Holiday Inn Express Exeter East by IHG

Holiday Inn Express Exeter East by IHG

8/10 Good
"Booked a twin room but told they were full on arrival so we were upgraded to the family room. Love that it was literally near the entrance on ground floor. Only downside to the room as the pull out sofa bed dipped so my daughter was sleeping in a downward tiltwd position and the room had a musty smell to it. Aside from that, food was great and handy to a restaurant on site. Also other eateries nearby too. Was fine for a nights stay."

"Lovely hotel, great rooms and such comfy beds. It was a warm night and the air con was very good. I’ve stayed here a few times now and the only reason I’ve not given 5 stars is that I’m starting to notice a few minor maintenance issues creeping in such as some mould in the shower that hasn’t been cleaned. Apart from that though very much recommended and I look forward to my next visit, 🙂"

8/10 Good
"The whole place is spotless and really well run by kind and helpful staff who were very attentive the whole time. Being in an old building, the amenities were not the best, the room had a very sloped floor, which made me feel a little seasick! And the bed tilted because of this, I had to prop something under my mattress so that I didn’t roll out of bed in the night! I had a lovely bath but equally due to the slope it felt like the water would tip out if too full! My room was right next to the lift so I could hear that lots of times but it wasn’t too disturbing in the night with the sound of the fan which I switched on in the room. The dinner was absolutely delicious, I was really impressed, and 10% off for guests staying . Breakfast was not so good, the cooked breakfast was not very appealing (lumpy scrambled eggs, dry hard bacon) and the buffet breast options were very limited, but it didn’t dampen my stay too much. The staff were really so lovely. All in all, it is a lovely hotel and I’d probably return but might request a room that doesn’t slope/isn’t right next to the lift!!"
