Fabulous hotel with fantastic staff - especially the lady who welcomes you to breakfast, ask her anything, if she doesn’t know ( which she probably does) she will find out. Food was great and there is a popular bakery attatched - do try the amazing donuts! Location was perfect, harbour across the road, town a 5 minute walk away with most attractions walkable or a short taxi ride away.

We stayed here for five nights and it was amazing. The room is in excellent condition. The hotel was always clean. The receptionists were very professional and courteous. The breakfast was the usual continental breakfast. I really enjoys the food at the Le Kock restaurant. Jazz music on Monday nights..very entertaining. Highly recommended.

They say first impressions count for everything and here it is really true. The 2 ladies on the reception were so incredibly friendly and helpful despite the fact we were 3 hours early to check in. One of them showed me the car park as I was a little unsure if I would be able to park a 4X4 down there (I could and did). They went above and beyond to help us. The property itself is inviting and warm with very clean rooms (we stayed in a suite which included parking). The bakery was incredible (DEIG) and so was the restaurant. We'd stay here again next time for sure

Exeter staff are incredibly warm and helpful, rooms are clean and spacious enough for two, location is convenient to buses and tours, very walkable to the harbor area and its surroundings, and having Le Kock downstairs for breakfast buffet and its delicious burger menu and bar made for a fantastic stay. For a hotel in a semi-busy location with nightlife, no issues really with any noise outside the property. We stayed 2x at this hotel and would again if in Reyjkavik.
