Exeter Court Hotel, hotel in Exeter

Just 15 minutes’ drive from Exeter International Airport, The Exeter Court Hotel offers modern rooms with spacious en suite facilities.

Quiet and comfortable just what we needed overnight prior to a holiday starting at Exeter airport which was just 9 mins away. Evening meal was very good as was the included breakfast. Car parking close to the accommodation but the rooms are to the rear so couldn’t hear others arriving or leaving. Convenient arrangements made for our arrival back for a further night after midnight.

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.

    WE booked for three, so we were given two bedrooms. Both rooms had a wonderful view of the city laid out over the hill. There was plenty of tea/coffee options in the room. The location of The Telstar is great, just a short walk from Exeter St David's and the city centre. It was also within walking distance of the University where we were headed. We opted for the breakfast which was wholesome and delicious! I quite liked their green initiatives. I would say our stay was cosier than if we had stayed at a hotel.

    Best hotel breakfast ever! Location perfect for walking into Exeter. Hotel is in a beautiful square of period properties. Free overnight parking in public car park immediately outside hotel entrance - metered charge from 0800 hours - very convenient! Numerous eating establishments within short walk - the hotel helpfully provides a list for those who need it. Would have absolutely book this hotel again if my wife and I were visiting this area. A perfect overnight stay! Highly recommended.

    My stay at the Depot was marvelous. Once I arrived, I was provided with shampoo and body gel bottles. Internet access was easily provided. What I would like to highlight is the excellent guest service provided by Mrs. Michael whose communication skills were exceptional and prompt. I highly recommend the depot for future visitors. The location is within the high street and city centre. I enjoyed my stay.

    This is a very basic hotel offering a comfortable bed a reasonable bathroom and little else. We didn’t meet anyone in the hotel. Entrance was via a key box. No food available. The main advantage is that it is in easy walking distance of Exeter airport and we had an early flight. So it met that particular need well and there were no comparable alternatives. Not somewhere to stay for more than one might

    Excellent city centre location. Rooms was well equipped - with nice touches. Very comfortable bed and super clean room. It is s above a pub and on the main thoroughfare in Exeter so some noise from the street to be expected. Value for money for city centre room was excellent. We used a local overnight city centre car park which was safe and reasonably priced.
