I recently stayed at the Turks Head in Exeter, and it was an amazing experience! They went above and beyond by upgrading our room, making our stay feel extra special. The room was comfortable, stylish, and had everything we needed. Laura was fantastic – she was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure every detail of our stay was perfect. The entire team was friendly, and the service was outstanding. I’d highly recommend the Turks Head for anyone looking for a memorable stay in Exeter!

The Victorian plumbing made showering an interesting experience :)

I chose this hotel as I stayed here before back in March 2024, and loved it. This time around I had a smaller room since there was just me and I was traveling without my husband. The room was still excellent and comfortable, just smaller. Was not facing the street this time, so it was a little quieter which was nice. Check-in and check-out was easy and the staff kind and helpful.

My only disappointment was that there was a Nespresso coffee machine in my room, but no Nespresso cups were provided so I could not use it ☹️ I had kind of been looking forward to that yummy coffee too!

The room was nice and clean, had an ironing board and iron, coffee maker etc Bed was clean and comfortable and cute little touches like a card welcoming us. Free WiFi etc Staff were super friendly and welcoming when I arrived to check in.

The location is ideal for being out in the city centre, however obviously with that comes the noise of a high street. It wasn't unbearable but certainly not the quietest location if you're looking for peace and quiet (we werent) The room was very warm, even with the fan provided because of the type of windows and location they don't open much to let in a breeze. Air con or a bigger fan would be ideal.

What a fantastic hotel!!!! Everything about this stay was perfect, I cannot fault anything 😍 Easy check-in, super friendly staff, lovely touches like earplugs, eye mask, handwritten note, a Nespresso coffeemaker in the room, plenty of tea, great heating, fabulous hot shower, comfy bed, lovely environment and decor, historical significance, quaintly sloping floors 🙂, well situated in town, good value for money, pub downstairs with microbrews - brilliant!!!!

There was not one thing I disliked. Perfect score for this hotel. Wow.

We absolutely loved how the room was decorated, super quirky, spacious and comfortable. Bed and bedding was lovely, tea and coffee was all high quality and the bathroom and soaps were all gorgeous too. The pub downstairs was quirky and full of history and the staff were really friendly. The location was perfect too.

The only thing I could say is that we asked for a spare throw and some more milk but didn’t get any, but we didn’t need it in the end and if we’d asked again I’m sure they would of sorted it for us. It can be a little loud too at night but the ear plugs provided resolved that issue.

Great location 3 blocks from Exeter Central train station, and easy walk to many meal and visitor options. Great staff in Pub with excellent cask and keg options. Room had everything you might need, with Nespresso large pod coffee maker, and water kettle. All updated and many charging options in room. The pub held onto our bags while we explored the cathedral and phoned for our taxi as we left - so helpful.

Our rooms (we had two) were up 3 & 4 flights of stairs, which is not unexpected but quite the challenge with luggage. Earplugs were provided due to an abundance of noise-our evening it was provided by yelling humans until far into the night - the kind of thing that cannot be controlled by the management.

Room was stunningly clean, decor was cosy and bed was so comfy. I would 100% stay here again the value for money was exceptional. Staff were accommodating to a later checkout and also looking after our bags before check in/after check out while we were looking around the city.

Only downside was that to get to the room there was very steep stairways which was a struggle with baggage on the way to checkout. Someone with accessibility issues may not be able to stay here but staff were very helpful with carrying bags for us. Other than that everything was perfect.

Great value, comfortable cosy room (not in a small way - surprised at the size of it!) with a Nespresso coffee machine and decent teas plus bottled water. Lovely Rituals toiletries, really comfortable bed, fab shower and a brilliant hairdryer. Also an iron and ironing board too. We liked that the rooms had a separate external entrance to the pub so we could come and go as we wanted. Staff helpful and friendly. Could not beat its position in the centre of Exeter. Our son has just moved down but no room to stay at his place so this will be our go-to stopover when we visit!

If I was being picky, I felt the bathroom could have been a little bit cleaner around the edges, but it certainly didn't ruin our stay!

Great location - rooms above a craft-brewery pub on one of the main streets of the city. Great shower. Comfy bed.

Rooms were surprisingly small and the windows in mine were sealed which (without aircon) wasn't great on a hot night. The setting and the olde-world vibe of the pub are so great that the rooms themselves are slightly underwhelming - but perfectly fine and functional and they have a GREAT shower. So, good for a short-stay where you are not going to be spending a lot of time in your room. Plus, of course, there's a cool bar downstairs.

I was unexpectedly upgraded from their cheapest room to a room with an ensuite, and shown around by a very friendly staff member. The room was very clean and nicely presented, the shower had great pressure and the coffee machine was a treat. The room was very comfortable with everything I needed while still keeping in character of the building. The rooms have a separate entrance from the bar so you needn't walk through it if you didn't want to but they do have an excellent selection of beer brewed on site....

The bathroom had a slight damp smell when I arrived, but it easily dissipated after I'd had the windows open for a few minutes. There was very minor noise from the street/bar but that's to be expected given it's location and they had provided ear plugs.
