I booked this hotel as a surprise for my husband's birthday on a DBB rate for one night. After the booking was made I read some of the reviews on TripAdvisor which did alarm me somewhat, so I telephoned the hotel and had a reassuring conversation with the manager Mr Tim Rew. Mr Rew assured me that I would be... more

Having stayed here 40 years ago as a young child, i took my daughter now 12 for a few days in Feb 08. The place is kept in the beautiful ornate original 1920's style, including the old cage lift, chiming clocks, chandeliers, patterned carpets and rooms. The dining rooms are just breathtaking, and everyone extremely welcoming. Food is superb -... more

From the moment I arrived at the Livermead House Hotel, to the moment I left I must say that the warmth and ambiance of the hotel and staff were absolutely top class!! This hotel, with its magnificent sea views, mouthwatering, perfectly prepared cuisine and immaculate presentation just has to be recommended for anyone wishing to take a relaxing holiday at... more

Friendly family run hotel with a very high standard of cuisine and service. Ideally situated on the seafront with panoramic views of Torbay, though not all rooms have a seaview. Additionally some rooms although well equipped and sumptuous are rather small. Day trips to surrounding towns and attractions are run by the hotel's sister company Marine Travel, and are well... more

My wife and I were recommended this hotel by a couple of friends of ours who come here once a year. We were told the food was going to be fabulous but we did not expect the level of service and the food to be unlike any we have experienced in years. This was a real treat. On the first... more

Dinner was superb and great value! 3. Cleanliness - rooms... more

Stayed for three nights. The room we had which was on a low cost deal was at the back, not unreasonably, but was a little small. It was however clean and in good decerative order. The hotels location to the west side of the bay is ideal for walking into town, which is about one mile along the promanarde. the... more

The Hotel is quaint but the rooms, well... to say they are small is an understatement!!! The room was SMALL to the point where, if the suitcase is on the floor you can't walk around the room and also if one of you was standing up then the other had to be either on the bed or outside. In fact... more
