We had a basic sea view room which we had asked for. It does however need re furbishing, Dated and mis matched furniture, poor shower, no plug in basin. The room was very hot and the windows were screwed down.

Love this hotel, my favourite, we have a wonderful sea view, lots of space in our room, quiet hotel, nice bar area and good entertainment. Comfortable beds and a fantastic breakfast in a lovely dining room, brought my friends here and they loved the victorian feel and its grandeur. Good staff too. Keep up the good work imperial

Lovely, helpful staff for all of my visit. Being in a wheelchair and travelling alone can be difficult but the staff here were there to assist with everything. This hotel has a long history and personally I’d rather stay somewhere like this. Would highly recommend
