“The Imperial Hotel struck me as a genuinely welcoming place, judging by what I've read. Overlooking the beach in Saint Saviour, it seems to balance its enviable location with a traditional pub and a well-regarded restaurant, the kind of combination that makes for a relaxed stay. It's the kind of hotel I'd recommend for a taste of Guernsey's coastal charm.”
