Exeter Court Hotel

Locations: Excellent, easy access to coastal resorts and Exeter with park and ride close by.
Hotel: Reception impressive, Bar/TV room comfortable, Restaurant lacked atmosphere (probably due to lack of guests)
Rooms: Small but adequate, for short stay, would have been nice to have the shower/shampoo replaced daily.
Restaurant: Breakfast very good, although could not get used to being asked to help yourself to cereal and juice and as soon as you sat down they bought out your hot breakfast. Continental Breakfast was lacking in variety, not cheese/ham, fresh rolls.
Evening Meal: The chef obviously knew his trade as we had steak the first night that was done to perfection but it would have been even better if served on a hot plate as before we were half way through the meal steak was cold. The same the next night, had the chicken and again served on a cold plate. Starters and Deserts were great.
The last night we decided to eat in the Bar, very good selection and the food came out on hot plates.

I have stayed at the Exeter Court Hotel once before which was again for a business trip and I would certainly return. The staff, room, bar and restaurant were all excellent. I ate mainly in the bar and found the food very acceptable and I had one meal in the restaurant with a work colleague which was delicious.
I have no complaints at all and look forward to my next visit. Many thanks to the staff for making my trip so enjoyable.

DISGUSTING - BEWARE OF FOOD POISONING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We booked to stay as a surprise for my fiancee as it was his birthday. We stayed for two nights with his parents and our 9 month old baby. The room was lovely. On the small side but was clean and everything was there which you would expect.
On the wednesday evening we had a meal in the hotel and had two extra guests join us. The meal was AWFUL, I would go as far as saying the worst I have ever attempted to eat. We had to wait for my fiancee's starter and it finally came out 15 minutes after the rest of us. Four of us had Lamb shish kebab with mint yogurt for a stater. The main was dreadful. Mine was cold on arrival, with no veg served on scraggy lettuce, My mother-in-laws was Herb crusted rack of lamb which was just drenched in dried herbs not even cooked. Needless to say we complained about it on the night, and got offered a free dessert which nobody could face! My father-in-law got a cheese board with grapes on which were half rotten!!!!
The following day one of our party came down extremely ill, and then a few hours later 4 others of us were extremely poorly. We have never ever felt so bad, I was almost rushed to hospital. We were unable to care for our baby as we were so bad. Constantly throwing up for hours and hours on end and aching all over. Our food poisoning was confirmed by our GP. I would never ever go back to this place and would advise others the same.
The kitchen NEEDS shutting down to save others. On the night we ate there were two children eating, it's disgusting. I'm so grateful my baby was too small to eat here, she could have been very very poorly indeed.
Do not Eat here and definitely never consider your wedding here!

Excellent accommodation. I booked 7 rooms for our cricket club's annual tour and we were not disappointed.
I'd like to point out that the ages of our group were two early 20s, three in their 60s, two in the 50 bracket, and the other 7 between late 30s and early 40s. So no drunken louts.
We all agreed that the bar was a bit sterile and could have done with some real ales, but the friendly staff more than made up for that.
The staff throughout the hotel were courteous and helpful and we would certainly return here for another tour.
