Stayed for 3 nights staff good room on the small side it was the bathroom that was really small and smelt of urine I didn’t help the at the windows didn’t open at all. I accept it’s a lovely old building but it needs a lot spending on it to bring it up to Hotel Du van standards.

first time to Exeter. My wife and I stayed for a week at the hotel Du Vin . Stunningly, beautiful hotel,. Fantastic location near the Cathedral. Unfortunately we were so busy, we did not have a chance to fully enjoy the pool and the spa. I would highly recommend the hotel.Particularly for those who are looking for a hotel that’s quiet at night. A special thank you to Will at the front desk. And Ben for making sure everything was great.

We treated ourselves to a little bit more luxury than we usually would as we were staying in Exeter for two days of motorcycle training. Having ridden down from South Wales, the hotel was a real treat to stay at. The room was clean and well equipped, the staff were friendly and welcoming, and for two motorcycles, parking was no issue at all. The outdoor pool was heated and absolutely wonderful. I love open water swimming, so this was right up my street, with the bonus of a jacuzzi in the enclosed part of the pool.
The quilt and pillows were feather, which I'm not a fan of, so I requested non-feather pillows, which were brought to the room within moments. Great service, but the pillows were rubbish. However, I like a firm, substantial pillow, so that's simply a personal choice; I can't fault the hotel for providing what I asked for.
The breakfast was excellent, and the choice of whiskies and tequilas in the bar was very good.
Having never been to Exeter before, I'd definitely go back. The cathedral is beautiful, the local walks through the historic town are gorgeous, and we found an amazing Moroccan restaurant nearby, El Farida, which, for me as a vegetarian, had a great choice

I really wanted to give 5 stars for this lovely hotel, but unfortunately it was let down by the breakfast service. We rang and pre booked a parking space and so we were delighted to see our name on a stand reserving a space for us. Great service. Check in staff were also lovely and helpful. We booked a classic room and it was good enough for one night. The ensuite bathroom had a bath with shower attachment over. The step up into the bath was very high, and being only 5 foot 2” I had to get my husband to help me safely in and out. A grab rail of some sort would have been handy. The bed was really comfortable and two pillows each were plump and clean.
The breakfast. We came down for 9am and there were several tables waiting to be cleared. The lady that sat us had to clean a table for us. She took our cooked order of one full English and 2 soft boiled eggs with toast. The help yourselves cereal bar was okay, not huge, typical of a hotel set up. For such an expensive hotel I was surprised we had to help ourselves to coffee and tea. We waited for our cooked food for more than 30 minutes. We saw a plate of breakfast waiting to be brought out that sat there for more than 5 minutes. Not ours thankfully. When ours did arrive the eggs were hard boiled not soft. As breakfast is £24.50 each this is not good value for money. I would stay at this hotel again but skip paying for breakfast and go out for it.

The staff were helpful and friendly. The history of the hotel is interesting as it is a former WW1 Hospital. That said it is dated for that same reason. We did not eat ar the restaurant so no review there but we found the bar very blah. Its more of a counter with alcohol. They have very limited parking but there is a pay public car park nearby. We found most of the sites to be within walking distance byt as far as pubs, shopping, or restaurants in the immediate area there really isn't anything. The hitel is fine for a night if you are on a road trip but if you are looking for several nights I would probably pick someplace else

Our deluxe room felt more like a bunker in the basement. Really not what we expected for the price.
The bathroom in the room had no door, offering absolutely no privacy.
To top things off, my partner suffered food poisoning.
Avoid.

We stayed for one night and had a mixed experience. Unfortunately, the heating in the room wasn’t working when we arrived, but when we reported it to reception they were helpful and quickly provided a portable heater, which warmed the bedroom well enough.

There was a noticeable amount of mould present in the bathroom, which isn’t something you expect at this price point. The layout of the bath/shower also means there is a window and windowsill within, so water splashes directly onto the sill and blinds when showering. Combined with the mould and the flaking paint around the window, it made the bathroom feel quite run down and in need of maintenance.

On the positive side, the bed, pillows and duvet were extremely comfortable and we slept very well. The curtains also did a great job of blocking out the light.

Overall, the stay was comfortable enough for one night, but given the price and the expectations that come with a Hotel du Vin, the room felt a little tired and not quite worth the cost. It has the feel of a luxury hotel, but one that could benefit from some maintenance and updating. Toby on reception was very friendly and helpful.

We so enjoyed our stay at the elegant Hotel du Vin. It surpassed our expectations. The staff at reception were welcoming and friendly, in fact all the staff we spoke to were very helpful. We had a beautiful room with a high ceiling and tall windows, looking onto the garden. It was spotlessly clean. We were happy we had booked parking as it was so nice to arrive at the hotel and find a space at the front of the hotel with our name on it! I loved swimming in the outdoor heated pool - such a treat in January! A lovely stay, thank you, and we plan to return.

Lovely hotel but 2 things which weren’t perfect was that the air con was pretty ineffective so we ended it opening windows which was then very noisy! Also there was no hot water when my husband showered! We did alert the hotel about this & they assured us they would get maintenance to check it. However, this is the 3rd time staying at their hotel & the atmosphere is lovely & being an old hospital, the building is superb with lots of historical features. Staff are also very good.

Downgraded on check-in (even though Platinum Hotels.com status) given free breakfast to make up for it. Poached eggs overcooked. Staff generally seemed confused at check in.

Sent an email asking if wanted car parking to which i said yes, but guess this was not sent from hotel as no reservation made. Overhead over people checking in who also thought they had requested car parking but not provided.

Having been pushed repeatedly before arrival to use the online registration, it was clear why. We had to wait 5 minutes at an otherwise empty reception whilst the receptionist at check-in figured out how to use the new system. Overall the hotel felt tired and below the standards that I’d normally expect from this brand. The room was dark and poorly designed. Disappointing experience overall. Positives were that dinner was enjoyable and the wine excellent.

Disappointing

The smallest, pokiest room we have ever experienced at any of the hotels within the HdV collection - despite it being a Deluxe category. No safe in the room. Very little space to place clothes. Impossible to open the bathroom door if someone was sitting at the desk/dressing table (crazy!).
We booked for lunch in the bistro, which was supposed to be a treat on our son's graduation day. The food was good but the restaurant was almost empty and therefore lacking atmosphere. Despite the lack of diners, service was very slow and we had to chase some items that we had ordered at the start.
Overall a very disappointing experience and bad value for money; not what we expect (and have experienced) at Hotel du Vin in previous years.

The staff were helpful, Aircon was broken and there were no people availabke to fix during our stay, there was musshed food in the stair carpet which was there when we arrived and was still there when we left ! we could see a lift or would have avoided the stairs as it had tools and poles and trolleys with broken glass and dirty dishes on . so Everytime we went back to our room it wasnt pleasant to walk passed . its a shame as the hotel was nicely decorated and clean apart from this BIG Dirty stair well which we had no choice but to use to get to our room ! Our room was ment to be a twin bed as me and my 17 year old were booked to share but there was no available so we had to share. it was unbelievabley hot and very little sleep was got . The man on reception did apologise for the aircon and gave a discount . I didnt have the heart to tell him about the mess as well . x
