Great hotel in central Exeter
Pros:

Excellent welcoming hotel. The room was spotless and comfortable. Housekeeping even gave us a fridge!
The bar/restaurant staff were very friendly - we had dinner and it was very tasty.
The car parking opposite is easy to use. Short walk to the cathedral and the town centre.

Cons:

Nothing. Would definitely stay here again (and would try another Leonardo hotel elsewhere)

Für kurze Aufenthalte ok dank guter Lage
Pros:

Gute Lage, Öffentliches Parkhaus gegenüber. Zentrum fussläufig erreichbar.

Cons:

Zimmer etwas lieblos und in die Jahre gekommen, nicht wirklich sauber (staubig, teilweise Accessoires kaputt wie Abdeckung Drücker des Spülkastens), Bettlaken wurde trotz Blutfleck nicht gewechselt.
Restaurant klein, Frühstück überschaubar.

Cons:

The thermostat console on the wall wasn't very responsive. I had to press the on off button several times just to turn it off. It also emanates a glowing light which can be a bother at night.
