Top Exeter Hotel Reviews

Hotel Indigo Exeter by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely hotel in a great location. A lovely welcome on reception also when we checked out. Our room was lovely and clean and a great decor. We really enjoyed our stay with you. We will certainly be looking at other indigo hotels if yours is anything to go by. When we are on our future travels. ls when w"

The Devon Hotel

8/10 Good

"The rooms were lovely, clean and spacious and the air conditioning was lovely during the hot weather. Breakfast was good, with a wide variety of options from fresh fruit, cereal, toast, pastries, hot cooked breakfast, fruit juice and tea and coffee. I do think the menu for the lunch evening food could have had more options and also the service could have been improved slightly. Although the staff were extremely friendly, unfortunately the service was quite slow, one evening we waited over 40 minutes for our meal. We had only been told about a long wait for the food after we had ordered our drinks and food, this should really have been advised as we entered the restaurant, not when we ordered. Overall it was a pleasant stay and I would return of ever in the area."

Mercure Exeter Southgate Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is ideally situated for both the charming quayside area and the city centre. Less than 10 minutes walk down a steep hill takes you to the river and canal with their restaurants. 10 minutes in the opposite direction gets you to the Cathedral. The hotel is well appointed and has a spacious car park (fees apply). Our room was very comfortable and nicely appointed, although there were some lighting faults that required repair."

voco Zeal Exeter Science Park by IHG

8/10 Good

"Room was lovely and just the right size for a short stay. Plenty of wardrobe space but no drawers (could do with adding one drawer under the wardrobe for smaller items). Restaurant was very spacious and light, breakfast was lovely, apart from the coffee in the machine (too strong for us). Car park doesn’t have enough spaces for the number of rooms but there was an overflow car park just opposite. Check in and check out was easy. No drink facilities in the room but our room was just around the corner from the drinks station on our floor. Plenty of choice and always fully stocked. Bar area was nice and comfy chairs, thru also have an outdoor terrace to have drinks on."
