Top Kenton Hotel Reviews

White Hart, Exeter by Marston's Inns

8/10 Good

"Basic double was fine. Everything we needed. Great location and plenty of breakfast options in town. Historic property so expect winding stairs and tight corners that comes with character. Only niggle was the heat of the room - but a fan was provided for the room if wanted. Great to have a parking option too in the middle of Exeter. Would stay again."

Exeter Rougemont hotel by Sunday

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived very early to get a parking space as parking is difficult otherwise. We were checked on later by a friendly receptionist who double checked our car registration ans showed us she'd entered it correctly on the computer. She asked if we wanted to book breakfast but we didn't. When she handed us the key we were surprised to find it was exactly the same room as the one we'd stayed in last week. Again it was clean, and spacious with a nice shower. Lovely building and very situated for all amenities"

The Grand Hotel

8/10 Good

"Lovely family friendly hotel. Only down sides upon arrival we were asked to pay a deposit per night for potential damages even though we had fully paid in advance of our stay. This wasn't mentioned when booking and we were told we couldn't check in until we made the payment. Hotel was noisy at night as we were on the second floor and had people above us, below us and all around. The fire doors in the corridors slam constantly through the night with people returning to their rooms at all hours. We had an adjoining door in our room which just had a bolt on it which went into someone else's hotel room which worried me when travelling alone with a young child and wasn't mentioned upon booking. We had noisy people in the next room with young children who kept trying to open the adjoining door. Unfortunately the indoor pool , changing rooms and spa facilities were unavailable during our stay due to refurbishment. They do not have enough sun loungers around the pool and people fill the ones available with towels to save them hours before they swim. breakfast was great with a good choice of pastries, cereal, fruit and hot food. My daughter loved the outdoor pool. The staff were all friendly and helpful. We loved it is a dog friendly hotel. In a great location right by the beach and a lovely park. We enjoyed the walk down the pier, shops and restaurants. There's a lovely library area in the hotel and we also had a safe inside the wardrobe in our room. We would stay again."

Mercure Exeter Southgate Hotel

4/10 Poor

"Positives - location perfect for exploring Exeter and The Quay. Bathroom was nice and more recently refurbished. Carpark was straightforward but you pay. Bar man very helpful, went out of his way to find some peppermint tea, very grateful. Staff were friendly but no one explained about the £10 pp charge to swim… we were simply told we could use the leisure facilities while we stayed. It was cheap but a poor choice - no sleep, bedroom and communal areas tired. Bed had no mattress protector, one thin sheet straight on to an old lumpy mattress. This is surely not good practice, made me feel really icky, couldn’t settle and was meant to be a rare night to ourselves as a couple! Would really suggest investing in new beds, toppers or at the absolute least please use mattress protectors!! We booked on the basis of the proximity to Exeter and the pool, but we didn’t see the small print about £10 pp to use it. We didn’t bother for a £20 swim as the reviews of the pool were not great either! I would have rather paid more for the room to include the swim and mattress protector!! We didn’t have breakfast, everything seems to be an additional charge. Had a beautiful breakfast by the quay, 5 min walk, better value with a view. If you are not fussy where you sleep and want no frills, central location then it may suit, otherwise I would not recommend!"
