I stayed at the Revere for 5 days in August. It is simply a wonderful place to stay...it's warm, friendly, atmospheric and the staff are fantastic. The room was very comfortable, with great beds and a nice bathroom which had a bath and a very good shower. The well-stocked tea tray had plenty of hot chocolate...my favourite! And tea and coffee as well. I was pleased to see that the beds had a top sheet as well as a duvet as it was very hot when I stayed and I could throw the duvet off. Other hotels please take note! The wi-fi was excellent...I used it A LOT, and it always worked. And unlike a previous reviewer, I was able to close the window despite the vines. My room (Room 7) was at the front of the hotel but it wasn't particularly noisy with the windows closed. I should imagine the rooms at the back would be quieter, though.
I ate in both the Candlelight restaurant and Doran's and they were both excellent. The staff were very friendly too.
The location is fantastic...in the town centre near the shops, etc.
If you are looking for a modern hotel with long, brightly-lit, characterless corridors then the Revere is not for you. It is a very old, rabbit-warren type of building with loads of character and charm. I loved it and I will be back.
