Hotel Indigo EXETER by IHG
9.1 (62 reviews)

Hotel Indigo EXETER by IHG ★★★★

📍 3 Catherine St, Exeter

"I love the design of this hotel—it's a dream come true for William Morris fans! One thing to note: the hotel is located on a pedestrian-only high street, meaning cars cannot access the front entrance. The nearest taxi stand is at least a 10-minute walk away, which may not be ideal for guests with large luggage. However, Uber can drop you off near the shops, about a 6-minute walk from the hotel."

Mr & MRS Smith Weeke Barton ★★★★

📍 Bridford, Exeter

"We wanted to get some time away as I am always overseas, so this wonderful retreat was perfect to get away and unwind for a few days. The room was cosy and warm, beautiful views across the moors and gardens, wonderful homely feel to the place and not like a hotel which was lovely. Breakfast was healthy and all made from local producers and the wine was made in the vineyard next door! Jo and Sam were lovely hosts and made you feel so welcome. I would highly recommend the Weeke Barton to my friends and colleagues and will be returning in the New Year for sure!! Pete and Jo xx"

Travelodge Exeter M5 Hotels in Exeter

Travelodge Exeter M5

"Room was fine and clean and in a convenient location . The issue was I received a PCN ticket for my stay amounting to £100,due to the receptionist not inputting my Car details correctly. As the machine was facing away and behind the counter I couldn't check the details entered so relied on her to do it correctly which it wasn't and subsequently received a PCN. I contacted Travelodge directly to get them to contact groupnexus to cancel the ticket but they said they couldn't and so have to go through their appeal process to see if it can be cancelled. It's not an ideal situation and a warning to other guests staying at the hotel"

South View Lodges Hotels in Exeter

South View Lodges

"This  location ticked all our boxes when booking: fishing holiday for husband's 50th, relaxing for me with hot tub and quiet location. Jill and Andrew were welcoming, and nothing was too much trouble (not that we had many queries). First let me stay considering it is so close to Exeter. Although opened 2 years ago, the decor was as pristine as the website images. Both bedrooms were beautifully decorated, with comfy beds and en-suite bathrooms and had underfloor heating throughout the property. The lounge, dining area and kitchen were all nicely decorated and had everything that you needed for the comforts from home. The outside seating  and hot tub were undercover so even when it did rain, we could enjoy it still.  The fishing was everything my husband hoped for, catching 10+ fish each day.  And to add to our enjoyment, we had alpacas in the field next to us. They came to watch us each day and we took advantage to go feed them one day: the boys, the girls and the babies. All too cute, and an Devon Show Awarding male as well! A treat. A great holiday and everything we wanted from it! "

Leonardo Hotel Exeter ★★★★
"The hotel is in a good location for a city centre stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Reception excellent. Bar staff excellent, restaurant staff excellent. The room was very clean and well laid out. Tea and coffee making in the room. Bed was very comfortable. The room was cleaned during our visit, bed made, cups replaced, etc. We were on the 5th floor and the lift was always available, although it was quiet. We ate at the hotel on the first night and the food was very tasty with quite a good selection, as well as a good selection of drinks at the bar. We were advised of a special offer if we joined the Leonardo Advantage Club of 15% off drinks and food, when paying off a tab which really helped. We booked a breakfast for the first morning. Breakfast is buffet style with all sorts of juices, coffee, cereals, yoghurts, etc. It was a very good selection for this size of hote. Breakfast was served between 7:00am and 11:00 am and our only criticism was that when we got to breakfast at 10:00am, some of the hot buffet items were warm going on cold. We were told that this was a problem with the hotplates but we felt that the hot food should have been checked more thoroughly. To the hotels credit, we were compensated for the breakfast problem. All in all we had a great 2 night stay and would stay at this hotel again."

Holiday Inn Express EXETER EAST by IHG ★★★
"The room itself was fine, but I noticed there was serious fibreglass in the air in my room. I saw it floating in the air and when I came home to do my laundry, it was all over my clothes and my skin was extremely irritated for the next day or two. That’s honestly the only issue i had with the hotel. Staff overall were nice and relatively helpful."

Holiday Inn Express EXETER - CITY CENTRE by IHG ★★★
"The rooms are clean and tidy, and the facilities are well-equipped. The location is excellent, making it convenient to walk to various parts of the city center. The only downside is that the parking fee is too expensive. It would be perfect if the parking were more affordable."

"We had a wonderful stay at Weeke Barton. Such a beautiful setting with everything so thoughtfully provided for. Our host, Jo, was very welcoming and considerate and the delightful way that she set up everything ready for our breakfast made my wife cry! It was lovely to be so well looked after. We would love to visit again."
