My expensive (£150) room was tiny and cramped. There was no wardrobe and I had to hang my suite shirt etc on wall hooks. The washbasin was in the bedroom and had no shelf for toileteries. The room was nicely furnished. The service was okay, mediocre for the price. The food was poncy. I didn't understand what half the stuff on the menu was. Not because it was French or something but because of the use of silly words. The food itself was okay. However avoid the home made baked beans at breakfast which are sickly. Overall I felt the hotel was poor value for money. The owners have spent a lot on furnishings but overlooked the basics. I did offer feedback at reception and the girl looked uninterested so don't expect much change.

Excellent Meal at a very reasonable price. Staff were excellent and service very good. A great addition to the Exeter eating scene

I went here for lunch with my parents to celebrate my Dad's birthday and it was perfect for such an occasion. (I have been here before with friends in the evening too, where maybe it was a little stiff and formal, though the bar is delightful). It was a lively lunchtime service, they were busy, but the staff were great - friendly and attentive without being obsequious. The food is good value for lunch - £19.00 for 3 courses - and my Dad was particularly delighted by the Exeter pudding. Portions are probably on the smallish side (if you like to chow down) but it was really lovely, fun experience. The only thing is that the restaurant can really get quite noisy. Probably not the place for a romantic tete a tete.

We have eaten here twice and also stopped by for drinks. The staff are very welcoming and attentive and the service is excellent. The atmosphere is great and we loved the decor. The food was good and well presented. The only comment is that I would like to see the menu changed more frequently - we were told it's only changed four times a year so if you plan to eat here regularly you'd soon run out of choices! The wine list offered a good range of reasonably priced wines as well as the more expensive ones.
