The Hythe Imperial is over 100 years old....and it shows ( but to be fair the hotel has just recieved planning permission for a major renovation to return it to its former glory). Its an impressive building with very good facitlities, a great spa and pool, lovely surroundings and a nice bar and restaurant. Set in the relaxed seaside town... more

I stayed here last weekend and after reading mixed reviews I was a little worried but I shouldn't have been. We paid a little extra for a view of the water and it was absolutely worth it. The room we had certainly didn't have all the modern features of a city Hotel but it's not a modern city Hotel (which... more

Stayed here last weekend the 18th October for our 1st Wedding Anniversary so thought it would be a wonderful treat read a few reviews before i booked very dissapointing for the price we paid peeling wallpaper and paint lift out of use and we were on the 4th floor with a wonderful view of the sea but also a balcony... more

I stayed at the Hythe Imperial for one night with my parents, brother and my partner in October. The rooms were 80 GBP per night, which was good value. When we checked in, the service seemed very good - our rooms had been booked by a cousin that lives locally, but there was no problem finding to bookings or sorting... more

I stay in many hotels within the UK and The Mercure Hythe Imperial came close to if not the best service i have received. I often feel ignored by staff in many other "excellent" hotels but the staff at the Hythe Imperial made us feel as welcome at all times. There was interaction by all we met and a smile... more

We stayed for one week Aug 22nd to 29th and had an excellent week, we had disabled in laws with us but their romm and facilities on the ground floor were superb. We had a connecting room as we had our teenage boys with us but the sea view was great. The facilities, snooker room, pool, spa, gym etc were... more

My friend and i stayed one night although the room was nice with sea views and overlooking the golf course it is in need of updating. the people were friendly, and very helpful, i enjoyed the food although my friend had duck and couldnt cut it, so she told the waitress who told her to re order from the menu,... more

This was our second visit to the Hythe Imperial. This time we did not have a sea view (fully booked) so chose an executive room with a view over the gardens. The room was huge, with a large bathroom with bath and separate shower. Elegant but a little bit in need of redecoration, but for us that added to the... more

I was recommended this hotel by some family members who stayed here 5 years ago and raved about the place. It's a shame the same can't be said now. The location is ideal, stunning views, close to Hythe Town Centre (which maintains an oldy worldy charm) and just a stones throw away from the beach, and with the lovely Hythe... more
