Top 10 Exeter Cathedral Hotels

It's very good. It's worth recommending. It's very good. My friends like it very much. Next time, I'll take my family to check in. Breakfast is rich, transportation is convenient, and the couple's attitude is also very good.

Value for money indeed. Never expect such a spacious and well-refurbished room at such an amazing price. Would recommend it to anyone who visit Exeter since it’s located exactly at the city centre and within 10 or 15 minutes walk from both railway stations.

Booked this as a stopover on our way down to Padstow. What a fantastic find! Staff were second to none, Jane and Scott so helpful, couldn’t do enough for us. Best pancakes ever for breakfast but plenty of choice. My husband was taken ill on our last morning and Mike, the General Manager, was both helpful and kind. Great room for us and our dog with amazing view of the river. Plenty of tables outside to fully appreciate the view.

We stayed here two nights while touring a bigger area of Devon. We arrived early, and had lunch on their patio. Had a nice room and breakfast two mornings. Nice selection of food, nice staff, clean rooms. Unfortunately, the two elevators weren't working the first evening after we had gone to our room. Fixed the next day. Close to walk to the cathedral and nice places to eat. We would stay there again.

Being used to the likes of other budget hotel chains when on business trips I was looking forward to my stay however feel let down given the prestigious reputation of the Mercure brand. The hotel building itself is beautiful and the room was modern in decor, however unfortunately the building fabric had not been modernised leading to an uncomfortable night. The room was very warm with a single window that only opened slightly and no air conditioning/fan provided. Even on a cold September night the room was uncomfortably warm into the early hours. My room was positioned opposite what seemed to be the kitchen/some sort of generator/heater which kicked in at 6am in the morning waking me up as the window had to remain open to keep the room cool. The range of breakfast was good (cooked breakfast, pastries, cereals, continental), but sadly the quality was quite poor. Despite being the first person at 8am on a Sunday the food was cold overall and the sausages and bacon were very tough and leathery. The staff on every interaction were helpful and polite, especially the receptionist when checking in. Overall a disappointing stay and sadly not the first poor experience at an Accor hotel.

Me and my friend stayed here in June , was looking forward to staying but wished we hadn’t . We arrived and found a parking spot round the back which was fine . The outside gardens are lovely but the hole building looked like it needed a complete refurb outside and in . Very dated everywhere . We liked the spa area that was ok and the outdoor pool . Our room was awful , we stayed in a twin room . There was holes in the bedsheets , loads of stains on the carpet . Dusty and dirty . The bathroom floor creaked badly and there was no proper shower just a mixer tap over the bath that didn’t work very well and you couldn’t adjust the temperature as the cold tap didn’t work . The doors to go out to the balcony didn’t shut properly and were warped so you had to slam it shut . They were dirty and badly needed replacing . We were unknown to us next door to a family living at the hotel and they started hoovering at 10.45pm waking us up and being nosey through the night , nothing was done by reception. Breakfast would have been ok but I nearly broke my tooth on a stone they blamed it on the mushrooms ! No apologies after complaining to reception , got told management would phone me but they didn’t . If you want a tatty dirty hotel then stay here if you don’t then stay well away as they don’t do anything about complaints no compensation, no communication at all !
