We took advantage of a bargain deal through Travelzoo, including one night bed and breakfast, 3-course dinner and two free cocktails. We were allocated a standard family room on the second floor and whilst not luxurious, it was spacious and comfortable, and represented excellent value for what we had paid. We had eaten before at their 1812 restaurant, and the... More

Stayed here on a business trip. The staff were friendly and efficient. Nadia the receptionist is absolutely stunning. The rooms are clean and a good size. The bars and restaurant are great. Excellent location.

have stayed here numerous times, and have found it clean, but the rooms fairly basic. I have eaten here, and the food was good. most of the staff are good - night porter a little miserable. the bar has a good atmosphere normally. decent value for money

We were at a New Year's Eve party on Bournemouth pier and wanted a decent hotel within easy walking distance for the night - we certainly got that with the Royal Exeter - from the easy, private, plentiful parking, the bonus of having a smoking room that was brilliantly huge and well equipped with a double aspect view, a decent,...
