Grand Hotel Imperiale sits among the pine-lined streets of Forte dei Marmi, a short walk from the Versilia seafront and the town’s boutiques. Its 46 rooms and suites are bright and composed, using pale tones, marble bathrooms and balconies in selected categories rather than overt coastal motifs. L’Olivo Restaurant and the Golden Bar provide the principal social spaces, while the private Remo Beach Club adds a pool, garden, restaurant, bar and ordered rows of beach tents by the sea. The Apuan Alps remain visible beyond the low-rise town and its umbrella-lined sands.
