Stayed 1 night

My friend and I spent Wednesday night there, and received a VERY friendly welcome from a nice lady at the reception desk. Unfortunately, there are no lifts and the stairs are rather steep and spiral too, which as two elderly men with walking sticks we found quite hazardous with our luggage. When we got to our room, which was on the first floor, the light in the shower room and loo was broken, resulting in complete darkness with the door shut. I went back and spoke to the lady who had welcomed us and her surprise at the light not working seemed 100% genuine and she apologised profusely and said she would "get it fixed". Then she very quickly and efficiently got us moved to another room, also on the first floor, which was absolutely perfect. I would recommend this hotel for its cleanliness and friendliness but disabled people need to be aware of the stairs.

I don’t think the Imperial Hotel has had a makeover since the demise of Empire, but - the room was clean, the bed comfy, the staff were lovely, and we had a cooked breakfast - all for £75. Excellent value for a one-night stopover.

Tired hotel poor decor and poor matress on the bed though clean sheets and pillows. Bed base was dirty . Carpets in toilet was stained. No bath mats in shower/ bath so never used it but water flow was terrible. Breakfast was good and breakfast staff were nice. Would not choose to stay again.

Very tired property, probably reasonable value for money for Scotland but compared to most of UK it's quite overpriced for what you get. On the plus side, the bed was clean, the shower worked fine, and the breakfast was good.

Friendly helpful staff. Good breakfast. Property is a pub and as such can get some noise from the revellers.
