Top Royal Albert Museum and Art Gallery Hotel Reviews

Leonardo Hotel Exeter

10/10 Excellent

"Nice plqc3"

Townhouse Exeter

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely rooms, central for trains and city centre, but quiet."

Holiday Inn Express Exeter - City Centre by IHG

8/10 Good

"comfortable room with good breakfast"

Mill on the Exe

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is part of a stunning pub overlooking the river with an outdoor patio and garden tables. There is guaranteed allocated parking (one per hotel room) which is ideal. The room was incredibly cosy and well-decorated, with modern coffee machine and tea making facilities. The staff were incredibly lovely and helpful. Having dinner down at the pub was a great extra and it was delicious."

Exeter Rougemont hotel by Sunday

8/10 Good

"Spacious with a substantial bar and dining room, centrally located, opposite Exeter Central station with train, bus and taxi connections to Exeter St David's."

Queens Court Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location and we will stay again. Breakfast was excellent x"

White Hart, Exeter by Marston's Inns

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location between the city centre and the quayside, ideal car parking, great room, really nice bar and restaurant, will definitely stay here again when we go back to Exeter"

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."

Southernhay House Hotel

8/10 Good

"We got the largest room they had. It was literally an apartment across the street on the basement level. Right outside the bedroom was a walkway/pedestrian route and people walked by all day and all night. Definitely wouldn't recommend that room even though it was extremely spacious. The people working the hotel were friendly."
