“The Imperial Hotel places you squarely in Murwillumbah's center, but be aware that the pub's popularity might make parking a challenge. While the updated rooms impress with their cleanliness, some rooms near the entrance suffer from noise. The friendly staff and good bistro meals make it a worthwhile stay if you choose your room carefully.”
