    The location is superb and the combination of the more modern part of the building for rooms with the atmospheric historic Inn and dining area is great, The restaurant had a good selection of meals and the breakfast was just what was needed for a wintery day too. The staff were friendly and helpful.

    This is a place I visit because it is a historic inn, giving a sense of cultural continuity with our collective history. I like old artifacts, prints, bottles, earthenware etc.

    Excellent accessible room extremely clean, and comfortable large bed. When disabled space was slightly blocked by a van on our arrival staff got the vehicle moved immediately. Breakfast was also great. This is our first time using a Toby innkeeper We will be making another booking in the future

    Our host was friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable and the room spacious. We had a sea and harbour view from our windows. A good selection to eat at breakfast, and a short walk to two really nice Inns to dine out in the evening. There is a bar at the guest house to get a drink in the evening. A pleasant and comfortable stay, thank you Maddi

    I like to stay at the innkeepers collection when I visit Exeter as its so easy to get to and handy for the town centre..Sometimes the price per night is a bit pricey so I book when there's a good deal on to coincide with my next visit.
