Hotels near Springfield Holiday Park, Exeter

Great location. Rooms a little dated, with minimal housekeeping. Great stay nonetheless and staff were lovely.

We arrived at Exeter by train to see a friend who lived there and had to look for an accessible hotel. On the Internet, we came across Hotel Indigo, the site of the former House of Fraser dept store. With my wife in a wheelchair, the reception staff showed us a step-free entrance, as the main entrance is approached with steps. The staff were very friendly and polite and treated us well. Our room was spacious, clean, and well-kept. My wife loved the bathroom with its chessboard floor tiling and marble sink surrounds. She was also impressed with the quaint tea cups. We turned down in-house breakfast, as we thought that £20 each every morning was exorbitant! That's £40 for the two of us, and for four mornings, breakfast alone would have set us back £160. However, while my wife was having an afternoon nap in our room, I went down to the basement for a two-hour spa session. This includes a bubble bath, steam room and sauna. The price for the spa for non-residents was £30, but by giving my room number, I paid £20. Booking is recommended. The hotel is a couple of minutes from the Cathedral, and although our window looked over the High Street, there was no overnight traffic noise. I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Exeter.

I reviewed this hotel in December 2011, you can find it in the history. First things first. I am not a nit picking whinge screaming for the manager at the slightest issue. Far from it. But it really pains me to write this due to my stay. I work abroad now and a colleague and me were needed to be in Exeter and from 11 years ago thought of this hotel as ideal. How wrong can I have been and how deteriorated this place has become. Checkin ＞ Ok but staff obviously frustrated about the running around children and the noise, they were clearly embarrassed. 2 were kicking a football around the reception. Some mothers nearby didn't seem to even care. Room ＞ not at all good, worn out carpet, windows didn't open but for about 3 centimetres so it was very warm. Of course the AC was not working and i was told it was being looked into. Also no hangers in the cupboards at all took an hour after asking for some to arrive. Reception / Bar ＞ very odd indeed, 2 same dressed gentlemen always looked you up and down when walking through. You are also on video, they kept talking on their walkitalki devices when they weren't smoking outside!!!!! Look at my pictures, whats going on in this place? Public area / corridors ＞ not nice. Food and glasses left outside rooms 24 hours, some rooms seem to have a drum and bass convention going on. Oh and the smell of those vape things was awful. Maybe thats why we had to evacuate at 0100 in the morning with a fire alarm. I heard the fire guys discussion on it being from someone vaping. Security ＞ For who? OK there was the 2 strange videoing guys in the bar area, but my keycard stopped working 4 times in 7 days. You just go the reception and they say ”ah yes it happens, whats the room number” THAT IS ALL! I had a written note in my room one evening saying sorry to come in to the room but I left my HDMI connector in the room! Parking ＞ now its ridiculously expensive on what used to be included. Utter rip off. Its a ANPR system so beware. What i couldn't understand was that looking out of my widow there were 2 or 3 cars sometimes at night with people sleeping overnight in them. I checked the status on gov. website all no MOT or tax. Whats going on here? Overall a massive disappointment from 11 years ago and feel very sorry for the staff, they know whats going here and it shows in their manner Check out ＞ at last! But then i find 50 pounds of ”laundry” on my room, I asked to be removed. One night was over 200 pounds ”oh its just due to the system” Yeh right. Conclusion ＞ you are being taken for a ride here and I will take this with Accor the parent company. A shabby dirty hotel with a company with 2.2 billion in revenue and 10.7 billion in assets. An utter disgrace. I am requesting a massive / total refund. Thanks again to the staff, its obvious you are trying to make the best of an awful situation. Avoid. Sorry

Fantastic from the second we came in the door to the time we left. We could not fault anything lovely experience The rooms, bar and dining area are gorgeous, with every detail perfectly thought out. They’re cosy, stylish, and just a great place to relax The service staff were all excellent, very attentive and polite, the food was delicious and the cocktails were yummy! Special thanks to Nick for taking such good care of us and advising us on our trip to Greece. We'll definitely be back!

Having stayed at the Jury's Inn chain of hotels previously in other cities we decided to stay at the hotel when we visited Exeter. The hotel enjoys a great location and the facilities are ok but unfortunately the servicing leaves a lot to be desired. There is no mention of this anywhere on their website and you are not told at any stage when you book and you only find out once you have paid and visit your room. On entering your room you find a nicely laminated note from the management advising you that your rooms will not be serviced on short stays. The management are using the excuse of the Covid pandemic to save costs and avoid doing your beds, emptying your bins, changing your towels, replenishing your toilet paper and the complimentary tea/ coffee. This is now only provided on request.My previous experience of this chain of hotels was that you also had a small fridge in the room and you were provided with complimentary bottles of water, this is no longer the case. Effectively the client experience has been watered down yet the prices remain the same. The client experience received from the staff was inconsistent, some were great others were very unhelpful. The hotel is not cheap and based on their current offering way overpriced.
