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

The contemporary Holiday Inn Express Exeter East offers great value accommodation with inclusive breakfast and free WiFi, all in a convenient location to explore the beautiful countryside of Devon.

There were a lot of Germans in the hotel who liked their coffee and because of this caused the coffee machine to break and then made reception take over. Lazy young man at breakfast wiped table and didn't wring cloth out i had to dry before we could eat at it. No white bread ,when i asked young girl for some she never came back to me. At dinner the night before we ordered sticky toffee pudding paid for it, then was told none left ! when we all showered the air conditioning machine leaked all over the floor .... this is the worse one i have ever stayed in !!!!!

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 is a lovely place , however, if driiving it is a nightmare lots of one way streets nowhere to stop if lost , almost no on street parking (unless a payment machine is there ) this is especially frustrating if visiting the royal hospital as the car park cannot cope , and all the surrounding roads are double yellow lines , many people driving around in circles missing appointments and getting angry.

    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.

    I spend three nights at the Holiday Inn Express - Exeter and seldom have I experienced such a service-orientated and friendly group of hotel staff, without expection. For me, the location was perfect, just next to the river, not too far from the centre of town. Breakfast was good with a variety of English fare, and most importantly, the coffee was excellent. Even when I remained in my room til late morning, the cleaning service took care that everything was immaculate for the next evening. I'll be back!

    Very good continental breakfast, would have been better if there were boiled eggs, croissants, sliced cold meats, and cheese. That would make it 100% continental. Location good, outside city centre. Fresh looking bedroom decor. Lovely soft headboard. Was lucky with parking, space for 3 cars, we got in. Good shower. Room very clean, shower room spotless. Hostess very helpful with directions.

    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.

    The hotel was in a perfect location near the city centre and the University where we were visiting our daughter. The staff were really friendly and the food was great. This is a real value for money hotel and it’s the second time we have stayed there. I would recommend it and certainly be staying there on our next visit to Exeter.

    The hotel has good parking and is located right on a main road going into Exeter and therefore can be a bit noisy from traffic. It's about a 10 minute walk to the Quay and 15 to the town centre. My room was a tiny single but adequate for my needs.
