I recently stayed at The Imperial River House Resort for four nights, and while I appreciated the serene ambiance and lovely views of the river, there were some notable downsides. The service was a bit lacking, especially regarding assistance with local tours. The breakfast options were better than expected, but the overall experience sometimes felt disconnected due to the hotel's remote location.
