Holiday Inn Express Exeter East, an IHG Hotel, hotel in Exeter

The staff very nice and welcoming. Great hotel has a carpark. The breakfast wasn't hot, hot, hot by the time you seat down to eat, but it was nice. The restaurant near by was good to have, as we came back late and thought, lets check it out so we didn't have to go back into town for dinner. The Hotel is close to the motorway so easy get away when checked out.

FAQs about hotels in Exeter









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.

    Exeter quay is vibrant, attractive and a lovely area to visit. We walked along the canal whilst others paddled to a lovely pub called double locks. Lunch was excellent at the pub. Evening at local gin distillery- quayside gins which again was excellent. Only stayed one night but would highly recommend.

    First time visiting Exeter. A lovely city.

    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.

    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

    Best hotel breakfast ever! Location perfect for walking into Exeter. Hotel is in a beautiful square of period properties. Free overnight parking in public car park immediately outside hotel entrance - metered charge from 0800 hours - very convenient! Numerous eating establishments within short walk - the hotel helpfully provides a list for those who need it. Would have absolutely book this hotel again if my wife and I were visiting this area. A perfect overnight stay! Highly recommended.

    This is a very basic hotel offering a comfortable bed a reasonable bathroom and little else. We didn’t meet anyone in the hotel. Entrance was via a key box. No food available. The main advantage is that it is in easy walking distance of Exeter airport and we had an early flight. So it met that particular need well and there were no comparable alternatives. Not somewhere to stay for more than one might

    The property is a handy walking distance from Exeter St David’s Station, although, be warned, it is pretty much steeply uphill a lot of the way! I booked a superior double room and I was not disappointed. The room was spacious and lovely! The hotel is ideally located within easy walking distance of the city centre. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. I would most definitely stay here again.

    The location of this Pub Inn is really good, close to the town centre and sights. About a 25 minute walk from St David's station or a 10 minute taxi ride. Both the hotel and bar staff are super friendly and helpful. I was a little concerned as I hadn't stayed in a Pub Inn before but it was great value for money.
