Look at the reviews below and it is clear that there is polarised opinion about the Livermead House. Are there faults - unquestionably, yes - but there are many positives and I try and come back each year. I always look forward to my visits and enjoy the hospitality and the service of hard-working and courteous staff. Trying not to... More

I arrived on a coach tour and we were greeted personally by the Manager and it was obvious from that moment that this hotel is geared to giving coach parties a really good experience, tea and biscuits were waiting for us in the lounge,while our cases were taken to our rooms. The dining room is impressive with chandeliers, heavy drapes... More

Stayed for one night after attending a function at the hotel. The service from begining to end was exceptional. Polite, friendly and helpful. Try sitting in the bar with a drink looking out over the sea. I recommend it! Another thing, lots of space between tables, in both the bar/lounge and the dining room. In so many places the tables...

I have just looked at some of the other reviews of this hotel and can only conclude that the positive reviewers must have been either been on drugs or drunk. This hotel is probably amongst the worst I have ever stayed in. The beds are ancient lumpy and way to soft. The noise from the traffic is so loud during... More

We love Torquay and thought we would treat ourselves to slightly more luxury with the Livermead Hotel. The hotel itself is beautifully appointed but I was extremely unhappy with the service received. I'm not sure if she was the owner or not but a lady called Diane made us feel very uncomfortable. She constantly looked down her nose at us,... More

For the last 3 years i have frequented a local gift and accessory exhibition in Torquay, I stay at this hotel for 4 Evenings over the first week after Xmas. Although some of the Bedrooms are quite dated the overall hotel experience is very good. The restaurant is the center piece as far as i am concerned, the food is... More

The hotel restaurant is excellent with superb food and service and represents exceptional value for money. Service is very traditional with the staff in tails and the Hotels owners overseeing everything. Nothing is too much trouble and after lunch there is a spacious lounge to take your coffee in and relax enjoying the sea view. It does tend to appeal... More
