Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Staff were fantastic, could not do more to help you. Food was lovely. Room was very basic, but clean, only thing I would suggest is to place fans in the room as it was extremely hot. Other than that I would stay there again.
We stayed at Livermead House while attending a special event. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. Dinner and breakfast were excellent. Recommended.
The first room we were given was not up to 3 star standard.
We contacted reception the next morning and they were very considerate and we were offered an alternative room that was more acceptable. The location, food and the staff were excellent. We hope to return.

Lovely friendly hotel, limited on amenities, for example no air con or fan, budget tea and coffee making, but staff and atmosphere made the day! Would go again even knowing this and only having 4 hours sleep due to heat in room 👍
Lovely hotel. The only comment I would make is that the hotel is very old dashioned and could do with a bit of updating.
It was great value for money.

Great staff very accommodating & very helpful. Rooms were small but ample size as didnt plan to stay in all day & room looked as if it had been recently painted. Too cold for the pool when we stayed but did jump in the hot tub & sauna. Definitely would stay here again
Care to spot the entrance to the hotel is needed, as the road is busy. The hotel is comfortable. We had a problem finding the room, as the numbers of the rooms aren’t sequential. It would be useful to be told that when checking in as it was confusing. We attended a concert and it was lovely to have a room and avoid an hour’s drive home afterwards.
We had a lovely 1 night stay. The staff were very friendly and welcoming . Room had a lovely view though was a little tired looking. But was still very clean and comfortable.
It was nice that they dont charge extra for parking and there was plenty of space. When we asked if we could takr breakfast in the room, the staff were so lovely and brought it to us. Pool was refreshing - we didn't feel rushed to leave. Would definitely visit this hotel again.
The staff were great.
The property is fantastic, there is scaffolding on the back of the building where but you hardly know there is work going on.
We enjoyed our breif stay, and will stay again, and when we do, it will not be booked through Expedia.

Very old needs repairs decorating only stayed the 2 nites.there was a large group of very elderly people there all talking about their medical problems at the dinner tables all the time just like a nursing home.!! Glad to get out of there!!
This staff treated us like family. The manager helped us get medical care, even loaned us his personal phone. The night manager supplied us with ice to handle pain.
Dinner was amazing. All staff, including the kitchen staff and chefs, literally stood outside to wave goodbye to the seniors on the buses every day!!
On arrival, the receptionist seemed to have a negative attitude and was far from welcoming. Two nights booked and paid in advance, but left after one. I never read the bit about paying to park (£5 per night) or breakfast. No fan in the bedroom, but could upgrade for an additional £60. We have stayed in many Torbay hotels over the last 40 years, but will never return to this one.
