Quiet, very clean and comfortable hotel with a good self-service breakfast. Good blackout curtain in bedroom to keep out early morning light. Windows will open. Good lighting. Great location in quiet part of city centre, opposite Exeter Central station and castle gardens. Unlike many hotels nowadays, they service the rooms daily. Luggage storage is efficient.

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.

    Revisiting the place where I was born, which I do from time to time. I have never stayed in a Toby Inn before but I would thoroughly recommend it. Large car park plus outdoor dining and plenty of room inside. Nice friendly bar staff. Clean and tidy.

    Beautiful city.

    Beautiful city. We are very interested in history and architecture so it was full of interest for us. We loved the cathedral, the small churches dotted round in the centre and St Nicholas Priory, which by very good luck was open while we were there. Lots of good places to eat. We recommend Herbie's, which is a vegetarian restaurant.

    This is a relatively new hotel in the city centre. Perfectly placed to enjoy all that Exeter has to offer. The staff were (mostly) excellent and extremely friendly. I bracketed 'mostly' as there was one member behind the bar who I found to be a tad patronising. The room was excellent and the bathroom exceeded expectations, large walk in shower, marble sink etc etc. I would highly recommend this hotel, we will definitely stay there on our next visit to Exeter.

    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.
