An elegant, 19th-century villa, lush gardens, a private beach, and a spectacular view across the bay, these are just some of the reasons to choose Imperiale Palace Hotel. Once the residence of a noble family, this impressive villa has now been turned into a luxury hotel. It has a panoramic location in Santa Margherita Ligure, 3.1 mi from Portofino and 1.9 mi from Rapallo. Your room comes with air conditioning and Satellite TV, and some have a beautiful sea view. Throughout the summer you can relax on the private beach or at the sea-water pool with sunbathing terrace. You will also find a fitness center, which includes a Turkish bath and a massage room. The Imperiale Palace features modern conference facilities with a maximum capacity of 200. The restaurant with sea-view terrace provides a special setting for a candlelit meal. In summer, lunch is served on the beach in the form of a rich buffet of local specialties and fresh fish.
