We have just spent another weekend break at the Livermead. It is an excellent hotel for food with a large selection of high quality fare. We like the hotel for the excellent ballroom but are disappointed with the decor and furnishings in the rest of the hotel. It really does need updating and some of the rooms are very small.... More

The Livermead House Hotel is very charming as the staff are so polite and helpful and the dining is silver service and four courses. The rooms may be dated but we had a wonderful sea view room with pretty decor. Would highly recommend this hotel as it is very classy for not a very high price tag and it is... More

I loved this place it is quite charming and I would recommend you book a sea view room as it's well worth it, our room was large and although it was a little dated I rather liked it as it would of been my dream room in the 1980's. We visited in March and it was a little chilly in... More

It's easy to see both side of the arguments put here on Trip Advisor... so here's me trying to be balanced. First of all be aware that "Club" rooms appear to be small rooms at the back of the hotel. I booked a Club room for 2 nights at a very reasonable price. Based on comments here left my partner... More

We stumbled upon this hotel by chance as we were going to have afternoon tea further along Torquay sea-front but there were no parking spaces on Saturday 9th of March only over-priced car-parks. I have been to this hotel on various occasions from weddings to dinner events and it has remained pretty much the same. We parked our cars for... More

Went to a morning presentation at this hotel. Supposed to be a real posh one, I thought it was old fashioned, and VERY pretentious. Trying to pretend it had something special, and in my opinion it does not. Top prices....tired decor, I suppose some will like it, as it is stepping back in time....not for me, couldn't wait to get... More

This was the fourth time we have resided at a Rew hotel, (twice at the Livermead Cliff), this was our second visit to the "House". Fantastic value for money, superb... More

We cannot praise the Livermead hotel and the staff enough. They were so helpful and polite, but not in an overbearing way.They helped me get some flowers in the room before our arrival as a surprise, and then gave us a beautiful cake for our wedding anniversary. Very thoughtful. Will definitely be going there again. The food was excellent, the... More

Possibly the worst Hotel I have ever stayed in. Booked 2 rooms, both had pink bathrooms - which tells you that they havent spent any money on the hotel since the 1970's. TV's were old, and had seperate freeview boxes. You could olny watch the tv in one position in the room, & thatwasn't from the bed! There is an... More

We were here for a weekend with family- I have to admit this was not a hotel of our choice!! First impressions were as expected, it is a typical old style and traditional hotel and we did receive a very welcoming greeting from reception. The first room that we were offered did not go down well, it was small, poky... More
