Apart from check in the stay was very good. The hotel is not as grand as it once was. However, it was great value, hads lots of parking, a great breakfast and so much history to enjoy. Personally enjoyed the character and charm even if hotel slightly dated.

The hotel is a bit run down in places but still such a beautiful building but what really makes this hotel stand out is the staff, nothing is too much trouble. The lady that checked us in and went above and beyond to the Melissa who helped us with room service despite being run off her feet. The breakfast is outstanding again the staff on hand to assist. Parking is available on site. I would not stay anywhere else when visiting Blackpool!!!

We've stayed at The Imperial many times before and it's always excellent. Our twin room (205) was very spacious, with a good bathroom and modern TV. There's plenty of parking. Breakfast as always was excellent and the members of staff were very helpful.

check in was smooth and the ladies were helpful and polite, the hotel is a bit dated and could do with a lick of paint. the only down side i could pick at is the car parking fee of £14 per night, it has risen quite sharply in just a few years. other than that it was a pleasant stay.

We stayed in a quadrupel sea front room,it was huge with great sea views and very comfitable.We went to see the illumination which was well worth the effort to see,and yes it rained,but it was good only wished we could have stayed a bit longer. The only down side and this is nit picking i was charged a surcharge for one of my party for breakfast has the room charge only coverd two people for breakfast which i thought strange has the room is for four people. The breakfast was stunning.
