Guest Reviews
- Ann-marie (10/5): - Lovely hotel right on the sea front sadly I booked late so had a room at the back! It was ok! Room comfortable but very dated and tatty had all I needed though! Didnt eat there, barman was nice and a drink on the terrace was lovely! The receptionist was very kind and changed my room from the basement as I was travelling solo! I would stay again but a sea view room which looked so much better!
- Craig (10/5): - Everything was as nice as it could be
- Christopher (10/5): Great hotel, excellent staff. - Great hotel. Our room was massive with a superb sea view. The evening meal was very nice as was the breakfast. The staff make this place excellent, they looked after us as usual. Great place to stay for Exeter airport night before flight. We’ll be back.
- Victoria (2/5): - Not sure
- Sandra (8/5): - Nice large room! Close to see front!
- Chris (4/5): - The pictures did not match the actual rooms, very disappointing upon arrival. One of the rooms had sand all over the bed and it didn't look like the sheets had been changed.
- stephen (10/5): - As always, the Imperial offers comfort, courtesy, friendliness and consistency. In our ever-changing world these things really matter. The sea front location is still just a short walk from the charming town centre. So many small shops, cafes, restaurants to suit all tastes (and pockets) - an absolute delight for the discerning traveller.
- Anne (10/5): Charming and welcoming - Yet another lovely stay at the Imperial Hotel. Such a charming, homely place. Yes it does need a bit of TLC in places but the staff and welcome of this hotel more than makes up for that. Everything was very clean and our room which was one of their superior doubles with sea view which had amazing views of the estuary, sea front and the gardens. It was lovely to see the squirrels scampering around! We stayed dinner, bed and breakfast which we thought was really good value. The breakfast had plenty of choice and was nice and hot, the evening meals were superb - such a choice and all different each day. There is also bar meals available all day if you wish. It's a dog friendly hotel but they have a separate dining room for dogs and owners. The hotel location is really good and there is a bus stop just at the front. The beach, the promenade are just at the front of the hotel and the park at the rear. Town is just across the park - lots of cafes in the square to watch the world go by!
- Colin (8/5): - Great staff, good breakfast and evening meals. Lovely grounds and close to beachfront and town centre
- Rose (10/5): - Always good, comfortable and welcoming, Staff brilliant and a great Hotel for Solo guests. Food excellent in Restaurant and Bar .🙂
- Keith (8/5): Exmouth Stay - Nice location in good location friendly staff would stay there again there all day menu is not all day
- yvonne (8/5): - It was very nice. Near the beach and the centre. Nice places to eat around the area. And nice shops. Clean room. Friendly People working there.
- Shirley (10/5): - Spent three days at this hotel. We had a good view of the seafront from our room. The room was clean &well laid out. Only a short walk to town & the train station. We ate a couple of times at the hotel. Well worth the money for those 3 days.
- James (6/5): A let down this time - Have stopped at the imperial 5 times in last 2 and half years and always found it great value for money, not this time dogs rates have gone up from £10 a dog per night to £20 cleaning has been scaled down use to make rooms up every day now every other day rooms weren't even hoovered properly and by looks of sheets they were never changed in the week we were there. On a plus side the staff are friendly and very helpful. The place does need a bit of modernisation
- Tiffany (10/5): Great location - Only spent one night here but found the room clean and comfortable. We were lucky to arrive in time for a beautiful sunset and walk along the seafront. (Can highly recommend Heydays for dinner)
- Ed (10/5): - We have been going to The Imperial for over 20 years and seen many changes. Its an old building but well kept and comfortable. The grounds are well kept but will never be "beautiful". It suits us and we hope to be able to return for a few more years.
- stuart (8/5): - Nice hotel in great position
- Michael (6/5): - Staff friendly, clean, Good Breakfast, shower not working ! Reported fault nothing done over weekend Carpets very tired, no ramps or amenities for Disabled, Would Not stay here again
- melba (8/5): - We liked the size of the room and the beds were very comfortable. The food was very nice. We liked the outdoor space for our dog. The room was nice and clean. We didn't like having the shower over the bath as one of us is disabled and had difficulty getting into the bath to have a shower. The toilet was stained. The curtain linings were torn. We were surprised at having to pay car parking fees. We found the front steps were difficult to manage for a disabled person.
- Louisa (6/5): - Cleanliness ok Didn't like breakfast buffet and for a hotel that size and grandeur you would expect waitress service and tablecloths. Bed very uncomfortable and felt like springs coming through mattress. Grounds excellent upkeep.
- Tim (10/5): - Staff are fab
- Richard (8/5): - Pleasant staff and clean room, very good hotel
- Angela (10/5): Night away for mother's 75th - Lovely hotel with lovely grounds on the seafront would have been better if there wasn't heavy wind and rain but made the most of it big shout out to bar staff Freddy and Pete who came out with my mums cake singing Happy birthday
- Timothy (10/5): - Comfort, view, friendly staff, B+ food. Price.
- Diane (6/5): Short stay - Although it was in an excellent position it was a very tired hotel needing updating to include decorating and refurbishing
- Angela (10/5): - We really enjoyed our stay here, the staff were very friendly and the view was fantastic.
- Carole (8/5): - Stay only 1 night but room was lovely, hotel was very convenient for beach, town and restaurants. Would stay again
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location. We had a lovely sea view room which was very comfortable. Bit of an issue with the TV but staff very helpful and swapped the TV. Very good value. We would definitely stay again.
- Paul (6/5): - Staff friendly and welcoming. Rooms clean but dated. Breakfast buffet was very good.
- chloe (8/5): - Spotlessly clean in the room and very convenient for the beach. We were on the ground floor so we couldn’t see the sea although we had a view of the garden. Parking was easy although there was a daily charge.
- Ian (6/5): - Quite an old property, the WiFi is dreadfully slow.
- beverley (8/5): - The hotel and Exmouth felt like stepping back in time and felt like Miss Marple could walk in at anytime. Parts of the property were a little dated and require an update/refurb. Unfortunately the weather was really hot so the room was quite warm although a fan was supplied AC would have helped. The bar staff, maintenance and Manager were great. There was an unfortunate incident which all of the staff especially the bar staff and manager handled with consideration and empathy. Ideally located and outside area and terrace were lovely.
- Mandy (8/5): - The outside of the building needs some attention but the room we stayed in was very spacious and clean. The restaurant and bar are very nice and I loved the high ceilings. It was in an ideal location.
- Catherine (8/5): - Overall stay was all good
- Angela (6/5): Imperial Exmouth - The Imperial is adequate for a one night stay. Bar area was clean and staff friendly and service amenable. Bedrooms are clean. Bed was ok. Room extremely hot, fan in room didn’t help. Did not try hotel meals so cannot comment on standards etc.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Check in ok, room ok, bed a bit soft and bouncy. Good breakfast. Typical old sea front hotel
- Martin (10/5): - Nice
- Julie (6/5): - Good location and lovely gardens but the room we had (117) definitely needs refurbishment, very dated furniture, decorand carptes. The walls had on them and the bathroom was very tired.
- Robert (8/5): - The room we had was very clean with a newly refurbished en-suite. A lift was available, which we were happy to see. Breakfast was very good, a great selection was available, just help yourself. The Hotel has it's own car park, but it will cost you £6 per night! I will definitely recommend this Hotel.
- Neil (6/5): - Staff were lovely. Cleaners very noisy in the morning from 8am not ideal. Property very tired. Value for money.
- Steven (8/5): - All good thanks
- David (6/5): - W were in abedroom that had a window that could not be opened there was a fan but not the same as fresh air and we were in the heatwave
- Annette (10/5): - Comfy Bed well presented rooms although furniture a little dated and well worn . Food was excellent good choice on menu in evening and beautifully cooked and presented. Waiting staff were efficient and friendly. Good breakfast choice range from full English continental or cereal and toast .
- Paul (10/5): - Already sent one review….excellent
- Annette (10/5): - The staff in all my dealing both on line and in person have been extremely helpful and efficient. reception helped me up the stairs at the rear with my bags and the lady on the desk in reception was friendly and welcoming. As were the waiting staff in the dining room.(we ate there for two breakfasts and two evening meals. the quality of the food was of a high standard and well presented. breakfast was buffet style and this was well stocked with plenty of choice of juices, cereals continental or the full English. Dinner Choice was good with a meat a fish or vegetarian vegan option,..staff asked about food allergies and plates were cleared away as soon as all diners at the table had finished .with minimal waiting for next course to appear. The communal areas were smartly decorated Bar staff efficient and friendly. the only observation i would have is that the furniture in my room was dated and had signs of wear and tear but there was plenty of starage a wardrobe , chest of draws and a dressing table two bedside cabinets and plenty of plug sockets to put chargers and my CPAP machine beside the bed without need of extention cables . there was also a powerful hair dryer and a large fan . I would happily stay at this hotel again by myself in the future it felt very safe and a home from home. the bar area and garden veranda and grounds were well tended and the gate at the bottom of the grounds leads out to the main sea front road and the beautiful sandy beach. Dogs welcomed
- David (8/5): Good value for Money and right on the seafront. - Breakfast catered well for gluten intolerance (Coeliac). The decor was a little dated but overall no complaints what-so-ever about this aspect of the hotel. There is a charge for car-parking but at £6 for 1 night who cares!
- wendy (10/5): - Friendly staff couldn’t do enough for you, all areas were clean and pleasant. Breakfast was enjoyable and value for money. Evening meal again fresh and good value but a limited menu. Rooms are tired but beds are comfortable and again clean . Will stay again .
- Linda (10/5): Mostly ok. - breakfast ok x toaster a bit temperamental. one toast not enough, two burnt it!! one bed in twin room had a sort of dip in, maybe mattress needs flipping over.
- Hazel (6/5): - Bed was too small. The bed position was not good for the television. Shower was poor . Staff were excellent. Convenient location and a wonderful view of the sea. Safe car parking.
- Paul (8/5): - Although an older property and some would say tired …. It still has excellent views ( superior room/ sea views ) , remains clean and worth booking again !
- Trevor (8/5): - Room 208 has a 4 poster bed very uncomfortable. Beautiful view with a balcony. Otherwise, room, very nice.
- Samantha (8/5): - Comfortable room Good menu daily Great location
- Margaret (8/5): - Bed was comfortable.
- Christopher (6/5): Great location but worst bed ever. - Excellent location virtually on dog friendly beach. Sea view room very strongly advised. Our only but major complaint was the mattress which should have been replaced years ago. Both sides collapsed, one side so bad it needed a rolled towel placed under it to stop you rolling off the edge.
- Liz (10/5): Lovely stay - Visited for a short holiday and to visit family. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Room was fine. We usually stayed in premier inn at Exmouth and tried this hotel for a change. Not much difference except we had a balcony, staff were nicer and more helpful and was cheaper to stay and park. Would definitely stay again. The hotel is pet friendly so there were some people staying with their dogs. We didn’t mind.
- L (8/5): - Lovely stay. We know Exmouth well and the location of the Imperial couldn't be better. Friendly staff, comfortable room, easy parking. Would definitely stay again next time we are that way.
- Colin (8/5): Imperial hotel - Like most hotels at present there is a staffing shortage. The staff here were very friendly and helpful so couldn't fault them. Both room and hotel were clean,though a coat of paint on the outside would not go a miss. The one comment i would make though, is that your rooms are only serviced 3 times per week.you still pay the full prices and for car parking . We booked dinner on first night,not a very good choice on menu.we personally wouldn't book dinner again. Breakfast was self service with a reasonable choice of food available. Would we stay there again,probably because of location and friendliness of the staff
- Verified traveler (10/5): Lovely hotel - This is our third stay at the Imperial and it won't be our last! Very homely, friendly - nothing too much trouble. We always have a superior double with sea view - the views are fantastic. Situated on the esplanade opposite the sea, behind hotel is the park and access to the town or take a leisurely stroll along the esplanade towards the point! Lovely! The food is good here. Buffet breakfast - everything you could wish for. Evening meal is choice of 3 or 4 starters, mains and choice of three desserts. They also offer a lunch/bar daytime menu and I can thoroughly recommend the afternoon tea - delicious!! They also do cream teas.
- Mr J (4/5): - The hotel is very tired and requires some updating and maintenance
- Christopher (6/5): - The website states that there is no lift. On our first visit the very large gentleman receptionist directed us to the stairs and we dragged our suitcases up 2 flights to find that at the top there was a sign to The Lift. We were furious. On our second visit the same receptionist directed us to the lift which was ironic as we were in a room on the ground floor. The web site needs updating and the reception staff need educating. The breakfast buffet was hit & miss - one morning no bacon, mushrooms, tomatoes and NO PLATES. Our room had only 4 sockets, all on the wall opposite the bed. We had to plug/unplug TV, kettle, hairdryer, 4 chargers - luckily I have a very long lead for my phone.
- Chris (8/5): - Great location and public areas very well maintained. Bedrooms now feeling a little dated and could do with some TLC. Staff very friendly and breakfast was lovely
- Susan (10/5): - Fantastic stay. We have booked to go back later in the year. Staff very friendly and the breakfast exceptiinally good. The rooms are comfortable, but the whole place needs a bit of a refurb.
- Brian (8/5): A nice surprise - Always thought of the Imperial as an old fashioned hotel. Very wrong - a nice surprise.
- Claire (4/5): - A very tired and dated looking hotel, beautiful architecture in dining room but chairs are threadbare. Room needed painting and bathroom shabby. Receptionist was not at all helpful on arrival and couldn’t answer our question about whether they served bar food that evening. They did serve bar food which was really good, decent size portion, piping hot and very tasty. Breakfast was equally as good with a good choice and all lovely and hot.
- Diane (6/5): - the location is great, the grounds are lovely and the staff are helpful, however the downstairs rooms need refurbishing (old brown chipped furniture) Large black marks on wall. Bathroom needs proper clean. The beds however were clean and comfy.
- Kevin (10/5): - Upgraded to sea view room well worth this as spacious and excellent balcony and view.
- Liz (10/5): - The Imperial has retained the original Victorian feel of the hotel. We stayed in one of the superior doubles with sea views which had a small balcony and a lovely view of the sea. We were lucky to have lovely sunny weather which made walking around Exmouth enjoyable. We were very pleased to find an abundance of places offering vegan food.
- John (6/5): Not brilliant, but definitely not bad at all - Very nice hotel, although could do with sprucing up a bit. Carpets, paint work etc a bit old and patchy. Rooms are comfy and quite spacious. Could do with a safe and, especially in summer, a fan in the rooms too I know it's getting more common, but I'm not overly fond of being charged £6 a night to park on the private car park of a not inexpensive hotel. Staff were very good and helpful. Enjoyable stay, would probably return
- Andrea (6/5): AVERAGE - Needs a bit of updating Excellent location STOP CHARGING GUESTS £6.00 a night to park.
- Karen (10/5): - As a solo traveller this hotel ticks every box for me. I have stayed several times and will be back very soon I hope .
- edwin (10/5): - Central location perfect
- Sheila (8/5): - The staff ( from reception ,management and restraunt ,and bar ,and housekeeping ..all very helpful and pleasant ) where helpful and friendly ,the food was very good with different variety ..no entertainment at night but could understand why as people go out or go to bed so wouldn’t be viable for the business ..but 5 mins to town plus entertainment venues on prom just outside the garden gates
- Laura (10/5): Lovely weekend getaway - Really lovely hotel in the perfect location and great staff. Lovely terrace and gardens to enjoy a drink on a sunny afternoon. Can genuinely say all the staff were helpful and friendly- they really make this place. The only downside is it desperately needs a lick of paint outside. Can't really grumble about the interior, just the odd tired looking bit of furniture here and there but its the outside that would benefit the most from a little tlc
- Paul (8/5): Saturday night stopover. - I had a fairly comfy twin room on the lower ground floor. The doors are very clunky so I would advise the hotel to ask guests to use the key to close the doors quietly. The TV was unacceptably small and bit of a joke. The room was clean except around the fixing at the base of the toilet. Breakfast was okay but the scrambled egg seemed to be undercooked to me so I didn’t have any, and there was no other choice of eggs at the buffet. I don’t approve of dogs in hotels.
- John (10/5): - Lovely hotel , staff very polite
- Barry (8/5): Pleasant stay - All the staff were pleasant and efficient, would visit again
- Trudy (10/5): - Was a lovely 2 nights stay..had a superior twin seaview room. Breakfast was lovely. Plenty choice..the hotel could do with a little updating inside and outside. Booked a superior but unsure what was superior about it..unsure what you got extra than a standard. But overall a pleasant stay.
- MICHAEL (6/5): A little ‘Faulty Towers, - Very Average hotel. Looked and felt a little ‘faulty towers’. Room was boiling hot with no air conditioning, the window also had a very short safety cord so only opened a few inches. Room was basic but not worth the money paid. Sea view room booked but was on a low level room with a tree in the way.
- Sue (8/5): - Excellent sea view from our room. Lovely grounds, well kept, good for walking our dog. Car parking was reasonable cost and easy, able to use the facility door full 24 hrs.
- Margaret (6/5): - Fab Seaview and Gardens. No lift to rooms in hotel extension.
- Peter (8/5): - I went to visit family in Exmouth.
- Rosie (10/5): - Home now after a very enjoyable weekend stay at The Imperial Hotel to celebrate a friend’s birthday and retirement. The staff were so friendly and helpful, and made us and our friends feel very welcome and not like we were ‘just another guest’. We ate in both the restaurant and bar area and the meals were a good size and tasty. Breakfast was plentiful with gluten free and milk alternatives available upon request. My husband and I will definitely be visiting this hotel again in the future.
- Christopher (6/5): Seen better days but OK. - Good stay overall but in a very tired hotel. Highlight was breakfast which was excellent.
- Julia (8/5): - Just an overnight stay before a party. Never stayed in Exmouth before, but have visited many times. The hotel is ideally placed with fabulous garden space. The beach is always a treat but a short walk from the entrance to the hotel, there’s a lovely town square/piazza surrounded by bars and eateries
- Andrew (2/5): - Shocking. The room was not the one we booked. Stank of urine and when we raised the issues at reception we were told that the hotel was full and that it ' is what it is '. And as it was only a one night stay we should just tolerate it. After all, the guy at reception has been there 25 years and knows how to deal with issues. Righto.
- robert (8/5): Very enjoyable stay with beautiful views - Stayed a night with friends, great location over looking the seafront, beautiful parkland setting. The hotel itself is a little tired and would welcome a little tlc, however the staff were professional and welcoming, the hotel itself was clean and presentable, the breakfast was more than adequate, and the location was perfect
- Michaela (10/5): - Good hotel in a great position, helpful staff
- kenneth (8/5): - Perfect position for the beach and town
- Claire (8/5): Lovely Hotel - Lovely hotel with fantastic views of exmouth seafront and the sea - we had a small balcony which was lovely. It is in an excellent location so you are central to the whole of Exmouth. Place needs a bit of an update, just a bit of TLC overall hence the 4 out of 5. I would definetly stay again 👍❤️
- Linda (10/5): - It was perfect for our stay with our dog. The room having direct access into the gardens was ideal. We will definitely book here again when we visit next time.
- Patricia (8/5): - Excellent location, immaculate gardens and welcoming staff.
- Lindsay (6/5): - Friendly staff and good location with ample on-site parking (chargeable). The room was fine, but the hotel itself a little tired. The same applied to the restaurant, limited menu with very average food, but still pleasant staff. Dog Friendly a definte bonus
- Carol (6/5): Nice staff but hotel not very inspiring - This hotel has a brilliant location and very nice staff. It is also not expensive. There is no denying it's showing it's age.
- DEBORAH (8/5): - Public area very clean and relaxing. We have stayed several times over the last 40 years and this is the first time ive noticed the building start to age. The room was comfortable with a view of the sea. However the bathroom door needs replacing as damaged and window sill needs sanding down and repainted. Staff very helpful and friendly. Ideal for walking into town and getting to the sea front.
- Roger (10/5): - I think the most useful thing at the Imperial Hotel is safe parking albeit at a cost, but all other Hotels in Exmouth seem to lack this facility making their use less appealing.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Charming victorian hotel - A lovely period hotel. Needs a bit of updating in some areas but mostly it adds to its charm. Food is good - choice of 3 starters, mains and desserts each day - every day different. Also there is a bar menu served in the day. While I was there they were offering cream teas and afternoon tea which looked good. Good location - right on the esplanade and within a short walk to town, the park and railway station. The gardens are extensive and are beautiful. It was great to watch the squirrels darting around and the various birds with their antics. I had a relaxing time and felt quite rested when I left so much so I'm retuning in a couple of months!
- Chris (10/5): Great stay - Nice old hotel right in the seafront. Our room overlooked the gardens, beach and sea, well worth paying the extra. Food is really tasty. Excellent customer service.
- Terry (10/5): Loved it - We loved our first experience here. Staff were so accommodating & friendly, breakfast was great & balcony with sea views was fab.
- Diane (8/5): - Pleasant atmosphere. Could do with activity in house
- Cheralyn (10/5): - Quiet and comfortable. Near everything.
