The staff receives high praise for being terrific, very professional, and helpful, even accommodating significant booking errors with exceptional service. The on-site Epoch restaurant is highly regarded.

The seasonal cocktails are also enjoyed. The experience is rounded out with a great continental breakfast, making the Exeter Inn a noteworthy choice for both lodging and dining.
Lovely and charming old hotel. Great restaurant with lively atmosphere. I personally hate cookie cutter chain, sanitized hotels so this was perfect - it's right in the center of Exeter - not in some industrial park on the side of a highway. Everyone who worked there was very nice. Updated bathrooms.

Gorgeous old building, interior is spotless & quaint. Staff was pleasant, accommodating. Our room was clean and beautifully furnished, bed was firm and comfortable. My only complaint is that the bathroom is chilly and there's only half of a shower door. Overall a great experience, thank you Exeter Inn staff!!
