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.

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.

It's a very big city with a lot of history.

It's a very big city with a lot of history. Lots of eating places and good pubs. A very good central point for visiting coastal resorts and places around Dartmoor. We were a bit disappointed with some of the riverside walks. The traffic system near to the property was grim and difficult to avoid; this might put us off staying in Exeter again.

The White Hart is in a great location to explore Exeter city centre, The Quay area and to visit Sandy Park to watch Exeter Chiefs. The Hotel is on the shuttle bus route which an extra bonus. The car par is also excellent value for money at £5.00 for our 24 hour stay. The hotel is like a 3D maze trying to find your room after an evening out, adds to the fun of the stay!!

Staff were very friendly and could not do enough, they gave us interconnecting rooms although I had forgotten to ask, which was amazingly helpful. Room was spacious and clean and kids beds were comfortable. The hotel is slap bang in the middle of the city centre so within walking distance of everything including the Cathedral and some of the best restaurants.

This hotel is worth the money, the location is convenient, very close to Exeter train station and the town centre. The host is very kind and the cleanliness perfect. The room is not very big but got everything for a short stay.
