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.

I went to college in Exeter 60 years ago because, at that time, I lived in Devon. So much has changed but I still liked it and we found everything we wanted. We have found that the further away from London the nicer the people, ie the West country and the north of England.

The Cathedral is worth a visit, and the tour guide gave us a lot of information. On Sunday, the visit is by donation, and comes with a guided tour as well. On any other day, I would happily have paid more for both. The Exeter Underground Passages tour is also worth a look. Everyone has to duck, though. Traffic was slow and difficult downtown, we were glad we walked there when we could

Easy to see Exeter on foot from our hotel as a flat 10 minutes walk into the centre. Leaflets available from the nearby museum for historic walks round the town. Cathedral a must see. Lots of excellent shops and restaurants. We used Apple taxis to get up to see family in the university. They were very quick and cheap. Do look out for the hills around the edge of Exeter, quite steep gradients in places. Try eating at On the Green overlooking the cathedral for lunch and Bella Italia for dinner.

I think we saw the important sights in Exeter during our one night stay. You could stay longer and venture more and further away given parking permits in and out travel, yet for us the closeness to center city and major sights was enough. Highly recommend hotel.

Exeter Cathedral tours and concert at night; Knightshayes Court, A la Ronde, the Museum of Dartmoor Life at Okehampton where Swift Taxis provided tour of five villages on edge of Dartmoor National Park where my ancestors lived and the younger generation emigrated to Australia. Disappointed that church at Ottery St Mary was closed. And would have liked cruise but some cease on 31 August.

We did not spend much time in Exeter but used it as a base to explore Devon. One day, we went north to Exmoor National Park, Ilfracombe and Westward Ho. The next day, we went south to Exmouth, Blackpool Sands and Torquay.

I wasn't expecting what felt like a boutique hotel, close to city centre for the money I paid. What a find! My room was a decent size, beautifully appointed and decorated, with antique furniture and tasteful art (see photos). The bathroom (which actually had a bath) was spacious and luxurious. I felt unexpectedly pampered and would recommend this a great option for visitors to Exeter (a charming city in itself).

An ale drinker's paradise, with a micro-brewery on site and a host of ales on tap, this city centre bar is a great social venue. But it is more than a bar; the accommodation is on a par with (and with superior staff to) many superior hotels - at a fraction of the price. It is situated on the main shopping street in Exeter, and quite literally 30 seconds walk to the historic cathedral or restaurants like The Ivy.

Perfect location for visits to town centre or quay. The old part of the pub extremely charming. Room very warm even on a day with frost outside. Breakfast and dinner pretty good - excellent value for money. Car parking cheap by Exeter standards - another plus - allowed to stay in car park until 2pm. Overall our stay was good value.
