Exeter Hotel

Exeter Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Stayed at the Urban Deluxe Twin Room and was upgraded to a corner room which was quiet and away from the main road. The room was very spacious and luxurious with all amenities provided. The only negative was the shower area had some mould on the tiles (perhaps require a bit more cleaning). The hotel is located only 3 mins walk to Bus Stop 4 Miðbakki which serves as a convenient and accessible departure point for day tours and airport pick-ups / drop-offs. It is also within 10-15 mins walking distance to the town centre and Rainbow Street. There is a restaurant at the hotel which we did not try and but did manage to get some good bagels and donuts from Deig Bakery located in the ground floor. I would totally recommend Exeter Hotel and if I return would definitely stay here again."
