Hotel in zona The Gibraltar Stone, Woodbury., Exeter

We arrived at Exeter by train to see a friend who lived there and had to look for an accessible hotel. On the Internet, we came across Hotel Indigo, the site of the former House of Fraser dept store. With my wife in a wheelchair, the reception staff showed us a step-free entrance, as the main entrance is approached with steps. The staff were very friendly and polite and treated us well. Our room was spacious, clean, and well-kept. My wife loved the bathroom with its chessboard floor tiling and marble sink surrounds. She was also impressed with the quaint tea cups. We turned down in-house breakfast, as we thought that £20 each every morning was exorbitant! That's £40 for the two of us, and for four mornings, breakfast alone would have set us back £160. However, while my wife was having an afternoon nap in our room, I went down to the basement for a two-hour spa session. This includes a bubble bath, steam room and sauna. The price for the spa for non-residents was £30, but by giving my room number, I paid £20. Booking is recommended. The hotel is a couple of minutes from the Cathedral, and although our window looked over the High Street, there was no overnight traffic noise. I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Exeter.

Very close to high street. Full cooked breakfast buffet has a lot of food choices. The breakfast room is a bit small and crowded, expected to wait and be seated after 8:30am (as there is a warm reminder at the lift lobby / reception desk) Free on-street parking outside hotel after 6pm until 9am (weekdays) / 11am (sundays and bank holidays), so it is not necessary to give car parking fee inside the hotel premises.

The hotel is an old building close to the centre of town. Great for shopping and visiting the surrounding areas. The parking was useful. The room was adequate. It could do with air conditioning.

La struttura è molto confortevole e calda, e si trova a pochi passi dalla stazione centrale di Exeter e dall'Università di Exeter al centro città. Rimango qui e consiglio molto questo hotel ai miei amici e agli altri che cercano di rimanere in Exeter Central.

One overnight stay on the way to Cornwall. The hotel is quirky. Loved the little touches like fresh coffee in the room and dvds to borrow and watch. Parking available which is rare in Exeter. Room was cute and the bed super comfy. I can't believe people are complaining on here about a shared bathroom. Do you people read the room descriptions? Loved the row of cinema seats on the 1st floor. Will be back. Thank-you.

We have been visiting The Fishermans Cot for many, many years, both eating and staying there at the hotel. It is in a superb & stunning location but it is now resting on its laurel's and has really become rundown. What on earth is Marsden Inns (the owners) doing in allowing this place go so downhill? It obviously lacks investment and a good manager. As soon as we arrived the place looked neglected and dirty. There were buckets on the main bar collecting drips from a leaking ceiling - not a good first impression. The bar was also cluttered with full dishwasher trays that remained there for the duration of our stay. The place was busy but I guess it was more passing trade because I cannot image them having any regular repeat, local trade. The menu is very mush standard 'Brakes” pub grub with no presentation or thrills. I had the burger, with bacon & cheese, despite asking for crispy bacon it came very rare, in fact one of the burgers was almost red raw in the middle. I mentioned to the waitress the coleslaw look stale and dried out and she relied 'oh thats what it looks like with the mayonnaise.' It was dried out and tasteless and I didn't eat it - the waitress didn't comment when she collected my plate. Really, she should have apologised and given me a fresh pot but by that stage I realised the two young staff on duty were obviously under pressure and either didn't care or couldn't be bothered. I really wished I had checked the food hygiene rating before I had eaten there. The whole place had a sticky, dirty feel and the damp in the ladies toilets had to be seen to be believed. The owners, Marstons Inns should be ashamed of themselves for letting this Devon landmark be so badly managed and fall into such disrepair. We love this place and really hope Marstons invest to turn it back to its past glory - both the building and service. Until they do, we definitely won't be returning.
