We thought that with a booking for a non-smoking King Suite we would receive a nice room. The King Suite turned out to be directly behind the icemaker for the floor and was VERY noisy. It turns out every King Suite is in the same location on each floor. They should warn unsuspecting guests of this poor plan when a booking is made.

We complained and after paying a higher rate were booked into a Junior Penthouse Suite. The A/C did not work. My wife had to call in the middle of the night to get it repaired. The room was a smoking room and that agrivated my wife's allergies, the toilet was dirty, the whirlpool tub did not work, the shower in the same tub did not work because the diverter valve was broken. Altogether a VERY poor experience. We will dispute the charges when the credit card bill arrives.

Do yourself a favor, stay someplace else!

We have stayed at Imperial Palace lots of times, and truly enjoys it always. Staff are nice and courteous. We have never had any problems. It is a wonderful place to stay. We would recommend this hotel to anyone.

We stayed at the IP because of the price of $49.00 a night through Hotels. That should of clued me in. The room itself was dated. The bed had a hard as a rock cheap mattress and they spray the room with a deodorant that leaves you breathless. I could not make myself walk on the carpet with bare feet. The curtains had stains all over them. The walls are paper thin you can hear everything coming from the other rooms. After a long travel day, I went to my room at 1:30 a.m. There were three rooms across from me that had their doors open and you could hear the very loud rap music coming from one of the three rooms. The people were having a out in the hallway party. I called the front desk who said they would send security. After an hour passes I called again. The person I talked to said they would move me. She stated this hotel does reunions and there are three at the hotel this weekend. I told her why should I move? They need to control their guest. In the meantime the room next to me was accepting the girls from the party one after a another if you know what I mean. Finally at 5:30 am it stopped. But I was awoken by rap music again at 8:30 a.m. At this time I was ready to get out and go to the Beau Rivage. I called Hotels and I could not get a refund for the next night. I will never pre pay for a hotel again. Later that day around 2:30 pm it all started again. I desperately needed a nap running on three hours of sleep. I called the front desk again and ask to talk to a manager. They sent security. Nothing happened. I called back at 3:30 pm and I got the family reunion excuse again. I went down to the front desk and found a supervisor she moved me to another floor. The room was just as bad as far as dated etc. but is was a much quieter floor. You can still hear people talking through the walls. The food was horrible too. The buffet was worse than hospital food. If you want an excellent buffet go the Beau Rivage. If you stay at the IP take your own sheets and sleeping pills. I could of handled the appearance and not so clean room if I did not get all around poor customer service, the noise, and the bad food. I will never stay there again and I advise the same for others.

Just got back from our 5 day 4 night trip to Biloxi Mississippi, we stayed at the Imperial Palace ..
We went there on a bus trip which was quite reasonable.. Because of the rate we thought that we would not get a very good room, but to our surprise everyone got a wonderful room, with a wonderful view,.... The pool was VERY nice, in fact even alot nicer than some hotels in las vegas..
The staff was WONDERFUL ( dont know why some people complained about them when reading some of their comments) We had 40 people on this trip and no one had any complaints about the Imperial Palace except for the Buffet Breakfast, the eggs had to be made from rubber and not a very good choice on the menu.. The Lunch and Dinner made up for their Breakfast Buffet.................................
The Hotel is not new so dont expect the rooms to be very modern, but they are clean, quiet, and spacious..
If you want a good buy but not alot of frill by all means stay at the Imperial Palace, glad that we did...

Now I know why the Beau Rivage is always booked. We decided to go with the Imperial Palacen assuming that this was a nice place to stay but we were in for a surprise. First, it's located on the bay side of Biloxi, not the nicest place in the city. When we arrived, all seemed to go well during check-in but to our surprise, our 2 double bed became a 1 king sized bed. They offered a roll-away but if you're staying for about $100 per night, a roll away was not going to do. So I went back to the desk where another check-in employee rudely told me "no - we're all booked so you might as well take the roll away bed". I insisted that I speak with the manager and after getting the "roll of the eyes" treatment, the manager clicked away on her computer keyboard and walked away without saying a word to me. "Ah ha...seems we do have a double bed but it's smoking". So we proceeded to take the room - big big mistake and was greeted to the 15th floor also known as "ash tray alley" The stale cigarette smoke in the hallway was a great indication to our crappy room. Voila, we opened the door and slam - the fog of stale smoke nearly killed us! I never ever wanted to sleep in an ashtray but stay on the 15th floor if you want that fantasy to be fulfilled. I think we slept for about 2 hours that night without being able to breath and no help from housekeeping to deoderize the room. Luckilly we were moved to a non-smoking room but the stale cigarette smoke permiated our clothing and luggage! Yuck! Another Yuck was the "inferior palace buffet" Reminded me of the 'fine cuisine' from my highschool cafeteria - don't waste your time on this. Afterwards, a bag of Cheetos was a culinary blessing to help mask the grease inspired cuisine of the emperor's buffet. Definitely go to Beau Rivage - Buffet is the best!!!!

Overall, if you are a true die-hard gambler then biloxi is your town. I would strongly suggest staying at another hotel unless you want to re-live the classic las vegas 70's style decor and atmosphere; stale smoke and rude cocktail waitresses.
