I recently stayed at the Hotel du Vin in Exeter and was drawn to the hotel’s charming blend of historic architecture and modern boutique style. The location is excellent—just a short walk from Exeter Cathedral and the quayside—making it very convenient for exploring the city. The room itself was stylish and comfortable, with a unique character that sets it apart from more generic hotels. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the attention to design detail gave the space a luxury feel. The staff were polite and helpful throughout my stay. However, I was disappointed by the lack of electric vehicle (EV) charging options on-site. As someone who travels with an EV, it was inconvenient to find no facilities available, especially given the increasing importance of sustainable travel and the hotel’s otherwise modern amenities. I had to search for charging points off-site, which was time-consuming and detracted from the experience. For a hotel of this calibre, I expected better provision for eco-conscious guests. The Bistro du Vin offered a delicious meal in a relaxed atmosphere, and I appreciated the outdoor pool and library spaces as lovely touches. But the EV issue left a sour note, and I would hesitate to return unless improvements are made in this area. Pros: • Beautiful, characterful rooms • Great central location • Lovely dining and leisure facilities Cons: • No on-site EV charging • Limited parking • Some rooms may feel dark due to design Would I recommend? Yes,

The hotel itself is an interesting and attractive building. The outdoor area at the back was very nice and peaceful with a beautiful white Wisteria. The staff at reception and the restaurant were very helpful, friendly and considerate. The location was convenient for us to explore the local area. We had a very lovely weekend

Bit disappointed

Not quite as nice as I was expecting. Room was a bit tired. I was also bitten by something in the night. I shared this with reception and did get an email to say they took such things very seriously, had experts that looked at such things and would be in touch, but I never heard from them again. Also the pool was closed but this wasn’t made clear before arrival.
