Guest Reviews
The hotel location is perfect with secure parking. The staff are amazing - helpful, friendly, polite. The building is such a lovely atmospheric one. This will be our sixth stay in as many years. Lovely
We didn't have a coffee machine, just a kettle and coffee/tea makings
It was just as I expected. Q
Very good location, with car park. very enjoyable to get canapes with the pre-dinner drink, and very good to get a pint of DRAUGHT beer! Great to have a reading light by the bed!
Minor noise through side walls. NO power point next to the bed, a bit annoying.
Great location excellent value for money easy parking friendly staff comfortable and peaceful ✌️.
Excellent hotel
Location and style
No coffee machine in our room
The hotel is a lovely establishment in a wonderful location by the river and within easy access to the town centre.
Prior to booking we knew it was a small room which was comfortable with a large bathroom. However, the room allocated was in the annex across the car park from the main building. The downside was that access to our room was up two flights of stairs. The bottom flight was steep but OK. However, the second shorter flight was much steeper. My wife who is 82 has pins in both femurs had difficulty climbing the second flight. We mentioned this to reception but claimed the hotel was full but she would make a note of her difficulty.
We understand difficulties like this occur but mentioned to the receptionist that access to the room was not listed as unsuitable for people with difficulties climbing stairs when we booked the room.
We believe in future this should be made clear by Booking.com.
We often found it difficult to park our car in the car parks due to spaces allocated to electric vehicles, disabled spaces and a bus parked in the rear car park. Fortunately, my wife has good walking movement which does not qualify her for a disabled badge.
However, apart from the above we had a wonderful time and should we return to the Imperial Hotel we will book a more suitable room.
The property is well maintained and close to local amenities
