who was friendly and polite. Our room was basic but clean and comfortable. TV maybe a little small but adequate and we weren't intending to stay in the room lol the time. We had breakfast which was of a good standard and plentiful. There was parking nearby and not too expensive. We were on the top floor and there was a lift available. All the staff we encountered were polite and friendly. It was a pleasure to stay there and we'd use it again.

In fairness, there are a lot of ups and downs with the Imperial. The location is excellent, my room was clean and tidy, and the cost was more than reasonable. Niggles would include very low water pressure, a droopy showerhead, and a laughably small TV. But It’s hard to ask too much considering the cost. Clearly this grande dame’s best years may have been many decades ago, but she’s still got some life in her. I’m hopeful that with her ongoing renovations, many good years are still ahead.

The staff were very helpful and worked hard to deliver excellent customer service. The new owners "Crest Hotels" have some very strange policies that impact on the customer experience i.e. one hand towel to be shared between two people. Two tea bags maximum for two people per day, No hand soap, One toilet roll for two people per day, Rooms not serviced daily unless you hand your room keys in to reception. Very minimal room service bathroom not cleaned during our 5 night stay.

Good location on the wall of the old town. Hotel is definitely showing its age and does not look as good as it does in the pictures. Room had poor ventilation with the windows stuck closed.
