“The Imperial Hotel Exmouth strikes me as a classic seaside escape, positioned right on the seafront with many rooms offering garden and sea views; its proximity to both the beach and town makes it ideal for exploring. Though some may find aspects of the decor a bit dated, the friendly staff, dog-friendly atmosphere, and a solid breakfast contribute to its value; it's a comfortable base with a great location.”
