I would highly recommend this hotel.
The staff are extremely courteous, professional and helpful, nothing seemed too much trouble if it helped to make your stay mire pleasant.
The hotel had bags of character and charm and the room on the second floor (218) was spacious and clean with an extremely comfortable bed.
The breakfast was fabulous, there was plenty of choice and the cooked breakfast was made with quality produce.
All in all I would definately recommend this hotel as it is fantastic value for money and the fees for the rooms are obviously ploughed back into the hotel as everything is so high quality.
The fact that the hotel is 2 minutes from the beach and convention centre is the icy on this fabulous cake.

Our family group stayed at the hotel, and we all enjoyed the hotel facilities. The rooms were all extremely comfortable with no noise from nearby bars. The breakfast and evening meal was also excellant. We found all the staff helpful, and the hotel is also well located with on-site parking. In addition the 1812 bar also provided a good place for getting together for a drink.

My husband and I stayed at the Royal Exeter Hotel, and I have to say that I was obviously in a different hotel to the last person who reviewed. I don't think that the hotel is worn, the 1812 coctail bar and restaurant is lovely and our room was great, the bed was huge and very comfortable. The staff in the bar were second to none and the food in the restaurant excellent. As for the breakfast, with so much to choose from, I'm astounded that anyone could find fault.

I'm not sure also how a hotel can be judged by what surrounds it, but considering the hotel is 2 minutes from the beach and 2 minutes from the BIC, the location is perfect.

Thanks to all of the staff at the hotel, we had a great time.

This review may sound very picky but this hotel didn't come up to the mark.

A good location spoiled by the grotty kebab shop and chip bar around the corner. The hotel has seen better days and the staff were pretty disinterested. There was ashow on in the Conference Centre over the road on the night that we stayed and as a result we could not use the bar and didn't get much sleep either due to the noise.

The breaksfast was not very apertising, swimming in grease.
