We stayed sadly for just one night at the weekend. We had a lovely room very clean and very well presented. We were allowed to have our dog with us which was fantastic. Breakfast was fabulous, locally sourced and delicious. Lovely service and I would highly recommend staying here. More

We stayed 3 nights at Raffles. The owner and staff were very friendly, even though they had a lot of people staying. The owner recommended a couple of good places to eat in the evening which were close by. We had a very nice, newly decorated room and everything was spotless. Breakfasts were very good. Very central but quiet and... More

This is a lovely hotel situated in the centre of Exeter. We had a family room which was beautifully furnished with some lovely antiques. The en suite was a good size. The service was excellent and we were made to feel most welcome. As the hotel took dogs at a very reasonable price they had a very secure garden to... More

This beautiful Victorian house in Exeter is a real find - it has off-street parking AND it is in easy walking distance of the city centre. We stayed in autumn last year as a family with one child. The interior is charming (the owner has an antiques business) - so a bit mystified by the "dated" comments here. Victorian houses... More

Nice small hotel, victorian style where my wife and stayed when visiting our daughter at Exeter University. It is close to the city centre but the main advantage for us was that we were able to take our dogs. Rooms comfortable and clean and the full english breakfast was simply fantastic! Would certainly recommend. More

B & B close to Exeter Central Station and easy walking distance from city centre and the cathedral. Raffles's USP is the Victorian furniture in every room. On a very grey, misty November day, this created a rather gloomy ambience. I could understand why for much of the 20th Century Victorian architecture and design was seen as "overdone" and even...

We chose this b & b due to it's 15 minute walk to the cathedral where we needed to be each day for seven days. Our walk each day passed by several excellent restaurants to and from the cathedral and our hosts recommended several other places to dine. Our room was comfortable and clean. Breakfast was very good and included... More

the b&b was very easy to find and close to the centre. The family running the the b&b were very friendly and welcoming. The room could have done with some updating, however the bed was comfortable. More
