Imperial Hotel, Amador City, Amador County

Step through our front doors and enter into another era of gold miners and Victorian visitors. The aroma of baking and freshly prepared local produce invites you to linger, or return from a day of sightseeing for a relaxed evening of dining

The brick building was originally built by owner B. Sanguinetti as a mercantile store. The town already had several stores, but insufficient lodging. Sanguinetti changed his plans, added walls and opened the structure as a hotel in 1879.

Savor a cocktail or a cup of tea in the cozy atmosphere of the Oasis Bar, And retire with contentment, knowing breakfast awaits you in the morning.The original bar is completely restored and stocked with a large selection of spirits and from California and imported wines and beers.
