Best thing about this place was the food—really good restaurant! Room was nice. We appreciated the nearby park and ride with s bus going into the town center (we didn’t want to drive there). So we were able to see the Cathedral area.

The walls are paper thin, hardly slept at all. The hotel doesn't have ear plugs to purchase. They do have most other things to buy.

As a regular visitor to the Devon Hotel, I have always found the staff helpful and friendly and nothing is ever a problem. The rooms themselves are clean, relatively modern and benefit from all the usual mod cons such as air conditioning, Sky TV etc. The hotel is quirky (not a bad thing) as the layout has many steps, sometimes these are even in the room, I feel like this adds character to the place. The fitness suite is adequate for most with some modern equipment. Carriages restaurant (connected to the hotel) serves a selection of great quality food and drink at reasonable prices, and there is usually something going on to give the place some atmosphere, also offers both Sky Sports and BT Sports for those wanting to catch their football team in action. I would have to really search for "negatives", but if I had to, It's a bit of a faff having to remember to ask for an iron and ironing board at reception as these are not in the room as standard, a complimentary bottle of water in the fridge wouldn't go a miss and there are currently some pretty major roadworks going on outside the hotel. Nonetheless, I would always choose the Devon Hotel over all other hotels in the Exeter area as it is great value for money and almost feels like a second home.

Exceeded my expectations a lot
Fantastic hotel, lovely room and great restaurant for dinner and breakfast. Only one slightly bizarre thing is that I wasn’t given a toilet roll! Asked at reception and was no issue but then housekeeping still didn’t replace a couple of days later! Not an issue necessarily but never experienced this before in all the hotels I’ve stayed in! Other than that superb!

Good place for a short stay
The reception staff were very helpful on arrival. The headboard was worn and little pieces of the brown pvc covering was flaking off onto the sheets. Also there were a few tiny flies in the room/bathroom. But the bed although small was very comfortable.
