Located approximately a 25-minute stroll from the accredited public Bill Douglas Cinema Museum, the 4-star Hotel Du Vin Exeter boasts a wellness area with body scrub, pedicure, and manicure. Boasting an indoor pool, this Exeter hotel is nestled within a few blocks of natural attractions like the public park "Northernhay Gardens".

Location

The centre of Exeter can be reached in 10 minutes' walk of the hotel, and such cultural venues as the local history museum "Tucker's Hall. The Guild of Weavers" are only 1.1 km away. Guests can visit Bull Meadow Park, which is nearly a 5-minute stroll away, and the hulking red-brick Royal Albert Memorial Museum which is around 900 metres from the Du Vin Exeter.

Guests might as well visit Rougemont Gardens, which is 950 metres away. The accommodation is situated in the vicinity of Queen Street, and Exeter and Coach bus station lies just a 10-minute walk away.

Exeter St Thomas station is merely 0.9 km from the Du Vin.

Some of the air-conditioned rooms have an adjoining terrace and a kitchenette, and such facilities as cable channels, along with tea/coffee making equipment. For your safety, these air-conditioned rooms are appointed with a laptop safe. Offering a separate toilet and a shower, the bathrooms are fitted with shower caps and towels.

Eat & Drink

Hotel Du Vin Exeter is just steps from Cosy Club Exeter.

“The carefully refurbished building blends Victorian character with modern touches, placing it conveniently near Exeter Cathedral. I appreciate the REN Spa and heated outdoor pool, though some may find rooms compact given the historic structure. With its focus on local ingredients in the bistro, the hotel emphasizes a tailored experience for both leisure and business.”

Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Hotel Du Vin Exeter is often praised for its beautiful and spacious rooms, some even featuring an extra bath. The swimming pool and well-kept garden add to the appeal, while the hotel's convenient central location and on-site parking (though pre-booking is needed and it costs £20 a night) are frequently mentioned as highlights. Some guests have found the dinner options disappointing, particularly with the availability of certain meat dishes. However, the good breakfast and the option to book spa treatments help ensure an enjoyable stay.

I found the reception staff amazing. breakfast staff were attentive as well. I felt very well looked after. staff were accommodating concerning my son's allergies, going above and beyond to check everything was safe.
Parking was very limited. Public parking close by proved expensive.

unavailable dishes cool steak
The dinner I had was disappointing. The main course meat dishes were mostly unavailable. I chose the "chateaubriand" with a surcharge, though the plates were warm and became cold quickly. The steak was cool, and the dessert was over-microwaved. On checkout, I refused to pay the parking fee because there was no sign of the "complimentary glass of champagne" promised.

underwhelming experience

cramped bathroom slow service
the breakfast was decent enough, with a reasonable variety of options.
my 'beautiful room' felt more like a standard shoebox. the bathroom was so cramped the towel rail practically sat in the sink. the shower controls being miles away from the showerhead was a comedy of errors. the slow service at the bistro made dinner drag on forever.
