Genuinely the best place we've stayed at without considering the price. We've stayed at places twice the price and this place is better. We have friends in Exeter and we will be staying here every time we visit. Massive pool with plenty of lanes. Plenty of space, there's a bar/lounge and a golf club restaurant next door which was amazing.

This intimate hotel is set in a Grade II listed Georgian gentleman's residence in central Exeter.

It was close to the Cathedral which is why I booked it. I loved the history of the house and grand but homely feel of the place. The breakfast was delicious and I would recommend it especially with the added mushrooms. I had tofu, roast tomatoes, spinach and large field mushrooms on sourdough. You don't have to be a vegetarian to like this!!

A Host of History
Set around the Exe River, affluent Exeter has played a part in English history from the Roman era to William the Conqueror to the Spanish Armada. Its most impressive structure is the cathedral, begun in the 11th century and boasting the longest stone roof in England.
The surrounding green is a popular picnic spot, and the half-timbered buildings and red-brick façades of the neighbouring High Street house a host of shops. Even more are in the Princesshay and Guildhall shopping centres.
The Guildhall itself is considered England’s oldest municipal building still in use, while nearby Parliament Street is one of the world’s narrowest streets. The remains of 11th-century St Nicholas Priory are now a museum, and there are more red-stone ruins at hilltop Exeter Castle (or Rougemont Castle), built into the Roman walls.
Exeter Central Station is behind the castle, while St Davids Station is nearer the university. The large student population means that the city has good nightlife, and some bars are located by the Quayside, site of Custom House. The river flows past Topsham and Powderham Castle to enter the sea at Exmouth.
To the east are Exeter Airport and the Westpoint Arena exhibition centre, both easily reached from Booking.com’s hotels with spas, cheap apartments and guest houses with parking.
First time visiting Exeter. A lovely city. Lots of interesting places, especially round the Quay area, and many classy shops and cafes. Its also within easy reach of Topsham, which is very quaint, and had lovely cafes and bars. The Firehouse is an excellent trendy eating place there. We just walked into Exeter, but it has plenty of parking places. We also visited Dawlish, another quaint town, with a great pie shop. Exmouth and Budleigh Salterton are also interesting. Our grandchildren loved the picturesque golf course at Exminster, and nearby Turf pub, which you can drive or cycle to, which is open only during the day, as parking is difficult, but its friendly, and serves good food. The Mill on the Exe is next to the property, and serves good food and has comfortable seating, and friendly staff. Also The Prospect Inn on the Quay has great food, and a buzz about it. There are several real ale places on the Quay in Exeter, and pizza vans nearby.

Exeter is a medieval city with Roman remains, and although bombed during WWII it retains many unusual features. Like all uk provincial cities the economic climate has hit hard, however there is still lots to enjoy. Foodies will love STAGE a new restaurant in Magdalen Rd which is exceptional and I predict it will be incredibly successful. Exeter cathedral is wonderful.There’s also the beautiful river Exe that opens out to the Estuary town of Topsham, well worth a visit, the quay area in Exeter is interesting with many historical features. Exploring the area on foot and enjoying foodie venues off the beaten track is the secret to a fun visit.

I am a bit biased because I grew up in Exeter but I was very pleasantly surprised by the new shopping centre with great restaurants and coffee houses yet preserving the history. There was definitely a buzz about the place.

Went to visit a relative never been to Exeter before and only there for one day, much bigger than I thought it would be with lots of tourist and places to see.
Will definitely go for longer next time.
The high street had no closed shops and stores open that have been closed in other cities and a lovely John Lewis, lovely place to eat.
Buses frequently and Taxis easy to locate if needed.
Are at the Brew Dog . Nice burgers own brewed lagers for nice.
The Quayside has lots of independent craft shops and places to eat and grab a coffee, would think a lovely place to visit in the summer. Will return

Only stayed for one night but had a lovely evening in the town, visiting the Ivy for dinner and the Christmas markets. Plenty of shops if we'd had time to explore more and would love to go back to visit the cathedral.
Managed to walk around very easily and there's a good atmosphere in the centre.

We went with a group of friend's to visit the excellent Christmas Market and had a 2 night stay.
Lovelly hotel. Great location. Good breakfast.
Totally let down by the hotel bar. Service very very slow. Kept running out of beer, no pino grigot, ran out of plymouth gin, ran out of Jamesons, ran out of brandy. Bar was poorly stocked. Same on day 2. Coffee machine broke down. Kind of spoilt our visit.
WE booked for three, so we were given two bedrooms. Both rooms had a wonderful view of the city laid out over the hill. There was plenty of tea/coffee options in the room. The location of The Telstar is great, just a short walk from Exeter St David's and the city centre. It was also within walking distance of the University where we were headed. We opted for the breakfast which was wholesome and delicious! I quite liked their green initiatives. I would say our stay was cosier than if we had stayed at a hotel.
The radio playing soft music on arrival was a nice touch, especially late in the day, when it gives a relaxing mood for the arriving guest.
The location is very conveniently located halfway between for Exeter St Davids station and the Exeter town centre, and is very quiet at night. The building itself is a pleasant one too. The single room I stayed in was compact (shower only no bath) but adequate.
I was made very welcome on arrival and the gentleman on the desk could not have been more helpful.
The breakfast could not be faulted with a selection of food en-par with the best of hotels.
I am disabled so the location was a little difficult and being on a rather dangerous corner, I had to walk down the hill as it was difficult for the taxi to stop immediately outside.
Great location in Exeter; a short walk from the town centre and a Vue Cinema within a few feet.
The hotel is super clean and airy and the rooms are a good size. The breakfast was superb.
The best thing about the hotel is the staff, everyone so happy and enjoying their jobs. Nothing was too much trouble and all staff genuinely enjoyed being at work and supporting others.
Excellent city centre location. Rooms was well equipped - with nice touches. Very comfortable bed and super clean room. It is s above a pub and on the main thoroughfare in Exeter so some noise from the street to be expected. Value for money for city centre room was excellent. We used a local overnight city centre car park which was safe and reasonably priced.
Lovely decorated hotel, smelled lovely. Teenagers loved the gym and kept them busy for an hour. Staff friendly. The rooms were spacious and clean.
Right in the centre of Exeter. Lots of restaurants nearby and a really old pub just round the corner The ship fantastic location for the Cathedral could get a peak from our room.
Room was furnished in a contemporary style at the front of the hotel overlooking the car park with a lovely en-suite & shower. There were coffee making facilities & TV. It was in a great location for walking into the centre of Exeter.
Breakfast was excellent, good choice from a buffet table & hot food cooked to order.
The room was excellent: clean, well designed, comfy bed, free coffee and tea, nice toiletries provided. The staff were also very nice and helpful. Previously I stayed at another hotel in Exeter and while this was a few pounds more per night it was miles above my previous hotel.
So easy to find off motorway, ideal with parking/park and ride option into city centre on doorstep! Friendly staff, room was spacious, clean and had all facilities needed to make it an enjoyable stay! Perfect for visiting uni student/viewing uni or just exploring Exeter!
My room was spacious, clean and comfortable.
Breakfast was lovely and good value for money, staff serving with a great smile.
The hotel is well positioned near the old city of Exeter.
Car parking is available and free of charge.
WiFi works everywhere across the hotel.
Just the perfect location for the city centre and above the best pub in central Exeter. The room was so lovely and especially the added bonus of a coffee machine. So many nice things about the room, but make special mention of the Ritual of Karma products.
The accommodation is close to the center of Exeter, a short walk to the downtown. The apartment is spacious and bright. Sheena was a great host, answering all our questions within few minutes. This was the best accommodation we had on our tour of England.
we have stayed in this hotel many times and always enjoyed this this beautiful historical hotel.
The location is brilliant a short walk into the town centre and Exeter and train station .
Staff always helpful.
We will be back .
Very good location in the City Centre. And the pub/bar remains an attractive venue - it hasn't changed in years and I don't regard that as a bad thing. The White Hart has a bit more character than the big chain hotels.
Room was nice and quiet. The hotel was generally exceptionally good value. I was sceptical about the location as it seemed a long way outside Exeter, but in fact it was only a 15 minute drive right into the city.
Cheap room perfect for a stop off on the way to Cornwall. The rooms are a lot nicer inside than outside the hotel. Big comfy bed and adequate bathroom. Free parking short drive to Exeter city centre
I have stayed several times at this hotel, conveniently placed near Exeter airport, always clean and comfortable. Only thing missing on this occasion was the shuttle bus.
