The staff are a credit to the hotel, it was reading previous reviews about them which was the deciding factor for us in staying at this hotel, i can honestly say everybody was lovely. beds were nicely comfortable. Breakfast had plently of choices. Trams outside the front door. We would happily stay here again when we visit in the summer.

We've stayed at The Imperial numerous times and it has always been excellent. Our room (248) was very good and spacious. The members of staff were very polite and the breakfasts served in the Palm Court restaurant as always were excellent.
