The Devon Hotel

8/10 Good

Cathedral Yard - Art Deco Luxury Apartment with Iconic Exeter Cathedral Views

10/10 Excellent

"Beautifully decorated spacious apartment where you step out the front door on to the Cathedral Green. Right in the centre of Exeter with shopping, food and drinks all close by. Great as a base to travel to other Devon attractions. All facilities you could need including washing machine & dishwasher. Would stay here again It was a lovely shower but lacked the power to truly impress."

The Telstar

8/10 Good

"Staff were friendly and helpful. Parking was free! Breakfast was great - loved the sausages! The road was a little noisy but we did have window open and we were a bit warm despite there being a little fan in room. Great location as was walkable to city centre, train station and the quayside. Would recommend"

St Andrews Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice independent hotel. As others have mentioned the noise from the road is so loud and constant. But if you have some decent ear plugs that shouldn't stop you staying here. Great location for dinner at the Quay and free parking. O ly slight downside was having to pay £10 for a lost room card whilst standing watching them put a newpiece of plastic in the machine to allocate to room. This shouldn't really be £10 as the rooms are probably expensive enough. I'd probably stay again but mainly because of the location and parking. Staff are pleasant enough. Breakfast ok - altho the sausages were as cheap as chips."

Cathedral View - Luxury Exeter City Apartment with Cathedral Views

10/10 Excellent

"This is a perfect location and great views. Very quiet bedroom. Terrific way to visit Exeter."
