Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Imperial Hotel Exmouth enjoys a fabulous location for both the town and seafront, with immaculate gardens and a bar featuring a sea view veranda perfect for sunny days. Guests appreciate the spacious rooms and the convenient tea and coffee making facilities, along with access to parking. The breakfast is a highlight, featuring a full English option, pastries, cereals, and fresh fruits, all served in an elegant dining hall; however, some guests have noted that the beans and tomatoes at breakfast were not to their liking. The hotel's blend of old-world charm and modern decor, including high ceilings and chandeliers, creates a great venue, especially for weddings.
