Hotel was in centre of Exeter, above a great pub (The Turks Head). Would definitely stay here again if returning to Exeter.

Emma, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It was nice, until closinf at 1am you could hear people, but given the location thats unsurprising in the middle of town
Oscar, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A really characterful pub right in the centre of Exeter, with lovely rooms above, all staff were friendly and the place was very clean. I would definitely stay again.

Madeleine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful city centre location. Limited interaction with the staff but the person who checked me in a showed me to my room was great.
Peter, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Exeter's high street offers just about everything that mortal man could conceivably desire: pubs, cafes, outdoor clothing shops, shoe shops, a cathedral, banks, bookshops, homeless people, record shops, Turkish barbers. The staff of the Turk's Head were consummate professionals: the one who showed me up to my room offered to carry my suitcase, gave me a tour of the premises, and recommended their favourite ice cream shop.

Great place to stay

It was very nice and clean, great place to stay in Exeter right in the centre on the high street

10/10 Exceptional

Beautifully furnished old room up several small flights of stairs (not easily accessible for some). Recently refurbished old pub in a really central location near the Cathedral. Staff were amazing - managing to make us tea & coffee when there was a power cut! Would definitely reommend.

A little slice of history

Fantastic little gem, in a beautiful historic building. Staff worked incredibly hard to welcome me and make my stay a pleasant one. Would definitely stay here again if I need to visit Exeter
1-night trip

6/10 Good

Rooms are quite nicely appointed but they are on top of a very noisy pub in the city center. I wouldn’t stay there if I wasn’t with a man.
Ashley, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Rooms are lovely and staff are great but the noise at night is terrible. Granted you are provided with ear plugs but upgrading windows to cancel out noise from the terrace would be ideal. Otherwise a nice stay
Ashleigh Louise, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely room. Would definitely like to stay here again. Right in the city centre, lovely pub as well.
Greg, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Bucket list item complete

Bucket list stay above an old pub. The room had lots of personality complete with crooked floors and funky tiling in the bathroom. Required a good hike up steep and narrow stairs, but staff willingly carted my luggage up and down for me. Attentive crew and flexible with storing my luggage after check out. Not for someone looking for ultra modern - this is a very old building, which is part of the appeal. Beside a popular part of town, expect noise. The pub itself was great, excellent service, pints and food.
Troy, 2-night trip

Lovely rooms and staff. Food was really good too. Nice easy place to stay and great location

8/10 Very good

Very good central location. No dedicated check in so had to wait at the busy pub bar. Staff very helpful.

A quirky find in Exeter

What a fabulous, quirky venue. We’ve booked and going back in October. Staff absolutely lovely, especially Anna. My tip is don’t book room 2 if you like to sleep with the window open, but otherwise all just lovely and near the train station too
Carol, 1-night trip

A great night and what a great pub downstairs with a microbrewery!!!!!

This accommodation was above and beyond what I’d expected, the best value for money room I’ve ever come across.
