Faultless experience! This beautiful hotel has the best views of Santa Margherita and Portfino. Our suite with balcony and sea views was spacious and beautifully decorated with 2 bathrooms and a separate sitting room. The staff were excellent and breakfast on the terrace was stunning. For 4 days in May 2025 it felt like a fairytale in a palace.

The staff is first class. Everyone is at the same "nice" level. The room was a great size in every sense. Quiet, as well. The amenities were located well and I used the pool, gym, beach, restuarant, the bar (again the bar). As per the food served, the breakfast was filled with very good meats, cheeses, pastries, different omelettes, bread, yogurt, and much more. There is a lot more compliment the Imperiale Palace, so it goes without saying...I will be back!

This grand old gem was an amazing hotel with so much character. The linen was amazing, the rooms were large and spacious. The bar was incredible, and the breakfast was amazing. The pool and beach facility were incredible , clean and service was spot on, The only issue was their wifi that keep dropping

The property has an amazing beach club and pool area. The gardens are expertly manicured and the furnishings are wonderful Liberty style antiques. The view of the sea from the balcony rooms is unbelievable. Loved the property.
