    Could do with a bit of modernising but this is a big hotel and it would cost a fortune. Water wasn't very warm in our room but I did let the staff know.

    Easy parking, nice big comfortable hotel at a very good price. Lovely building, must have a lot of history. Nice comfortable bar where we sat with family in the evening.

    The hotel provided a perfect 1 night stay for us. For the price I paid I wouldn't expect anymore for my money.

    Great value for money. I booked the standard double with bed and breakfast, room number 1. The hotel is old, there are obviously some things that could be updated, but if they were, in my opinion, it would lose that 'old hotel charm'. I stayed here and got an authentic English seaside holiday experience. The service from the staff was friendly and attentive, especially at breakfast. The room had lots of storage for longer stays. There were tired parts in the room, but it was clean. The bed was comfortable, there was a desk and 2 chairs with a table to relax at and a great shower. We strolled the esplanade just a few metres from the hotel, sat out in the gardens and ate takeaway fish and chips, grabbed a drink from the bar and relaxed in our room, I would definitely come back to do it all again.

    The only thing that comes to mind was that the toilet in our room didn’t flush very well. Otherwise I am struggling to think of anything.very

    I have attended family events at the imperial throughout my lifetime and have only stayed at the hotel once before about 12 years ago. The hotel has improved in all aspects immensely since our last visit and I would certainly make it our go to location for our next visit to Exmouth.

    This will eventually reflect on price and probably star rating with refurbishment. The carpet in the rooms I have stayed in are very thin so the uneven floorboards beneath can be felt. No shame to the age of the property and nothing that can't be refurbished that is probably already in the planning.

    This was my second trip to the Imperial, they have the advantage of stunning views! The amenities are good value for money, the shower has good pressure. Was lovely to see a welcome guest booklet with great information, this visit. I didn't experience any of the bar/restaurant facilities as I was visiting friends.

    The staff were all so friendly (that made a really good change) We had a good room overlooking the sea a good size with tea & coffee making facilities, .Check in was very simple, efficient and friendly. The food in the restaurant was so good and excellent value we ended up eating there for both nights. Good to have car parking on site.
