Hotel du Vin Exeter

Breakfast is fabulous fresh and eggs and croissants made perfect on the spot. Only thing is need more fruit no fruit. No gym ? Too cold to swim. Cosy room too small.

The heating in my room (108) didn't work (or I couldn't work out how to use it), but the bar lounge was really nice, and we were served particularly well by the breakfast bar lady and the barmen.

Functional, comfortable and pleasant. The staff were particularly welcoming and seem happy in their work; only too pleased to help. An excellent central location.

We had a great stay. Polite and helpful checking in, good location, good room, very good breakfast. Just wish there had been a separate shower as not good having a shower curtain wrapped round you in the bath.

Stayed in a Deluxe room but open plan tiny bathroom (no door off the room and separate toilet basically in a cupboard. Storage space is limited - wardrobe is tiny and there is no dressing table so you have to stand up to do hair and make-up. For the price not a very practical room.

A gorgeous hotel with really lovely staff, but unfortunately we had so many ******* with our suite that meant it was not the relaxing stay we had hoped for. It wasn't a great start when, upon walking into the bathroom, there was a piece of screwed up, dirty toilet tissue by the side of the toilet. This was followed by discovering that the fridge was out of order, there was a flickering light bulb that made one set of lights unusable, and the television by the bed had no working sound. We reported these issues and reception staff were helpful and said they would send someone to fix the TV and asked if we'd like the light bulb fixed too. Unfortunately the person sent to fix the TV was not able to do so. He arranged for the cocktails that we had ordered to be free of charge. We then ordered some room service and slightly misread the menu (the caveats were complicated). We had asked for a charcuterie and cheese board, but a cheese board (with blue cheese - not what we wanted) arrived. We called reception and the person that took the order explained that when she put our order through, the chef told her they weren't doing the charcuterie board yet. Unfortunately she had not called us back, so we ended up with something we didn't want. They kindly swapped it over for us, but it meant it was gone 21:00 by the time we ate. The bed was comfortable and room nicely decorated with a quaint theme. The breakfast was fantastic and the dining area really pleasant.

A fine old building ( once a hospital) with character throughout. We enjoyed The Junior suite with its very comfy bed and a massive bath to indulge in. We booked outdoor parking in front of the hotel, but there's a large car park next door anyway. Just a few minutes walk to centre of town and the impressive cathedral

Service & staff excellent. Location easy to get into Exeter city centre either by walking or taxi.

Having stayed previously, we were impressed with the redecoration of the public areas! Staff were friendly, helpful and attentive.
