Rooms

Pool
Livermead House Hotel boasts an incredible pool area that includes an outdoor swimming pool with a Jacuzzi. Guests raved about the pool's lovely and clean waters, as well as the amazing views, especially when the gardens are lit up at night. However, the pool's temperature, advertised as heated, was colder than some found the sea. Lounge chairs and umbrellas need to be improved to spruce up the area.

The pool area with its beautiful grounds and beach nearby, makes this hotel a good choice for families and couples alike.

3 Star
Livermead House Hotel is a traditional, old-fashioned hotel suitable for a short break. However, the hotel is very dated and could do with a much-needed facelift. Guests have complained about peeling paint and tired decor, which hasn't been updated since the 1930s. Some reviewers found the hotel overpriced for the dated facilities and services provided. The menu was also described as overcomplicated and dated. Nevertheless, the hotel was considered clean and staff polite. Guests recommended installing mini-fridges and fans in bedrooms due to the stuffy rooms with no air conditioning. In summary, Livermead House Hotel is a hotel with a charming, bygone-era vibe, but it's in desperate need of an upgrade.

Accessible
Livermead House Hotel is a centrally located hotel that is convenient for travelling around town and is situated close to bus stops. However, it isn't very accessible for guests with mobility issues with small lifts that can only take two people at a time and no walk-in showers. Additionally, there is only one disabled parking space and the rooms are basic and small with no air conditioning or views. Some guests reported issues with the lifts breaking down.

Dog Friendly
Livermead House Hotel is a dog-friendly establishment that welcomes four-legged friends with open arms. The staff is warm and hospitable, making you and your furry companion feel right at home. However, some guests found the charge of £15 per night for the dog to be a bit steep. Despite this minor setback, the hotel provided a towel on the floor for your dog's comfort. The only downside mentioned by some guests was the noisy cooling fan. But all in all, the hotel accommodation met their expectations. Also, guests were delighted to see other dogs in the area and recommend that the hotel needs to note its dog-friendly feature on booking sites. If you're travelling with a little dog, like a Frenchie, you can be assured that they'll have a wonderful time at the Livermead House Hotel.
