Indulge and unwind in Imperial style right in the heart of the Gold Coast. Imperial Hotel Gold Coast offers the ultimate luxury hotel experience you would expect anywhere in the world.

The old Versace hotel so interior is opulent but some of the chairs and lounges in fabric are a bit worn. Our room was lovely and spacious with two beds. Wonderfully large luxurious bathroom! All the staff - check in, bar and wait staff and door men were all very friendly and happy to chat … Breakfast was very good with lots of choice. Great coffee too. Also we dined in the restaurant and all meals for 3 people were very delicious- linguine, risotto and a steak.

    Great accommodation on a budget. Rooms are very dated, but also very spacious. Don't book here if you are looking for something to compare to the luxury 4-5 star hotels in the middle of Surfers Paradise, but if you are happy with a bed to sleep in, space to move in, a pool and spa, this will easily do the job. Right across the road from the lovely Broadwater parklands which has great playgrounds for kids.

    The room, the service, stunning hotel with attention to detail that warrants its 5 stars with a gorgeous view of the pool and man made white sandy beach. The pianist and singer Cassidy Wilson is a talent and a credit to the overall ambience of the evening in the bar area. The staff could not be faulted for their service and their friendly attentiveness. The overall experience was extremely relaxing and being surrounded by such luxury was an experience we'd highly recommend.
