Leonardo Hotel Exeter

10/10 Excellent

"Great service from the front desk, restaurant, maintenance team and bar staff."

St Andrews Hotel

8/10 Good

"Close to the Uni; parking, clean rooms, breakfast included; good price; check-in convenience"

Queens Court Hotel

8/10 Good

"Close to centre Exeter, excellent breakfast, very friendly staff"

Holiday Inn Express Exeter - City Centre by IHG

8/10 Good

"The room was Spotless. The bed waa comfortable- pillows a bit solid for me. Bathroom good but after showering the walk in shower water covered the floor making use of basin and toilet a bit hazardous. Breakfast was good and food regularly replenished."

Mercure Exeter Southgate Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location with parking. Big clean room and comfy bed. Nice pool, hot tub and mini gym. Helpful staff on the front desk"

Hotel Du Vin Exeter

8/10 Good

"The room was lovely and the offer of a free drink in the bar in exchange for no housekeeping is clever. Such a good idea. Unfortunately the wedding in the hotel on Saturday night dominated all the communal areas of the hotel which meant that we couldn’t have the nightcap in the bar we were hoping for, as well as there being the thumping of the music from the wedding in our room until well after 11pm. Had we known yet the bar area would be pretty much out of action to other guests we might have chosen to stay elsewhere."

White Hart, Exeter by Marston's Inns

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel and staff all round brilliant"

The City Gate Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. lovely beer garden lovely bar lovely property really nice rooms"

Townhouse Exeter

8/10 Good

"Central location, bright and welcoming room. The breakfast was especially good, and everyone we met was very friendly. My only minor negative point was the size of the "double" bed, which, while very comfortable, was a little on the small side."
