I didn't eat breakfast there. They only had a buffet or coffee and a piece of cake. Neither appealed to me. My room was quite nice. Clean, comfortable and a safe in the room.

I had such an amazing stay at the Imperial Palace! The staff were genuinely the sweetest I’ve ever encountered, from the reception team to the cleaners. Every interaction made me feel so welcomed and cared for. The rooms were spotless, and the whole experience made me feel like royalty wherever I went. I’d love to stay again on my next visit!
