The composer Richard Wagner honoured the Hotel Imperial by his arrival in 1875. He occupied seven rooms in the first hotel in the city while the master prepared performances of "Tannhäuser" and "Lohengrin". Wagner had a grand piano set up in the salon of his suite. Supplied with pots of black coffee, he played music all night long, composed and re-arranged main parts. The Hotel guests soon got used to the impressive sounds from Wagner's room and did not complain.
