Very Georgian
Pros:

Very good service my room was clean ,comfortable and spacious. There is a bar which closes at 10pm so does reception, you can come and go as you please. There is a library and seating areas for you to relax the old style furniture really takes you back in time the property overlooks a square and is close to amenities. The breakfast is lovely with a good choice and cooked to order I would recommend and stay again.

Pros:

Good area, friendly staff. The wifi was down, which was a shame. The room could best be described as 'quirky' - it was a garret converted from the loft. But the main thing was the heat - it was a hot day and the room was like a furnace all night. The open window and the desk fan made no difference. Heat rises, I guess, but it was so hot I was ill all next day. Bear that in mind when booking: avoid the top floor on a hot day.

Quirky hotel, poor value in graduation week
Pros:

Our stay in Exeter coincided with Graduation Week. Hence hotel prices throughout the city were raised to exorbitant levels. The price we paid at Queens Court was definitely not good value for money. On arrival we were told that the wifi was not working but they were attempting to get this fixed. We were offered free breakfast as compensation. The wifi was working again the following day. We had booked a deluxe room - the room was OK, bed comfortable, excellent shower but the size and layout of the room did not justify the description deluxe. Decoration throughout the public areas of the hotel was smart but rather quirky. Breakfast was good and the staff were helpful and friendly. In summary - an OK stay in a rather eccentric hotel but definitely not good value for money in this university graduation week.

A happy trip to Exeter
Pros:

The hotel staff were very friendly and welcoming, the room was comfortable, and the breakfast excellent. I would be happy to stay again. The hotel is conveniently situated for both railway stations and for the Cathedral.

Pros:

So hot in the basement room that we could not sleep. We opened the window to try and help, but sadly could only hear the air conditioner unit running, alas none of the cold air was coming into our room. Noise from the kitchen staff in the morning did not help either.
The room location is poor.
