Exeter Rougemont hotel by Sunday ★★★★

📍 Queen St, Exeter

"The hotel is a lovely historical building and in a great location with friendly, welcoming staff. I found the rooms to be spacious and comfortable while at the same time being well-equipped with a fan, and iron and a hairdryer. While bottles of water are no longer provided, free water is offered at reception."

📍 Western Wy, Exeter

Exeter Court Hotel ★★★

📍 Kennford, Exeter

"We had a lovely stay, everything worked and the Staff were all very helpful and polite. It did what a hotel for the night was ment to."

Mill on the Exe
8.8 (79 reviews)

Mill on the Exe ★★★★

📍 Bonhay Rd, Exeter

"We had a lovely 4 night stay at the Mill on the Exe whilst in town for the Women’s Rugby World Cup. The quiet location along the river offers easy access to the path into Flowerpot Park as well as fairly direct access to St. Bartholomew’s and the High Street via the Barbican Steps. The on site parking in a small private terrace was part of our reason for booking initially, but we were satisfied on all fronts. Our room was comfortable and spacious, with a window looking out on the Exe and a cozy aesthetic. The staff were always excellent and accommodating, providing logistics help when we needed to print updated parking passes for the rugby matches and greeting us warmly throughout. Housekeeping even double checked with us that we had fresh milk in the mini-fridge to accompany any tea or coffee we made in the room. We ate breakfast each day in the restaurant, served by the always friendly and efficient Nick, and found each dish delicious. (Our favorites were the smoked salmon toast and the smashed avocado toast, but the full English was also excellent.) On the final night of our stay, we made a reservation for dinner and enjoyed Sunday roast dinner as well as their absolute top of the line sticky toffee pudding, with friendly service and good recommendations by Cicely. We would absolutely recommend a stay at the Mill—as well as their dining experience—if you’re visiting Exeter."

The Gissons Hotel ★★★

📍 Exeter Road, Exeter, Exeter

"easy to get taxi to town from location"

Travelodge Exeter M5
8.0 (45 reviews)

Travelodge Exeter M5 ★★★

📍 Moto Service Area, Sandygate Roundabout, Exeter

"Just off M5, very convenient place if you either transit the south of the country or you want to visit Exeter but prefer to stay away for the city. We had a family room which was spacious and clean. The beds were clean and fresh and the bathroom was spotless. We also had a complimentary fan as it was really warm so all together helped us have an amazing night sleep. On the arrival we was welcomed by the receptionist Sophie. The check-in was really quick and she also registered our car for free parking for the time we was booked at the hotel. I would also like to thank to the other receptionist (I don't know her name unfortunately) she was working during our second night and she provided more milk for the morning drinks. I was concerned about the noise coming from the motorway but I was pleasantly surprised not to bother us. Yes you can hear it, mostly at day time as you are by a major motorway, but it's definitely not extreme. Inside the hotel the noise level was minimal even at day time when the house keeping team were cleaning the rooms. The only little downside was finding out that the Bar and Grill next door is closed. I don't know if it was under the same management but in my opinion would make a positive difference if reopened. We had a great stay with no issues and we highly recommend this hotel."

The Exeter Inn

"We met friends here for a delicious weekday lunch. Lovely, welcoming landlady and the pub had a warm atmosphere with various smallish rooms, a larger restaurant and a selection of interesting paintings and old photos. The lunch menu was excellent value with a good choice of meals. We enjoyed fish and chips and a vegan burger - an Amazing £13 for a main course with a drink..... Definitely deserves to be a regular meeting spot!"

"Weeke Barton is a beautiful getaway – the hosts are so friendly, the space so warm and the food so tasty. I would recommend it to anyone wanting a calm and cosy break, with fantastic walks and a beautiful coast nearby."

The Telstar Hotels in Exeter

The Telstar

"The hotel is very close to the station, so it was not difficult even with my carrier. The hotel staff was very friendly and tried to provide me with good service. The hotel room was nice, but the shared bathroom was inconvenient. Of course, there weren't many guests and it wasn't crowded, so I didn't have any inconvenience in using the bathroom, but it was a little inconvenient to have to leave the room to use the bathroom. Other than that, the hotel breakfast was good, and everything else was good."

Route 2 Apartments

"We had a fabulous stay in the Monmouth apartment. Beautiful, light and airy in the heart of Topsham near the Quay perfect for a quick pint at the LighterInn. Highly recommend this as an escape from the city. I wish I could stay for longer. Well equipped, clean apartment with a nautical theme and the breakfast in the cafe was wonderful. The staff were very kind and welcoming, already planning my next trip here!"

Leonardo Hotel Exeter ★★★★
"Hotel clean, breakfast had a god variety of food location is great. Unfortunately we had an issue outside our bedroom which I reported to reception in the morning as I feel it is a security issue. In the middle of the night we had a man knock on our door and he tried to get in. He was walking up and down the corridor and appeared to be drunk. He then lay outside our room and fell asleep. About 30 minutes later we heard him again knock on another door. Although we think he was probably a resident it did concern us as anyone could get access to the bedrooms as there is no security to get up the stairs. There is no swipe card access and I think this needs to be addressed as it is a safety concern."

"The staff as always were very polite and friendly. We have used this hotel many times and it is now beginning to look tired and in need of an uplift. particularly in the garden areas around entrance doors to the blocks. However we will be back"

Holiday Inn Express EXETER EAST by IHG ★★★
"Booked at a good price in breakfast. Hotel complied with the room request which was delightful.. Staff friendly and room clean and good size. Only issue being the outside noise coming thru the closed window... A nearby car doing donuts nearby for 15 mins around 1am in the night. Parking cost is additional which is unfortunate esp as they charge a discounted rate of 7 pounds... The near located steakhouse is way too expensive for the meals it offers..."

Hotel Indigo EXETER by IHG ★★★★
"The hotel's location is excellent, right next to the cathedral in the city center. It has a rooftop bar, and there are many good restaurants nearby. However, the hygiene is quite average. I'm not sure if there were bugs, and the bed sheets sometimes had black stains, even after they were changed. Also, they placed the bath mat and body towels together, which was uncomfortable. There was one housekeeper, a blonde middle-aged woman, whose service was very poor. When she saw I was non-white, her expression was very subtle, as if serving a non-white person was something very embarrassing for her. And she didn't change the bed sheets as I requested. But the front desk staff were all very friendly, and the hotel room facilities were also good. It's just the hygiene and housekeeping service that could be much better."
