Top Honiton Hotel Reviews

Exeter Court Hotel

Exeter Court Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"I always stay at the Exeter Court Hotel when I visit the city. Straight off the motorway, easy access, and parking with a petrol station opposite. The hotel is always clean and well presented, the food is lovely, breakfast is included, but dinner is reasonable. I highly recommend the salmon. The staff are always very pleasant and helpful and management now recognise me as a regular which is lovely. The rooms are always comfortable, and they also have extra facilities like an ironing board and fan beyond coffee and hairdryer. Easy to get to many places in Devon if you use this hotel as a base."

"Nice hotel with big rooms but poor lighting to do make up and nowhere in the bathroom to put down a wash bag or make up bag … glass shelf too narrow! Exquisite food. Thank you"

Hotel Du Vin Exeter

Hotel Du Vin Exeter

8/10 Good
"The room was lovely and the offer of a free drink in the bar in exchange for no housekeeping is clever. Such a good idea. Unfortunately the wedding in the hotel on Saturday night dominated all the communal areas of the hotel which meant that we couldn’t have the nightcap in the bar we were hoping for, as well as there being the thumping of the music from the wedding in our room until well after 11pm. Had we known yet the bar area would be pretty much out of action to other guests we might have chosen to stay elsewhere."
