“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.”

Satisfactory hotel with some issues

spacious roomcomfortable bedexcellent showersmall roomchipped paintawful bathroom
The room was spacious! and lovely. Comfortable beds were a plus. I appreciated the excellent shower facilities and daily restocking of the room. The restaurant had a fantastic view. Soup on the first day was enjoyable.
The room felt small from the start, though there were no safe or secure area for valuables. Bedside drawers had chipped and stained white paint over the top surface. The bathroom was awful, I found it very small.

This room has amazing space! I had a great shower with hot water, wow! The parking onsite was super convenient. I found a spot easily every time. Breakfast includes so many options, including fresh fruit and pastries. The staff also makes delicious smoothies.
The room was a bit small, and I noticed the mirror had some rust on its base. Still, I had a fantastic time.
