Holiday Inn Express EXETER - CITY CENTRE by IHG ★★★

📍 Tudor St, Exeter

"The rooms are clean and tidy, and the facilities are well-equipped. The location is excellent, making it convenient to walk to various parts of the city center. The only downside is that the parking fee is too expensive. It would be perfect if the parking were more affordable."

Leonardo Hotel Exeter
9.2 (160 reviews)

Leonardo Hotel Exeter ★★★★

📍 Western Wy, Exeter

"The hotel is in a good location for a city centre stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Reception excellent. Bar staff excellent, restaurant staff excellent. The room was very clean and well laid out. Tea and coffee making in the room. Bed was very comfortable. The room was cleaned during our visit, bed made, cups replaced, etc. We were on the 5th floor and the lift was always available, although it was quiet. We ate at the hotel on the first night and the food was very tasty with quite a good selection, as well as a good selection of drinks at the bar. We were advised of a special offer if we joined the Leonardo Advantage Club of 15% off drinks and food, when paying off a tab which really helped. We booked a breakfast for the first morning. Breakfast is buffet style with all sorts of juices, coffee, cereals, yoghurts, etc. It was a very good selection for this size of hote. Breakfast was served between 7:00am and 11:00 am and our only criticism was that when we got to breakfast at 10:00am, some of the hot buffet items were warm going on cold. We were told that this was a problem with the hotplates but we felt that the hot food should have been checked more thoroughly. To the hotels credit, we were compensated for the breakfast problem. All in all we had a great 2 night stay and would stay at this hotel again."

Mill on the Exe ★★★★

📍 Bonhay Rd, Exeter

"We had booked for one night - would have been great to stay longer. The room was really lovely - spacious with a view of the river. Food was good - we had lunch and dinner there - and we had a really good night's sleep in the extremely comfortable bed."

Premier Inn Exeter Central St Davids
8.0 (54 reviews)

Premier Inn Exeter Central St Davids ★★★

📍 Bonhay Rd, Exeter

"A recently refurbished, and therefore vastly improved, hotel. Check-in was via the automated kiosk which actually worked; not my usual experience at Premier Inn. I did the new online check-in in the app and did expect the app to function as my room key, but it doesn’t look like Premier Inn have caught up with that yet. The room itself was immaculately presented, looked and smelled fresh, everything worked. I do prefer the new style rooms, even over the previous new rooms which had a very dark furniture making it feel dated. Overall a good stay, no staff interaction as didn’t see any as didn’t use the restaurant. Breakfast has become expensive for an adult without children (who eat free, so essentially an adult is subsidising other people’s kids to eat at no cost) so ate locally, there’s a Costa directly opposite. Hotel was pricy, it was £115 for a night which I think anything over £100 for a Premier Inn is overpriced, but everywhere in Exeter that night was very expensive - it’s become a hugely expensive city post-pandemic and no more so than parking. The hotel has no car park, there is a train station car park opposite which is £15.20 for 24 hrs but if you use the overflow car park next door this is £12.20 so worth it for the extra few metres walk."

"Very good service and the food room as well got a good nights sleep"

Southernhay House Hotel Hotels in Exeter

Southernhay House Hotel

"In a class by itself in poor Exeter, this small hotel exceeds on a number of counts. Personal attention from a local staff and on-site owner, beautiful curated rooms, outstanding breakfasts, perfect location for walkers (taxi from train station), private garden- quiet and green. It’s an historic home, 1805, of an East Indian company captain, with fabulous eclectic collection of paintings. The man, William Kirkpatrick, is highlighted in hotel literature, but full appreciation of his singular life requires reading the biography chapter of William Dalrymple’s White Mughals ( itself a revelation and delight). If life brings you to Devon, simply sleep here. Rooms require stair climbing."

"Had a wander down here while staying in Bampton. It didn't have much to offer for the length of the walk, so we sadly didn't return. The barman was lovely and served us well, but then all we could hear was him complaining about his job to other customers, which let him down. Maybe had it been busier the atmosphere would have a bit more inviting."

"Behind us is David's Church and a small area of ​​tombstones. It was a bit scary to see them when we arrived at night, but I participated in church activities during the day, and understood the local culture. I also found the culture shock quite interesting. In the following days, I would walk through the cemetery to take a shortcut."

"The room was spacious and had air conditioning, and the cleanliness was good! The location is excellent, about a 15-minute walk to the city center! The hotel also included breakfast, and while it wasn't a huge spread, the taste was still quite good."

Hotel Indigo EXETER by IHG ★★★★
"I love the design of this hotel—it's a dream come true for William Morris fans! One thing to note: the hotel is located on a pedestrian-only high street, meaning cars cannot access the front entrance. The nearest taxi stand is at least a 10-minute walk away, which may not be ideal for guests with large luggage. However, Uber can drop you off near the shops, about a 6-minute walk from the hotel."

"I didn’t stay the night, but on a night when trains were stopped everywhere, I didn’t know what I was doing and I needed a drink. I thought it would be chaos but I sat in a corner and it was oddly peaceful. The staff were lovely. A lady with brunette hair and glasses cleared my table and was very polite and smiley. A tall bald man served me and asked how I was doing. I appreciated the peaceful and friendly environment in the madness, while I figured out what I was doing. Thank you."

Holiday Inn Express EXETER EAST by IHG ★★★
"The room itself was fine, but I noticed there was serious fibreglass in the air in my room. I saw it floating in the air and when I came home to do my laundry, it was all over my clothes and my skin was extremely irritated for the next day or two. That’s honestly the only issue i had with the hotel. Staff overall were nice and relatively helpful."
