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!

Letting the secret out the bag.. Best.Hotel.Ever.
Selfishly, this is a hotel that my wife and I would really prefer to keep to ourselves. But it’s just so brilliant in every way, that the people behind it need to be commended, and thanked, so here I go letting this secret out of the bag. The pictures online in no way do the hotel justice, but when you experience it in reality, one can understand why no picture can truly capture the essence of Imperiale Palace Hotel. This is a hotel frequented not by the Instagram crowd, but rather a high class yet relaxed mix of Italians and other Europeans. Being able to simply enjoy the hotel and its facilities without being surrounded by people constantly on their phones, looking for that perfectly posed picture, is absolutely energising for one’s soul. While it is impossible to discern one hotel highlight from another, the real stand out was the service and the total professionalism, yet engaging hospitality, of the staff at this hotel. From excellent fine dining cuisine, to probably the most delicious breakfast spread we have experienced across Europe, and then to the private beach at the Mediterranean water’s edge with quite simply the most spectacular view across the Gulf of Tigullio, makes this hotel one which we hope to return to many times in the future. We are grateful to every staff member who made our stay truly feel like home. From the front-desk welcome we received when checking in, to every touch point across restaurants, bars, pool and beach sides.. we say thank you!

About as good of a stay as you can get in Italy. We would recommend it. Three things we didn’t love that aren’t deal breakers but worth noting; - TVs in the room are from 2015 and are laughably small. They also constantly lose cable access - Pool and Beach drink service is terrible. They come around to the chairs maybe 4x in a whole day, so you have to constantly take trips up to the bar yourself. They also serve everything in cheap plastic cups that cause the drinks to warm up way too quickly - Pool and Beach chairs are very old and uncomfortable, especially if you’re taller than 5’10. They do have a face shade which is nice for reading through
