Letting the secret out the bag.. Best.Hotel.Ever.
Selfishly, this is a hotel that my wife and I would really prefer to keep to ourselves. But it’s just so brilliant in every way, that the people behind it need to be commended, and thanked, so here I go letting this secret out of the bag. The pictures online in no way do the hotel justice, but when you experience it in reality, one can understand why no picture can truly capture the essence of Imperiale Palace Hotel. This is a hotel frequented not by the Instagram crowd, but rather a high class yet relaxed mix of Italians and other Europeans. Being able to simply enjoy the hotel and its facilities without being surrounded by people constantly on their phones, looking for that perfectly posed picture, is absolutely energising for one’s soul. While it is impossible to discern one hotel highlight from another, the real stand out was the service and the total professionalism, yet engaging hospitality, of the staff at this hotel. From excellent fine dining cuisine, to probably the most delicious breakfast spread we have experienced across Europe, and then to the private beach at the Mediterranean water’s edge with quite simply the most spectacular view across the Gulf of Tigullio, makes this hotel one which we hope to return to many times in the future. We are grateful to every staff member who made our stay truly feel like home. From the front-desk welcome we received when checking in, to every touch point across restaurants, bars, pool and beach sides.. we say thank you!

First time staying at the Hotel and was pleasantly surprised with everything, whilst it is typically Italian in design/furniture it has a lovely terrace..the pool/beach area is lovely with its own bar/restaurant which has great service...the town is a ten minute walk where there are lots of nice restaurants/shops/bars...all the staff are very friendly and attentive..I can't find anything to fault! I would definatley go back

4/10 Fair

Our room had a terrible order due to a baby next door. The smell was so bad we had to keep our door and windows open. We asked for a new room and they could not accommodate us so we asked for a discount because the room did not meet our full-price expectations. It was unbearable at times. They staff refused to even offer a discount. Very unfortunate. The situation was not their fault but it wasn't ours either. Situations happen and they should have taken care of us.
